A progressive learns that ‘defund the police’ only works when you’re rich and safe
New York Post ^ | Sep 11, 2023 | Adam B. Coleman

The division in America doesn’t just allow for people to access luxurious material goods, but also lets them act out a life of luxurious beliefs.

Void of real problems like choosing between eating or paying the rent and having legitimate concerns over their physical safety, America’s progressive elitists prescribe unrealistic solutions to problems they are personally distant from, which they can afford to be wrong about because the ramifications of failure don’t usually occur on their side of the tracks.

Reality begins where luxury ends, however, because it’s difficult to maintain a lavish fantasy when a nonbeliever robs you of your comfort or, in the case of Minnesota Democrat-Farmer-Labor Party official Shivanthi Sathanandan, robs you of your vehicle, your liberty and your children’s innocence.

Sathanandan shared on Facebook last week her horrible and violent experience of being carjacked by four young suspects in front of her 4-year-old daughter and 7-year-old son.

“I have a broken leg, deep lacerations on my head, bruising, and cuts all over my body. And I have rage,” she wrote. “These men knew what they were doing. I have NO DOUBT they have done this before. Yet they are still on OUR STREETS. Killing mothers. Giving babies psychological trauma that a lifetime of therapy cannot ease. With no hesitation and no remorse.”....

Her brush with the harsh reality of danger pushing her to demand justice and punishment is a far cry from a few years ago, post George Floyd’s death, when she was able to publicly indulge in the lavish rhetoric of progressivism as she advocated the dismantling of the Minnesota Police Department.

“We are going to dismantle the Minneapolis Police Department. Say it with me: DISMANTLE The Minneapolis Police Department. As allies, what can we do right now? LISTEN and LEARN from our Black siblings.”

No finger marks where a normal person would rub and look at their hand.

It would be all over and not look like little drops spattered about.

SHE WAS NOT HIJACKED BY "SUSPECTS". SHE WAS HIJACKED BY CRIMINALS. When individuals are identified as suspects they are entitled to presumption of innocence. When criminals assault women and children they are just that, criminals. No "suspects" have been identified.

I wish they’d broken every bone in her body. And I will make no apologies for saying it.

This is what you wanted. So why are you complaining. She was lucky that’s all they did.

In my 20+ years as an EMT I have never seen bleeding like this. No clotting and too runny to be real. There is also no evidence of bruising or a black eye which would be expected in an assault especially one which was violent enough to supposedly break her leg. Even her hair is still more or less coiffed. She may have been carjacked, but her being violently assaulted doesn’t seem to hold up.

Amazing how some can't see reality until it literally hits them in the face.

And some won't see it afterwards either.

“...and I have rage,” she wrote.”

Conservatives need to ask her why she HATES blacks, after writing this screed.

Oh for heaven sakes some of you. Get real. There are hospital and police records of her assault. You don’t fake a broken leg I can’t believe what I’m reading here about fake blood, etc. Geez. A conservative.

There’s an old saying that a conservative is a liberal that got mugged.

Black Victim To Black Victor
Black Americans are constantly lied to about the source of their community’s issues in an effort to profit off their pain and to make sure that they never leave the mindset of the victim. In order to move forward in American society, black people must be critical of all sectors of black culture and the people that profit off the mainstream black victim messaging. I believe that with honesty, love, ownership and responsibility, black Americans can leave behind the victim mentality for the truly empowering victor mindset. Once victor-hood is embraced, we can achieve a more peaceful union with the rest of American society and stop accepting conflict within the black community as a normality.

I have ZERO sympathy for this woman & her prior demands about defunding the police.

These idiots cannot see to the end of the day with their ‘choices’.

You just know she opened her yap and started into them, thinking she as a Leftist is entitled to special treatment.

They clearly were having none of it.

“These men persons knew what they were doing. I have NO DOUBT they have done this before. Yet they are still on OUR STREETS. Killing mothers. Giving babies psychological trauma that a lifetime of therapy cannot ease. With no hesitation and no remorse.”

How dare she make assumptions about the "chosen gender" of the thugs who attacked her!?

If she refuses to identify their race, then she should likewise not mention their sex - otherwise, she is just "promoting sterotypes!"

There are hospital and police records of her assault.

Have you personally examined those records, and verified that her statements are true?

Then shaddap!

Yes. Liberals always seek victim status. They get high on it. She couldn’t be in too much shock or pain if she was able to rush to Facebook with this story. All this with a broken leg? And there was never any reports of a hospital visit. Smells like a Jussie.
