Should funding for local police departments be redirected to social and community based programs?
Yes, replace police with unarmed community based responders for non-violent calls
It is extremely easy to have people who don't have as much training or who are a danger to people respond to community issues instead of trained police officers. Community based officers could easily not have enough training or just don't care enough to properly take care and protect the community.
