Which is it? I think what you're doing is grossly magnifying the problem with bad cops in order to justify crazies on the left looting and burning and rioting.

Please don't fall for this pink leftist nonsense.

No, it is not self caused. It is cause by the crime rates we see in inner city populations.
"It has been well-known that far-right terrorism is the greatest threat to the US for years now, and that threat is completely different than activists upset with unwarranted violence and racism among law enforcement."
Yet it is the left that is producing the most destruction and body counts. And I include black on black crime.
Why would you attribute black on black crime to the left? What does that have to do with terrorism?

There's a VAST difference between defunding and reforming. In fact, reforming may require GREATER funding.

Actually, it started before that and specifically to highlight policing needs reform. The GOP disagrees that policing needs reform.

It's also a terrible exaggeration that any cities have been "reduced to ashes." There were violent demonstrations led by extremists, just like the capitol riot was led by QAnon and NeoNazis, who the POTUS never condemned QAnon even when he clearly knew their wacko beliefs.

Defunding primarily means diverting some amount of funds or reducing funding, only a very small minority wants complete defunding.
To "defund" something means - take the funding away.
Do not use that term unless that's what you mean. Simple as that.
Even some of the nutter legislators like in Minnesota have realized what a psychotic mess that was, and are walking it back.
A lot of crime only exists because society has failed in addressing social issues, and police activity can often make those issues worse.
If a community if deciding how to allocate a budget, it makes more sense to use it to prevent problems from occurring in the first place rather than to stop them after the fact. There are other concerns that call for defunding too, like unbundling or demilitarization.

The first I heard about Antifa was the protests against white supremacistMilo Yiannopoulos at UC Berkeley. Coulter's speech was cancelled before anything happened and Shapiro's talk was generally uneventful. They've pretty consistently been counter-protesting Neo Nazi rallies.
