    They bombed the spaghetti factory? What about the Spumoni!?

    I mean I was pretty angry when the beaverton one stopped giving garlic butter with the bread but I wasn’t that angry to bomb them.

    im sorry but i have to say this was easy to see coming.
    Im not sure how anyone thought this wouldn't happen after defunding the police and making all hem out as evil.
    Now there is no one left to protect our families and homes.
    I hate to say it but this is only the beginning.
    History has proven selfish rule wins out over kind morality.

    i see it on the roads. People speeding and taking selfish chances like never before because they know there isn't law enforcement around to keep people in check.

    this is what happens when a system is not changed from within but simply torn down.


    And because of the universal condemnation of law enforcement, al the good ones are retiring and no good people will want to be in law enforcement in the future, so once people realize the need for rule of law again. Thier only choices will be bigoted war mongers who want the position.
    So the very thing being protested against is going to gain strength in opposition to thier movement. Simply because the good people want no part of it.

    Stable Change happens from within. Chaos and instability happens when dealt with externally or extremely.
    And we are seeing the results. And will continue to do so...

    talk about shooting oneself in the foot ...

    I get to laugh with the nurses and technicians in my dialysis unit. Incidentally, they all hate Trump and love to crack jokes about him.
    Most of the patients are dirt poor and surprisingly most of those love Trump. Several have legs and feet that have been amputated because they didn't do anything about their diabetes when they had the chance. Check your blood sugar levels periodically and watch your carbohydrates. Once you are on dialysis your life will change dramatically.

    I'm sorry but in my neck of the woods, the police have not been defunded nor in Nashville..there were a lot of petty crooks let out of jail though for covid and 5 cop cars showed up at my neighbors burglary and there are more homeless. The bomb in Nashville was set off next to a building owned by the company that makes voting systems....I'd say there is another element in this than defund the cops...

    well of course. Point being is extremist and selfish greedy people know now is the time. Why? Because law enforcement is crumbling.

    When people feel like they can get away with something, they generally do it. Regardless of it being moral or not.

    And so the wave of violence and lawlessness is only beginning in my opinion.

    but hey we can all still call 911 on our uber driver even while supporting such drastic measures calling for no police. ;)

    those that think if the cops go away it will be peace and sunshine and roses are not living in reality.

    not making this statement directed at you btw. Just in general. And i didnt mean to use the incident at your place as a reference other than it was violent and you stated being sick of hearing about it.
    Im just saying its only the beginning of hearing/seeing such things in my opinion. Small and large scale.

    Becoming the wild west again! I saw where parcel trucks have been held up by gun point just like the old stage coach/train day hold ups.

    From looking at the footage on TV, I can see what attracted ABM to Nashville. It's got both Hooter's and Dick's.

    The police were there. They evacuated the area and saved many lives. They did their job.

    Those are the bad cops. If there were any good cops left they would have defused the bomb and given everyone muffins.

    and? If you folllowed the convo, my comments you are quoting had little to do with the op incident and more of a general statement.

    yep. All cops are bad and should go away.
    Period.
    All of them. Tear it all down. They are all racist.

    including the Cops who risked their lives to get people out of the area of the op incident.

    but all cops are bad, evil, corrupt, racist aNd we don't need any of them. not even to cAll 911 on our uber drivers.
    or dismantle terrorist bombs. Or evacuate citizens to safety.

    damn racist cops......
