I would only support open borders if the welfare state went away. Getting on government bennys in the U.S. puts the recipient in the top 20 percent of earners in the world.
I support defunding the state in it's entirety, this would logically include the police and the military.
With my stipulation relating to welfare and immigration, what do you find wrong ?
Why is defunding the police unfavorable in your opinion ?

I'm against a massive police state myself.
I'm against open borders.
I'm okay with defunding the police if it doesn't endanger people.

cool on your take on the police state.
As of now, open borders-even porous borders- would be a massive mistake.
The answer, from an anarcho capitalist perspective, is competing private security agencies.
Think of how bars have bouncers, malls have security, housing associations have security booths at the front, celebrities have security details. Not to mention the vast selection of incredible surveillance and security technology available to the public.The difference between the private class of security professionals and state sanctioned flying monkeys is that the private security professionals would be prosecuted the same way any other citizen would be.
This means they have a self motivated interest in using non lethal methods. Think jujitsu vs. blasting 40 holes in someone, like cops who then get asymmetrical punishment because that pesky thin blue line.
Similar to the honor among thieves seen in the catholic church surrounding pederasty.
