L.A. City Council Pres. wants to DEFUND THE POLICE, just not the ones standing 'round-the-clock' watch outside her home

Meet Nury Martinez, President of the Los Angeles City Council. Ms. Martinez recently proposed cutting the Los Angeles Police Department budget by $150 million:

UPDATED: L.A. Council President Nury Martinez and 3 of her colleagues introduced a plan to find $100 million to $150 million in cuts at the LAPD, which could potentially reverse the increase planned by Mayor Garcetti for the coming budget year. https://t.co/NcWGsUSxD0

She wants to defund the police, just not the ones that guard her home. Note how she called off the security only once the media got wind of it:

#LATEST LA Council Pres. Nury Martinez, who introduced a motion to cut #LAPD’s budget by $150 million, had a private LAPD protection detail camped at her home from April to June. It was called off the night we called to ask her team about it. Full story coming to @SpecNews1SoCal pic.twitter.com/1lv5ctqQEC

These hypocrites. THEY get “round-the-clock private security” provided by the LAPD:

While one LA Councilmember was introducing a motion to cut $150 million in #LAPD funding, that official also had round-the-clock private security provided by the department at their home. @LAPPL calls it hypocrisy, adding it may have cost taxpayers around $100k. @SpecNews1SoCal pic.twitter.com/lrrRC65oj1

YOU at home? You get to wonder if “defund the police” will result in that 911 call not getting answered.
