Refreshing conversation. Something deeply resonates with me and the defund police conversation. 1 month before I graduated summa cum laude from my university, I was stopped by 3 police officers and beaten to unconsciousness just 1 block from my home, in my neighborhood. In Court, the judge ruled in my favor and I was found not guilty for the trumped up charges of resisting arrest, etc but there was no restitution or reprimand for what happened to me. I'm a white middle class male and believe we should absolutely put our local funds into community programs that bring people together. The police don't need more funding; they need an overhaul of tactics, mission statements, and purpose.
This is why we must keep on fighting for police accountability. I look forward to young legislators like Jasmine Crockett, Maxwell Frost, Jamal Bowman, Cori Bush, et al to write and pass laws making cops personally responsible for their behavior when they're out of line.
