Ilhan renewed her insane demand—which is the complete removal and disbanding of the Minneapolis Police Department. She made the call during an interview on Tuesday on the increasingly political Teen Vogue. “They need to disband and dismantle—get rid of—the Minneapolis Police Department comes out of a place of understanding that they don’t have credibility within our community,” Omar said. She asserted that the police are operating with impunity.

“They are not doing the core function of solving half of the homicides in our city. So if you are not functioning in the ways in which you are supposed to function, protecting and serving, and your function has become to brutalize and cause harm to our community, then you shouldn’t exist,” the lawmaker added.

Omar’s calls for the complete dismantling of the whole Minneapolis Police Department would go against the interests of the minority groups in the city who would be most affected by the complete absence of the police. The communities there would be taken over by gangs and other criminals. It’s basically the same thing that happened to her native land of Somalia. That’s exactly the kind of situation that Minneapolis would be in if she had her way.

Omar is not alone in calling for abolishing the police department in the city. “We are going to dismantle the Minneapolis Police Department,” Minneapolis City Council member Jeremiah Ellison, who is the son of Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison (D), said.

“And when we’re done, we’re not simply gonna glue it back together. We are going to dramatically rethink how we approach public safety and emergency response. It’s really past due,” Ellison added. After the city council made moves to abolish the police in their city, Minneapolis council members started getting the services of bodyguards who will protect them while condemning ordinary citizens to the mercy of criminal elements.
