Minneapolis City Council Unanimously Votes to Replace Police with ‘Community-Led Public Safety System’
2020-06-13
[THEGATEWAYPUNDIT] The Minneapolis City Council on Friday unanimously voted a resolution to replace the police with a ’community-led public safety system.’
Is that legal according to the Minnesota constitution?
Get out while you can!

The radical left is pushing to "defund the police" following the death of George Floyd.

By "defund the police," the left means replacing the police with Sharia patrol, Black Panthers, La Raza and other anti-Christian, anti-white social justice enforcers.

Rooters reported:

The Minneapolis City Council on Friday unanimously passed a resolution to pursue a community-led public safety system to replace the police department following the death of George Floyd at the hands of the city’s police.

According to the resolution, the city council will begin a year-long process of engaging "with every willing community member in Minneapolis" to come up with a new public safety model.

The council commissioned a new work group to deliver recommendations by July 24 on how to engage with community stakeholders to transform the public safety system.

"Today’s unanimous City Council resolution advances our shared commitment to transformative change in how Minneapolis approaches public safety so that every member of our community can be truly safe," said City Council President Lisa Bender. "As we respond to demands for immediate action to reduce police violence and support community safety, we will invite our community to help shape long-term transformative change, centering the voices of those most impacted by community violence and police violence."

#17  Very good. No police. Let's do away with the courts too. In fact, how about American nationalists setting up their own community funded, armed patrols etc ? Combat veterans and newly resigned cops all forming a new force ? Funded by civs. No bureaucracy over it, it might work better than the boys in blue.

If divisiveness is going to be the game, and the Right starts to play it with the same gall, it would turn out to be very bad for the insurrectionists.

#15  community stakeholders

I think they mean Community Organizers. You know the people who would never actually permit a problem to be solved because feeding off the problem, and it's victims, is their bread and butter. See Barak Obama, Career Politician, Vampires, etc...

#13  So I'm reading that over 70% of the over the road CDL truck drivers will not deliver to areas with defunded police department. How long will it take them to start eating long pig ?

#12  I'm sure that any insurance companies with a lot of homeowners policies in Minneapolis will be very interested in this story. Gotta wonder what kind of premium adjustments they will require when it comes time to renew those policies.

kind of hard to agitate and debate the finer points of communism when all your energy and time is being spent staying alive.

#8  Flocking to the countryside?. No, most will stay but those with gumption will move away as they are doing now. Countryside is not a welcomed place for these people. When locals are aware of them acceptance is a hard pill to swallow. Biggest problem is all the liberal safety nets are not in place. You are on your own and that is a difficult or impossible problem.

#4  I suggest they be permitted to do whatever they will. Additional proofs of Natural Selection are superfluous. We've clearly moved on to the urban community implementation phase. Please do not interfere.

#3  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Committee_of_Public_Safety

The power of the committee peaked between August 1793 and July 1794, during which it gained dictatorial powers and organised the Reign of Terror. In December 1793, the convention formally conferred executive power upon the committee. Among the members, the radical Jacobin Maximilien Robespierre emerged as a leader. After the killing of the rival factions of Hébertists and Dantonists, sentiments in the convention eventually turned on Robespierre, who was killed in July 1794. In the following Thermidorian Reaction – named after the month of Thermidor in the French Republican calendar – the committee's influence diminished and it was abolished in 1795
