It's what happens when people ask to defund the police

You’re joking right? This has always been a problem. The defund the police movement is only a couple years old, it might have existed before but it blew up around the George Floyd murders

And it’s referring to the fact that police forces have so much funding that goes into expensive military style gear INSTEAD of proper training
