Angry and I don’t live together, but when Jim generalized yet again and in his usual narrow and Fox infused point of view, I just have to poke fun at him.

Posting stats is one thing, generalize that is directly related the the left is what is typically Jim. So Jim were you in touch with all those local municipalities to investigate the cause of those deaths? Could be that Trump dividing this country the way he did had an impact, oh wait didn’t we have a pandemic, oh crap hard times, oh no Jim more research is needed go reach out to Fox for a link for the answers.

Bob, you did what you guys always do, pretended I said something I never came close to saying. That's what one does when (1) you know I have a point, but (2) you're too small to admit it.

A few years ago, some sharp operative at the DNC crunched the numbers and figured out that if the left never stopped painting cops as racist assassins, they'd win more elections. Who care if it means more dead cops.

The left is demonizing cops. And way more cops are being killed now (which you denied). I can't prove a connection. But I know there's a connection.

The left believes the answer to violent crime, is smaller police presence. How many 1960s bad acid trips does it take, to believe something that stupid Bob?

First you repeat something that at best you heard or imagined about a democratic plan to make cops victims.
Because just like pointing out embedded racism in society makes you claim to be victimized, so does identifying an issue with police brutality puts police in the spotlight.

Police brutality exists and given the current climate that exists in policing with qualified immunity and strong unions it’s hard to change.

The current militarization and methods of policing need to change.
Every year expenditures go up and results go down.

But saying that pursuing change is claiming police are racist assassins is the way to ensure that rational change cannot happen.
