Woman calls 911:
"A man is trying to break into my house, he's big and is crazy, I fear I'm going to be raped, murdered, or kidnapped, send the police, hurry."
911:
"Sorry, there are no more police...I'll send over a social worker".
Defunding doesn't mean elimination of armed response police. You argue in bad faith: you pretend you didn't understand key points so you can caricature the other side's position. It's why some of us don't directly reply to your rhetorical points anymore.
I find the best response to bambutt's "rhetorical points" is generally, Yes, but you are a RACIST.
Watched a move the other night "the perfect man/guy" or something, starring the lovely Sanaa Lathan.
She [beautiful Black woman] was in a relationship with a handsome and very nice Black man, who after 9 years wouldn't commit to marriage and babies.
She waved him goodbye, and then met a handsome Black man in a bar/restaurant, He was charming and also very nice.
They dated a few times. Last time was when they stopped at a gas station, he went inside to buy something leaving her in the car alone. A White man appeared, drooling over the car, asking her what model it was, he asked her if he could take a photo of the car, she said it would be ok.
Next minute Black boyfriend appears and bashes the White man to a pulp and she and Black boyfriend drive off, she petrified by the snap and violence.
She broke off the romance, Black man became a stalker, her girlfriends told her to go to the police.
I said to them thru the tv; "Sorry, no police anymore, they've been 'cancelled'.
