In what just might be the most misguided attempt at 'utopian' living ever conceived, progressive Democrats continue to demand the defunding and disbanding of police forces in cities around the country. Yet, like a doctor that has made the wrong diagnosis on a patient, such a radical idea will not bring peace and security to America's ailing neighborhoods. In fact, it will make them virtually unlivable.
The United States desperately needs a national debate on the root causes of police violence, which the political left has
prematurely and wrongly attributed to "systemic racism."
Missing from the bigger picture are questions pertaining to economic hardship, broken homes, drug abuse and street gangs - and perhaps most importantly of all, poorly trained police - as just a few of the contributing factors that have placed law enforcement between a rock and a hard place.For every Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis police officer charged in the murder of George Floyd, there are dozens of cops like Nicholas Reardon, who was forced to make a split-second decision after a Black girl, Ma'Khia Bryant, 16, attempted to stab another teenager. Reardon, who shot and killed Bryant, has found himself something of a celebrity not for potentially saving the life of a young girl, but for being the fresh face of "white supremacy."
NBA star Lebron James led the charge against the cop when he unconscionably tweeted to his 46.5 followers a photograph of Nicholas Reardon with the caption, "YOU'RE NEXT, beside the emoji of an hourglass. Some people may consider that a threat.
Comment: As time goes by, Covid certificates look to become mandatory for many everyday activities. The University of Durham is just one of the institutions that accepted these pseudo-science- and fascistic measures. They are literally blackmailing people to become more obedient.
People are forced to accept vaccines that are more dangerous than the virus itself and to regularly take inconvenient testing so they could allegedly continue with their normal lives and put the end to the "pandemic."
Living with constant high-level stress from this "new normal" is destroying people's lives and health, speeding up the decline of society as a whole.
