It's not about having zero cops. It's about spending money in a smarter way to reduce crime by addressing the root cause.
Murders are down nationwide. R...
Police using their excess funding to suppress free speech. #defundPolice #ACAB
Once again asking people to stop imagining that police are essential to maintaining peace or safety in our #transportation system. They are not going to side with you if a driver chooses to assault you with their vehicle. They probably won't even find your car if it gets stolen. They definitely don't prevent crime.
For some examples of change, see https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-interactive/2025/may/24/defund-police-movement-austin-seattle
This statement says it all:
โIf spending money on policing were an effective way to deter crime, then the United States would be the safest country on the planet that has ever existed and it is nowhere near that,โ said Marcus Board, an associate professor of political science at Howard University.
It's easy to slip into despair about racism in our police departments, but M Adams and Miski Noor remind us how change comes slowly when it comes to entrenched doctrines and there has been progress in changing our police departments. We must keep up the pressure for change.

#Portland cops wanted to make an action movie. ๐ Yeah that's what it felt like when I was in it on a bike! How much does it cost to smash a few cop cars and why did they start chasing the van driver? #BikeTooter #ACAB #DefundPolice
This driver blew past me in the Naito bikeway, cop popped one or two of his tires with a spike strip, another cop drove even faster up the bikeway chasing him with sirens on. Fuckin wild west shit. Get some #bollards in here and make cops quit chasing people around with cars. #Portland #pdxBikes #trafficEngineering #BikeTooter #DefundPolice #BanCars #FuckCars

pick one and fight.
your elected official is lonely by the phone wondering what you're thinking.
The dirt is waiting for your attention.
fights: landlords, cops, bosses, agency erosion, and threats to starve out any progressive movement
