Nonviolent protests are twice as likely to succeed as armed conflicts – and those engaging a threshold of 3.5% of the population have never failed to bring about change.
Police were never defunded. Some cities facing a budget crisis cut a few percent from police budgets. Often, it was a lot less than they cut from libraries, parks, etc. This has nothing to do with anything BLM wanted.
I know that was not what BLM wanted. Im just pointing out the result of populist outcry that lacks a call to action in government policy. Words are nice but they are better when they are presented as legislation for change. Like the civil rights act.
