No. Which meant fewer police tanks, and riot gear, and payouts for terrible police behavior. Slightly reduced budgets for less police bloat, and more experts to handle delicate situations. That doesn't mean less police. But the unions sure wanted to make you think that's what it would do.

Once again... Defund the police was never about taking police away. It was allocating money in a different way so that there would be more specialists to deal with things that cops are really bad at. Like mental health episodes or suicidal people, so that they can do better at their actual job of dealing with criminals.

I... Don't think so? Big reason why public pools have the chemical that turns blue when urine is introduced. It's more an unspoken possibility, where if you can pull it off, you got away with it and didn't have to go through the minor inconvenience of drying off for the bathroom. But I guess same goes for shitting in the ocean.
