AOC’s Facts Hurt Police Union’s Feelings

When we say defund the police, we mean: Instead of giving money to cops who have been trained to respond to every situation as if it requires a life or death response, give the money to mental health institutions so they can do wellness checks and mental health crisis intervention. Invest the money for traffic cameras so that failure 2 stop and speeding tickets are handled by mailing a ticket 2 the car owner. Invest in programs that provide food & shelter for the homeless. In other words use cops 4 what they are trained for instead of using them as a catch all for every under funded segment of society.
