Democrats Can't Condemn Violence, Including Violence Against Police
Townhall ^ | June 27, 2020 | John R. Lott, Jr.

What does defunding the police really mean? Well, just look at the looting and violence that happened when police were ordered to stand down during recent riots.

Come on, Mr. Lott, do not confuse us with your facts and statistics to the contrary. The police are racist factotums of the White patriarchy because the MSM/Democrats say they are..

Long ago, I think possibly in the National Review (which I have boycotted for years) a columnist wrote that when he went to work each morning his on street curb parking area always had a shower of little bright blue glass pieces like pebbles. He took a while to catch on and then saw they were from broken windows.

Why? There were breakins every day without fail and new cars were either robbed or stolen. This meant dozens of crimes were going on unhindered.

He asked police and they said people simply accept it, live with it, and turn the cases in to their insurance companies. Part of life these days.

My idea today: Are the dimwitted, passive American people now going to accept looting, burning and then rapes, muggings and beatings plus home invasions and carjackings with their young children in the cars? “Part of life. Get used to the New Normal.” No cops or very few cops left to call.

As I said months ago, Trump has to push LAW AND ORDER. He is now doing that. Good.

Defunded police, closed down police stations, demoralized and hounded police, handcuffed officers who are afraid to be impolite to a man with a long blade slashing at victims lest they themselves get hauled before a BLM tribunal and then jailed.

If that is what Americans accept, then screw them.

As always on my posts, the FR people and 62,979,636 Trump voters are exempted.

Law and Order.

The dems think that rioters, looters, vandals, and arsonists make up a big portion of their voter base. They also look at the same rioters, looters, vandals, and arsonists as the footsoldiers of their party and will bring them to power. They are willing to burn the entire country to the ground in their quest for power.

They can't because it's happening on their watch in the cities they run. To condemn it would be to condemn their failed policies.

Wife and I talked about this today, we could be seeing a return to medieval feudalism.

Those with the means will hire private security and build walls around their domains. Outside the walls, it's anarchy and chaos for the common folk.

Don't the masses see that what they are asking for? Did we forget what the basic nature of man is?

Who is Townhall kidding?

The Democrat Party doesn’t just condone violence against police, it encourages it.

The Democrats support non-violent violence.

It is violent violence they don’t like. ;-)

"Are the dimwitted, passive American people now going to accept looting, burning and then rapes, muggings and beatings plus home invasions and carjackings with their young children in the cars?"

Not sure about "dimwitted". I still want to believe that most Americans still believe in the rule of law and therefore follow the concept that "we" elect representatives to insure our Constitutional Rights are protected. Thereby protecting us from the mob.

I am praying that sooner rather than later those representatives will get the message and move to stop the lawlessness in the land.

If they don't many conservative Americans will loose faith and begin protecting themselves by violent measures.

The Silent Majority will awaken and it will get much bloodier out there.

Good post.

Of course, the way the feudalism works is that new warloads try to replace the old ones—so you end up with a state of perpetual war—with no rules and no law for anyone.

With no rules and no law, capital formation becomes impossible, so everyone drifts into poverty.

I'm waiting for the next shoe to drop.

In the future, Local law enforcement is not only defunded, it's made illegal. Can't have local hicks interfering with REAL law enforcement (the Feds).

There will still be laws, just selective enforcement. The peons can rob each other all they like, but a protected prince gets justice if he's wronged. If you mess with the King's deer, you will find out cops still exist.

This saves the Feds a lot of money since they don't have to protect most of the people any more. This puts your average peon in a spot, since guns are no longer legal for the masses. Law won't protect you, can't protect yourself. Capital formation is futile when you can't hold onto it.

Not quite the Dark Ages but pretty close, right?

True, I may overstep myself by calling the 50% of the American people dimwitted and passive. My anger is urging me on to say it.

But if only if we totally deny all polls then all is okay.

Polls may be setups and part of the plan, as every year. But 2018 as polls mostly predicted actually was the year Pelosi and Schiff took over the House and got started on destroying Trump by impeachment of an innocent man. They didn’t really care about Ukraine.

Here in Michigan the big talk from fellow conservatives and me about how people were simmering with anger about the politically motivated lockdowns and would get mad at Whitmer? Just as I feared, local poll said 55% approve of her actions and disapprove of Trump’s response. Incredible. They say “kick me, Gretchen, kick me harder. Ooooooh.”

How, how, how can the fools in America say Trump should be blamed because of the Chinese Virus, the BLM riots and burning, and the racism of old statues?

NOT HIS FAULT.

And truth is probably TX and FL and AZ are in deep close contest trouble, with MI,OH,PA and others at this point going to the Dems. Later they will tighten a lot.
A catastrophe. I believe the suburban women are against Trump for being masculine and saying “harsh” things-—idiots—what should he do, hug BLM? Sorry Covid, you know.

If BLM and Dems overplay their hand (kidnap children for the BLM cause, bomb buildings like SDS Weather Underground did, and burn cities to show their hatred of us, and Dems demand reparations) then Trump can make a comeback.

I know he can win this.

And the Silent Majority is REALLY silent unlike 1968. They had better get a lot less silent——fast.

Please, somebody tell me to simmer down and take it easy. My wife will appreciate that.

Your wife and mine are of the same mind. But to be honest it sounds as if we are cut from the same cloth. As much as I tell myself to relax and take deep calming breaths my mind just doesn’t listen.

That said I have long ago concluded that polls can be rigged to say what the pollster wants said.
