Well, that's the thing. As I said in a recent post, the lefties are going to get some surprises when they try to break up police departments that are creatures of the lefty unions that are supported by lefties. Just when they think they are going to lay off most of the officers and take the pay from officers to fund their pet BLM projects, they will wake up and find out that the police department is on strike.
The sad part is that many cities have made significant steps towards re-vitalization in recent years with businesses, new condos/apartments, and retailers all moving back downtown. "Defunding the police" will ensure complete flight from the city, and all the progress made in downtowns will revert to be hollowed-out city cores adrift in crime and poverty.
Wait til the blacks start robbing the white liberals and black liberals in their expensive neighborhoods. Going to be hilarious hearing about some liberal white social justice warrior getting pistol whipped and beaten by a group of blacks that want their stuff.
I said it years ago. The Democraps want to rule so badly that they are willing to "burn the country to the ground so long as they get to rule over the ashes". We're seeing some of that now!
BLM and Antifa thugs getting smarter nowadays. They target the higher end stores with designer clothes, bags, shoes, etc. Why settle for the cheap China imports when you can get the luxury brands and sell them for top dollar? Next will be the plush homes of the extreme liberal whites. They got to have good, expensive stuff right, including expensive cars, jewelry, lots of monies? I hope they do not forget the extreme liberals of Hollywood. That is a goldmine. Lots of expensive stuff over there.
Democrats Present Police Reform Bill Amid Nationwide Protests https://www.bloomberg.com/news/arti...sent-police-reform-bill-amid-weeks-of-protest House and Senate Democrats proposed a sweeping police reform bill on Monday, hoping to turn energy from growing nationwide protests over racial injustice and police misconduct into concrete legal changes that could make it easier to prosecute and sue law enforcement officers. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and other top Democrats, before presenting the legislation at a news conference, knelt for 8 minutes and 46 seconds of silence to honor George Floyd, whose death at the hands of Minneapolis police sparked weeks of protest. “The martyrdom of George Floyd gave American experience a moment of national anguish as we grieve for African Americans killed by police brutality,” Pelosi said. Now it is “being transformed into a moment of national action,” she said, adding, “We cannot settle for anything less than transformative structural change.” Senator Cory Booker welcomed the protests building in cities and towns around the country, but stressed that concrete action was necessary. “Empathy and sympathy and words of caring for those who have died and suffered is necessary but not enough,” Booker said. “We must change laws and systems of accountability.” Bill co-sponsor Senator Kamala Harris, a much talked about candidate to be Joe Biden’s vice presidential pick, said all Americans would benefit from police reform. “We are here because black Americans want to stop being killed,” Harris said. Even so, she said, “reforming policing is in the best interest of all Americans.” The Justice in Policing Act would change the definition of criminal misconduct for police, so instead of “willfully” violating constitutional rights, an officer could be charged after doing so with knowing or reckless disregard. It would also curtail “qualified immunity” that broadly shields police officers from being held liable for damages for rights violations in civil lawsuits. The bill faces an unclear path through the Republican Senate or the White House. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell hasn’t ruled out Republican backing for some type of police reform legislation, although the GOP has resisted some proposals in the past. “It’s something we need to take a look at,” McConnell said last week. “There may be a role for Congress to play in this as well. We’ll be talking to our colleagues about what, if anything, is appropriate to do.” Attorney General Bill Barr said Sunday on CBS’s “Face the Nation” he opposes efforts to make it easier to sue police, arguing it would result in “police pulling back.” President Donald Trump has seized on calls by some protesters to cut funding for police in order to attack Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden. The president will hold a roundtable with law enforcement later Monday. Congressional Democrats are so far not embracing calls to “defund” or “abolish” the police. Instead they are looking to create incentives for reforms by tying existing funding to changes. The bill would place new limits on federal funding for local and state police by requiring bias training and the use of de-escalation tactics in order for grants to be approved. The bill would curtail the transfer of military weaponry to state and local police. The bill would also ban federal law enforcement from using choke-holds like the one used by police in the death of Floyd last month, as well as no-knock warrants such as the one that led to the death of Breonna Taylor in Louisville in March. The congressional bill would make lynching a federal crime for the first time. The law would also require federal officers to wear body cameras and create a national registry of police violations would be created. Congressional Black Caucus Chairwoman Karen Bass and Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler of New York are sponsoring the bill in the House. Harris of California and Senator Cory Booker of New Jersey are the leaders of the effort in the Senate.
This article is proof that the left prefers to attack itself towards the inside than attack real dangers like the CCP. Liberalism has this amazing way of self destroying itself trying to carry as many corpses with it as possible. https://www.nationalreview.com/magazine/2020/06/22/rioting-again/
What am I missing here? This doesn't appear to have anything in it that seems crazy at all. I could support this.
