Defund the police increases crime rates everywhere the policy is adopted.

To be fair, Defunding the police isn't the only cause of rising crimes. Lack of job opportunity decreases the middle class in which results in higher crime rates.

@dyno there is not a lack of job opportunities. At least for low levels jobs. I've seen countless ads on restaurants for workers. Just this last weekend I saw several fast food restaurant advertised $16-$18/hr. Defunding the police is one leg. Lax criminal laws, ie in California theft below $930 (?) is not prosecutable or that "violent" crimes are now re-defined as those that involves injury to a person. ie robbery at gunpoint is not violent for example bc there's no injury or if you have a violent prior crime but your most current crime wasn't (ie robbery, drug trafficking, etc...) then that previous crime didn't show up on your sentencing, etc... I can't present exhaustive list but one can look it up. Lots of manipulation to the enforcement of the law.
