“The lack of a police presence is noticeable. Things have taken a turn in the last five years.”

Adams noted “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious People. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”
A peaceful and polite population needs no police.

In 2005, Terry Bellamy, the first female African American mayor, was elected as mayor of Asheville, NC. Charles Worley was the mayor prior to that, and he was a moderate Democrat. Today, Worley would be considered a Republican.

Esther Manheimer, Democrat, was elected mayor of Asheville in 2013. Manheimer cut the police funding by 3% in 2020. That’s when the rot really started setting into the town. It’s been going downhill ever since.

For an example of the current major’s policies, read the article at the link below.

“Asheville created a 30/60/90 plan aimed at working toward social justice and racial equity.

In the 60 day timeframe, discussions were to begin on defunding the police by 50%. Those talks did happen, but at a smaller scale. The budget the city approved for next year reduces police funding by just 3%.”
