And this is why our country is in the state it is...supposed conservatives/constitutionalists/ religious/libertarians/economists/etc. can’t agree on anything while the dems along with their various “extremists” can and vote.

We (conservatives) allowed our institutions to be taken over by liberals. Education (huge, it’s our kids, the future, our greatest resource), and we just allowed the marxist takeover because reasons: doesn’t affect me, I homeschool, my kids go to private/catholic school (the latter for me), it’s only school what does it matter, blah blah blah. Well, it matters.

Entertainment. It’s been affected in every aspect. TV, Movies, News. Our kids watch. We watch.

Religion. For me, it’s the Catholic Church. Becoming more liberal in parish and school but I’m tired of fighting it alone. So, I give up. Until I don’t.

LE/Govt. The media and entertainment is presenting these views of justice that just never existed ever and even smart, logical thinking people are falling for it. I grew up in a fireman and cop family way way back and if I were ever a suspect or even questioned by cops the first thing I’d ask for is a freakin lawyer. Are people that stupid not to?

For example, I recall the jon benet ramsey case...and how appalled people were that the parents immediately asked for a lawyer/had a lawyer. That’s common. How could one NOT require that? Are some people just stupid? I’m innocent...really? Do people not know how our justice system, any justice system works? It boggles my mind.

I’ve decided some people are just morons and Darwin and all.

So maybe playing video games at 3am is normal to some people and I get that. Just like I get that people come out of bars at 3am yet the same people saying it’s ok for an 8 year old to be playing video games at 3 am would have a problem with a woman coming out of a bar or night out at 3am...there’s that.

Teen or adult woman coming out of a bar or coming home from anywhere at 3 am and an 8 year old playing video games at 3 am. What could possibly be the difference? Ugh

These sensationalized stories seem to happen in certain segments of our society. IMO

Locally we had two very similar events this week.

The cops reacted the way I described.

The only difference is that really bad guys were involved and they ended up dead after a considerable amount of time was spent attempting to negotiate a solution.

But it demonstrated that properly trained cops do not shoot people before they know who is what.
