I can't believe you actually want to do this again lol https://madison.com/ct/news/local/govt-and-politics/activists-want-to-defund-how-do-other-countries- curb-police-excesses/article_363c1712-f8e7-52ce-85cf-394e786e35a1.html America spends far less on social programs than most of the 37 advanced countries that make up the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development. But it spends more per capita on policing than any other country except Luxembourg, and at 5.3% the U.S. ranks first in spending as a percent of total government expenditures. And American police officers are significantly less trained than their counterparts in other nations, and way more likely to use force, all too often with deadly results. So yes, it's already a closed case proven by other countries that we can reduce police spending if we also reroute the funds to improved social programs. Thats not arguing against anything I said, literally at all. Here, lets try to get back on topic before you start moving the goalposts like you usually do.

Though white Americans (67%) and Republicans (84%) were much more likely to oppose the movement, only 28% of Black Americans and 34% of Democrats were in favor of it. poll from last year --- https://imgur.com/Scl5rwX https://imgur.com/Fjgt7Qq https://imgur.com/NidhAni https://imgur.com/IGIbQPk <cite>Samurontai posted [p:956835115] in Twitter to...
