The NY Times has an article regarding the "demanning" (not defunding) of the police as a major cause for the current wave of gun violence. In many cities where the police have come under severe criticism or defunding attempts there have been waves of resignations and early retirements. In addition, many police departments are having difficulty recruiting new officers.
Of course, this is as always exacerbated by the US being awash in insanely easy to get firearms and ammo due to our friends the gun lobby.
