Honestly, this example is just about the clearest example of "Defund the Police" I've seen. Police here seem to largely be doing more harm than good, even if they are serving with good intentions, and transferring funding from the police to mental health services and other community resources would be a much better fit to tackle the problem (and many more).

Yeah, "Reallocate Police Funds to Social Services" was always the more accurate message of the Defund movement but it doesn't exactly roll off the tongue, grabs less attention, and was successfully mischaracterized by the right.
