The goal of defunding the police is to break the police union's grip on police departments, to destroy the thin blue line, to destroy the brotherhood that makes the police officers loyal to each other, to force out members of the union on a voluntary basis by making the departments hostile toward their own officers. Once decimated the city councils that are participating in this can install their own brand of police force loyal to them. That's what's going on. This isn't so much about taking your guns, because Katrina already proved that the good ole boys are just as eager to take your guns as the soy bois. This is about loyalties and control.

Honesty, breaking the cop unions is a good thing no matter who you are. Fuck those people I hope they die.

Unfortunately, the reasons the city councils of these cities are doing this has little to do with anything good for you.
