Defund the police doesnt mean take away all their money. It means diverting money to programs like education, youth groups, health care etc. to help the community and lower crime etc.
what memphis said above! it just means allocating some of the millions of dollars that clearly aren’t being used properly into other services that can overall better society
Most people generally don’t understand the budgeting that goes on in police departments anyways, on either side. They’re essentially trying to get people to look at it, while getting swept away by the mob cheering to defund so they default to that particular verbiage.
