Yeah, not advocating ripping government down. Just getting police to be professional and actually work for the betterment of society rather than being a part of the problem.
gotcha. I just dont think it stops there( i dont think you do either).
there are alot of intertwined messages being tossed around because so many things need fixing and some things are tied to other things which then are connected to other things, etc
it, to me, is a very complicated snd delicate situation and all I'm saying is i dont think we can just dive into the deep end head first, or it all may unravel into chaos before we know it.
Police defunding is but a small portion of the larger problem.
I stil believe the core of the problem lies much deeper than the face of our police force and in defunding the police we are just putting a facelift on a larger evil. But simultaneously alerting and this allowing that evil to counter.
With that said, i can see where some feel they don't have a voice within a democratic system until they no longer feel oppressed, considering thier number one oppressor, they feel, is the police.
To me, the push to defund the police is trying to put a bandaid on a severed limb.
The movement should be within the political system snd get elected those who want and will instill a change.
Forced change through violence has never worked snd i don't see it working in the long run now.
To me, the movement would be much more stable and long lasting, if it were done within the system.
The founding principles of this country were not wrong, its just the founding fathers felt those principles were only for certain people. But when we take that away that disgusting prejudice and provide those principles to all, we are still the greatest country ever, for that reason.
No other country in history has ever put down any rights of the people until we did. Did they do it perfectly? No. But they were on the right track.
