Hopefully you are correct.
I have very liberal friends. I am brave enough to tell them that I wont be voting for Biden. But I've made excuses rather than admitting I'm marking that box for Trump this year with more enthusiasm than anyone I've ever voted for since Al Gore (yeah, I know, I was young and stupid back then).
Last time my marker hovered hesitantly over the president selection. Last second I marked for Hillary.
Not even hesitating this time. Democrats must burn the way they have burned down the country and thrown it into a racially charged dystopia.
I don't think it's a plot to get votes. They aren't even campaigning to win votes right now. They know Trump will destroy Biden on any one on one debate. Harris is there in order to keep liberal black folk engaged so they don't sit home like they did in 2016. Biden didn't even want her on the ticket - he wanted Whitmer.
Even after telling the country months ago he would choose a black woman for VP? Another example of can’t depend on anything Biden says.
A lot of you guys need to lay off consuming stuff about BLM. There will be no mass defunding of the police. If there is some budget cuts, it'll be more related to the revenue troubles related to covid19 that's around the corner. Some municipalities may present it that way to win brownie points, but that'll be the real reason. I also see someplace using it to their advantage to curtail the leverage and strangle hold that some of the police and fire unions, have over their governments.
What I've seen over the years, is that every government employee and union outside of police and fire unions, have been considered undeserving leeches. If you question the police and fire union, that's 'very bad' and you hate them.
Don't worry though, after the elections BLM will disappear like they did after the 2016 elections.
The point is that the racist hate group is calling to defund the police, and the Dems are honoring them by painting streets and murals with their rallying slogan. Are you saying that Dems are just PRETENDING to support these violent racists because they think doing so will get them votes? That’s not saying much about what they think about their voters.
Can you imagine if your boss hung a banner over your office door saying "We don't want you, loser"? That's what the city has done to all police officers with their "Defund the Police" mural, as well as to all conservative white people with their "Black Lives Matter" slogan. I have no say in what the Washington city government does, but I can certainly keep myself and my money out of their city.
They are not for black lives... race is just a cover to hide their attacks on America and Trump.
I am pretty sure you understand this already and are just engaging in psycho warfare.
Not necessarily.
BLM and antifa don't discriminate (yes, I realize that's ironic) - they will go after whoever doesn't give them exactly what they want. They don't compromise - it's all or nothing.
And that's what they'll end up doing w/ Biden/Kamala. It's pretty much inevitable ... you can't put the toothpaste back in the tube this time.
Case in point: Lori Lightfoot in Chgo. She had bent over backwards for those protesting idiots. Peaceful people and families at the beach got taken to task, ripped in the media and physically fenced out. Protestors were commended and marching in crowds all over the city was AOK with her. She was bullied into removing the Columbus statue (actually 2 of them) after having the CPD defend the statue and be physically attacked by the mob for doing so.
Even after that, BLM was STILL protesting at her home because she wasn't defunding the police.
Dem power players have lost control of the people on the ground this time around.
“Defund the police” is not a slogan that is polling well for Biden. | DC Mayor Muriel Bowser today ordered construction crews to pave over the “defund the police” portion of Black Lives Matter Plaza, on 16th Street near the White House. | https://twitter.com/Doranimated/stat...74446695264256
I think it's more accurate to say it's not polling well for Democrats. I don't believe Biden was for defunding the police.
What does it say when you need a poll to figure out that people want the safety provided by the police department?
The mural itself was commissioned by the city government, and originally just read “black lives matter” in big yellow letters. The next day, however, activists added “defund the police” next to it.
Ironically, the same workers who performed the work were ordered by the mayor to refresh the paint on both the original and added slogans. It seems the mayor didn’t have a problem with it the first time around.
As long as she is not held accountable for what she says and does, she can do about whatever she wants.
Most people can't remember past a week or two about these types of things.
