Defund the Police Means Law and Order for Only America's Elites

Quote
When the law breaks down and anarchy and violence reign, only the wealthy, powerful, and corrupt thrive.

In a moment of clarity, Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO)—a “rising star“ in the Democratic Party—perhaps unwittingly put a spotlight on this reality in an interview with CBS News. Bush, who had slept outside the capitol building to protest the end of the eviction moratorium, explained why she needed to spend $70,000 on private security.

“They would rather I die?” Bush asked. “You would rather me die? Is that what you want to see? You want to see me die? You know because that could be the alternative.”

Bush explained that to protect herself she would spare no expense and that she needed the security because people want to kill her and she “had work to do.”

The elites are for defund the police.

Has she produced any evidence of the threats of violence and death which require her to need her own security, or better yet, the investigations and convictions from said threats?
Romans 6:17-18 But thanks be to God, that you who were once slaves of sin have become obedient from the heart to the standard of teaching to which you were committed, and, having been set free from sin, have become slaves of righteousness.

I heard her arrogant rant and the short answer is, "Nope."

The other thing I heard was that she's special and more important than John Q. Citizen.

So much for the left's constant preaching about equality for all...
Biden is an illegitimate President.  Change my mind.

Police lives matter.
