Defund the police?
[QUOTE=GeorgeStark;5231715]It's clear that you don't know shit about me. Plug "Ferguson Effect" into a search engine and do some reading.
ETA: I may well have more to say about this, but if so, I'll do it in the "Bullshit..." thread.[/QUOTE]Guys let it go. No one has defended anything. Stop buying the bullshit Fox and MSNBC is selling and open your eyes, read real facts. Plus this is a thread that neither party regardless of your affiliation would agree with. So stop being puppets to politics and go find some ass and report back. Geeessh. I'm still waiting for someone to show me how Chicago PD made more on OT (up 34% over 2019) in 2020 but somehow was defended. SMH. Puppets man.
Anyone got a new SW to talk about.

Anyone got a new SW to talk about.[/QUOTE]Not to be a dick but. "defund the police" was a BLM rallying cry this past summer. Just a fact. I do agree that CPD made more OT last year, no doubt about that. ! Ok back to the SW's LOL.

Angellis Angels trouble
William the owner of Angellis Angels.
Apparently took off and moved or is hiding in Los Angeles. He has a court date next week.
He knows he will lose his case so.
He took off and ran away to California.
Doesn't he know how extradition works?

I'm a minority, and in full agreement with George. Shit going to get serious when that pro crime bill takes affect this summer.

In theory, if not in practice, there are limiting principles in place for the police. They can do X but not why. Criminals don't recognize limiting principles. That makes them more frightening.
[QUOTE=Ump1969;5231196]George makes a good point about the police. It's kind of amusing if you think about it. Here we are for years, having been worried about too much LEO enforcement. Now we have to worry about the bad guys because they are not worried as much about the police.[/QUOTE]

Smh

So saying something and actually doing it are 2 different things. The point is there are dumb fucks everywhere don't take up the cause for either. Be smart and realize while we are fighting each other the politicians are becoming millionaires everyday. All that other shit is a diversion. Don't buy into it.

I'm surprised

Because neither side likes using here. SMH. The do good life is so important that, blue lives matter racist that killed cops on 1-6 decry or hobby, along with the tree hugging social cops on the left that claim or hobby is trafficking. So buying what they selling that's all I'm saying. It's a distraction and they get rich off of it because we let it happen.

Type of time
I already know what type of time someone is on when they use phrases like "SJW" and "BLM" condescendingly. "The police don't want to to effectively do their jobs because they're afraid of the minority backlash" I see that shit all over reddit on a daily basis. I'm just on here to talk about our hobby and read more stories.

Amen!

Don't buy into it.[/QUOTE]I make most of my decisions / opinions based upon my life experiences (54 years of age) what I have seen and experienced. I certainly do not need politicians or talking heads on cable news to influence me or my opinions. I mean I find the fact that Dr Seuss and now maybe Curious George are being "cancelled" as utterly ridiculous. The unchecked cancel culture truly has run amok.

Is having the totally reverse effect amongst my family and circle of friends than intended by said social justice warriors. Sadly, much worse than even 20 years ago.

Discussion over for me I really come get to get away from both sides of the political aisle honestly. And I got sucked in. Dammit.
