Defund the police slogan
mercredi 11 novembre 2020 à 01:00James Clyburn: *‘defund the police’ slogan may have hurt Democrats at polls.*
I know he was right about the slogan "Burn, baby, burn!" I was repelled by that, and naturally so, because I could only interpret it as a call for wanton destruction. If it was intended to mean something else, I can't see it.
"Defund the police" (which I support) does not appear violent. However, it does lend itself to misinterpretation and Clyburn may be right that that was harmful.
Perhaps "Replace the police" would be a better slogan. I think it more clearly expresses the goal which is actually sought.
