Chief Carmen Best was not the best warrior for the people of Seattle. She let Antifa thugs run rampant, complaining that if they wanted her to do more, she needed a bigger budget. A few months later, Antifa and BLM and lots of street criminals went-a-rioting and cop bashing, more or less with Seattle’s blessing.

The Land Where Everything is Policed Except Crime
Mark Steyn’s title is recycled here without remorse or regret becasue it nails “it” on the head. Please do him the favor a click, and perhaps a listen since we stole the headline, because while he is talking about the UK cops in this instance, there is bleed over into current-day America.
Innocent until being arrested
Not too long ago, a Grok post made a couple of interesting claims. First, that ‘people are not innocent victims if they are injured in the struggle to arrest them’. Second, that ‘to protect the public, police are charged to complete an arrest even if there is resistance’.
I beg to differ with both claims.
Is Defunding the Police an Attack on America?
Heather MacDonald is the author of The War on Cops. She strips away the usual emotionalism from the issue turning to the statistics about the players and the situations she brings clarity to an emotional issue. The numbers are shocking.
Police Associations in US Cities Form SuperPAC to Oppose “Defund Politicians”
Several police associations in major cities have gotten together to form The Protect and Serve PAC, based in Fort Worth Texas. It will be looking to get involved in contests where they can move the needle away from candidates running to defund the police.
No Police No Problem … Really?
No shirt, No shoes, No police, No problem. Cities deciding to cut their police funding should stop and ask: Who was Jimmy Hoffa? Maybe they could be cutting their own supply lines. Would that be an issue? What percentage of food, hardware, lumber, electrical supplies, etc. comes by a truck?
Message from Minneapolis
Minneapolis is not yet at Chicago’s level of crime but violent crime is surging. Give it some time. They have determination, no commonsense, and are trying very hard. And it looks as though they are on the path to “success.”
ANTIFA Protesters Block Street so Austin PD Sends in the Cavalry – Yes, Horses!
Austin is about as liberal a city as you get east of San Francisco (I read that somewhere) so this is all that much more amusing. A crowd of ANTIFA jerks is blocking a city street. They won’t move. So, what does the Austin Police Department do? They move them with several thousand pounds of horseflesh.
Seattle Resolution Replaces Police with “trauma-informed, gender-affirming, anti-racist” Groups
The Seattle City Council has the resolution to abolish the police. The “replacement” is a “community-led” safety prevention program. What is that? Well, if you can afford it, private security. Everyone else is on their own.
Police: “You are on your own.” Civilian Disarmament Groups: Why is Everyone Buying Guns?
Why are all the gun grabbers are confused that the number of people buying gun sales and taking firearms training classes have gone off the charts? Wait for it: Police Tell Business Owners in Seattle ‘You’re on Your Own.’

Media Spins Round Right Baby Right Round After Biden Agrees With Defunding the Police
Joey ‘Fingers’ Biden is a career corruptocrat who exposes his nude body to women against their will, touches girls, sniffs children, (there’s that rape thing), defrauds taxpayers, and the media covers for him. Their latest mission: Joe Biden does not want to defund the police.
Nationwide Police Organization That Supported Obama (Twice) Endorses President Trump in 2020
The National Association of Police Organizations has a good idea who has their back, and it is not Joe Biden. That should have been apparent years ago, but we’re talking about unions and other bragging groups that typically lean toward Democrats. Not this time around.
Have the squeaky wheels taken over?
Here in America, as in all free societies, we’ve always functioned under a simple, but essential concept – the principle of majority rule. It has its flaws, but it’s vastly superior to totalitarian regimes, dictatorships, and oligarchies.
“To protect the public, police are charged to complete an arrest even if there’s resistance”
The saddest thing about someone who loses his/her life at the hands of the police is that the death is almost always the consequence of the deceased’s resistance to being arrested. The likelihood of someone dying when he/she fully complies with police orders is nearly, and should be, zero. To protect the public, police are … Read more
Defunding the Police – An Insane Solution to a Fabricated Problem
It’s really hard to understand how we got to where we are today. The video of George Floyd’s death was deeply disturbing, but there has to be something else at work to bring about the widespread rioting, the wanton destruction of our national monuments, the vitriol directed at law enforcement officers, and the insane demands … Read more
Blogline of the Day – Giving the Babylon Bee a Run for its Money
Satire is starting to be a losing gig – the events of the day are often “worse” or at least outdo anything that the Babylon Bee or The Onion (two widely known satire sites dealing with politics and culture). Don’t think that either one of them can beat this.
NH Senate Democrats Vote to Give Police MORE POWER over Granite Staters
In a vote of 3-2 today, right along party lines, New Hampshire Senate Democrats voted to pass House Bill 687 – AN ACT relative to extreme risk protection orders. This legislation is better known as the ‘Red Flag’ bill. NYC billionaire Michael Bloomberg is spending a lot of money on lobbyists to get this bill … Read more
2020 Taglines
When this COVID-19 circus finally rolls out of town (if it ever does), there will be a number of taglines for this awkward period in US history. One of them will be “weaponized hypocrisy”. We’ve seen ridiculous levels of hypocrisy from the Left over the past 10 years, especially since Donald Trump got elected. They … Read more
The Democrats Are Accomplices to Chaos
It may be interesting to hear rational Democrats try to explain away the insane demands of their radical counterparts, but we really don’t need clarification. When those radicals call for defunding and abolishing the police, they mean exactly what they say.
