Sure! For three times our wages when we were fired, and an iron-clad immunity clause.

They are too stupid to have police. The consequences has to hurt. Good and hard.

So, I expect them to send social workers to domestic disputes or child custody issues.

Then hey will send paramedics and a cleanup crew the slop of the pink mist that was the social worker.

A village of 1000 cannot support a police force due to an insufficient tax base. Suspect defunding whatever force they had was due to economic necessity, or unsupportable personalities on the force vs BLM sensitivities.

Liberals run on emotion and not common sense. They vote to take the locks off the jewelry store door then are surprised when it’s looted.

Now, the town is scheduling a meeting to review whether to revive its police department.

Nah. Just tell everyone to arm themselves and shoot first and don't ask questions.
Good thing Democrats are anti-gun.

No one would ever mistake Pound with Alexandria or Fairfax. Wise County, Virginia, where Pound is located, voted 4:1 for Trump last year. Like much of Appalachia, it used to be Democratic but has moved into the Republican column in this century. This is also coal country, and the Federal war on coal has impacted this area. It is understandable that the locals thought they could do without police due to limited resources.

The worst part is the base emotion that drives them. Hate.

Well, that small town certainly discovered what happen when the “no police” thing becomes real. No real sympathy for the fools.

Strictly looking at economics, I’d suggest any small town or cohesive unincorporated community explore a contract with the county sheriff giving enhanced and dedicated policing. Some states also have constable subdivisions that are an option.
