Why not do Both? The local Law enforcement is necessary for peace however The social and community based programs are also great to keep people from entering those curricles of bad gang people in the first place and to give them something they can feel apart of and belong to that keeps them from joining gangs or organized criminals
@9NPM5ZK6mos6MO
Somebody of the funding could be used for social and community based programs but local police departments should still exist.
@9D7JDWD1yr1Y
Yes, but only when the police departments are not lacking the funding neccesary to do their job.
@9CKDKVV1yr1Y
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.
@95LHD562yrs2Y
Yes, but still keep some funding for the local police.
@95BWHNP2yrs2Y
Funding for police should not be reduced but there should be more funding for local social integration programs also.
@959MLN22yrs2Y
Keep police investments as is and invest more in communities
