And here's your weekly reminder:

Had Trump simply conceded the election, just like every other losing POTUS candidate in history, Ashli Babbitt would still be alive.

The "space uniform" comment should have been a clue.

Thanks for the heads up.

None of that incentivizes more qualified professionals to enter the force.

This is a jobs program for high school dropouts with GEDs also known as Cops.

Which is my point about re-appropriating more money towards salaries. Promise more money to be earned with the understanding that higher standards will be expected, more training will be implemented, and expectations in the field will no longer afford the "shoot first, ask questions later" philosophy legitimacy.

That doesn't refute anything. Again.

Swallow it.

That doesn't refute anything. Care to take another stab?

The problems law enforcement has will be solved by getting people on the force who really want to Protect and Serve, and Protect and Serve everyone, not just those they choose to.

For starters, the Blue Wall of Silence has to be eliminated. All that does is allow the behavior of bad officers to be hidden.

Up the salary to attract more qualified individuals, as you just described, and reform the unions. It would be a significant start.

This was fnkcin' hilarious to watch.

Highly recommend everyone take a look.

" But how they're bigger and stronger and more frequent"
Claim not supported by evidence. That is one the models have gotten wrong. Hurricanes have not grown in frequency or intensity by any real measure.

40 Years of Data Confirm Hurricanes Are Getting Stronger. Climate Models Were Right
www.sciencealert.com
...The most powerful storms on our planet have grown substantially stronger, and almost forty years' worth of hurricane satellite imagery suggest a warming planet might be fuelling the changes.
According to the data, the likelihood of a hurricane developing into a category 3 storm or greater, with sustained winds of over 177 kilometres per hour (110 miles per hour), has increased by about 8 percent every decade since 1979.
"Our results show that these storms have become stronger on global and regional levels, which is consistent with expectations of how hurricanes respond to a warming world," says climate scientist James Kossin from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)....

That's new to me. What's it refer to?

Libs need to stop with this Latinx stuff.

Latinos are not fond of it in any way and find it insulting considering it stems from liberal elites and "scholars" attempting to penetrate the Latino academia culture that has been growing in the US for decades.

Take it from me, an educator in SoCal: Latinos are not fond of non-Latinos pushing this. Every time someone mentions Latinx in a meeting, there's an obvious cringe amongst many of us. And I'm not even Latino. But the Latinos in the room are more and more up front suggesting that referring to them as Latinx is simply not necessary. Worse, it undermines legitimacy of people trying to make a point. Some in our leadership are being laughed at because they think they HAVE to use the term when they don't. Nobody but the Libs are demanding people use such terminology.

Time for the Left to swallow it.

Good luck, VISITOR_!!

To elect representatives. Seems the processes of our government, are yet another thing you are clueless about.

Hey BOAZ, systemic racism exists and is a significant factor in nonwhite individuals' economic upward mobility.

Completely out of context. But you do you, boo.

LOL

Yeah, sure. Big tough man you are. Weak little boy I am.

And if you're being honest, you're proving my point that there's plenty of 'space' here in the US.

So thanks, I guess.

Throwing money at the police doesn't solve everything.
#15 | POSTED BY CLOWNSHACK

I entirely disagree. Reforming the system to impede the power that law enforcement unions wield coupled with an increase in funding for police salaries will bring about a larger pool of qualified candidates. The more qualified candidates you get with a reformed hiring system, the less likely you'll have the amount of "bad apples" that are currently employed.

I've always advocated for throwing more money at the police for this very reason. Defunding the police was a catchy phrase with zero logic to back it up, which is why lefties were attracted to it like flies to chit.

Swallow it, CLOWNY. The current system is not sustainable and it has everything to do with money and power.

You're being obtuse.

pedantic?

HAHAHA!

"More than 20 major cities have reduced police budgets in some form, and activists are fighting to ensure that is only the start"

How does that equate to:

defund
/d"f'nd/prevent from continuing to receive funds.

That's not being pedantic. That's being accurate within the English language.

Sad you refuse to admit it, but the fact remains, no police department was defunded. Monies were cut, but you'd have to change the definition of "defund" to fit your argument, which you and TOR are making a pathetic effort here doing so.

Swallow it, ----.

Have you tried looking?
#10 | POSTED BY TOR

Read the article and searched Google.

No "defunding" I could find. Plenty of re-appropriation of monies, that would include, "cuts." But no defunding. Which is why you choose ignorance and refuse to answer the question.

I laugh at your attempt to redefine "defund" and "cut" to ensure you feel comfortable with your argument, though.

Now that's entertainment.

Swallow it.

The cut was the defunding.

It's no different than a drag act....aside from better music.

I'd say they are very different. Ever been to a Gwar concert? Or a drag show?

If you're equating the two, clearly you haven't.
