Many assumed protesters were to blame. But videos reveal a different culprit: the police."<br /><br />Kamala Harris tweeted this summary: "Some of what my Justice in Policing Act will do: -Ban chokeholds and no-knock warrants in drug cases -Establish a national use of force standard -End qualified immunity for police -Expand pattern and practice investigations -Establish a National Police Misconduct Registry."<br /><br />Remember this. Trump and the Republican Party have opposed, and will continue to oppose, any bi-partisan efforts at police reform and accountability. They LIKE it this way.Dave Dubyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03279370558997246976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134372208798387606.post-12491098385117577412020-06-08T14:22:05.173-04:002020-06-08T14:22:05.173-04:00Oh, I'm waiting with bated breath on a further...Oh, I'm waiting with bated breath on a further elaboration on how "leftists" ignore or undermine the Constitution AS WELL as reconciling the ongoing demonstrations with the phrase "Even for Americans of color, there is more prosperity, opportunities, and freedom in America', TP.TB3https://www.blogger.com/profile/18261016141806763895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134372208798387606.post-64655557681078450242020-06-08T12:20:10.430-04:002020-06-08T12:20:10.430-04:00From failed state to police state, huh?

I don't think so, my friend.<br /><br />While leftists have done what they could to either ignore or undermine our constitution (yes, some militant right-wingers are also guilty), America is still not a failed state. Even for Americans of color, there is more prosperity, opportunities, and freedom in America than nearly anywhere else in the world. <br /><br />Further, if the Democrats were to recapture the White House and both chambers of congress, this would not become a police state either, since the Democrats are seemingly bound and determined to eliminate the police in most major metropolitan areas. That, of course, is another knee-jerk reaction, the ramifications of which has not evidently occurred to these brilliant leaders of ours.<br /><br />Tyrellnoreply@blogger.com
