    Please outline the mental gymnastics to connect police funding to name a prison to mock someone? I don’t see how this has anything to do with the conversation other than a deflecting right winger that needs to compare Trump to Biden just like every right winger does.

    It would be so nice to have a conversation above a teenager level of debate. Where the bouncing ball actually made sense where it bounces.

      The 100,000 cops and 37 billion dollars in policing/surveillance will throw many, many people into prisons. Some of them guilty, many of them, who knows. Many of them on minor charges.

      Is that an okay outline

        Kinda missing a few steps. But sure. Let’s include schools and fire departments too. Since it’s all part of “society”.

        They don’t throw them into prisons. The courts do that. They do play their part for sure. But that still doesn’t connect how supporting the police is the same as mocking Trump.
