That being said thanks for your information and take care. I had a feeling the cops weren't feeling very good due to the far left crazy people that are all over our poor cities. It is a shame, but they really took over. Not good.

No surprise there. Sadly, more of that to come for sure.

Wokeness is going to lead to authoritarianism - either left-wing authoritarianism through their own revolution, or right-wing authoritarianism through a right-wing counter-revolution.
Either way, democracy and freedom of speech are heading down a very dangerous path.

Bingo

I’m waiting for the criminals to bite the hands that feed them on a regular basis and see how long the left-wingers last with defending these clowns.

Come on, both you and I know that the left-wingers won't turn on the criminals - instead the left-wing will entrench itself even further in blaming sociological conditions for forcing the criminals into crime and demanding ever-expanding social programs to address these problems.

The entire ideological underpinning of Progressivism is that any problem can be solved through enough study, and that personal responsibility or choice can never be blamed - and Progressivism can never rest on its recent accomplishments, it must continually push the edge of the envelope. Continual 'progress' is inferred in its very name.

They’re already doing that, but when the criminals turn violent, loot, etc..., on them, there isn’t anyone to save them because they’re too weak to take care of themselves, the tide will turn. I always look forward to “be careful what you wish for scenarios” coming true and it’s too late to fix the situation.

I love the term “Progressivism”. It varies greatly depending on how it suits those that are so in favor of it.

What evidence? Killings of unarmed blacks by cops has decreased steadily every year for the past several years?

Many more unarmed whites than blacks are killed every year. Where’s the systemic racism?

The entire system in Atlanta is left wing but did nothing to stop it. so you have to defend them now. WHY DIDN'T THEY FIX IT?

Do you want an answer or are you just going to continue to repeat this question after people lay out several reasons why they didn’t / couldn’t fix it?

Where’s the outrage over fixing the huge percentage of black on black deaths vs 1% of black deaths by white police officers?

I am not even going to dignify that canned “rebuttal” with a response. If your response to allegations of criminal behavior among police is to point to criminal behavior among criminals, you are not responding in good faith and are only trying to derail.
