Minneapolis City Council Members Warn Their Plans To Dismantle The Police Are Threatened By ‘Rank And File’ Officers
Two members of the Minneapolis City Council who led the push to defund the city’s police department gave an interview yesterday in which they tried to backtrack on “defund the police” language while maintaining that they still want to “dismantle” the force. But council members Steve Fletcher and Phillipe Cunningham warned that their new public safety vision was still threatened by “rank and file” officers who haven’t embraced the same goals.

Maybe try NOT charging them with murder for doing what you trained them to do.

More money for training? Sure. We can always use better tools no matter who we are or what job we are doing. But police have a very difficult job and deal with the absolute worst humanity has to offer.

Defunding the police is the exact opposite of what Obama’s chosen police reform expert says is necessary. This is the definition of government doing “something” even if that something is naive at best and intentionally destructive at worst.

So the rank and file haven't embraced the goal of having their derrière hanging out in the breeze? Clever to have figured that out...

When one of these lowlife counsel folks call 911 for help, and no response, they will change there tune!

I thought they had taxpayer-funded private bodyguards.
