But the point is that defunding the police doesn't fuck over the guy making the budget, he gets to keep his job. It fucks over all the guys in blue with badges who are out there on the beat.

You think policing is bad now, think how bad it will be when all the good, competent officers are forced to find a different profession because it no longer pays enough. The only people left will be those at the bottom of the barrel.

Money isn't the problem. Accountability is the problem. On a fundamental level I agree with all the grievances of the defund the police crowd. Their diagnosis is largely correct, but their prescribed cure is not.
