ending the drug war would automatically defund the police and take away a lot of their power. right now they can stop you in your car say "I smell drugs" search your car without a warrant and take anything of value. then you have to fight tooth in nail to get it back.

Good answer.
I live in the burbs and I just looked up my city budget and police is 15% of the budget, and we spend twice as much on fire/EMS as we do on police.
