Well for many it’s Regan’s “war on drugs” mentality, that more cops breaking heads for drugs will somehow reduce the amount of drug use when it has been shown in study after study not to be true. And the militarisation of the police is also not cheap, but how else are you going to be able to quell a BLM peaceful protest, but allow a riot on the capital to continue for hours? 🤬😵‍💫
