The commenter is comparing a core GOP belief: Minimal gun control with a fringe Democratic belief: Defund the police.

Any comparison of the parties can't be done in good faith.

Hmmm

‘Defund the police’ is what you see on the signs at democrat protests.

When you get in a discussion, it’s not quite what they mean, but that just means it’s a stupid slogan where you have to redefine every word to get at what you mean.

Human politics and all…

This does not seem like a charitable interpretation of the point OP is trying to make.

"Defund the police" is more of a Republican parody of Democrats than anything else. It's a Fox News slogan. No substantial portion of the Democratic Party supports this, or ever has.

But it's a great way to lie about your political opponents to keep anything rational from being done about gun violence or other issues.
