Most Americans believe the vacuum created by defunding the police would be filled with predators and dangerous criminals—not with social workers and do-gooders.

Coming out of retirement in France’s Medoc region, De-nard replayed the plan he devised in 1978, when he went ashore from a rusty freighter. This time about 50 rebels seized the airport and captured President Mohamed Djohar, killing seven people in the process. In his place they installed former interior minister Combo Ayouba, who had been jailed since a 1992 coup attempt. “The public didn’t know how to get out of the mess they were in,” Ayouba said....
