Maybe ask james field if he'd preferred the bump in his premiums vs what actually happened to him.
Didn't some professor in Charlottesville admit to hitting his car and provoking him to drive into the crowd?

And yes, I know Heather Heyer was a fatfuck smoker who croaked from a heart attack and wasn't anywhere near being hit.
 
Look, I get the sentiment, however when you put an ounce of thought into this, this is such a midwit take. Law enforcement can't be a charity case. Sure it can exploitative, but the argument police departments shouldn't be financially solvent is lunacy. Do you really want your taxes constantly increasing every time they need an expansion or investment? All those fines don't just vanish, they go towards keeping these places running. You need government institutions to be solvent to be at least somewhat self-sustaining.
Why do they need quotas when joggers exist
 
yeah let's force a real, actual, constitution crisis because people arent getting shot. as the 2028 democrat hopeful Newsom can't do shit. he can't cut a deal getting trump and ice to fuck off by giving up criminal illegals (convicted criminals here illegally) because it would tarnish the dem platform. He also can't respond to the national guard and marine deployment by calling up his remaining 20k guards because he doesnt have the political pull.
You are missing the point completely, I'm not asking for Total Beaner Death via the guards or whatever. My point is that the Left didn't get to enact reform and brute force borderline authoritarian policy changes by being perfectly content with every step taken during the Long March through the Institutions. They rallied to get what they want and then demanded more even after they won, and when they don't get more they moralize/move money/shift the Overton window far enough to create the conditions necessary to keep winning. That's what "forcing behaviors" means - the Left who wanted to win made it untenable for the center-Left/Classical Libs to refuse to conform to their agenda.

MAGA has a terrible habit of getting really hyped when Trump does basically fucking anything even as he surrounds himself with neocons and merchants or drags his feet or fails fulfill promises or... you get the idea. Satisfaction engenders contentment and there really is no need to be content right now, people should be demanding more from Trump regarding immigration as a whole even if in this particular circumstance it isn't the best idea to just mow down brown rioters for doing brown rioter shit. (Still a good idea, tho.)
 
The LAPD can be overrun, torn to shreds by a mob, and the Chief and Mayor will still back the niggers and spics.
nothing anyone didnt know since 2020. 1000's of chicago cops called it quits in 2023. yeah it's a shame but anyone who's still on the force knows what's coming down the line. not that it even matters this ot is gonna be in millions.

Boston is starting to rally.
I wonder what they will throw in the harbor!
Didn't some professor in Charlottesville admit to hitting his car and provoking him to drive into the crowd?
Yes. A professor from out of state bragged about bringing his gun(across state lines) and threatening him with the weapon as he drove by. I forget the school but I am pretty sure he faced low to no consequences. I am pretty sure the confession has never been allowed to be considered.
 
why does this thread have nearly 5k pages in 4 odd months? Why choose to climb the highest mountain? WHY DOES RICE PLAY TEXAS?

WE CHOOSE TO SHITPOST, We choose to shitpost in this decade and the other things, not beacuse it easy but because they are hard Because that goal will serve to goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills because this challenge is one we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone and one we intend to win, and the others too.

Its like what General Picket said in response to the often asked question about why exactly his charge so disastrously failed in the Civil War, his response was this many years after the civil war,

"I think the Yankees hand something to do with it"
To paraphrase:

“Our Great War is an autist war.
Our Great Depression is the world outside.”
 
This is not meant to be provocative in any way, since folks here seem to have a working knowledge of this shit:

How many instances have there been since, say, Trayvon, that during any leftist protest on American soil, anyone actively participating in said protest, has at any point been shot by law enforcement or military personnel?
Almost daily during protests. Sadly with only non-lethal rounds. There hasn't been any lethal rounds being used for a long while, at least in these last two decades.
