You really are going out of your way saying something I didn’t say. Joe is now coming out vocally saying police should be funded. Too bad he didn’t do this during the summer of love campaign when many in his party including I believe his VP were supporting defunding the police.
Lol...
Your thread title is "Slow Joe
now for funding the police"
- I highlight the word "now" because it implies that this is a new position for him, that he previously held a different position. He did not.
Your original post says "Comm’n man make up your mind"
- Despite the fact that "Comm'n" would seem to represent the word "common," I'm presuming you actually meant "come on," since that's something Biden says. Regardless, your admonishment that Joe needs to "make up (his) mind" suggests that you are claiming he has changed his mind, perhaps multiple times. He has not.
Lol you guys keep trying to move the goalposts.
That's pretty rich considering it's actually what you've done in this thread by changing from "Biden changed his mind about defunding the police" to "Biden didn't support funding the police strongly enough" when it was pointed out that your first statement was incorrect.
I’m very consistent in my statement
No you weren't, you changed from asserting that Biden supported defunding the police to saying that what you REALLY meant was that Biden wasn't vocal enough. You are now, though, because you clearly can't go back to the demonstrably false claim he supported defunding, so you are at least consistent in your NEW position that you're pretending you had all along.
and am 100% correct in that Joe never was as vocal in support of funding police 2 years ago until now when it’s a campaign issue.
Whether or not this is true, him not being as vocal about it as you would have liked is not anywhere close to the same thing as him supporting defunding.
He was for reallocating of funding police 2 years ago but now is for funding police. Just proves how out of touch he is.
I would guess that he still supports the reallocation of police funds (meaning, changing the specific things that money is spent on) to things that might be more effective at preventing crime, like mental health services, from things police don't really need, like surplus military equipment. This is the exact kind of thing I asked NOT to see, because this is NOT defunding the police as it's been characterized by Republicans and, unless you can find somewhere where he's changed his position on these issues, it's still not an example of hypocrisy. Has Biden offered up any policies that would reduce police budgets? Did his proposed federal budget include less funding for police? Has he made a speech in which he said police forces have too much money?
Given your apparent refusal to acknowledge that the first thing you said was incorrect and to, instead, insist that you were actually saying something else (despite, you know, what words actually mean), I guess we're done here.
