Defund Police is a Fantasy Story for the Left

July 29, 2022 Ray Cardello

The fact that Hakeen Jeffries is talked about in the Presidential contender talks is laughable.

It is … Read more

MANCHESTER, NH June 17, 2021—”The story written by John DiStaso in his NH Primary Source column is disturbing to say the least. That the NH Youth Movement, whatever that is, has “targeted” Manchester as a place that needs to defund police is as disturbing as it is dangerous.

You know how this goes, right? An Armed Society….

May 2, 2021May 2, 2021 Skip

The guy lying on the floor was quite impolite. The men standing there were very polite in telling the guy on the floor “Bad decisions yield bad consequences: Of course, Gun Grabbers all will kvetch that it was an unfair fight because the bad guy didn’t bring three other friends… I noticed that all three … Read more
