I have this discussion occasionally with folks who believe that it’s just a matter of explanation & education. I’m usually accused of seeing the worst in humanity. Maybe they’re right, but i consider it a fools’ gamble. Edited June 8, 2020 by Kevbeau 3

My wife and I love that our daughter's small school has two police officers there at all times. The idea that they could be removed is crazy. For some reason I immediately thought of this: 19yr old me: Col Jessup is an evil ******* 46yr old me: He’s still an ******** but.... Edited June 8, 2020 by Kevbeau 1 1

My subdivision of nearly 1000 homes would meet your description and our town is very affluent. Crime is very low. However, we have a set of officers assigned to our subdivision 24/7 per shift and often at night you will find a squad car or two parked in the pool parking lot. We are patrolled every day. We've had stretches of years where the same officers have been assigned. You meet them occasionally and get to know them some. It works well. Edited June 8, 2020 by keepthefaith 1 1

Before defunding or dismantling the police, maybe we should try a different approach by shifting police resources form the highest violent crime areas, which are always in the poorest neighborhoods, to the middle and upper class suburbs?

So now we're supposed to believe that removing police from schools makes the schools safer? Huh.

Maybe we’re bypassing each other but I was thinking along the lines of we have jobs/responsibilities that we’d rather weren’t necessary, but unfortunately are.
