It must be frustrating to be a taxpayer, demanding to defund the police while simultaneously having to pay for their mistakes.

If only their elected officials would listen to them...

For starters, you would think that

* Revenue from tickets/fines/etc. shouldn't go to into police pockets or it just incentives rent seeking behavior by people with law enforcement powers

* Settlements should come out of their budget not city insurance.
