[quote=Anonymous]No excuse for looting or rioting. But - police need top-to-bottom reform across the country. DC is way ahead of the curve on this and I’ve generally found MPD to be way more chill than PG, MoCo, or NoVA cops. That said, police need 100% independent oversight. No oversight by DAs who are reliant on cops. Special courts, IGs, and prosecutors to punish bad cops. I view “Defund the Police!” as a Trumpian negotiating position. We all know cops will remain. But by threatening to defund, you get the parties to compromise somewhere in the middle. Reallocate a portion of policing budget to mental health interventionist. I like it when my government bureaucrats don’t kill citizens.[/quote]
