The other thing to keep in mind about the "defund the police," slogan is that most other countries cops do their jobs with way less than half the funding that US cops get. They also don't have the largest and best equipped military in the world just handing them old equipment, from weapons, to body armor, to armored vehicles. US cops are a racket specifically designed to bleed the taxpayer dry, and waste as much money as possible.
