Minneapolis Activists Want to Abolish Police Despite Over 500 Rapes in the City Annually
More than 500 rapes were reported to police in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in 2019, according to crime data maintained by the city. The high number of rapes in Minneapolis hasn’t prevented activists and local leaders from pushing to abolish the city’s police department. A veto-proof majority of city council members has pledged to “dismantle” the Minneapolis Police Department following the death of George Floyd, a black man who died after a police officer was seen on video kneeling on Floyd’s neck for longer than eight minutes.
