    The police in Philadelphia were told not to arrest anyone. Deputy Police Commissioner Melvin Singleton allegedly ordered police not to arrest any of the rioters. That makes no sense. If you don’t arrest them, they will just go ransack another business. Yet, somehow the police did manage to arrest ninety of them. Will the arresting cops be punished.“By the order of CAR-2, Philadelphia Police will respond to ‘priority’ calls only,” the alleged directive from the department obtained by Keeley said. “This means no calls for disturbance, missing person, stolen vehicle, burglary or theft will be answered.” Steve Keeley@KeeleyFox29·7hYesterday when police...

He claims to be a conservative- but always appears to be rooting for the opposition. He despises Trump & routinely posts polls, surveys, articles & anecdotes about how Trump is losing disastrously this election. I've let this idiot crawl into my head. I had this same sort of feeling 4 years ago & posted a similar thread. What do you truly feel is likely to be the outcome of this election? Not your hopes or fantasies-...
