Some of our more extreme members of society are calling to abolish and defund police in the United States. Not surprisingly, ELCA pastors have been joined in, voicing this radical and dangerous idea. Below is a sampling.
ELCA pastor, Elle Dowd, posts continually on this topic. Last week she shared an article that is seeking to "Defund Police," "Remove Police from Schools," and "Free People from Jails and Prisons." Here Rev. Elle Dowd is posting information about abolishing the police. ELCA Rev. Emily Scott has been active on social media encouraging the defunding of police: Marching in a protest, ELCA pastor, Adam Dowd writes "#abolishThePolice." On another post, Rev. Adam Dowd writes, "This is why we need #AbolitionNow #veteransforpeace #NoGoodCops" (see here) Infamous ELCA pastor, Lura Groen, wants to abolish police: Atticus Zavaletta, an ELCA trans vicar, wants to defund the police: See link here. Then we have ELCA Rev. Clint Schnekloth posting an article about the police abolition movement: ELCA seminary student, Amy Courts, posted this article about abolition of the police: Amy Courts goes on:

These people live in a liberal fantasyland. So they defund the police and crooks have a field day.

If their progressive dreams come true, the ELCAnites will face shortages of tofu, arugula, and essential oils. A poll of 1,200 truckers asking this question -- "Would you pick up or deliver to cities with defunded or disbanded police?" -- found 79% saying no and 21% saying yes.

None of this is a surprise, I have yet to see any position taken by the far left, no matter how extreme or frankly stupid, that ELCA leaders haven't embraced.

If these liberal ELCA people truly cared about humanity, they should be thanking President Trump. Prior to covid, Trump’s policies were responsible for the LOWEST unemployment rates for blacks and Hispanics EVER. Things were getting better for these people are things are turning around now as covid starts to fade.
