[@guesswhomartin9249]

Nobody in their right mind would become police officer. Nobody goes to school or college to become a police officer. Nobody goes after their PhD degree to become a police officer. That's stupid. Somewhere in this video, I think it's around 1:00 - 1;15 or so. His guy says something to the effect of; the people are seeing a ghost. What police are doing and what people are seeing are two different things. Is this guy in lala land or something ? It's very clear what police officers are doing. It's all on camera. Cameras don't lie. Somebody once said; there has always been a lot of corruption In the police departments. I have to agree with that statement. olden days; I can only imagine the corruption police officers were involved in. Now there's cameras everywhere. And all police officers are required to wear a bodycam. Now; let's get into the meat of the problem. Yes, DEFUND THE POLICE ! Yes, destroy Police Qualified Immunity across America ! Yes, shut down ALL POLICE UNIONS ACROSS AMERICA ! People, we have way too many police officers on payroll ! Why do we have police officers doing Traffic Stops ? Traffic Stops are NOT crimes ! You don't go to jail or prison for Traffic Stops ! Police officers get paid to chase and arrest criminals, not harass Innocent Citizens ! There's no crime going on anywhere. I'm gonna say; it's safe to say, you'll get up to 12 police officers for a simple traffic stop ( a broken brake light , or expired car tags) you'll get 12 police officers there cause police officers are bored; there's no crime going on anywhere. Yes, shut down The Whole Police Traffic Division completely across America ! Traffic Stops are NOT crimes ! The only traffic Stops police officers should be doing are chasing a stolen car and chasing a hit-and-run. Those are crimes ! But a broken brake light, expired car tags, tinted windows, ect. None of those are crimes ! Yes, DEFUND THE POLICE !

[@peternyc]

Minimum wage in the United States is $7.25/hr. Of course the NYPD is seeing its workers leave. The entire country is sick and tired of living to work. Our parents and grandparents were retiring at 62 with full benefits, with mortgages paid and kids in or finished with college. My great uncle was a NYS Trooper and he retired at 55 with full benefits. Blue collar women in China today retire at the age of 55. The problem isn't the NYPD. The problem is America's ruling class has sucked the blood out of the working class.

[@Mxyzptlk30]

NYPD police officers don't get paid minimum wage AND New York's minimum wage is $16/hr due to its high cost of living. Also, we're not China. Do you want us to be like China?! Stop making up stuff and conspiracy theories!

@@colleenpeck6347 Exactly! If you do a KZbin search for 1950's capitalist propaganda cartoons, your jaw will drop. The American worker was treated like a king compared to today. Vacations, overtime, 100% employer pensions, house, weekend barbecues and bowling, on and on and on. America is a joke. All of capitalism is a joke. The more efficiently we can produce goods and services, the more work they put on the workers. There will never be an end to this until our system of capitalism and its aristocracy ends.

The problem is with the courts because when a criminal is arrested they get off lightly. Additionally, the police in NYC is a revenue producer for the city by issuing tickets for parking violations and other offenses having to do with public safety. I was born in the Bronx NYC in 1946 and I escaped from that piss hole in 1989. Best move that I ever made. Now I live on Whidbey Island in Washington State where the people are kind, generous and friendly. Also, I met great friends who love me and I love them back. How great is that ?

Let's be honest, people are not taking these jobs, especially in progressive cities because the political leaders don't have the backs of police officers when they need to. Politicians and DA's are constantly undermining police work, the judicial system is broken. Our schools are a mess and in these progressive cities, the emphasis is on helping the illegals, thus taking education, mental health and police funds. How's the defunding the police working for you ... New York, Portland, Seattle, San Francisco, Chicago, Baltimore, Boston, etc. etc.?
