Cities that have supported “defund the police” and have cut budgets from their police are now reversing their decision due to crime spikes. Thoughts?

Who would’ve thought?

✔️Cut budgets
✔️Defund police
✔️Give some legitimacy to rioters and the vocal minority of anti-police supporters

Oh, more crime? Murders? Robberies? Assaults? Batteries?

Why is this happening? 🤨🧐😶😐😑

Virtue signaling gone amok—1000%
Political correctness gone amok—1000%
Political tribalism gone amok—1000%

What kind of people thought defunding or even worse getting rid of police would make things better? I can tell you, not smart ones, not even close to be smart. ALL cities are run by some kind of criminal organization. By getting rid of police, they basically gave a golden key to those criminals and criminals said Thank You Very Much you idiots, now you will get EXACTLY what you have asked and demanded, and that is more crime, A lot more crime. I say leave those cities the way they are, let them be a Perfect example for the rest of the nation so they can see, learn and remember what happens when you get rid of cities civilian security.

Yeah! Ain't that somethin'? When it was Trump OFFERING to help out, they flat out refused to take it!! Now that sleepy, creepy, mumbling pres. Poopy-pants is in charge, they WANT the help!! Funny how those same guys whose help they refused to take last year are now perfectly fine with having them come help out!! If I was in charge of those forces, I'd tell those fuckers to go pound salt!! My guys OFFERED to help you out last year and you told them to fuck off!! Now, you WANT their help so, we're telling YOU to fuck off!! YOU created this mess yourself, YOU clean it up, you think you're so fucking much better than Trump was!!!

Surprisingly, no one on the left is confessing "Oh, man!!! What dumb fucks we were!"

Those cities are having a hard time getting police to come back. No police should go back to those cities at all. They continue to elect democrats that support criminals so let them live with the criminals they support so much. The best part is when the democrat politicians that wanted to defund the police become victims of crime themselves.

Natural Law.

Look it up.

The police are not there to 'enforce' anything.

They are an expression of natural law. That is what they need to remember.

Treat everyone with respect. But...

If the police defy natural law they have abandoned their purpose.

If they don't turn around either the cities will experience massive emigration (some already have lol) or there will be "Community Defense Forces" that appear.

No other option.

I'm pretty sure we're living in the prequel to the Robocop timeline. Yeah, I know; they got the year wrong in the original movies. But we're still living in it.

No cities have cut their police budgets. And yet crime keeps rising even in red cities 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

Who else but stupid liberals would think defunding police and no bail would reduce crime

[Avicenna]

Incessant completely predictable. I also wonder what happened to their insurance rates

[Shiningtempest]

Politicians who supported defunding the police should pay the full price of cutting budgets for police departments.
