People unclear on the subject - defund the police

Talk about clueless - from The Post Millenial:

Family of slain Oakland anti-police activist says killers should not be jailed
The family of Oakland, California bakery owner and vocal anti-police activist Jen Angel, who passed away after being the victim of a violent attempted robbery, have declared that if law enforcement finds the suspects, they will push for "all available alternatives to traditional prosecution."

In a statement, Angel's family explained that as a self-described "anarchist" and an avid social justice advocate, she had a strict policy of never calling the police, and "did not believe in state violence, carceral punishment, or incarceration as an effective or just solution to social violence and inequity."

"We know Jen would not want to continue the cycle of harm by bringing state-sanctioned violence to those involved in her death or to other members of Oakland’s rich community," the family wrote.

"If the Oakland Police Department does make an arrest in this case," they continued, "the family is committed to pursuing all available alternatives to traditional prosecution."

Words fail.  The willful stupidity on display here is staggering. 
These are toddlers wobbling about pretending to be grown adults and getting away with it.
