newswars--2020-06-07--Canadian Journalist Dan Dicks Attacked By Antifa, Then Arrested

Canadian independent journalist and filmmaker Dan Dicks was swarmed and attacked by an angry left-wing mob during a BLM demonstration in Vancouver on Saturday before getting arrested himself .
Some in the crowd apparently recognized Dicks because he began getting assaulted by projectiles before police escorted him away from the confrontation .
Dicks explained that the mob accused him of being a white supremacist with no evidence .
“ I ’ ve asked people , tell me what I said or done that ’ s racist – nobody can do that , ” Dicks said .
“ Never , ever @ @ @ @ @ @ @ life.
” But the confrontation escalated to the point where police “ forcibly grabbed ” Dicks and pulled him away from the cheering anti-white crowd , only to take him to a different part of the demonstrations which further escalated tensions .
As tensions failed to de-escalate , police then took a different approach : they forcefully move Dicks to their police vehicle , arrested him and charged him with disturbing the peace and assault , which his footage clearly disproves .
Fortunately , they soon released him because of this .

“I’ve asked people, tell me what I said or done that’s racist – nobody can do that,” Dicks said. “Never, ever said or done anything racist in my life.”
But the confrontation escalated to the point where police “forcibly grabbed” Dicks and pulled him away from the cheering anti-white crowd, only to take him to a different part of the demonstrations which further escalated tensions.
As tensions failed to de-escalate, police then took a different approach: they forcefully move Dicks to their police vehicle, arrested him and charged him with disturbing the peace and assault, which his footage clearly disproves.

Nearly the same thing happened to Dicks during BLM demonstrations last week, however, he was not arrested.

People have been taking to Twitter en masse to tell Hillary Clinton to button it.
#STFUHillary was the second most trending US hashtag on the platform – rivaled only by #UFC250 – on Sunday morning.
It appears that the trend took off after some self-described Bernie Sanders supporters came by a Friday tweet by the Los Angeles Times, which brought up Clinton’s past scathing comments about the Vermont senator.
In Hulu’s docuseries ‘Hillary’, which premiered in January, the former secretary of state criticised Sanders as a “career politician”, claiming that “nobody likes” him and that he “got nothing done” during his years in Congress.
The comments sparked a controversy, given that Sanders was a front-runner in the presidential race at the time, but Clinton stood by them.
She told in an interview to the LA Times that Sanders supporters were being “relentless” and “ruthless” toward her and her camp four years ago, and accused the senator of turning a blind eye to their aggression.
Given Hillary’s own patchy record with the DNC – including a virtual takeover of the committee ahead of the 2016 election and her getting town hall topics in advance of debates – many Twitter users erupted in anger yet again.

Trump was literally selected by Hillary’s campaign to be her opponent, then she colluded with the media to make it happen.

Though he didn’t give a crowd size estimate, the chief of the Washington DC police says he expects Saturday’s gathering to be one of the biggest so far.
“We have a lot of public, open source information to suggest that the event on this upcoming Saturday may be one of the largest we’ve ever had in the city,” Washington DC Police Chief Peter Newsham told local media, adding that much of the city center would be closed to traffic from early in the day. Newsham did not give a crowd estimate. Local media has predicted tens of thousands of attendees.
Demonstrators in the Washington DC area are still sore over the national guard’s decision to use tear gas and rubber bullets to clear Lafayette Square for a presidential photo-op at St. John’s Church, angering the Episcopal Church in the process.
Further south, in North Carolina, Governor Roy Cooper is ordering all flags at state facilities to be lowered to half-staff from sunrise to sunset on Saturday to honor Floyd, who was born in Fayetteville. A televised memorial service will also be held in the city on Saturday, per USAToday.
On Friday, marches and gatherings took place in Atlanta, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, Miami, New York and Denver, among other places, while protesters massed again, in the rain, in front of the White House. The night-time protests were largely peaceful but tension remains high even as authorities in several places take steps to reform police procedures. Politicians and judges around the country also announced new restrictions on law enforcement powers and tactics, including a federal judge in Denver, who ordered city police to stop using tear gas, plastic bullets and other “less-than-lethal” devices such as flash grenades, claiming that too many peaceful protesters and journalists have been injured by police.

In Minneapolis, Democratic city leaders voted to end the use of knee restraints and choke-holds, where pressure is applied to the neck.
In California, Gov Gavin Newsom ended state police training of carotid restraints, and ordered officers not to use the tactic.
In New York, Gov Andrew Cuomo said his state should lead the way in passing “Say Their Name” reforms, including making police disciplinary records publicly available, while also banning the chokehold (which we thought had already been banned following the killing of Eric Garner).
“Mr Floyd’s murder was the breaking point,” Cuomo said. “People are saying ‘enough is enough’.”
The cause of the peaceful protesters received a major boost last night from the NFL, which admitted for the first time that it was “wrong” to oppose players who kneeled.
Once again, the demonstrators in the US expect sympathizers from around the world to join in, with more demonstrations at American embassies and consulates in Europe expected.
Already, thousands have gathered in London’s Parliament Square “in solidarity” with their American peers.
The protest, which has so far proven to be entirely peaceful, according to CNN. At one point, everybody too a knee in unison.
Once again Portland, Ore., roughly 20 adults were arrested and one juvenile was detained last night as peaceful demonstrations morphed into violent street battles into the night, as agitators threw bricks and bottles at cops.

newswars--2020-06-08--Media’s ‘Racial Injustice’ Blind Spot: Over 30 Shot In Another Deadly Chicago Weekend

Though largely overlooked and ignored in the now 24/7 mainstream network coverage of racial injustice in America , Chicago witnessed another deadly weekend of inner-city black on black gang-related violence , with over 30 people shot .
This after on the same Memorial Day weekend that George Floyd was heinously killed by police in Minnesota , Chicago had witnessed a whopping nearly 50 people shot in one of the city ’ s deadliest ever holiday weekends ( where ten died from their wounds , including young people ) .
At a moment “ Black Lives Matter ” chants can be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the now weekly reality of dozens tragically dying in black-on-black crime in Chicago and some other large cities ( a trend that tends to increase into the hot summer months ) remains a huge ‘ blind spot ’ in terms of the current ideologically charged media debate and public discourse .
The mayor has some advice , however : It also provides an uncomfortable example and opening for questioning the pervasive narrative of ‘ systemic ’ and ‘ structural ’ racism , and other core dogmas centered on the idea of rampant @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
These are BLM ’ s sacred dogmas which tend to shut out any dissenting black voice like the below : But concerning these sacred dogmas — belief in which inevitably results in advocates necessarily perceiving black oppression everywhere — this is a moment where we should dare to ask the following question : do the core claims of the demonstrators in the streets stand up to empirical analysis and scrutiny ?
One man did explore this below in an epic viral tweet thread .
Here ’ s what he said : “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I ’ m about to say .
I will possibly be called a racist or even a white supremacist ( even though I ’ m a brown man , who ’ s been beaten to a pulp by neo-Nazis wearing steel toed boots ) … ” …But maybe , just maybe , the fact that I am getting 100 % of my information from the black scholars in the picture – The Great Thomas Sowell , Glenn Loury , Shelby Steele , John McWorther , Coleman Hughes , Kmele Foster and Thomas Chatterton @ @ @ @ @ @ @ thought ?
I ’ ve been watching the narrative play universally over the heinous killing of George Floyd , and the complete and utter lack of facts about African Americans in The US has been infuriating .
Unfortunately , anyone who doesn ’ t submit to the dominant narrative will be called a heretic , a racist , a white supremacist etc .
1 .
Black Lives Matter don ’ t care about black people .
Want evidence ?
Name me a single time – just once – when they ’ ve protested @ @ @ @ @ @ @ black people ?
Whether in America or elsewhere ?
Why is this relevant ?
Because the biggest cause of death for black men aged 15-45 in USA is… other black men .
Compare to white people , where it ’ s traffic accidents for the younger portion and heart attacks for those over 35 .
Or how about the black lives in Sudan , East Timor , Libya ?
Why do we only ever hear from BLM when it ’ s a white person killing a black person ?
2 .
Speaking of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ doing the reverse .
Imagine every time a white person was killed by a black person , there ’ d be protests , riots , looting and social media campaigns .
First thing to notice is that it would be more frequent , because African Americans kill more white people in the US than white people kill African Americans .
Now what ?
Should we really start applying the race card every time there ’ s a murder involving more than one pigmentation ?
Where will it end ?
3 .
Police killings @ @ @ @ @ @ @ George Floyd is so visceral , by showing the casual evil with which officer Derek Chauvin kills George Floyd .
People are rightly outraged , and no one can honestly defend the officer , who rightly has been arrested and hopefully will spend his remaining years behind bars ( although the prosecutor has been idiotic in moving the case from 2nd degree to first degree murder – a burden of proof they will most likely fail to provide ) .
But… The only reason people are up in arms about these is that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ disproportionately on these incidents when the victim is black and the officer isn ’ t .
Don ’ t believe me ?
Let me prove it : You ’ ve all heard of Tamir Rice – a 12 year old black boy who was murdered when brandishing a toy gun .
It was all over the news , there were riots and marches , hashtags and universal condemnation all over the media .
But how many of you have heard of Daniel Shaver ?
A white man who was showing his friends a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who entered his store , and was killed for this ?
You may remember the case of Sam DuBose , a black man who was shot dead for driving his car away from from the police .
The exact same thing happened to before that to Andrew Thomas , a white man driving away from the police .
None of you have heard of him .
Alton Sterling was a black man shot dead by the police when reaching into his pocket for his wallet – a travesty .
The same thing happened @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Sterling made national headlines , none of us heard a word about Noble .
Loren Simpson was a white teenager who was shot dead by the police in eerily similar circumstances as George Zimmerman killed Trayvon Martin .
You ’ ve not heard of the former , but demanded justice for the latter .
You ’ ve not heard of James Boyd , Alfred Redwine , Brandon Stanley or Mary Hawkes .
But you ’ ve heard of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile .
Because the only times police killings make the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and the officer isn ’ t .
Here are the FBI , NCJRS and BJS statistics : For every 10,000 black people arrested for violent crime , 3 are killed by the police .
For every 10 , 000 white people arrested for violent crime , 4 are killed by the police .
In 2019 , 49 unarmed people were killed by the police .
9 were black .
19 were white .
The likelihood for a black person being shot by the police is as high as being struck by lightning .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ every single post on Instagram and Twitter is in support of Black Lives Matter and denunciation of police in America… Sound good , don ’ t they ?
Such powerful words… and completely inaccurate .
First , let ’ s see what the claims being made are : Both insinuate built-in racism within various official institutions ( police , law , governments etc ) .
Yet , when they are challenged , by asking the proponents to provide *evidence* for these , nothing is provided .
Name one single law that is targeting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ There isn ’ t one .
If the police is “ systematically ” anti-black , explain how it is possible that 20 % of the Police Force in America is black ( African Americans in America constitute roughly 14 % of the population , meaning that blacks are *overrepresented* within the police force ! )
?
Now , imagine how incredibly racist it is to say that the 100,000 plus black police officers are too stupid to know that they are working inside and within a racist institution ?
That really is racism @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out and said anything ?
?
?
None of them have gone on 60 Minutes and said “ We are being trained to be racists ” ?
Seriously ?
How about governments ?
Well , let ’ s leave aside the fact that America just had a two-term black president ( whose second name was Hussein , by the way ) .
Some of America ’ s worst run cities have black mayors , black governors and majority black councils .
Look at two of the worst cities in America to be black @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is it that a place where the people in power are black can be *worse* for the African American Community , than cities that aren ’ t run by black politicians ?
This is a knock-down argument .
People often look at the economic disparities between blacks and whites , and claim it to be evidence for institutionalized racism .
It says something about the power of a narrative , when it has been debunked decades ago – by BLACK ECONOMISTS ( like The Great Thomas Sowell ) – yet the myth persists @ @ @ @ @ @ @ point in human history has any two groups of people had the same level of wealth or income as each other .
It would be an absolute miracle to expect that people with different backgrounds , cultures , histories , values and ethics to have the same level of wealth .
This is even true within so called races – compare for example Black Americans ( generational ) vs Black Immigrants… particularly the ones from West Indies ( Jamaica , Barbados etc. )
.
You couldn ’ t tell these people apart , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ whatever racism is in place for one group must by definition be applied for the second group .
But what they have is completely different values and work ethics ( the Jamaicans arriving in the US does so commonly to achieve greater heights than what he or she can in their home country ) .
Whatever level of systemic racism exists , they are subjected to it as much as the African American .
Yet , already in the 1970 ’ s ( !
!
! )
, when racism was far more @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Americans from the West Indies were earning 58 % more than the Black American whose generations go back centuries in the United States .
How could that be , if there ’ s supposed to be such a thing as “ systemic racism ” ?
Disparities are only proof of disparities .
Just because Group X doesn ’ t have the same as Group Y , doesn ’ t mean that it ’ s explained by racism .
And why does this so called “ White Supremacy ” only run against one group @ @ @ @ @ @ @ t it run against Asian Americans , who out earn White Americans by over 60 % ?
Why doesn ’ t it apply to Jewish Americans ?
Or Indian Americans , all of whom earn more than… White Americans ?
?
Maybe there ’ s something else going on… ?
In 1965 , Daniel Patrick Moynihan published his report “ The Negro Family : The Case For National Action ” , where he saw that African American households were 25 % single mothers – a frightening statistic that would have devastating consequences .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ Red Lining have all been removed from the books , Martin Luther King Jr. and The Civil Rights Movement made tremendous strides and we ’ ve now even had a black two-term president .
But , today , black households with no paternal figure , and only a single mother constitute SEVENTY FIVE PERCENT of all black households in America !
!
!
SEVENTY FIVE !
!
!
!
Now you tell me , which is the better explanation for young black children ending up in a life of crime – the lack @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mythical , non-explainable entity known only as “ institutional racism ” , which for some reasons doesn ’ t apply to Nigerian immigrants , to black immigrants from West Indies , to Indian people , to Jewish people , to Asian Americans… ?
Read the rest of the Twitter thread , with source links , here .

Though largely overlooked and ignored in the now 24/7 mainstream network coverage of racial injustice in America, Chicago witnessed another deadly weekend of inner-city black on black gang-related violence, with over 30 people shot.
“Three people are dead and at least 28 others have been injured in shootings across the city this weekend,” a Chicago NBC affiliate reports.
This after on the same Memorial Day weekend that George Floyd was heinously killed by police in Minnesota, Chicago had witnessed a whopping nearly 50 people shot in one of the city’s deadliest ever holiday weekends (where ten died from their wounds, including young people).
At a moment “Black Lives Matter” chants can be heard overtaking most every major American city, the now weekly reality of dozens tragically dying in black-on-black crime in Chicago and some other large cities (a trend that tends to increase into the hot summer months) remains a huge ‘blind spot’ in terms of the current ideologically charged media debate and public discourse.
The mayor has some advice, however:

It also provides an uncomfortable example and opening for questioning the pervasive narrative of ‘systemic’ and ‘structural’ racism, and other core dogmas centered on the idea of rampant minority oppression and ‘white privilege’.
These are BLM’s sacred dogmas which tend to shut out any dissenting black voice like the below:
I’m a 33 year old black male and I have NEVER been oppressed. I eat, sleep and shit just fine like the next person. I can buy a car, I can buy a home, I can obtain a passport, I can WORK. I love this great country and proud to be an American. DAMN IT I’m not oppressed 🗣 — James (@James78141017) June 6, 2020
But concerning these sacred dogmas — belief in which inevitably results in advocates necessarily perceiving black oppression everywhere — this is a moment where we should dare to ask the following question: do the core claims of the demonstrators in the streets stand up to empirical analysis and scrutiny?
One man did explore this below in an epic viral tweet thread. Here’s what he said:

1. Black Lives Matter don’t care about black people. Want evidence? Name me a single time – just once – when they’ve protested against black people being killed by other black people? Whether in America or elsewhere?
Why is this relevant?
Because the biggest cause of death for black men aged 15-45 in USA is… other black men. Compare to white people, where it’s traffic accidents for the younger portion and heart attacks for those over 35.
Or how about the black lives in Sudan, East Timor, Libya?
Why do we only ever hear from BLM when it’s a white person killing a black person?

2. Speaking of which – imagine if white people started doing the reverse. Imagine every time a white person was killed by a black person, there’d be protests, riots, looting and social media campaigns. First thing to notice is that it would be more frequent, because African Americans kill more white people in the US than white people kill African Americans. Now what?
Should we really start applying the race card every time there’s a murder involving more than one pigmentation? Where will it end?
3. Police killings. The video of the murder of George Floyd is so visceral, by showing the casual evil with which officer Derek Chauvin kills George Floyd. People are rightly outraged, and no one can honestly defend the officer, who rightly has been arrested and hopefully will spend his remaining years behind bars (although the prosecutor has been idiotic in moving the case from 2nd degree to first degree murder – a burden of proof they will most likely fail to provide).
But… The only reason people are up in arms about these is that the social media and MSM attention focuses disproportionately on these incidents when the victim is black and the officer isn’t. Don’t believe me? Let me prove it:
You’ve all heard of Tamir Rice – a 12 year old black boy who was murdered when brandishing a toy gun. It was all over the news, there were riots and marches, hashtags and universal condemnation all over the media. But how many of you have heard of Daniel Shaver?
A man–he happened to be white–followed precisely the white police officer’s instructions as he crawled toward the cop. The cop still shot the man dead. Jury acquitted cop. No one protested, media took no notice, no one even knows about this. https://t.co/3xch6lQPQI — George Szamuely (@GeorgeSzamuely) June 2, 2020
A white man who was showing his friends a scoped air rife used to exterminate birds who entered his store, and was killed for this?
You may remember the case of Sam DuBose, a black man who was shot dead for driving his car away from from the police. The exact same thing happened to before that to Andrew Thomas, a white man driving away from the police. None of you have heard of him.
Alton Sterling was a black man shot dead by the police when reaching into his pocket for his wallet – a travesty.
The same thing happened to a white guy named Dylan Noble. Sterling made national headlines, none of us heard a word about Noble. Loren Simpson was a white teenager who was shot dead by the police in eerily similar circumstances as George Zimmerman killed Trayvon Martin.
You’ve not heard of the former, but demanded justice for the latter. You’ve not heard of James Boyd, Alfred Redwine, Brandon Stanley or Mary Hawkes. But you’ve heard of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile.
Because the only times police killings make the news is when the victim is black and the officer isn’t. Here are the FBI, NCJRS and BJS statistics:
For every 10,000 black people arrested for violent crime, 3 are killed by the police.
For every 10, 000 white people arrested for violent crime, 4 are killed by the police.
In 2019, 49 unarmed people were killed by the police. 9 were black. 19 were white. The likelihood for a black person being shot by the police is as high as being struck by lightning.
Yet, we are seeing riots, every single post on Instagram and Twitter is in support of Black Lives Matter and denunciation of police in America…
4. “Systemic Racism” / “Institutionalized racism”.
Sound good, don’t they? Such powerful words… and completely inaccurate. First, let’s see what the claims being made are:
Both insinuate built-in racism within various official institutions (police, law, governments etc).
Yet, when they are challenged, by asking the proponents to provide *evidence* for these, nothing is provided. Name one single law that is targeting exclusively black people. Just one. There isn’t one.
If the police is “systematically” anti-black, explain how it is possible that 20% of the Police Force in America is black (African Americans in America constitute roughly 14% of the population, meaning that blacks are *overrepresented* within the police force!)?
Now, imagine how incredibly racist it is to say that the 100,000 plus black police officers are too stupid to know that they are working inside and within a racist institution? That really is racism. And none of them have come out and said anything???
None of them have gone on 60 Minutes and said “We are being trained to be racists”? Seriously?
How about governments? Well, let’s leave aside the fact that America just had a two-term black president (whose second name was Hussein, by the way).
Some of America’s worst run cities have black mayors, black governors and majority black councils. Look at two of the worst cities in America to be black in: Baltimore and Chicago. Why is it that a place where the people in power are black can be *worse* for the African American Community, than cities that aren’t run by black politicians? This is a knock-down argument.
5. Disparity.
People often look at the economic disparities between blacks and whites, and claim it to be evidence for institutionalized racism. It says something about the power of a narrative, when it has been debunked decades ago – by BLACK ECONOMISTS (like The Great Thomas Sowell) – yet the myth persists.
First of all, at no point in human history has any two groups of people had the same level of wealth or income as each other. It would be an absolute miracle to expect that people with different backgrounds, cultures, histories, values and ethics to have the same level of wealth.
This is even true within so called races – compare for example Black Americans (generational) vs Black Immigrants… particularly the ones from West Indies (Jamaica, Barbados etc.).
You couldn’t tell these people apart, just by looking at them, and whatever racism is in place for one group must by definition be applied for the second group.
But what they have is completely different values and work ethics (the Jamaicans arriving in the US does so commonly to achieve greater heights than what he or she can in their home country). Whatever level of systemic racism exists, they are subjected to it as much as the African American.
Yet, already in the 1970’s (!!!), when racism was far more prevalent than it is today, Black Americans from the West Indies were earning 58% more than the Black American whose generations go back centuries in the United States. How could that be, if there’s supposed to be such a thing as “systemic racism”?
Disparities are only proof of disparities. Just because Group X doesn’t have the same as Group Y, doesn’t mean that it’s explained by racism.
And why does this so called “White Supremacy” only run against one group of Black Americans? Why doesn’t it run against Asian Americans, who out earn White Americans by over 60%? Why doesn’t it apply to Jewish Americans? Or Indian Americans, all of whom earn more than… White Americans?? Maybe there’s something else going on…?
In 1965, Daniel Patrick Moynihan published his report “The Negro Family: The Case For National Action”, where he saw that African American households were 25% single mothers – a frightening statistic that would have devastating consequences. Since then, Jim Crow laws and Red Lining have all been removed from the books, Martin Luther King Jr. and The Civil Rights Movement made tremendous strides and we’ve now even had a black two-term president.
But, today, black households with no paternal figure, and only a single mother constitute SEVENTY FIVE PERCENT of all black households in America!!! SEVENTY FIVE!!!!
Now you tell me, which is the better explanation for young black children ending up in a life of crime – the lack of a father figure, or the mythical, non-explainable entity known only as “institutional racism”, which for some reasons doesn’t apply to Nigerian immigrants, to black immigrants from West Indies, to Indian people, to Jewish people, to Asian Americans…?

newswars--2020-06-08--VIDEO: Driver Attacked By Rioters Blocking Streets at Protest in Seattle, Shoots One Attacker

A man who appears to be either Hispanic or a light-skinned African-American was filmed shooting an African-American rioter assaulting him as he drove near a group of protesters blocking the streets in Seattle on Sunday .
The media and Twitterati falsely reported this as a “ plowing ” attack carried out by a “ white ” man based off initial videos and wild speculation only to have an extended video and photographs of the man undermine their narrative .
Extended video shows the man was being attacked by multiple rioters while driving down a street which was blocked off at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ came to a full stop due to a blockage being in the road and was surrounded by attackers hitting his car .
He then shot one man who was reaching into his car and physically assaulting him .
Had this man actually wanted to “ plow ” through the crowd he could have just hit the gas .
Instead , he got out and walked into the crowd despite facing a tremendous risk to his life and walked through them to immediately turn himself into police .
The man was allegedly wearing a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that hasn ’ t been officially confirmed .
This clip , which only showed the second half of the man being attacked just before the shooting and has a man hysterically screaming and crying throughout , went viral first : This out of context video was also shared : Per usual , the shooter was labeled “ white ” and a “ white supremacist ” without any evidence all over Twitter but photographs showed he was either Hispanic or black .
Had the shooter been a white guy this would no doubt be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ probably just be ignored .
As I reported last week , tons of videos out of the Cicero suburb of Chicago showed Hispanic gang members defending their neighborhoods from African-American “ looters ” with sniper rifles and extended shootouts in the street and even though multiple people were killed it was barely even a story .

newswars--2020-06-08--This Is Exactly What Is Going To Happen If Police Departments Are “Disbanded” Or “Defunded” All Acro

This Is Exactly What Is Going To Happen If Police Departments Are “Disbanded” Or “Defunded” All Across America…

By now , you have probably heard that the Minneapolis City Council plans to completely disband the Minneapolis Police Department , and other major cities are considering significant cuts to the funding that their police departments receive .
Needless to say , such moves will only make our streets even more unsafe , but a lot of people out there are so upset about police brutality that they are ready to support such drastic measures .
In the aftermath of 9/11 , police departments all over the country were heavily militarized , and thousands of troops returning from our wars @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shift in policing culture caused enormous problems , and complaints about police brutality soared .
But instead of reforming law enforcement , many have now decided that the best approach would be to get rid of the police altogether .
Those that advocate for such an approach seem to believe that most people are inherently good , and that if the police are removed from the equation that we could build a police-free utopia where we all learn to get along with one another just fine .
But there is just one huge @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
That has been true all throughout human history , and it is most definitely true today .
Given the opportunity , there are a lot of people that will burn , loot , riot and harm others without even feeling bad about the pain that they are causing to others .
By nature , humanity is deeply selfish , and it has not been easy to organize us into civilized societies .
In order for a society to be governed by the rule of law , a relatively high level of morality @ @ @ @ @ @ @ American history that has been the case .
But now we have raised a new generation of Americans in an environment where we have rejected the core values that once governed our society , and we are beginning to reap the consequences .
If you doubt this , just look at what has happened to the city of Minneapolis .
Large areas of the city have been utterly destroyed , and the Minneapolis City Council has decided that the way to fix things is to “ end policing as we know it ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is going to stop criminals from raping , looting , stealing and killing ?
If you are reading this , perhaps you are thinking that you will just gun them down if they show up at your home .
But what if the criminals greatly outnumber your family and they have even bigger guns than you do ?
During the looting that just happened in southern California , a Los Angeles Times reporter asked a few of the looters why they were looting .
In response , one of the looters truthfully admitted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ because we can ” … If heavily armed police officers had been stationed on every street corner , the looting would not have happened because there would not have been an opportunity to loot .
But given an opportunity to indulge the selfish human nature , these looters gleefully grabbed it .
Down in Houston , rioters were actually filmed attacking a children ’ s hospital .
What an incredibly evil thing to do , and this is more evidence of how much our society has decayed .
If those young people had @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and morality , perhaps they would have turned out much differently .
Unfortunately , we have been teaching our kids that good is evil and evil is good for decades , and so what is happening now shouldn ’ t be any sort of a surprise .
Taking the police off the streets will not solve anything .
Instead , it will just give criminals a lot more opportunities to commit crimes .
Unfortunately , radicals are running many of our major cities now , and it looks like police budgets are about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ States… In New York City , lawmakers and policing reform advocates have called on Mayor Bill de Blasio to slash millions in police funding as the state budget faces what one official called “ economic devastation not seen since the Great Depression.
” In Los Angeles , four City Council members have introduced a proposal to reverse the mayor ’ s planned 7 percent police funding increase .
In Durham , North Carolina , protestors gathered at a local theater this week for a “ Defund the Police ” protest .
In Milwaukee @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by more than 65 organizations—called on the city to divest $ 75 million from the police department and to reinvest $ 50 million into public health , with the rest going to housing cooperatives .
In Philadelphia , where the mayor has proposed a $ 14 million increase in police funds , activists have been signing up in droves to testify virtually at a city budget hearing next week in protest .
If we want lots of civil unrest , rioting , looting , death , destruction and chaos , this is the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the truth is that we need the police .
Yes , police brutality is a major problem in this country and I have been writing about that for many years .
Police culture in the U.S. must change , because that is the only way that public faith in the police will ever be restored .
But abandoning our communities to the criminals is not any sort of a solution at all .
Instead , it will just unleash a torrent of evil on our streets .
As things stand , approximately four @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as though “ things in the country are out of control ” … Sadly , this is just the beginning .
More civil unrest , rioting and looting are coming , and it is going to be a very dark chapter in our history .
If the rioters come to your neighborhood , the first thing many of you will do will be to pick up the phone and call the police .
But if you live in one of the communities where the police will be disbanded , they soon won ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the phone to answer you .

But there is just one huge problem.
People are not inherently good. That has been true all throughout human history, and it is most definitely true today.
Given the opportunity, there are a lot of people that will burn, loot, riot and harm others without even feeling bad about the pain that they are causing to others. By nature, humanity is deeply selfish, and it has not been easy to organize us into civilized societies.

If you doubt this, just look at what has happened to the city of Minneapolis. Large areas of the city have been utterly destroyed, and the Minneapolis City Council has decided that the way to fix things is to “end policing as we know it”…
A veto-proof majority of Minneapolis City Council members announced Sunday during a rally at Powderhorn that they are planning to disband the police department. City Council members said they will invest in community-led safety initiatives instead of the police department. “Our commitment is to end our city’s toxic relationship with the Minneapolis Police Department, to end policing as we know it, and to re-create systems of public safety that actually keep us safe,” Minneapolis City Council President Lisa Bender said at Sunday’s community meeting.
So without any police, who is going to stop criminals from raping, looting, stealing and killing?
If you are reading this, perhaps you are thinking that you will just gun them down if they show up at your home.
But what if the criminals greatly outnumber your family and they have even bigger guns than you do?
During the looting that just happened in southern California, a Los Angeles Times reporter asked a few of the looters why they were looting. In response, one of the looters truthfully admitted that “we’re doing it because we can”…
The young man flanked the shattered entry of a ransacked CVS in Santa Monica, where people had swept the shelves clean of everything from diapers to detergent. The man, who did not cover his face, admitted he was a looter. He did not apologize. “We’ve got no other way of showing people how angry we are,” he said. Out of the store ran another young man, this one holding a carton of eggs. He grabbed a friend and started scanning the street for targets: police cars. “We’re doing it because we can,” he said.
If heavily armed police officers had been stationed on every street corner, the looting would not have happened because there would not have been an opportunity to loot.
But given an opportunity to indulge the selfish human nature, these looters gleefully grabbed it.
Down in Houston, rioters were actually filmed attacking a children’s hospital. What an incredibly evil thing to do, and this is more evidence of how much our society has decayed.
If those young people had been raised in an environment of faith and morality, perhaps they would have turned out much differently. Unfortunately, we have been teaching our kids that good is evil and evil is good for decades, and so what is happening now shouldn’t be any sort of a surprise.
Taking the police off the streets will not solve anything. Instead, it will just give criminals a lot more opportunities to commit crimes.

In Philadelphia, where the mayor has proposed a $14 million increase in police funds, activists have been signing up in droves to testify virtually at a city budget hearing next week in protest.
If we want lots of civil unrest, rioting, looting, death, destruction and chaos, this is the right path.
In the end, the truth is that we need the police. Yes, police brutality is a major problem in this country and I have been writing about that for many years. Police culture in the U.S. must change, because that is the only way that public faith in the police will ever be restored.
But abandoning our communities to the criminals is not any sort of a solution at all. Instead, it will just unleash a torrent of evil on our streets.
As things stand, approximately four out of every five Americans already feel as though “things in the country are out of control”…
Four in five registered voters in a new poll feel “things in the country are out of control” as the death toll from the coronavirus pandemic approaches 110,000, unemployment remains at a level not seen since the Great Depression and protests continue across the U.S. According to an NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll released Sunday, just 15% of voters think matters in the USA are under control and perceptions of the economy are at their worst since the end of President Barack Obama’s first term, when the country was still recovering from a recession.
Sadly, this is just the beginning.
More civil unrest, rioting and looting are coming, and it is going to be a very dark chapter in our history.
If the rioters come to your neighborhood, the first thing many of you will do will be to pick up the phone and call the police.
But if you live in one of the communities where the police will be disbanded, they soon won’t be on the other end of the phone to answer you.
