“De-policing” isn’t about police apathy—it’s about leftist antipathy toward the police. It’s the phenomenon where cops avoid pro-active patrol.
Anti-police groups have fabricated a myth that cops are wantonly slaughtering innocent minorities. Why, despite evidence exonerating officers of wrongdoing, does anti-police fervor too often flare into violence? Cops and society’s confusion about police work have collided as progressives try to replace equal justice for all with social justice for some.
As a retired cop, Steve Pomper has dealt with this subject repeatedly in what has become one of the most protest-ridden cities in America: Seattle. De-Policing America is one street cop’s view of the destructive effects of social justice indoctrination and the demonization of law enforcement today.
