No. I'm surprised that you had to ask, but whatever. Can money cure police abuse? Surely not.
eta: My point was, if you want to do something to make things better for people in Oakland (for example) who get abused by cops, be prepared to spend some money to do it. Showing up at meetings of municipal government bodies and calling them fascists does not seem to me to be an effective strategy for social change, although of course I'm willing to entertain evidence to the contrary.
