    1. Determined to get plastic surgery on the tax payer dime? Determined to completely destroy law and order whilst destroying the right to defend yourself. Determined to steal your money, livlihood, and all you hold dear?

    2. @the end is here let’s see if you are even half as lucid and eloquent when and if you reach 80 yrs. of age ,mike Languin

  1. I will believe it when I see it. Thank god for camera phones we need to hold people accountable.

    1. Yes. And it’s showing a reality many of us knew of but didn’t quite see completely. Hands up phones up!!

    2. @SkyGemini A second offense should be a capital offense. They should keep that video and audio feed going like their life depends on it.

      They need redundant systems, like a backup, and if #2 goes down they need to let off a massive siren, shoot flairs in the air, and sit down with their hands laced behind their heads until the live feed goes back up.

      Then, their lives might tru;ly depend on it

    3. yes like the Democrats, Adam Schiff, Jerry nadler, Nancy pelosi. and the rest of the deep State treasonous rat.

    4. don’t blame you for your doubts . but it is important to have hope and faith , Michael .

  2. Are we really talking about chokeholds? They’re still shooting us in the back as we run “away” from them. Smdh

    1. I’m 58, and I can tell you that when I was growing up, “running from the police”, UNLESS you were in the commission of a felony, was NEVER grounds to draw a service weapon and fire upon a citizen. Ever!

    2. Then vote! You’re never going to get change with this president and senate. No, the problem won’t be solved immediately, but we can start to get change

    3. “They’re still shooting us in the back as we run “away” from them.”
      Running away with that 60″ TV ya just looted from a store.

    4. Stop saying that… Your head(s) ain’t damned. Theirs is… in some cases. You gotta come up with something Dr. King would approve of. Just sayin’

    5. If you owned a police training n manual you’d understand that it’s a crime to shoot a fleeing suspect. It was outlawed about 40 years ago. For the person who proposed it was a good idea.

    1. I think it’s too late. The brain cancer of racism in 40% (just guessing now) of the population has spread too far. In Januari 2021 you will have a prolonged president Trump and you will have a civil war coming at ya. Plus a virus that loves packed masses and won’t go away.
      What you at least need is an assassin. And not only for that one rabid berserker, he cloned himself on a grand scale. You have now in fact uncountable people who want to give their lives for him. The Fuhrer Syndrome.
      He may loath his “conversion” to Jesus, but it was a very smart move….and so is his strategy of releasing a herd of velociraptors on people “who are not nice to Me”. His worshippers love that.

  3. What happened to the days when a picture was worth 1,000 words? How many times has Trump said something that was opposite of what is black and white and his cult keeps drinking his kool-aid?

    1. Trump actually admitted he said that disinfectant thing and that he was being sarcastic his cultists still insist he never said it. So they will even lie about what trump said live and in person. Smh

  4. Thank you for the encouraging words, I wish more leaders and our former presidents were stepping up with encouragement in the absence of our current president

    1. @Nicole L What would Trump gain by paying shills to go out and commit violence? More importantly.. how do you think he could pull it off without it getting traced back to him? Trump would need to do something really smart like use crypto on the darknet. Do you think he even has the capacity to think of such a thing?

    2. @LENNY FERRARA The root of the problem? So the ones calling liberals out for looting and beating shop owners are the root of the problem?

    3. I really like the idea of detaching his last name, and particularly like “fox” as a replacement. Euchre is starting to bother me. I don’t want the word to haunt us forever 🙁

  5. None of this would happen if the senate remove him from office, just vote out your republican senators.

    1. @Lead Gen Magic prepare to get stuck then, because that is exactly what is going to happen, unfortunately

    2. About Biden: “For Joe Biden, police are shaking their heads because he used to be a stand-up guy who backed law enforcement,” Johnson said. “But it seems in his old age, for whatever reason, he’s writing a sad final chapter when it comes to supporting law enforcement.”

    3. Also get rid of the democrats in the House and Senate that did not vote to impeach or remove. Tulsi Gabbard is one, if you know the orhers let it be known. Ditch the entire Republican Senate

  6. “Faith give hope to the goodness, love and generosity of the people” Well said Nancy! If such wisdom could seep in our States Capital and instill life into the dead swamp, it would spread and ignite the world with a rainbow of colors as vivid as humanity can shine.

    1. Amen Nancy P. Say it.. it’s about the heart of our nation now. That’s America’s hearts, out in Those Street’s SAYING Somethin!
      About Institutionalized injustice to it’s PEOPLE institutional, Systemic injustices.
      Too you hoood rats and mice amongst men. Bewear that your sin will find you out.

      And I understand that America it seems owe you something too, so now your living with the LOOTERS CREED now? “Giving the white man a penny for his Pain”
      That’s an injustice too my people.
      BUT! MEN.. do not despise a theif, if he steals to satisfy his soul when he is Hungry” Prov 6:30
      Dumptrump!2020!!!

  7. There needs to be agency in every county that’s sole purpose is to investigate the alleged crimes cause by law enforcement in that county. Why can’t they address this instead of just changing how they throw people to the ground? Idiots. Cowards. Corrupt politicians.

  8. We need some new Constitutional Amendments that prevents someone like Trump EVER becoming POTUS again. Maybe, like, a quiz about the Constitution or something.

    1. There needs to be a prerequisite requirement for any individual who wishes to run for an elected position. Dump has zero government, zero military, zero international affairs experience…..which he has been flying blind and shooting from the hip for 3.5 years now. He’s in way over his head….I wouldn’t even doubt if he thinks himself that he’s in over his head and wants out. Unfortunately for him the alternative is going to be jail….so, he’s just trying to ride out his freedom while he can because he’s in for a rude awakening once he steps out of the WH as a citizen again.

    2. I’m sure it’s been brought to the floor and past in the House. It’s Moscow Mitch who won’t let bills get to the floor of the Senate. Just like he did in the IMPEACHMENT trial. So, trump went to trial, they Moscow Mitch allowed no witnesses, no documents!!! We will REMEMBER in NOVEMBER if trump can hide that long!!!

    1. She’s been in government for 37 years, Biden for 40 years and NEVER did anything since Rodney King in 1991. These are disgusting lying politicians!! Look at the big picture folks and not the stupid daily rhetoric. Let an outsider clean up the waste, fraud and abuse!!

    1. Moscow Mitch is too busy killing election security bills and appointing judges that haven’t graduated high school yet.

    2. @Cactus Moscow Mitch and Putins pee buddy dumb donald have prefected the art of election fraud…dumb donnie is right, it is rigged, that’s why he “won”

    1. @John Lennon Jr Yeah well you’re obviously no up with the play. The craven McConnell blocked a resolution condemning Trump.

    2. She can’t make changes tomorrow. It would need Senate and Presidential approval. She can propose changes, but not single handedly make them. That’s not how government works.

    1. I am sure she enjoyed her ‘beautiful sight’ over the TV of the protests that turned violent n angry all over US . My advice to get naive statement( a beautiful sight to behold) she made about the protest in HK sometime back that “those who lived in the glass house should not throw stone”.
      Now the phase ‘ those who laugh last laugh the best’ is really very real n China is laughing out n best. Shame on her!! Another one of those western hypocritical politician who are alway trying to stir trouble in others people county by using n promoting their democracy ideology

    2. @jeanqbxx Thug ?? Do you have a reason for commenting like you did here? Seems very racist to me. If so, you are in the wrong, hugely.!

    3. @Gina R you don’t know a thug is?? haha, look it up. Everything that doesn’t align with your views of course is going to be racist.
