Would you say the vast majority of American are not real people? 

 

Would you say that those cities are well run? 

[PaulFormerlyinSaudi]

I am so pleased we have moved on from the idea that 80% of Americans are not "real" and that one can somehow differentiate between the hell-holes of "Democrat-run cities" and the ideal condition of Republican-run cities, if there were any. 

[Mr King]

So because the democrats have been entrenched politically in large urban areas for the last 60 years or more, their gross incompetence, mismanagement, and outright malfeasance while running these areas is above criticism because of a straw man argument about republicans not controlling those areas? As for the people living in these areas, the ones who continue to vote for dem control, deserve what they get, good and hard. I only hope they stay in those areas and don't bring their stupidity to our havens of normalcy outside the cities. However, as the exodus from the blue state shithole known as California to red states continues, that is sadly not the case.

He has to otherwise his argument sinks faster than a submarine full of holes.  ALL of his arguments are strawmen, that at least should be obvious.

No. Murph made the bizarre claim that people who live in cities are not real. Please try to keep up with the class. 

[rmgill]

Ahh. I see, you're confusing a No True Scotsman argument with the left's favorite "unhumaning" tactic. 

Fair enough. 

So...can you answer my questions?

I would be happy to talk to you about your changing of the subject. Perhaps in another thread. Would you care to start one? At the moment I am still trying to explain that people who complain of "Democratic-run cities" are simply do not like American cities. 

[rmgill]

Do you think the open air defecation & urination, theft and violent attacks are indicative of well run cities? 

[Murph]

And he knows it he just has to miss characterize to demonize and to do everything he can to approve that Democrat run cities are not shit holes with needles all over the place human feces, a crime rate that is insane run by liberals and people who hate this country.

Former Director of FBI New York James Dennehy left the office for the final time to sad bagpipes playing outside 🤣

What a spectacle.

Dennehy was forced to resign after Bondi alleged he HID Epstein documents from her.

50 years in a federal pound you in the @ss prison.

This is why there should be a 110 or 115 minimum IQ to get certified as LE;

Given the rank stupidity of the local LE where Tim Pool lives, a solution to swatting might be for the victims to sue for $10-20M and use some of the tort proceeds to build a SWAT-proof house.

 

[rmgill]

Perpetrators of SWATing need to go to prison for attempted murder. 
 

One count for every person in the building and one count for every officer who responds.

Don't go after a tactic, the problem is the police state and the general delegation/surrender of personal responsibility to the State.

Men should handle their own problems, women should find a man who handles his own problems.  This has been over a century in the making, diverse anonymous urban living inevitably results in shitholes, driving the demand for State authority to "do something."  That something is always anti-freedom.  It's a gradient from anarchy to north Korea, we're far closer to that then people generally care to admit.  S/F.....Ken M

HORRY COUNTY, SC (WMBF) - A Horry County man is taking the county’s police department and one officer to court after claiming he was wrongfully arrested last year.

Gregory McDowell, a disabled veteran who spent 25 years as a federal law enforcement agent before retiring, filed the lawsuit against the Horry County Police Department and officer Ryan Coggins on Friday.

McDowell said that Coggins arrested him on Nov. 12, 2024, at his Conway-area home for making a false report. McDowell then spent two days in jail, held in “filthy conditions” until he made bond, the lawsuit states.

But McDowell claims that Coggins’ police report and affidavit were not consistent with what he said in his interviews days before his arrest about a neighbor possibly pointing a gun at him.

 

 

Quote

“That in fact the Coggins affidavit was false as was his statement that McDowell had a long history of bringing accusations of fraud and attempted assault against the third party,” the lawsuit reads.

 

Quote

Coggins revealed at the hearing he talked with other officers before arresting McDowell, and he was aware of a “previous or ongoing internal investigation prompted by McDowell,” the lawsuit states.

Well, there it is.

Yep, the officer in the stroke victim case should be fired as well.  If those are all the facts of the case.

Boy shot by police declared ‘clinically braindead.’

 

I spend my time going through the news every day. Part of my hobby. I used to be surprised that horrible killings like this happened in "nice places," in this case Idaho. I am no longer surprised. There are no "nice places," no place is a safe Mayberry. 

The police just lined up behind a fence and opened up on this child. 

If I were a prosecutor, I would seek the death penalty.
