Read the article, I believe it's mostly for horseshit laws like marijuana and shit. Most notably, "assaultive crimes" are not covered. This might be a victory primarily pushed by the left but honestly I think it's a good thing.
My beef with the right is they think "law and order" and "being tough on crime" is simply getting as much arrests as possible and harsh sentencing, with little respect for proportionality of the crime or the justice of the law. Joe Arpiao was cheerleeded on Fox, by Trump, and others, but like so many sociopaths, he used "law and order" as a guise for his fetish for power. Ignoring his corruption, merely being arrested by Arpaio--merely being accused, and not convicted, would net you the exact same treatment as the real criminals in his tent cities as you awaited trial, this is not rule of law or justice and conservatives need to figure out that "rule of law," "justice," and "punishment" are not synonymous. Meanwhile dangerous neighborhoods stay run-down shitholes because they know retarded braindead "boomers' with their bovine intelligence will eat it all up. Far from defunding the police, we should increase police funding and police presence in dangerous areas, protect local businesses so the economies can thrive, crack down on gangs and vandalism, and better integrate the police with local communities so people trust the police, don't live in fear of getting arrested for incredibly minor crimes (possession of marijuana), and feel open to report crimes and not that "snitches get stitches."
Kind of an aside, but related to this topic at its core so not really off topic, is that when the cops arrest people for victimless crimes for shit everyone participates in (marijuana--again, nearly EVERYONE does pot, conservative politicians included) it erodes trust. The drug war, or at least how its been waged, as set citizens against the police. There's a reason people speak of Al Capone with a strange reverence despite him being a crime lord. It's absolutely ridiculous the left is putting forth both Biden and Harris as their nominees when they both have been the exact sort of politicians that helped lead us down the road to BLM shit.
Ah, but make the local communities safe, then that might gentrify them and we can't have that. The left's favorite catch-22: Shitty rundown neighborhoods are due to lack of opportunity and capitalistic excess; but if you fix that, the now-nice neighborhoods are gentrified and taken from the poor inhabits which is also a sign of capitalistic excess.
