“Once again, big city Democrat politicians have failed us.”

Of course. Interestingly, long-term Democrat mayors, like the first Richard Daley, would not be tolerated by the left of today. He would most likely respond to violence with aggressive policing, and would be roundly denounced because of it.

If you incessantly tell people they are ‘put upon’, many will eventually believe it. We are seeing the results.

Facts mean nothing to the Left. The Narrative is the important story.

Yes, the ‘Democrats own it’ is true, but that won’t stop big media and public schools from blaming everything from white privilege to Donald Trump to income inequality.

You know the routine - if they can’t spin, they lie.

Why hasn’t the National Guard been deployed?

Why would a West Pointer want to be a cop?

The use of deadly force is required when feral beasts, infected with rabies (Demonicrat or otherwise), violently attack people.

People get the kind of government they deserve.

When the politicians you elect stop supporting the police that maintain civil order, and start prosecuting the police for doing their jobs guess what happens. The police will, invariably, stop doing their jobs. They will be slower to respond, they will be slower to react, until they are reduced to simply filing crime reports.

We can already see the results of this in Baltimore, Chicago, and St. Louis. Look for all the chocolate cities to follow suit. Welcome to the new normal.

With all due respect and admiration for those who are, I do not understand why anyone would want to be a Law Enforcement Officer at this point.

I really don't.

I say that as the father of a young man pursuing a degree in Crimial Justice & Law Enforcement who wants to be a LEO.

I wish he'd choose something else. I really do.

Chicago appears to have found the correct answer to the plague of perpetual black violence. Appoint a black, or woman as the chief of police.

Of course it doesn't help anything, and in many cases it makes things far worse, but it definitely makes blacks & Democrat politicians think they're doing something to solve the problem.

All these SOBs arrested for rioting/looting/throwing bricks and acid at police should lose their EBT Cards forever. No second chances. Hit ‘em where it hurts!

I have seen across the web, many folks asking:

Why the sudden increase these kinds of events (riots, protests, etc)

The better question would be “Who is paying for this? Just as the KGB funneled money into the Black Panther/Black Power organizations of the 60’s, this look very much like a repeat - only who is footing the bill this time?
