[quote=Anonymous]Defund the police does not mean abolish law enforcement. It means allocate resources to those best suited to do the job. As many have noted, police officers are not paramedics or social workers. We should not be asking police to do those jobs.

Needing them for some things does not mean giving them free rein to do whatever they want absent accountability. Every one of us does our jobs within established norms. If we stray, we get fired.

Also, if cops are so great, why don't you think they are capable of behaving more intelligently and humanely? Why do you insult them with these assumptions that their jobs are too hard to do well? Why can't the "vast majority" who are good check the ones who aren't? Unless maybe there are more bad ones than good ones, hmmm...

Train them better. Model and expect compassion. Hold them to higher standards. Root out the ones that make the rest look bad, if indeed it's only a few. Stop defending their worst behavior. Then we can talk. [/quote]
