Any money you give cops or ICE for things like “deescalation training” will just be used to fund more violence. We have known this for YEARS.

Q: The shock gloves that ICE is reportedly rolling out using the deescalation funding. Is that the sort of use you envisioned when you passed that bill? SUSAN COLLINS: It's not

Unfortunately people saying "defund the police" has always been a mix of people going "when I say defund the police I mean reduce police budgets and increase social services" and people saying "when I say defund the police I mean get rid of police, period."
