DEFUND THE COPS

by Bob Walsh

Eric Garcetti is the Alcalde de el Pueblo De Los Angeles.  He is, for the nonce at least, proposing a 15% across the board cut in the funding of the LAPD and a shift of this funding to "the black community."  

Other elected officials hither and yon, mostly liberal democrats or self-described progressives or even democratic-socialists, are proposing totally defunding police departments and instead hiring "rapid response social workers" to deal with community issues.

Just what you want if you teenage daughter gets kidnapper by her psycho boyfriend or someone steals your car or beats your head in and steals your wallet.  What could possibly go wrong there.

EDITOR'S NOTE: I've dealt with a lot of social workers ... sissy social workers that is.   Rapid response social workers?  Ha Ha Ha.
