    1; defund the police is about taking all of their funding away it's about pulling off the extra funding for things like tanks and armored trip carriers that have no legitimate use in normal policing. as well as taking away police responsibility over things like homelessness and mental health and giving all of that funding to other areas of government.

    Yes they have for several years they use extra money in their budgets to buy military surplus such as tanks and armored troop carriers I've literally seen videos of them serving warrants by just running a tank through someone's door

    Of course, the authoritarian politicians could pick on them and get away with it.

    One has to consider "coincidence" and- probability.
    What are the odds that such ideas pop up all at once around the country, driven by identical behavioral footprints- spontaneously?
    What are the odds that MSM's panels and announcers would all use identical new buzzwords on the same evening, spontaneously? All claim arsonist rioters are peaceful protestors, spontaneously?
    What are the odds that pallets of bricks to throw at police or windows and other riot supplies would be stashed in several riot cities in advance of riots- in the right location, at the right time- spontaneously?

    Of course these things aren't accidental or coincidence.
    The odds are about the same as your flipping a nickel into the air, and having it land standing on edge five times in a row.
    The list of such things is very long, and all benefit the same underlying purpose, benefiting the same cause and people.
