You support and fund the jobs the cops should be doing, move funding from SWAT to social services, stop giving cops military surplus hardware, ban choke holds, more accountability and f**k the thin blue line bee ess.

Cops do not hold back a flood of chaos and anarchy, they should be there to respond to accidents, natural disasters, search and rescue, and of course responding to crimes.
