They need food, supplies to whoever still lives in those cities

I have sidearms

If defunding emphasizes less weaponry for the police, what happens when they show up with knives to a gunfight? Remember the saying, something about only criminals will have guns...How will any police force fill its ranks if those people know they cannot protect themselves from the criminal element they are tasked with apprehending? It opens the door to continued National Guard presence, maybe even martial law. Bad idea overall, imho.

I just turned down a load from miami to st paul paying 3800 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️ my life matter more than any other

No

I want my personal safety to be as strong as possible. If the towns are at risk that is, as my driving instructor would say a “hazard”. One that to me is unacceptable.

Been to Minneapolis Mn twice so far .... I'll be back up there Monday

Im my own police

No load is worth my life. Look at what they did to the tanker driver during the protests. Look at what they tried to do the FedEx driver. Enough is enough.

No load is worth my life!

No I won't. There are plenty of others that will do it so let them. Just dont start whining on social media when you get attacked.

Yes because places such as Minneapolis say they aren’t going to disband until they have a plan in place to replace it. Look at Camden NJ, they did it in 2012 and they have less than half the crime they did before.

Wow look at all the no’s What is happened to the trucking industry take a fucking load go deliver it and make a paycheck

Stupidity to even have a conversation about this

For my own safety and the security of my customers loads, I have informed my dispatcher that I will refuse all loads to cities that have defunded their police departments.

It is time to start taking matters into your on hands the police can’t be your babysitter and as for the idiots out there if they know every one is packing heat they would be less likely to fuck with you. No one wants to feel a bullet in there ass

Simple.we may not like it all the time, but law and order is NECESSARY!

Even though there are very few Cops who are out looking for wreckless drivers that screw with truck drivers (cutting them off then brake checking, etc, etc, etc) they are still much needed. We need judges that actually do something with offenders even more.

I do not want to be the next Reginald Denny. That simple.

Life on the road is hard enough without having to worry about somebody trying to get into your truck

Umm, because I don't want to get shot and because of where I go into Canada, I can't carry in my truck

Because I have already shot enough people in my life... I'd rather not have to make a habit of it...

It already gets pretty sketchy and some areas that I go to I can only imagine how much worse it will be with no police it's a hard no from me

I can run almost anywhere. But I don't like the West Coast or the Northeast.

Whoever chose the phrase defund wasn't very smart because that's not what it actually means. Reorganization or restructuring is what it should say because that's what it is. It's NOT getting rid of the police entirely

If there are not any police then i won't be arrested for running anyone over who gets in my way!!

Cause there's nobody to call or try to get help from if something goes wrong

Unless my company starts allowing me co carry my gun in truck I won't do it

My family loves me

They should not defund the police They should retrain the police behavior toward none white people
