Keep all police out of those neighborhoods! The people in those areas keep making it so very clear they do NOT want police there so get them all out! Every time the police do their job in those areas the people riot so its silly! Get all cops out of those areas and the people lving there will be happy and the people in all other areas will be happy because there will be no excuse for anymore rioting PLUS it means more cops for the parts of town that actually DO want police!
To quote Joe Biden, "c'mon man!"
First, the majority of the looting in Chgo this last time took place in the high end retail areas & the "good" neighborhoods. It was wide spread, from the south side to the north side, but the video you see is downtown Chgo where the major destruction was. There were threats today that would spread to the south suburbs - but God and a killer storm put the kibatz on that.
The catalyst was an incident that happened in Englewood.
With that being said, the majority of the people in Englewood are good people who WANT police presence. They don't want the police defunded - they want MORE police presence.
The rioters & looters are a small but vocal (and criminal) member of the Chgo community.
It's quite simple and it starts at the local level. Stop voting for the same type of people who created the situation in your city and/or state. Try something different at the local level. Take some personal responsibility for your own life. Make better decisions. Focus your energy on things which will directly make your own life better.
The problem with a lot of people is they look for a top down solution, rather than looking inside themselves first. Instead of making different decisions in their own life, they keep making the same poor decisions that landed them in the situation they are now stuck in and then want to blame someone else.

Cool beans. Tell them to look inside themselves, and wait for the problem to sort itself out

This is very sound advice. The wisdom of the ages agrees. Change comes from within.
I asked you to back up the dishonest claims you have made about me and my views.
Can you do that?
You seem keen on talking about me, so here is your chance. The floor is yours.
Get honest, and stay that way. That is my advice to you.
You've called rioters protesters, you've insisted that it was calm in Portland until the feds arrived, every time someone talks about destruction in one of the cities you try and dismiss it - no reasonable Democrat I know does these things. They're upset by what's going on. Only far left liberals do what you do. If you're not a far left liberal, stop acting like one.
