re: Ellen goes full Defund the Police

Here’s Democratic Nominee and potentially Joe Biden’s Vice President, Kamala Harris’ comments Monday:

quote:

---

“I think that a big part of this conversation really is about reimagining how we do public safety in America which I support which is this: we have confused the idea that to achieve safety, you put more cops on the street instead of understanding to achieve safe and healthy communities,” Harris said.

---

One can logically derive from this statement that she is suggesting that less police on the street would be better, right?

Haven’t we tried that for say the last 30-40 years? Cops just avoiding certain streets / areas of town completely? How’d that work?

Also, all those back peddling saying “it doesn’t really mean ‘defund the police’ you retards”.......ummm, sounds Kamala got the wrong memo? Dunno

“That’s how I think about this,” Harris continued. “You know, in many cities in America, over one-third of their city budget goes to the police. So, we have to have this conversation, what are we doing? What about the money going to social services? What about the money going to helping people with job training? What about the mental health issues that communities are being plagued with for which we’re putting no resources?”

---

America has spent $15 trillion dollars on programs for those are at or below the poverty line? How’s that investment worked out?

Another thing, how many social workers are in rural communities where pill heads are robbing houses left and right?

But yeah, let's defund our police.

I don't think any of the illiterate MAGA baws know what folks mean when others discuss defunding the police. I fully invite the downvotes.

I forgot libatards like yourself know everything.

It was meant to be taken literally, but no remotely sane person would go for that, so they kept the slogan and decided to change the meaning.

It’s a motte and bailey fallacy with “defund” being the bailey and “reform” being the motte.

quote:

---

The motte-and-bailey fallacy (named after the motte-and-bailey castle) is a form of argument and an informal fallacy where an arguer conflates two positions with similar properties, one modest and easy to defend (the "motte") and one much more controversial (the "bailey"). The arguer advances the controversial position, but when challenged, they insist that they are only advancing the more modest position. The fallacy has been described as the inverse of the straw man, in "replacing a weak position with a strong position to better defend it" rather than "replacing a strong position with a weak position to better attack it". Nicholas Shackel, who coined the term, prefers to speak of a motte-and-bailey doctrine instead of a fallacy.

you probably have no idea your mind is controlled by communists

I'll say this - if they defund money going to the WoD, I wholeheartedly support that kind of move.

That kind of thing alone would save tons of money and almost immediately prop up poorer neighborhoods.

I don’t understand how she didn’t leave the country after trump won. Pretty sure she was up in arms about it and talked openly about leaving.
