I am down with discussing that, and don't think that is a dangerous idea.I've made two or three rather large post in other threads about how defund the police could and should mean more than just reorganizing police departments. I don't want to be a broken record, but to me it also means asking the question as to whether we could achieve the same goal(s) more effectively with less policing and more social services and/or safety net programs? Are we properly allocating out budgetary resources appropriately or buying "too much policing" at the expense of something else? Did we cross a threshold where that next dollar spent is no longer buying much of anything a while back, and maybe worst is now counter productive? (Okay I'm starting to get into a roll so I'll quit before there are ten or twelve long posts on this.)
I know people could come up with some examples or quotes of people who basically want to do away with departments, which is what I was trying to relay in my post.
