Think this through before dismissing it Ask yourself what police response times are where you live, and how police are likely to approach you. Contrast with someone living in a very different situation than your own.

But what good is it if a Black person uses his personal weapon to defend himself from someone threatening their lives, and the police SWAT team arrives and decides the original victim is the who is the threat? Guns weren't much use in the Tulsa race massacre.
@AlphaCentauri @voltronic The money spend on policing is much too high. That will go to social housing. For the poor.
Yeah, it's perverse. Taxpayers don't want to fund anything but police, so every other thing that goes wrong in the city becomes the cops' problem.
@AkomoCombine @voltronic
Underfunded schools with large classes and no nurses or counselors? Have cops in schools to deal with discipline. Mentally ill people whose families can't deal with them? Put them in prison. Insurance companies want to make sure their policyholders don't file fraudulent claims? Have cops fill out paperwork on property crimes they'll never actually investigate.
@AlphaCentauri No police needed in schools. We dont here in canada.Being an officer is only for a certain individual who can enforce the law but also talk. Its been done before.
Might as well honest streak everything.
Need the info.
