    More of the same old failed solutions/promises/gestures.
    Is that after the BLM demanded that LA defund the Police?

    The “communities of color” would be the ones who suffer if the police are defunded or eliminated.

    Defund the police? Are these people retarded?
    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

    They know exactly what they are doing. In Portland OR, if you set a fire to a building, or even run over a cop, you will be out in one day. In NY, no bail for most of the rioters. They are arrested and let back on the streets the same day. One guy robbed a bank 4 times and after each arrest, the next day out. Pedophiles get probation. They love lawlessness.

    Unfortunately, its not really up to the rest of us. We, the people, don't get to choose who gets admitted as a state.

    Virtually no one goes to prison for simple possession of anything. The vast majority of drug offenders are charged with trafficking. We had a large contingent on this forum that insisted that marijuana laws drive "mass incarceration" which is another goofy buzz word but I digress.

None of this could have happened if DC were a state, as it should be.
