    They don’t actually give a shit, it’s 100% lip service, which they are only paying now because one of their own committed such a heinous crime they have no choice but to “investigate themsleves” to appease people such as yourself and stop the justified calls for abolition (but as this article mentions, any actual action is many years away, by which point no one will actually notice any systemic change because there will be none)

        No, it wouldn’t make much sense. The government has beendefunding the police for a decade anyway.
