I am not even sure we are in the same book...
For those who need scapegoats, of course. I didn't consider them a scapegoat, just a part of the larger problem. I hear about many large family gatherings, which can be verified by just driving around the area, and then lots of cases within that population area. That is part of the larger problem, too. |

68% of democrats, favor redirecting funds from the police to alternative first responders, such as social workers, drug counsellors and mental-health experts. de Blasio eliminated the NYPD undercover anti-crime unit, as gun crimes increased 350%, shootings were up 130%, and murders were up 25%. That unit was responsible for getting guns off the streets. Think an undercover social worker could have saved this kid? Come Election day, every one of those politicians who voted to cut the police budget will be re-elected, because democrats would rather watch their kids get shot dead in front of them before voting Republican. |

No. Despite driving the proposed Amazon headquarters and 25,000 jobs out of her own District, and NYC, AOC just crushed her well funded primary opponent by 52 percentage points. |

This was obviously done to troll Donny and get in his head. And this would seem to indicate that it worked: https://twitter.com/amerindependent/status/1282745730977771520?s=21 “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

It worked all right. The paint job cost NYC $7 billion. |

7 Billion? I think it was a waste of money, and a publicity stunt (money could have been used to help people in need), but there is no way that figure is even close.... |

That is unfortunate. Its sad many in the party are giving into base emotion.... We need a resurgence of moderate democrats. |

Not going to happen anytime soon. If you are moderate the Democrat Party will shut you out. It is owned by the leftist loons who want no cops and all socialism. The modern Democrat actually hates the USA and what it stands for. The President is a fink. |

This means a lot coming from a guy who calls any moderate republican a RINO. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

BLM protests didn't cause a spike? Might as well believe that the earth is flat as well. 😂😂 |
