There is a reason for that.

 

 

 

Before defunding or dismantling the police, maybe we should try a different approach by shifting police resources form the highest violent crime areas, which are always in the poorest neighborhoods, to the middle and upper class suburbs?

Has she done any get togethers with police and poor communities to help out?

For some reason I immediately thought of this:

 

19yr old me: Col Jessup is an evil *******
46yr old me: He’s still an ******** but....

 

 

So now we're supposed to believe that removing police from schools makes the schools safer?  Huh.

Maybe we’re bypassing each other but I was thinking along the lines of we have jobs/responsibilities that we’d rather weren’t necessary, but unfortunately are.

If only at one point in her life she had a job that could have addressed some of these issues.

Hilarious. Setting aside the ridiculousness of the post on its face, perhaps the funniest part is that the far left folks are the only ones with good intentions

Uncle Joe is also against legal weed sales. Decriminalize but still keep illegal.  Keep illegal violent drug dealers in bidness.

 

Anyway, page 420 seemed like a good place to note this.

I put Deranged AND billsfan1959 on ignore so I'm sure this page is just frothing with insanity aside from reddog's post, which made me chuckle.

 

If Rhino thinks he's opening eyes by revealing Biden is a bad candidate, he might consider next reporting that water is wet.

The Community Actions Team.  Duh. 

 

I'm thinking a number that is easy to remember.  Who can forget that day in September 2001 so I would suggest we so with Nine-Eleven.  

I'm thinking 3-4-3 or die.

I'm really tired of hearing people claiming they have a first amendment right to block the streets as part of their so-called "protest."

 

There is no first amendment right to block traffic. As Milton "Keynes" Friedman once said, in explaining the natural limitations on the libertarian philosophy of freedom, my right to swing my fist freely is limited by the proximity of your chin.

 

Just as my right to paint a message on a sign and display it does not extend to a right to spray paint that message on your house, my right to demonstrate does not extend to a right to illegally block the free movement of others. Intentionally blocking travelers on an open roadway, particularly when there is no option for a detour, is principally indistinguishable from Virginia’s definition of abduction.

 

Va. Code § 18.2-47(a): Any person who, by force, …, and without legal justification or excuse, … detains … another person with the intent to deprive such other person of his personal liberty … shall be deemed guilty of "abduction."

 

Personally, I have very little sympathy for anyone who blocks traffic as part of their protest. They have no idea what the consequences of their actions may be, but have unilaterally chosen to impose their will upon others. 

 

What if I’m on my way to the hospital with a child who is in agonizing pain with a compound fracture? Or perhaps I got the call that my dad is on his death bed and this is the last chance I’ll ever get to see him. Or maybe I’m on the way to check on a friend who is suffering from depression and just sent me a cryptic message hinting at suicide. Or maybe I’m on my way to the courthouse with a last-minute filing and my client’s claim will be lost if I can’t get there on time. Or maybe I’m just on my way home for a family event that is very important to my kids who I see far too infrequently because of my busy schedule. I could be in any one of these situations, or countless others, and unable to do anything about it because some self-righteous ####### decided his “right” to impose his will upon me is more important than whatever I may have going on.

 

I’m not suggesting they “deserve to die”, but a mob blocking traffic is inherently threatening. I don’t judge anyone who, in reasonable fear for their own safety, drives through the crowd that chose to put themselves in that position.

 

Additionally, if I’m looking for someone to burn sympathy calories on, the guy that decided to stand in traffic ain’t it.
