 Your BLM marchers were largely white suburban progressives?? I was largely inside bcs pandemic last year, but in the past, that has very much not been the case here. 
Anyway, here the police seem to have defunded (or more accurately double-funded) themselves by taking disability en masse (more than a hundred officers) over PTSD in a barely disguised sick out and we’re already on the hook for $111 million in misconduct settlements from last year alone.
