Response to Michelle Scorziello.

>>...articles about US states that had defunded the police and seen crime skyrocket.

Links to articles? I mostly read the WaPo and have not seen anything like this. Sure you're not referencing something on the extreme right?

Yes, there was a crime spike in Mpls, but that wasn't from any kind of "defunding", more about officers resigning and the rest refusing to patrol certain areas.
