Why should police be defunded? What are the pros and cons of this?

2 answers:

5 0

Defunding police can be beneficial. Defunding police can locate money to other areas that can benefit a community more, such as giving more money to health facilities. This can take situations away from police that are better suited for professionals in an area, such as social workers and other people who are better trained in helping the mentally ill or abusive situations.

However, in some places, defunding can be detrimental. In areas with heavy crime or smaller areas, the police might already not have enough funding and defunding could cause the force to be overrun due to decreased resources. Without enough resources, crime can increase due to people taking advantage of the situation.

In terms of abolishment of police, this would not be a good situation at all, because in the transition period between finding a new system, there would likely be many people taking advantage and committing crime with out prosecution. Also, a new system could be faulty because it is hard to tell how well it will work.

Answer:

police shouldn't be defunded, if they are defunded, we will have no law and everyone will go crazy and there would be no resources or anything and everyone would live in fear.

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

"The Banana Tree" is a short story by Jamaican author James Berry. Gustus is a 13-year-old boy, the son of Mr. Bass. His father is a big man, not only physically speaking. Mr. Bass is seen as a reliable man of faith, who is friends with his community. However, Gustus' relationship with his father, at the beginning of the story, is filled with resentment. Gustus knows Mr. Bass is proud of him, of how big and strong he is. Yet, he feels unseen, misunderstood. Mr. Bass does not like what he likes, does not support his passion for cricket, and does not see his son's social needs - such as new shoes to go out with his friends.

Gustus has been taking care of a banana tree that was planted when he was born. Buried with the seed is Gustus' umbilical cord. In a way, Gustus and the tree are connected - his umbilical cord is nourishing the tree. He hopes to sell the fruit to buy himself the shoes he wants so much, but a hurricane hits his town. Gustus ends up leaving his family behind in the shelter to go prevent his precious bananas from being destroyed. However, the storm is vicious and hurts him badly.

At the end of the story, Mr. Bass and a searching party find Gustus. He asks his son what he did that for, and Gustus tells him the truth. Their relationship is immediately changed. Not only is Mr. Bass relieved to find his son alive, but he also begins to understand Gustus' needs. He even takes off his own boots to put them on his boy.

Usimov [2.4K]

I would say the correct answer is B. Then he sprang out of bed, and shook himself violently! No, no nose any more!
This sentence differs from the other ones that you've given us because it seems more active, more lively. There is something actually happening here, and the exclamation marks show that it is happening fast. All of these together make the sentence somewhat amusing, at least as opposed to the other ones here.
