Yes let's all project weakness and helplessness like democrats, so we can enjoy being terrorized and brutalized by the weakest members of society... Children.
I guess you democrats didn't polish shoes hard enough for your new masters, so you get the boot. Maybe you could find an even more feeble leader than Biden so you can project weakness even harder?

I don't know what your experience is with out of control 11-14 year old boys with knives, andy, but in my experience they are absolutely NOT the weakest among us.
They're strong, quick, and stupidly fearless when they're in groups.

You're right. We should all carry a whistle and blow on it to summon the counselors with clip boards if our life is ever in danger. Good thing we have democrats to solve these challenges

This conversation isn't about whistles and clip boards.
This is about whether young teen boys who are thugs and traveling in a gang, bent on harming people, are dangerous or not.
I can't think of a more dangerous group of people, actually, than violent criminal early teen boys in a gang out on a crime spree. Rage and hormone driven, and too immature to understand the weight of what they're doing.
You go out there and mix it up with them if you want, no thanks for me.

That's not what this thread is about. You just made all that up in order to hijack this thread. Children are not more dangerous than adults. If you want to make such an absurd statement and hijack this thread, at least post some facts to support your assertion. We are talking about children as young as 11 years old, not 18 year olds with a lengthy rap sheet. Where the hell are the parents and what is their major malfunction???
The fact is, democrats are getting their asses kicked by children in their own cities, and they seem helpless to stop it. Maybe there's some republicans there too, but I wouldn't recommend it... Those cities are starting to look like war zones.

They sense weakness, and know Dems will still defend and enable them like they do with criminals. Such a shame when folks reap what they sow, lol.

I saw something about this a week or so ago. Assuming the facts are as presented (and I have no reason to doubt them), I would agree that this is a legitimate safety problem, and the Mayor seems to be less than fully engaged in trying to address the problem. I’m an old Republican turned Democrat, and the idea that you are placing the blame for this issue exclusively on Democrats is pretty silly. There are plenty of Democrats who are not interested in defunding the police, and unlike the DA in San Francisco feel like petty thieves shouldn’t just have their crimes ignored, etc. There are absolutely extremists in the Democratic Party who seem to believe people shouldn’t be held accountable for any of their actions….whether it has to do with criminal activity, paying back any of their student loans, etc. I don’t think that is where most Democrats stand.
On the other hand, there are Republicans who are extremists….those who think the Covid vaccine is actually harmful (e.g. Senator Ron Johnson’s recent statement saying that the Covid vaccine may in fact cause AIDS), those who think Trump won the last Presidential election, those who think Putin is justified in his invasion of Ukraine, etc. I think here on the City-Data forums those are pretty commonly held beliefs, but I don’t think those views are representative of most Republicans.
Believe it or not, there are some issues that you are concerned about (crime for example) where a lot of Democrats would share common ground with you.

The fact that you get satisfaction when people are harmed is troubling. It is perfectly reasonable to disagree with someone, but when you enjoy that they are physically hurt because you feel their position, rightly or wrongly, created a problem is just plain cruel.

I simply have no empathy for folks that make their own beds and then reap what they sow. Defending and enabling criminals and voting for those that do the same because they’re not smart enough to see 5 minutes in front of themselves that there’s going to be huge consequences from it reeks of stupidity. Quit enabling it to happen and there won’t be such problems.
