Defund the police?

4 months ago, a drunk women passed out in the French Quarter and was raped in plain view. The woman that called 911 saw a cop standing on the next block and ran over to get help. The cop did absolutely nothing for the next 3 minutes while the woman was raped a block away and the rapist fled. It turns out the cop was working an off-duty security detail for a movie that was filming in the quarter. Cop retired with no consequences.

Everytime I see this thread title, I wish I could replace the question mark with an exclamation point
