i'm always shocked crime isn't always way worse than it always is for this country
with the amount of economic disparity, the amount of guns in this country, the amount of mental health issues and people with them that don't get help cause it isn't funded to provide help, the amount of places with not enough cops and then the places with just a bunch of bad cops too
it's absolutely amazing things aren't always worse
but i mean, a real critical thinker is pretty much saying a bunch of people wanting funding for police departments to be spread out differently to combat certain things and calling it "defund the police"
made cops just stop doing their job to prove a point that they need them and their excessive force
i guess
cause saying it changed when some people wanted to "defund the police" makes no sense
since, practically, no one actually did "defund the police" and police budgets only went up.
