Sure, why not? I'm not making decisions about that stuff anyways. They took a run at the throne on television, and they fell flat on their faces. Power isn't historically kind to those who make that attempt and fail.

It isn't me you'd need to convince, though, but judges and juries.

Just follow them with a drone and arrest them without conflict when they are taking a shit at home.

The problem is the police department uses 1800s style police practices.

We live in fuckin 2022.

Some redneck that has never even seen an iphone or a television set with his own eyes will try to tell me there is no such thing as a net gun that can stop a criminal.

HOWEVER, cops are far more likely to shoot someone here in America than, say, Britain or Australia because cops have a valid reason to be far more paranoid than cops in other countries

If there is a person who wants to do harm to the cops, and that person lives in America, there is a very good chance they could have a gun. That is notably different than places like Britain

So yes our love of guns and gun culture DIRECTLY negatively influences how cops treat citizens here

Guys did you watch the video that came out yesterday of the guy running

and the cop shot him in the back

then while he was on the ground the cop shot him 3 more times in the back point blank range?

All cops are bad.

I also check the news for the weather most mornings.

You guys seem to be getting desperate for something to criticize me with, frankly. I don't have very strong feelings on this one.

They tried, they failed. They'll probably try again, especially if the midterms go badly. You'll get another run at it.
