'Murderapolis,' the city that became the center of the 'Defund the Police'

[Phantasmal]

No, prob. It's weird that people don't see the state government is there for a reason. You don't elect governors to sit on a throne, point and cities and just say, "clean up your act!". They provide funding and training.

It's similar to the water issues Jackson, MS is having. Trolls on this site think Jackson is like an island in the middle of nowhere. It's the CAPITOL of MS!

Anyway... just ranting.

It’s okay to rant, I was doing quite a bit of it earlier.

[Concart]

Agreed, it generally meant restructure.

Yep. But saying defund was just handing the idiots an issue they shouldn't have. Changing the duties and responsibilities of police departments is the goal. Fewer traffic stops, more community outreach. Sounds better than 'defund the police'

[LurchAddams]

Defund the police was an idiotic sound bite. Next?

Of course it is. I know a lot of people who vote Democrat like I do. None of us think reducing funding to law enforcement at any level is a good idea!

It sure did! I’d cringe every time I heard it replayed. I knew they’d run with it. All the no votes on bills by Trumpublicans, we know better now, which party doesn’t support police, first responders, etc.

Yesiree...








...it sure was. Just a "sound bite."

Fucking idiot...

St. Louis, MO. Population 334,000. Find a blue city the same size that’s worse.

Nice try but mayor Tishaura Jones is Democrat. The last Republican mayor was Aloys P. Kaufmann in 1945 Care to play again? BTW Thanks for proving my point.

He has a point that it was idiotic at least. That is the reason it appealed to idiots like him.

So you are a latino or White person? Good to know. If not you are dead wrong. Poor hideous devil spawn. Wrong again. Sorrrrrrrrry....

OK now go write 100 times on a chalk board "Blue cities are more violent than red cities."

[ExpressLane]

Ironic the violent crime is the highest in red states.

Because blue cities and high percentages of black populations make high crime rate in Red states..

[volsrock]

The state is responsible for maintaining law and order and security for the entire state. Cities are not islands in the middle of states.

State Trooper Duties & Responsibilities

First and foremost, a state trooper is a law enforcement officer. Just like their counterparts in state and local police, state troopers are charged with enforcing laws and promoting public safety. The primary difference between a police officer and a state trooper is that a state trooper operates with a narrow jurisdiction – roadways.

The scope of their authority, on an ordinary basis, is limited to enforcing the traffic laws of interstate highways and state-owned roads for motorists.

Local Government

Municipalities generally take responsibility for parks and recreation services, police and fire departments,
