'''Defund the Police''' is a liberal [[Democratic Socialist]] slogan to stir racial tensions arising out of the [[2020 Leftwing insurrection]]. The DNC used the slogan as a fund raising scheme to imply [[African American]]s support lawlessness in an effort to stem the tide of Blacks leaving the openly racist [[Democratic party]].<ref>https://thenationalpulse.com/politics/biden-black-lives-matter-defund-the-police/</ref> Caitlin Johnstone calls it,

{{quotebox-float|The fact is George Floyd was killed in Minneapolis, by a Minneapolis policeman. He was not killed by a [[federal]] agent in a community of [[white supremacist]]s.
Minneapolis has been dominated by Democrat mayors for more than 40 years. If [[systemic racism]] exists in the Minneapolis police force it has been enabled by Democrat leaders for more than 40 years. Make no mistake, Gov. Walz, Mayor Frey, Attorney General Ellison, Police Chief Arradondo, [[Ilhan Omar|Rep. Omar]], Sens. [[Klobuchar]] and [[Tina Smith|Smith]] – you own this situation. You have all run on platforms promising you would rid our community of this type of heinous behavior.
Four weeks into the nationwide riots, not a single [[Democrat]] at the federal, state, or local level condemned the violence and attacks on innocent people.<ref>https://youtu.be/JWzbCxlCPbw</ref> Thyblackman.com observed:

{{quotebox-float|"If blacks really believe that police are racist, black victims would presumably be less likely than white victims to report crimes committed against them. After all, they would doubt the commitment of the officers to solve the crimes. They would think that officers will engage in profiling and arrest an innocent black suspect.
In fact, blacks don’t shy away from reporting crimes to the police. [[U.S. Department of Justice]] survey data on crimes reported to police shows that blacks are actually more likely than whites to report violent crimes committed against them to the police by 9 percentage points (54 percent to 45 percent).
[[White House]] Press Secretary [[Kayleigh McEnany]] listed off a few examples of police service to the public in 2019:
