    Giving PPD more money will not solve any problems. It's time that they hear us. We're tired of them killing and harassing us.

    Vote NO on this request! Tell PPD that just like any other department in the city, their budget should be slashed instead of increased when they screw up. And let’s be real, targeting protesters & celebrating your violence with neo-Nazi coins is a pretty big screw up on a national scale. You already gave PPD permission to get reimbursed for riots that never happened, now you want them to get more money for equipment that they’ll use to kill the very public you’re supposed to serve? #DefundPhxPD

    In the midst of racist, violent scandals and rampant abuse of law and discretion this council is choosing to reward the police by applying to give them more money? Terrible idea.

    Public Safety & Justice is the name of this subcommittee. Yet none of you do anything at all to promote public safety or justice! In fact you support and promote further violence from PPD by funding them and refusing to use your power to hold them accountable. We have to create citizen’s petitions to literally force you to focus on anything that is actually important or beneficial to the people who need protection from your violent killer cops. Do NOT for any reason give PPD more money! Vote NO!

    PPD is getting investigated for being white supremacists who exploit their power to send their critics to prison, but the City and this subcommittee are trying to get them even more money. You still won’t talk about what really matters to people who are being killed day in, day out by your police force! Vote NO on this grant and finally show you’re not just a bunch of enablers. If you won’t defund PPD, at least don’t let them find other ways to make more money off our deaths. #DefundPhxPD

    Last time it was barking dogs, now it’s “let’s find new ways to reward our neo-nazi police force with public funds for all the people they already managed to kill and cage this year”. We already know PPD will use this Homeland Security money to brand protests as “riots” after they violently assault people demanding justice & book them as gangs. How many times do we have to prove they can’t be trusted with any of the money you keep throwing at them? They already have 745 million in funds. Vote NO

    Ed Zeurecher blood is on your hands, we demand you’re fired. Chief Jeri Williams blood is on your hands, we demand you’re fired. Jeff Barton how dare you come here and ask for yet MORE money for police to continue defending white supremacy in all its forms. City Council, none of you deserve your job. You do less than nothing. You all have blood on your hands and we can’t wait to see your seats filled with new council members who will work for us. Vote NO. Not one more cent. #DefundPhoenixPD

    Support. District 8 isn't safe especially for children. I'm still waiting for justice to be served for the Pedofiles that got my kid. We don't have enough Police and staff. Give Police $$$ so we can have safety. You criminals that don't like Police- screw you. Don't use them then. But we need them. My Mother and grandmother and neighborhood needs them. It's a war zone in District 08.

    Only criminal's sex traffickers and Pedofiles don't want Police! We need Police. We're short Police and staff and can't get one when we need one. Put $$$$$$$ into doing recruiting locally, lateral moves from other states, PSA how to act towards Police because I've never seen such disrespect from these people commenting on here. Dist 08 needs to be safe. There's drug dealers everywhere. Kids are now getting these drugs in the 6th grade even younger. Seniors are scared to go outside. Get k9s

    We're short 1000 + officers and staff. Missing Children has only 4 Detective's and should have 40+ and crimes against Children just a few more. Drugs and gangs have taken over District 8. Council doesn't care, doesn't return phone calls or emails. Give Police the $$

    PHXPD has gotten ~$5M yr since 2003. What has that ~$90M gotten us? nothing more than the deadliest police force in the country featuring a trigger happy Tactical Response Team that routinely shows its discretion with gross overexertions of force. Let's NOT fund this arms race to fascism and see what happens in the absence of these $5M. I don't believe that we can in good conscious misappropriate this money knowing that it will just go to more tools for phoenix PD to turn on it's own citizens.
