...When liberalism fails, it’s the cop who gets the call. And when he does get the call, it’s the liberals who will be the first to call for his head...

...It’s not enough that the cop has to clean up for the welfare state. He also has to be its scapegoat…

/article quotes

Never let a crisis go to waste. Dead cops, dead citizens. A means to an end. The calls for more “gun control” by the liberals/progressives/totalitarians marching in lockstep…2 steps FORWARD…

The totalitarians tap dancing on graves. The marxist agenda powers forward. Deceit, debt, death. The calling cards are left in its wake.

Very good article. Thanks for posting.

I say let the ghetto black communities fend for themselves. They clearly don’t want the help and want to live in a crime ridden hell hole.

First off, thanks to Smooth and Louis for the article and the ping. As always, it’s good stuff.

I am of two torn minds regarding the civilian police.

First, I am not blind at all to the increasing ferocity and violence of police responses since the Leftist takeover in 2008; only a fool or a Leftist (but that’s a tautology) would deny it.

We see almost daily reporting here on FR and social media of police abusing their authority, reveling in their new powers and tacticool gear bestowed upon them by a generous Federal government.

The laws of the land are being re-written in realtime at the Federal and state levels to make more criminals (remember Ayn Rand’s prescient statement?) And to enforce those laws, more and more police are being weaponized into something they should not be.

Recall the SCOTUS and their famous ruling? The job of the police is NOT to protect and serve - it’s to enforce the law. We haven’t forgotten.

And yes, police burn people out - remember Waco? Remember the epic chase of Dorner in Cali? And how many people are being “swatted” and harassed for little more reason than being anti-Obama?

Now, the second part (directed to Prosouth and Doc):

When you are starting a shift, whose commands and patrols are you doing, and where do those orders come from - the CoP and the watch officer, or the union shop steward? In the major cities, police corruption has been a generational problem, with the uniforms doing the bidding of others.

We see in Noo Yawk just now, where the NYPD is waking up to the fact that the Mayor and his boyfriends on the Left are all too willing to throw the beat cops to the lions to score political points. And now the PBA is calling for a work slowdown, and publicly mocking Hizzoner.

Hopefully, the police unions will realize they’ve been nothing but useful tools all along - and when the left is done with a tool, they drop it.

As I’ve said on others threads, my heart goes out to the remaining good cops out there who are trying hard to keep going in the face of mounting terror. Trying to deny there are bad cops is disingenuous at best; there are bullies with badges who will eagerly and ruthlessly enforce the law (not serve the citizenry).

But isn’t this what the Leftists want?? Divided loyalties? Suspicion? Doubt and mistrust? The only thing keeping the lid on the cities (more specifically, the urban kraals) is that thin blue line. And when the Leftists stage events like Ferguson and Noo Yawk and Sandy Hook, remember that everything is about The Agenda.

Most of the beat cops are useful to them. For now.

The police officer is the handyman of the welfare state. His job is to put his life on the line to plug the social leaks that the sociologists, consultants and social planners who made this mess had not foreseen. It’s his job to be there for a domestic violence complaint in a Florida motel at two in the morning or a failure of multiculturalism between two warring gangs in Oakland. He goes to places that the politicians don’t like to think about and deals with issues that the welfare state created and walked away from.

Great read...
