This is exactly how we should be framing police budgets. They're getting half your city's budget, what does that mean for everything else? Infrastructure, schools, social services - show the real cost of runaway police budgets. prismreports.org/2026/02/11/fl #police #abolition #DefundThePolice

@GraphicMatt

Hey!

Be fair!

They need that big budget increase to investigate themselves for corruption and extortion! Surely that latest scandal can't be all of it?

"Toronto police Chief Myron Demkiw tries to restore faith after corruption bombshell"

Toronto police say that the latest arrests of 10 cops over murders, intimidation and corruption shouldn't make us lose confidence in the police because it could happen to anybody, such as radio show hosts.

As if somehow 10 radio hosts would be arrested on such a wide range of crimes that required access to police databases.

If LAW ENFORCEMENT is not going to do their job of ENFORCING THE LAW, then they’re obviously in the wrong profession and shouldn’t be collecting a paycheck. Fire their asses. #ThatWasEasy #Insubordination #RuleOfLaw #ACAB #DefundThePolice #AbolishIce

ABOLIRE LA POLIZIA
La polizia, a parte difendere le classi dirigenti, svolge qualche funzione che possa essere considerata utile alla società ? Un interessante opuscolo realizzato dai movimenti USA ci permette di sviluppare l'argomento, particolarmente attuale in questa fase in

@nullagent and some of us have not forgotten what happened to George Floyd by MPD's hands....and the police brutality happening overall across the country!!!

Everyone who vilifies #DefundThePolice refuse to admit that having that funding redirected toward having more social workers and having social programs would make the city safer instead of bloating the police budget....

Why London’s lowest murder rate in more than a decade is drawing attention

The police claim credit, even though they are recently out of special measures for poor performance

"Some of the results claimed (for non-police violence reduction programs) are staggering. Placing youth workers in police custody centres and talking to people as they faced charges had a 90% success rate in diverting them from further offending within 12 months of the intervention."

We do want to spend less on police though, right? Reduce their funding
and repurpose it for better outcomes?
"Defund" was clear until it was twisted by insincere folks ... I worry the
choice of words is never going to matter.

People who thought "Drill Baby Drill" was sound policy suddenly
became scholars writing manifestos how "Black Lives Matter" was
somehow actually a terrorist assault on white people. They're going to
twist the meaning no matter what and I learned a long time ago not to
police Black peoples' words.

The race card isn't what you think it is. Defund was as much the
manifestation of white leftists as anyone. Do you know who I never
fucking heard spouting Defund horseshit. Black folk who live in the most
vulnerable communities in my city, the ones that endured the highest
rates of violence in ...

... modern history in 2022 and who -- as much as they hated policing abuses
and corruption and overreach -- also said time and again that they were
being ignored by police, that when people were shot down the shooters
stayed on the corners. They wanted the shooters gone. Over the next two
years ...

... police and prosecutors doubled the number of those convicted for
murder, shootings and gun violations and in 2025, the homicide rate
was 40 percent of what it was in 2022 and the lowest for my city since
1977. Defund that? No. The difference between the 330 dead in 2022
and the 133 killed ....

... last year isn't measured in white ideologues who live elsewhere,
but in people from West and East Baltimore, Pimlico and Cherry Hill
where the bloodletting was ongoing. Do they want to be brutalized
or overpoliced by cops, no. Do they want policing defunded? No
fucking way. And they say so.

Meanwhile, police and prosecutors achieved what they did over
the last years while LOWERING the overall arrest rate in
Baltimore to a bare minimum -- the least number of arrests in
modern history. Meaning, they focused on violence and
achieved what they did. That's actual reform, not sloganeering ...
