Apparently certain people think the correct punishment for “professional protesting” is a cracked skull, as long as it is administered by a cop. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

His conspiracy about the Democrats wanting to make police for liberal is a little far... No police, and being concerned about crime is a sign of privilege? Total asanine. I am for once grateful to live in a red state (never thought I would say that) where I don’t have to risk this foolishness. This is just total insanity. Minneapolis will never recover, and everyone who is middle class or wealthy will be fleeing (already are) in droves and the only people left will be unemployed and criminals.... Biden needs to get strong on this issue or he will lost many middle class white voters (blacks will vote for him not matter what, so there is no reason to do silliness to make BLM happy).... |

Because there is 5k KKK members across all of North America.... There are more BLM members than that in Atlanta alone.... KKK have not had a violent protest in years.... And, usually the violent ones are the counter protestors (who always outnumber KKK....) If KKK breaks curfew they would be arrested like anyone else... This is not an organizational issue, its a behavior issue... If anyone breaks a curfew will be arrested (and should).... BLM is far more dangerous than the KKK in the modern world, based on political influence and number of members... |

Yes I was in the NJ Guard when that happened.... Basically the City police merged into the county.... Mostly same people just different badge.... County Police are more under the State so that is the main difference.... This is not the same as having no police, the County Police just also have jurisdiction in the City Limits... Also, Camden is still one of the last places any sane person would want to live... I knew some of the cops (many were in the Guard) , its like being at war with a city. Just crime everywhere.... Gang run cities, constant gang shootings... I think it is the most dangerous city in the country scaled per capita... (it fluctuates around 1-3 various years I believe).... Not a good city (except for they have a pretty good outdoor theater for concerts, Tweeter Center). |

Less than half of the story....why not tell the whole story? A rebuilt and re-branded force is doing better. I am okay with that. That is not at all like having no police force responsible for the area...it is just a different one. Folks were vetted. The point is that we can do better...but there does have to be policing...just like in Camden. |

You have the patience of a saint for being able to watch that overly emotive, self-fellating, dramatic actress, Tucker Carlson, for a full 25 minutes. I couldn't do it. I'd rather drink a gallon of coconut milk mixed with cat urine than do that...and I'm allergic to coconuts. All of that said, he almost certainly says correct things on occasion. He talks so much that it has to happen sometime, as if by accident. Is there a transcript of this video somewhere or can you provide a slightly longer summary? I agree with most of the short comments you made, except about, 'Red State.' I would rather be shot and killed in the middle of the street during an attempted robbery--TODAY--than live surrounded by Southern Christian White people for two-and-a-half weeks. At least getting shot and killed would be over quickly, and I'd never have to remember it. "War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen..let us give them all they want." William T. Sherman |

Exactly another example taken out of context... Also, no privatization. County Police are not a private company..... |

Southern Christian Whites cause a lot of problems for you in the past or something? War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength |
