Ever notice that the more money we give police, the more the crime rate goes up?

Police do nothing to address the systemic root causes of crime. If we actually wanted to reduce crime we'd defund the police and use those resources to address those root causes

All that money spent to deal with problems AFTER they become problems. Its asinine.

Local police forces are just a way to backdoor unlimited funding for police at the cost of everything else.

I wonder how high my property taxes will escalate. FFS.

And that, times how many municipalities? Then the extra cost gets passed on to those municipalities once the ''govt'' decides to screw them over, again?

"If we want to enforce christo fascist laws we need a police force loyal to us and not the charter."
