“Defund the police” is a slogan that supports divesting funds from police departments and reallocating them to non-policing forms of public safety and community support, such as social services, youth services, housing, education, healthcare and other community resources.
Yes, but only when the police departments are not lacking the funding neccesary to do their job.
No, both are good but policing is more underfunded in Sweden.

There are problems and we must fix them, but it must come from within. We must find the good officers and build them up to become the shining role models, while making it difficult for the problem types to thrive.
