Agreed that sounds like wasteful spending. When that SWAT team finally gets a callout they’re going to go hard and use excessive force.

The US spends 135 billion on its police force so some wasteful spending is going to happen.

Defund the police people would spend that money on something unrelated to law enforcement.

I would spend it on something useful and law enforcement related like more training for officers.
