But mainly, these sorts of things should be decided locally by voters and taxpayers. Local residents are paying for a police force through taxes. Denying them that protection because local politicians are caving to some mob mentality is theft of those tax monies.

The type of security we're talking about there would most likely be former police officers, or off-duty police officers on a "second job".The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Policing needs reform. But the lawless and chaotic elements of the world will always need the push back of the enforcement of law and order.My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism. James 2:1
If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26
This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; James 1:19

Crime is higher in high poverty areas for a reason.
Ignore that and the crime problem as well as the police abuse will continue.
It's interesting to me how it seems all you conservatives are pro-Authoritarian Executive with an underlying police state.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

I've already considered that if I get a response from that poster, I will come out guilty somehow, Trump should be guilty for sure, and the Democrat Heart will be the most pristine thing ever, just not in practice in their cities.Last edited by Maranatha; 06-29-2020, 10:22 AM.
