Defund the police is some made propaganda to distract people from holding killer cops accountable for the their action and violence towards black people..
How does refunding them stop them from killing black people and violence towards black people.

if these dudes was fired like the civilian sector, all that shyt would end imo,,,,,, if we did the same shyt at work , we would be fired and in prison, and no longer able to pass backgrounds checks to get hired again


glad you are okay op !!

You're confusing the issues. Defunding the police means rerouting the money they waste buying weapons and gear they don't use fund education and programs that reduce crime.

It isn't meant to just be a direct response or solution to police violence. The point is to reduce crime thus eliminating the over policing of impoverished communities.

Yeah, but when the cities hire lax and “progressive” DA’s that deliver virtually zero consequences to many criminals (places like SF, Chicago, Portland and NYC have), then what’s the point of making arrests?

Arrest someone and they’re out two days later? Why waste my time? They’ll be out causing more chaos tomorrow anyway.

People keep looking at this shyt at the surface level. It’s much deeper. Judges, law enforcement, attorneys, politicians, organizations. They all play a part.
They prosecute people that shoot. So the question is if the cops are fully funded right now then why aren't those 3 maniacs in custody?

What would increasing the police budget have done in this situation? Sorry you went through that but your prompt doesn’t make sense.
It wouldn't have done anything, OP is emotional right now. Rightfully so, but it wouldn't have done much in that neighborhood.

Sorry you had to go through that.

When my neighbors got into a dispute and started shooting inside their house and outside, moments after my lady and kids left, I grabbed my tool and went hunting.

Police can't stop people from being dumb and doing dumb things, don't know why people think that's a resolution of some kind

I posted about it

It's goin down right in front of my crib.

My girl just left and I thought I heard a single shot. I was like nah. Then 3 minutes later "pop pop pop pop pop pop pop"

I'm like "Oh shyt!!!!" I grab a tool and my police scanner and run outside. Silence. Look up and down my block, nobody's running or yellin. Then a truck comes speeding pass me.
I hop in my whip to chase it down but cause fukk it :manny:

My damn tank on E. I didn't see which way it turned on the main road. I go one way and circle back around. He coulda hopped on the interstate or went toward some projects.

Police are currently staged outside my front lawn. I can't even get out my driveway.

They pulled some white boys out this crib and one black/mixed dude.

Black dude is barking, you can hear him up and down the block. I'm sittin here with something serious hoping he don't get choked out. I think he's calm. He's just yellin and cussin a lot.


I'm tooled up. I'm ready to ride. This punk ass white boy in the back of the cop car is/was staring me down while I'm in the front yard. I'm war ready. Be ready and you don't have to get ready.

No.

I don't know what happened. Like 48hrs after that incident the house was vacant. It was a rental so I'm assuming whoever was living there was evicted. I run/jog around my block all the time, mornings when I'm off or maybe mid day, evenings generally. I see the neighbors all the time, know a majority of them, even the ones on the other blocks because I run the same route, see the same people walking/jogging, walking their dogs....nobody has any beef.

Don't get me wrong, I live next to some racist and dumb ass white people, but nobody around me beefs with each other.

That shooting was a one time incident, nobody was even hit, the people that live there had some friends over or whatever and they started arguing and started shooting, inside the house then outside. Other than that, I can leave my house doors unlocked, cars unlocked, hell I've forgotten to close the garage door many times. All my expensive bikes are in the garage. The cops killed someone in their house which is directly behind me, my backyard is their backyard. About 5 miles from me some can killed 2-5 people at a restaurant, walked in and started dumping.

Other than that it's halal. shyt I've set up my camping tent in the backyard and slept outside.

People pop off or do shyt, you gotta be ready to do something about it.

Police solve just 2% of all major crimes

Published: August 20, 2020 1.18pm BST

As Americans across the nation protest police violence, people have begun to call for cuts or changes in public spending on police. But neither these nor other proposed reforms address a key problem with solving crimes.

My recent review of 50 years of national crime data confirms that, as police report, they don’t solve most serious crimes in America. But the real statistics are worse than police data show. In the U.S. it’s rare that a crime report leads to police arresting a suspect who is then convicted of the crime.

The data show that consistently over the decades, fewer than half of serious crimes are reported to police. Few, if any arrests are made in those cases.
In reality, about 11% of all serious crimes result in an arrest, and about 2% end in a conviction. Therefore, the number of people police hold accountable for crimes – what I call the “criminal accountability” rate – is very low.

Many crimes aren’t reported​

Police can only work on solving crimes they are aware of, and can only report statistics about their work based on criminal behavior they know about. But there is a huge slice of crime police never find out about.

By comparing surveys of the public with police reports, it’s clear that less than half of serious violent felonies – crimes like aggravated assault and burglary – ever get reported to the police.

Real arrest rates​

In 2018, the rate of arrest for serious felony crimes reported to police was about 22%. But because twice as many crimes happen as the police are told about, the arrest rate for all crimes that happened was half what police reported – just 11%.

Real conviction rates​

The official percentage of serious crimes where a person is actually convicted is even lower, though data is hard to confirm. The Bureau of Justice Statistics has not reported national conviction rates for serious crimes since 2006 – but in that year, out of all serious crimes reported to the police, only 4.1% of cases ended with an individual convicted in the wake of a reported crime.

Again, taking into account the fact that twice as many crimes happen, the national conviction rate in 2006 was actually closer to 2%.

Resolving crimes without arrests​

There are ways police resolve conflicts and crimes without arresting people – for instance, by mediating neighborhood disputes and directing wayward young people to social services and community programs. But so long as police departments measure success by arrests, that won’t happen more widely.

When considering approaches to police reform, it’s important to remember that Americans still don’t report about half of major crimes – and police don’t solve very many of the cases that do get reported. Truly improving policing will require addressing these two gaps.
