Some of the very people that say they want the police defunded are out trying to maim police officers. This is just stupid and city governments are letting it happen. Who in the heck thinks it is okay to run up to police officers and hit them with a cane?

It is time for mayors to step up and protect ALL of their citizens, not to demonize the police.

This is NYPD Chief Monahan taking a knee in solidarity with the BLM demonstrators two weeks ago:

This is one of the BLM protestors knocking some sense into him with a cane yesterday:

You have to realize this segment of the population HATES cops. They see cops as the enemy. I have talked to white collar, middle class blacks that hate cops. It runs deep. The same people hate anyone who lives a nice, middle-class life and tries to better themselves. They go around feeling sorry for themselves and blame others for all their ills. It is childish, but that is where all this is coming from.

Of course, cops stand in the
way of them behaving any
way they feel like behaving.
The 6 block section of Seattle
they took over is a crystal
clear example. Thugs and
crime ruled there with no
cops. Do people think police
dept's evolved because they
were not desperately needed?

Most of the people at that march were there to support the Police. The Soros and Ford Foundation supported BLM Corporation tried to stop it. 34 humanoids were arrested. Two of the protesters severely injured two NYPD brass. 35 were released without bail under Cuomo's law. The cretin with the cane was busted when cops found her smoking dope in her car. She put up a fight and tried to bite one of the officers. She was sent for psych evaluation, and will probably end up receiving a nasty letter. The DA’s here, were elected by the same bunch that elected de Blasio and his City Council. They campaigned on promising to prosecute fewer crimes than their opponents. They won’t prosecute anything less than murder.

Cool
How about BTS and their fans
BTS gave a cool million to BLM
BTS fans matched the million. How cool is that :-)

Someone posted bail for the Amazon woman who bashed the cops over their heads with a cane. She's back in her tent at the 'Occupy City Hall' camp. Cyrus Vance, the Manhattan DA will most likely seek to let her off with a nasty letter.

Well it appears the racist "BLACK LIVES MATTER" mural the mayor put in front of Trump Tower has been vandalized at least 3 times in one week. Once by a black woman screaming "re-fund the police!"

May you live in interesting times.

The stupidity continues in Portland. The city and state government did little to protect Federal property there and now they want the Federal folks to leave. I'm all for it. Leave. Move all Federal functions to another city that doesn't give in to people bent on destruction. Never look back. Stuff people could get done in Portland can now be handled elsewhere.

Protecting Federal property is something the Federal folks can do. The city and state could have prevented them from having to actually do it by protecting it from their treasured scumbags and just let them destroy local businesses and facilities.
