Aw, did you find an incident in the past 5 years where civil rights were violated and the wronged person was empowered to seek justice for it in a court of law via civil lawsuit?
Allow me to tell you about a female friend of mine who was forced by a police officer in Mexico to give him a ******** on the side of the road. Let me to inform you that when a group of Federales with badges and automatic rifles search your vehicle, they get to take whatever they want and there is nothing you can do about it. Politicians who run on a platform of fighting corruption are often found hanging from overpasses before the election.
Perhaps a better example of ‘defund the police’ is Haiti where they lost half of all their police. Having one of the highest murder rates in the world including one dead president and Kenya has agreed to send in their own law enforcement, who has a history of extrajudicial killings and excessive use of force, to reestablish some semblance of order.
Success in Ruto’s foreign policy approach depends, in part, on the success of this mission to Haiti—one that will be hard to come by.

I’m happy that you’ve lived such a sheltered life that you think your video shows a system of law enforcement so horrible that the whole thing needs to be torn down. I’m not saying it is perfect but it is pretty damn good and we do have mechanisms in place to address when it falls short. Sadly there are millions of people the world over willing to risk their lives to live under a system you trash in your naiveté. They could tell you how wrong you are if only you were willing to listen.
