I've told you multiple times I'm not interested in reading your other replies. We're only half way through the year, so you expect us to believe the cops are out here murdering 2 innocent people everyday 🤣 Get outta here with your nonsense.

People die, accidents happen, and some shïtty people exist in every professio . But 99.999% of the time how you interact with the police will determine the outcome of the situation no matter what color your skin is.


Why aren't you out here protesting medical malpractice? Doctors kill wayyyyyyyyyyy more black people than police officers do.

if that many people are being shot to death by cops on accident wouldn’t that be worse though? that would just make cops look even shittier

there’s plenty of different struggles within the black community that BLM is trying to help fix, I haven’t been protesting against medical malpractice but I personally have been spreading awareness and donating to foundations that work to provide equal and proper medical care for black people

I'm done arguing with you, your double digit IQ is just to much for me.

That already kinda happens, listen to the police scanner for awhile. If you call 911 they are gonna send out police or EMS, yes. But the police will contact social workers, or give you a ride to the hospital if you're experiencing mental health problems. They will drop homeless people off at shelters. They will stop and give you a ride home if they see you out walking in the rain.

Overall the police are good peeps.

I dont have the statistics of how often this happens but even in Canada POC are getting brutalized by the police during wellness checks. So it must not be happening enough here, so I can only assume it's happening there too.

You questioned where I got my source from and implied that it was fake or “doesn’t exist” so I’ll gladly let you know where I got my info ☺️ my statistics and claims came from information I found from fbi.gov which is the official site of the U.S Government, U.S Department of Justice
-> https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u....016/tables/expanded-homicide-data-table-3.xls (this link shows 2016 statistics but there’s more pages that go by year)

and also from a website called statista.com that has information on people shot to death by cops, by race (2017-2020)
-> https://www.statista.com/statistics/585152/people-shot-to-death-by-us-police-by-race/

I try to do my best to look into the legitimacy of these sources but if there’s anything that I missed that would make either of these websites unreliable I'd be glad to hear 💓

Oh well thank you so much because all the stats in my previous post come from the same place just for 2018 because there is no 2019 statistics as of yet to be referenced lmao so theres that for your first one.

And the same for statista tbh😂 2013-2019 mainly because cop killings aren't really tracked by any official government page that i have found, its all independent.

So hou can just reference my previous post for why they wouldn't be reliable for any current debate. Not that they aren't relevant tho because it shows the progression or digression of crimes when you reference earlier years. 😋

Smh hundreds of police have already left their careers. They worked for that money for it to be taken away. Its ludicrous

Their choice to quit their jobs does not equal the government actually getting rid of police departments. For those that have made the choice to quit their jobs, there are more in the police academies that are preparing to join the police forces. An abolishment would forcibly remove all cops and cops-in-training from that job market. It would no longer exist. Individual cops making the choice to no longer be a cop, regardless of however many cops are making that choice, is not an abolishment.

Besides, you never answered my question. What would you do if you needed them and they didnt show? I didnt need your explanation of defunding the police.

I think @RoseMilkTea explained the point I was making perfectly in her reply above. I had answered your question, but more so in the way that your question was based on a misunderstanding of what defunding the police meant.

first thing that comes up:

if im an idiot then so is the Woodcock–Johnson Test of Cognitive Abilities 🥴

sure the median is 100 but even a double digit score of 90 is considered average so maybe pick a more specific insult- like a single digit IQ (;
 
The idea of IQ was made up by a guy (Alfred Binet) that believed in eugenics and set up IQ scores to weed out nonwhite people and disabled people. #BLM means moving on from the IQ scale as a valid determinant of intelligence.

(I know y'all just joking but the IQ test is used a lot in the justice system and it's just such a biased form of measurement that it has no valid place being presented in a courtroom.)

Randomly interjecting since I know a lot about IQs because of personal life reasons.

A common misunderstanding of the IQ system is that it should be used as a way to measure intellinge. The IQ only measures your ability to process and retain information. Having a high IQ does not mean that you are born intelligent the same way that having a low IQ doesn't mean that you're dumb. It all had to do with how you proccess and solve situations and problems. Another misconception, is that your IQ is permanent. Your IQ can drastically change while you're growing up and it only settles a bit around middle age, and the changes are afected by a magnitude of things, though its more normal for it to go down than up.

Fun fact, the educational system is made for, what they consider the average range, which is 100 - 115. Anyone else above or bellow that might have issues in school, especially if they arent given the right tools to help them stay in track.

Thank you for coming to my TedTalk. Please continue with your racial discussion now ✌🏻

Also #BlackLivesMatter

She explained defunding verses abolishing so answer your question.

Defunding means there are still police. You call 911 and depending on the type of situation they will route the appropriate people to you. If that means cops, then cops will come. If it means a mental health worker (wellness checks) then a mental health or social worker comes. As previously stated by @Muschi there would still be cops.

I never asked for a defintion of "defunding the police". Besides the fact that, its beyond ludicrous to do.

since when does choosing to leave your job result in the money you worked for being taken away?

They are leaving their jobs because of the funds being taken away amongst other reasons like no appreciation, the risks alone arent worth it anymore.Research it.
