Best to have a fundamental understanding of the situation. The problem ain’t the poh-leese, as much as you want to focus on them.


I wouldn’t focus on them if they would just stop violating the Constitution. Is that really so much to ask for?

As far as the deep state, do you have any solutions?

I have never called for getting rid of or defunding the police, I just think we could work to ensure they stop doing the dirty work of the deep state.

As far as the only solution I have seen offered, I am in good company with our new SC Amy and Clarence Thomas.

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas on Monday said he disagreed with a decision by other justices to ignore a case about “qualified immunity,” the Supreme Court doctrine that often gives police officers accused of egregious misconduct a legal way to avoid personal accountability.

“I continue to have strong doubts about our ... qualified immunity doctrine,” Thomas said in his dissent. “Given the importance of this question, I would grant the petition for certiorari.”

“I write separately to register my disquiet over the kudzu-like creep of the modern immunity regime,” Trump Supreme Court shortlist member Don Willett said in a 2018 opinion for the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. “To some observers, qualified immunity smacks of unqualified impunity, letting public officials duck consequences for bad behavior—no matter how palpably unreasonable.”

Now, can ya’ll just chill about talking about this. If someone wants to discuss, they should be able without nasty comments. Stop letting those mean girls boss you around.
