Coming late into this post, the comments upthread are most instructive.
We see here once again, that social media is a multiplier for urban or suburban flash mob scenarios. We also see the easy manipulation by the media to fit the desired narrative, and reality be damned.
We also see a situation where a feral mob gathers in an otherwise affluent neighborhood, outside of the urban kraals. And not only did the "party" break up, but the ferals returned later to vandalize the neighborhood - and the residents did nothing.
We are rapidly arriving at the threshold where the civilian police realize they can't win in any situation in the court of public opinion - whether they try to uphold the law, or at the least defend themselves.
And when the LEO's decline to respond and turn every precinct into Fort Apache, what will these residents do when they realize each one of them could be Travis at their own personal Alamo?
(HINT: they will cry out to Fedzilla for salvation)
The Watchman Ping List - FReepmail Old Sarge for details!
EXACTLY. Welcome to “ fill in with your Central/South American Dung Hole HERE”.
I do not think that it is anything new. It goes back to the Children of Israel demanding,: "Give Us a King".
The Founding Fathers gave us a system of Government consisting of three co-equal branches. It has been bastardized to where in 2008, a majority of voters in the United States of America cried, via their votes, Give us a king." And repeated the demand in 2012. It was done.
When LEO declines to do their job, can we decline to pay them?
Private security and lots of video recording.
For those of us outside the loop...
