It looks like the suburbs.

Yes cause in the suburbs teens often get a pass for a drive by shooting or robbing a store.

The "Brillance" of AOC

I'm shocked AOC thinks that the 'burbs' funding for law enforcement is exceeded by anything other than the school district

It looks like paradise!

A raping, murdering, child molesting paradise.

I hope to never see "brilliance" and "AOC" in the same sentence again

Yep. And she thinks that white suburbs fund "health" and "housing" more than they fund police.

Suburbs spend little on "health" and nothing on "housing." Both health and housing are generally state responsibilities, with most of the actual funding coming from the feds. Big Democrat-run cities often add additional misguided programs on top of the state programs. The result is a labyrinth of programs whose primary benefits are reaped by large real estate developers and hospital systems.

This is the problem with electing people who can't even read an income statement.

I'm not some big fan of police, but definitely respect the job they do.

I do not think George Floyd was some stand up guy based off initial autopsy results and don't think he should be revered as some martyr. Now, there was zero reason for his life to be taken and that is the true question at hand. Why? Was it really race or was it that Minnesota still allowed the kneeing? Maybe a mixture of both.

While to an extent, I always try to understand where the so called other side is coming from, it makes zero sense that an action by 1-4 police officers that has been rightfully condemned by nearly everyone in this country has turned into defunding police departments all across the country.

The robberies/shootings are the least of my worry, the true monsters (No details needed) will come out in storms from all races. This to me is a very scary thought.

It was never really about George Floyd for the radicals behind the rioting. It was an opportunity. Sure many normal people wanted to protest Floyd's death at the hands of the police. Many did it peacefully. But to the instigators and agitators, this was their opportunity to yet again infiltrate the protests and cause trouble. They hide, vandalize, get others to follow and then these instigators slink away.

In the same way, BLM waits for opportunities to advance their agenda. These protests are a perfect time to issue demands for their favorite pet projects, like defund the police - they tie it to police brutality. Like Antifa, BLM is not a centralized organization.

If you do even cursory research into BLM, it is not what most people believe it is. Through clever marketing, they chose a name with which people could hardly disagree without seeming to be racists. BLM was started by three Marxists after the Trayvon Martin death. Most people in BLM don't know this and wouldn't believe you even if you have proof. They are manipulated, just as the Marxists behind the organization use race as an issue to stir people up and divide them and then issue demands as communists have done for generations. All have to do with getting Trump removed as their immediate goal, and the longer term goal is to bring down the U.S. which is the largest impediment to one world (communist) government.

As Dan Bongino said today, EVERYBODY will need to choose a side soon. The Marxists' cancel culture will come for everybody, even you. They will brand you a racist, get you fired from your job, ostracized from/by family and friends, etc.
