There has been much discussion about the defund the police movement over the last year. Some major cities have already implemented defunding of their police departments. The first was Minneapolis where they cut $1.1 million from the police budget. New York City cut $1 billion from their police budget, Los Angeles cut $150 million and Seattle cut $23 million from their police budgets. Since then, a number of these cities have changed their stance and added funding back to the police agencies.
For this discussion, share your thoughts on defunding police and the consequences it might have. Research news stories on major cities that defunded and now refunded police and why it changed. Can some of the police duties be met using non-sworn, unarmed personnel? If so, for what situations? Do some research into Minneapolis, New York, Los Angeles, and Seattle to see what has happened in those cities since they defunded their police and include those results in this discussion.
