The cat litter box story hit my neck of the woods been spreed by our neighbourhood Q Aron saying there was a litter box in one of the local schools in town. The chairperson of the school board had to send out a press release that it wasn’t true. On a radio interview about his upcoming retirement he told the interviewer that he would of never thought he would release a statement saying that there are no litter boxes in schools and with that note what a way to go out on your retirement. 😂

"Interesting" does NOT mean "correct" or "right" or "an authority"... It ONLY means "Interesting"... as in "inspires interest"... The truth is a LOT of callous, crude, stupid, and incendiary personalities are interesting. It's okay to think so. I wouldn't put much stock in a single syllable coming from them, but that doesn't mean they can't be interesting... I think of it like reading the comics page on a newspaper or a subscription to "The Onion". Regardless of the intent behind a story or it's delivery, I don't have to take it seriously to consider it interesting. Keep in measured doses, of course, and we can only do our best to fact-check or find "legitimately credible" sources for the things we WANT to know... BUT if his conversations with people is usually entertaining and interesting, so be it. Hell, Joe HIMSELF warns that "he's a f*ckin' idiot"... AND NOT to take him too seriously. He's a part-time stand-up comic FFS... I grew up with Sam Kinison, Dennis Leary, and nostalgic re-runs of Benny Hill. They were interesting, but I wouldn't exactly model my life to emulate them... ANY of them. ;o)

But in general during the day, I didn't see anyone running around with guns and killing people and setting fires etc. I'm sure people had camp fires, that happens at a lot of homeless camps and obviously homeless camps will spring up in places where they know they're not being moved on. I saw water stations where the market sets up near the park. We chalked on the ground a bit. I didn't see a single gun.

so Defund the Police has a great message but is horribly branded. when people say Defund The Police most people mean cut budgets to police departments for their para military gear and retrain them. then move that money to program for social programs instead of letting the police do them. so its just reducing police spending and opening up different departments so that the police arent stopping violent crimes as well as social situations that they arent really trained or qualified to really handle. so like have a department that does wellness checks on people if requested, can de escalate possible domestic issues, etc instead of police arriving and just escalating situations into violent situations because they dont have the training or degrees to be able to handle them. its a good thought but the name for that movement is horrible and easily misunderstood. doesnt help that people jumped on that bandwagon that actually wanted the police gone or people who just saw the name of the movement and wrote it off.

While "defund the police" is overly simplistic, it's worth mentioning that police budgets in the US are wild. Derek Chauvin was with the Minneapolis Police Department, and their 2023 budget is $195 million. There are a few issues we have with our police: 1. The bog budgets often end up being used for greater militarization (Makes us ask, why does my city have tanks?) 2. Police training is bad. Not poorly funded, but actively awful. Lots of cops are taught to prioritize themselves over literally anyone/everyone. 3. Cops are expected to do pretty much e everything from respond to murder scenes to asking homeless people not to block the sidewalk with their sleeping bags. The result is a violently trained, me-first wannabe army who is tasked with responding to someone dealing with a mental health crisis. What we want is to divide these budgets into more manageable departments. Let cops respond to violence, while other professionals deal with issues requiring less immediate force.

Under training comes from fact that there was a time too many applicants were failing out and claimed training was too difficult. So, what happens when that complaint if made about any set of standards? Those standards get lowered so anyone can be one. I live in the Sunshine State. One cannot go more than five minutes in any direction before coming across some sort of body of water or potential body of water after our normal rains - ditches, culverts, etc. Since knowing how to swim was too hard for some people, the requirement for an applicant to be able to do so has been removed. Even when they did have a swimming requirement in a police academy, it was laughable - again, because someone had complained it was too hard. Before it was repealed completely applicants had to be able to swim all of fifty meters in five minutes. So, yes, if you're in an accident here and your vehicle ends up with you somehow under water, the responding officer just might not know how to go into the water and render assistance. Hold your breath until the hose draggers get there.

The issues with US law enforcement are incredibly complicated, institutionalized & multifaceted but the TL;DR of the defund movement is that US police are grossly over funded & militarized with very little training, oversight & regulation while public services that would prevent many of the incidents police end up being involved in receive little to no funding at all. The idea is to take from the inflated police budgets & invest in public services like mental health services, rehabilitation, health care, education, etc.

As most cops will tell you their budgets are barely enough to stay operational, and although they always seem to get expensive, high-tech, military gear, its typically in select departmentsthat are managing their funding well, earmarked for special units like Swat, purchased as some sort of PR stunt, and in the case of MRAPs, given to them by DoD/Homeland Security for free as surplus. I think a lot of people are confusing all these things with "bloated police funding" when in reality its quite the opposite. If anything Police need more funding invested into hiring higher quality candidates, and higher quality cops. You are definitely correct about our other public services not getting enough funding either, and it always seems like way too much of the funding they do get is spend to high up in the organizational chart, i.e: Public School Administrators with little educational experience making 4-5 times what qualified, experienced educators make. I can understand being paid more for having exponentially more responsibility for like a Superintendent, but i think there's a lot of fat that could be trimmed and used more effectively elsewhere. But that is the rub for just about all of these problems - money isn't going where it needs to. So even if we defund the police, and pump that money into the school system or a mental health outreach program, it would be another trick entirely to make sure it doesn't get wasted along the way. Even if it doesn't get added to someone's annual bonus, it could still go towards buying unnecessary equipment or failed outreach campaigns, or whatever. Its not something we are going to sort out easily or quickly and just saying "defund the police" is potentially dangerous as well as not a viable solution.

@@schoolForAnts It's also all a completely moot point if the police don't have some sort of _external_ regulatory body that keeps it's officers in check and not only ensures they stay within the very laws they exist to enforce, but also has the power to actually _properly punish and hold to account_ those that break the laws or behave in a corrupt or racist manner. Said regulatory body needs to be above the various law enforcement agencies, and even above and outside political interference, so as not to be at risk of becoming corrupt itself or simply being influenced by those with political connections, individual power, money or threats of any kind. As anyone who has suffered from depression or addiction will tell you - the first step to dealing with and solving the problem is always _admitting there is a problem_ in the first place. This seems to be a step that the US cannot get past, since the police force itself and successive governments refuse to accept the simple fact that institutional racism and corruption DOES exist and IS a problem that needs to be dealt with. Here in the UK we too had _both_ of these issues, on a massive scale. It got so bad that by the 60s and 70s it was almost impossible for the police to actually do their job at all, barring the most heinous of crimes like serial killing and rape. Even multiple murderers were constantly getting off scot-free due to the levels of corruption in the force. And so we finally admitted our police had an issue, and set about to fix it with an external regulatory body. It was originally the Independent Police Complaints Commission or IPCC, but it recently got replaced by the Independent Office for Police Conduct or IOPC which had quite a few new powers that make it even more effective than its predecessor. Such as being able to open an investigation on it's own, without needing a complaint from an officer or member of the public being filed first. It also now has the power to investigate police chiefs, whereas before this was done by a separate body, and have the power to re-open previously closed cases should any new evidence arise (something the IPCC stupidly didn't have the power to do). One of the best things about the new watchdog is its ability to discipline officers even when their home force (or local department basically) disagrees with the findings and doesn't take any action against the officer itself. Not sure why a home force disagreeing overrides the IPCC conclusions in the first place, since this is essentially the same thing as the force interfering with and dictating how an investigation goes, but that is now a loophole that has been closed.

I’m not sure if Simon or any of the writers will see this but defunding the police is not at all unreasonable. I’m the US we spend so much on police that they would be the third largest military in the world ( after only China’s and our own ), and when you actually look into it it turns out that they do essentially nothing to prevent crime or promote public safety Even if that weren’t so, consistently across precincts only about 5% of what they do has anything to do with violent crime and even that is mostly after the fact and could be better addressed through other programs It’d actually be worth making a video on because the reality is quite surprising and counterintuitive

A quick clarification on the defund the police. Police budgets are actually massive. This is justified because police are supposed to fulfill several functions. The argument for defunding is that the money is used to fund services such as mental health intervention services which are called when the emergency involves someone who is unwell. This way people who are trained to deal with this sort of issue are the ones to handle it instead of police.

This. I used to work at a locked psych hospital where we were required to have police on staff. They were only allowed to intervene when a nurse turned the situation over to them (usually only when the patient somehow got ahold of a weapon). I handked many of these codes as a nurse and cannot remember many times anyone (staff or patient) got injured. The one time I saw the police handle a code, he broke the arm of a 74 year old man briskly walking toward the LOCKED exit by spearing him to the ground... as I was running toward them 40 feet away screaming, "I GOT THIS. DON'T TOUCH HIM!!!!" It has been over 10 years and it still makes my blood boil. The difference is all in how you assess a situation and best implement de-escalation techniques. So take some police money, give it to the mental health professionals to respond to mental health crisis situations. Sure, police can be back-up, but they clearly aren't trained to handle the mental health population in crisis.

The point of refund the police is that they do many that ngs they shouldn't. And that the rot is so deep there is no fixing it. If there is a little bad spot on the outside of your potato, you just just cut it off and the rest is fine. But if the center is all mushy black nastyness, the whole thing needs to go. And that is exactly what American police are, a rotting potato all the way through. There is no fixing it. They cover stuff there is no reason to have armed people involved in. There are instances where that is needed. But not in most cases. No one says we don't need something like the police for some situations. But it isn't needed like we use them. And a far better way to fix the problems would be to use the wasted money the police take on other programs. Social workers and mental health. Community watches where they are basically cops, but only from the area they are serving. And not like a big area, but like local neighborhoods and the like. Programs to help alleviate poverty, the number one cause of crime. Community centers for kids and even adults to give people things to do and all that. This is not an extensive list, just some examples. And all far better uses of the money then the police. And all proven to reduce crime. While police don't at all.

They even had on-site interviews with island ferry operators talking about losing their jobs.

The phrase, "Defund the police" is generally (with the exception of some extremists who don't understand reality) not meant to actually call for the elimination of all police in the US. It's meant to be a call to remove some of the funding currently earmarked for the police, and instead give it to new institutions who would be better equipped and trained to handle situations that the police are currently expected to perform, despite the fact that they are not equipped or trained to do so. The most prominent example of this is the handling of people having a mental health crisis. These people are often a danger to themselves and others. The standard response to situations like this in the US all too often is to shoot the person dead, whereas a team who are trained to deal with someone like this would be far more likely to defuse the situation and get the person going through a crisis the help they need.

this is literally my 4th comment but let me just say. in america, the police have enough funding to train their cops not to kill people. money isn't the issue, they have plenty of that. the problem is that there is a systemic issue where killing people in the right circumstance is easier than doing your job. this is off the cuff but i guarantee that 50% of the american police budget (that they were asking for) is still leagues above most countries. idk. i have a huge problem with how things are run with the money they have, giving them more would just make shit worse

This issue is police departments spend their money on military-grade battle gear instead of implementing programs that work WITH the local communities.

Pretty sure if he did actual narcotics he'd be in the blazement chaining himself to the radiator.
