I’ve actually considered Texas. Bigger bass ! And far fewer leftist shit stains. For now at least.
God that was tragic… We agree on most everything it seems except for the intentional divisiveness.
That female officer is a dunce
People do have legitimate gripes regarding policing. Unfortunately they’re overshadowed by the unstable whack jobs that include Biden, Talib, AOC types
I bet every competent officer in that department doesn’t know that(and didn’t way before that incident)…![]()
Nearly everything about the video indicates that she isn’t fit to be a cop.
At the same time, I don’t think she is guilty of 2nd degree manslaughter in MN (MN requires an aspect of recklessness).
I agree on intentional divisiveness. I just don’t agree that it is only the left doing it.
Fortunately the vast majority of police will never have to use deadly force because most aren’t ready for it or trained up to a reasonable standard. Again… Lack of proper / enough training which costs money. The left can’t seem to grasp this. Then again they contribute so little to society anyway.
I’ll concede a bit. It’s like 99%![]()
I think you missed my sarcasm. I would bet real money that the woman has been a joke in the department for years.
Well, I disagree with your numbers. I think both are plenty guilty, but I don’t think we (and I mean anyone by we) have a way to accurately quantify how much a party polarizes the populace. So it is probably an agree to disagree thing.
Below (from Pew) isn’t a trying to quantify how much the actual parties are polarizing the populace, but it does show the populace has become more polarized on both sides.

Another is that Porter was arresting someone.
Article on those graphs:
Can you link to the defund policy (or a news story about it) being put in place?
One party is pushing the race narrative. Openly and inarguably encouraging violence and confrontation. Separating people by so many irrelevant metrics. Pushing laughably moronic narratives that crumble under the slightest scrutiny. The pendulum swings and it is firmly to the far left as we speak.
Im principled. I don’t like it when anyone in any position of influence does this shit, but in my unbiased and objective estimation it is nearly completely coming from the left and its legion of SJW drones, woefully delusional celebrities and “influencers,” media vermin, this trash heap of an administration; who are responsible for the incarceration of a ton of black people, btw…
Just my opinion though. I truly hope this ship rights itself. Nobody will suffer more than black Americans who in my belief have a special place in this country given our collective history.
I picked it up. Was also stating a common opinion from our outlook. She might be but we actually have some really solid females on our dept. It’s not easy to train people to actually perform optimally in these kinds of scenarios. Our “training” post academy only happens a couple times a year. It HAS to be conducted far more often. Like doing thousands of arm bars or double legs.
Sadly you will see a marked decrease in self initiated policing which will have the most negative impact on black communities. Leftists are vermin and have caused more irreparable harm than any and all police misconduct or white supremacy boogeymen ever will.
Might help if using any type of force didn’t result in extra reports/forms having to be completed(in what amounts to begging to be deemed justified, no matter how objectively reasonable). That prospect makes putting off the use force a lot more attractive option…sometimes, that extra time lets things calm down…sometimes, it results in more force eventually being required.
But, as a now-retired Sergeant I know once told a female…”I don’t care what they told you in the academy; you can’t physically handle a man.”
So are you a leftist trying to divide, or are you the 1% of the right intent on divisiveness?
One difference I see is that the left, or at least the vocal woke part of the left, hates this country.
How many male cops do you think can handle a man?
I don’t condone this. One party is also pushing a “theory” that the election was fraudulent / stolen (theory in quotes as the word theory is awfully generous here). That party is using this “theory” to pass election security laws (which we have no evidence of needing, so they are either wasting their time, or there is another motive). That party also had a mob of people show up to the capital in attempt to somehow change the election results.
My point is both are saying things to polarize the country. They both have different flavors, sure. The undermining of democracy makes me mad, just as using race narratives makes me mad.
