This is going to sound outrageous, but, once-upon-a-time, in Merrie Olde England, there were no "cops," per se. There'd be maybe a sheriff, and that's it.

When a crime was committed, and help in capturing or subduing the suspected perpetrator was required, somebody, perhaps said sheriff, would raise a hue and cry. Citizens would then assist whomever raised it.

The crime rate, particularly the violent crime rate, was exceedingly low.

You see: When everybody is "the cops," "the cops" are, literally, everywhere.

This is not what these people want, though. What they want is a world without responsibility or consequences. They'd be no happier with the people providing for their own safety and security than they are with formal, organized law enforcement doing it.

And I might include they demand their "right" to live from other people's work, to eat from other people's gardens.

My God just look at this pathetic old man, holding on to his mask like a security blanket, trying his best to stay lucid enough to read a 30 second blurb off the teleprompter. Does this look like a well man? Eek

He said "Jill". Some people misheard him because he said it quickly and he could have enunciated the name better, but others are being plain dishonest. The truth is sufficient. The man is in the early stages of dementia and is unfit for the office of the Presidency. Everyone knows it, and we don't need stuff like this to make it so.

Told ya so. Like this was going to be a shock to anyone with a functioning brain stem. Ooooh but don't forget, Joe's waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyy ahead. Roll Eyes

First night of 2020 DNC tanks in TV ratings compared to 2016 convention

Just a snippet....

Networks CBS, NBC, ABC, Fox News, MSNBC and CNN averaged 18.68 million viewers during the overlapping hour of coverage beginning at 10 p.m. Monday, according to The Hollywood Reporter, a 28-percent plunge from the opening night of the 2016 DNC.

That's right, a ~30% plunge in ratings as opposed to 2016. Did I happen to mention Joe was waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyy up on Trump and a shoe in to win this race. Big GrinBig GrinBig GrinBig GrinBig GrinBig GrinBig Grin
