Well sure, they’re too busy arresting people acting against the destruction of our planet and human rights, and otherwise oppressing the working class. That’s what they exist for.
No argument there - defund the police. The money is desperately needed elsewhere, places where it will actually benefit society like social services, health and especially mental health services, youth services, housing services and so on and so forth, even forensic services, who would actually solve crimes (which would be significantly reduced if peoples) instead of police poor communities and defend rich ones.
E: but that would never happen of course, because the state and those who are behind it need us hungry and tired and fighting with each other because it keeps us from turning on them.
They exist to prevent crime and to catch criminals.
Nobody suffers more at the hands of crime than the working class.
The rich are safe and sound in their gated communities and penthouses with private security. It’s the working class who have to deal with this sort of shit.

Right, and the police is the private security of the state, there to defend it and its interests (and those of the rich who actually call the shots, it isn’t private police arresting anti-oil protestors, in defence of the interests of the oil industry for example), not you and yours.
PLEASE tell me… How… HOW do cops “prevent” crime when they only show up AFTER a crime has been committed? It’s like you people never think about a damn thing you just parrot and parrot. Sad.

I just wish we weren’t the ones paying for it. If you’re gonna oppress do it on your own damn dime.
