The city will fund the tax enforcement thugs,

This. The government always has thugs to collect money, and put dissidents in jail. It is the real criminals who will walk free. Clinton, Biden, Fauci... they are big time criminals and the fact they are not held accountable for their crimes is evidence that the rule of law is a farce. Even Bill Gates has been accused of sterilization of poor children in third world nations without parental consent under the guise of vaccine efforts. Wanna bet when this is all said and done the billion vaccines the G7 is donating to third world countries end up sterilizing (or worse) a good number of the recipients?

Baltimore City actually slightly increased police funding, and is experiencing a crime wave just the same:

Baltimore businesses threatening to withhold tax payments amid violence, ‘lawlessness’

It's not just defunding police, it's prosecutors declining to prosecute.

Maybe prosecutors should not have the right to nullify any laws they choose by declining to prosecute whatever they feel like.

And judges should be told by legislature what legal philosophy to use. There's no reason Congress can't legislate originalism.

Portland Police union head Daryl Turner is interviewed following the resignation of Portland’s entire riot-response trained police team.

Yes, but each business they shut down deprives themselves of revenue and makes them weaker.

Notice the officials were not worried about depriving themselves of revenue during the plandemic forced shutdowns. Also, such officials are short sighted. True, shutting down a business and seizing its assets will destroy future tax revenue from that business, but the officials will gladly make that trade to get their money for today and punish someone for defying them.

That's illegal in Chicago.

Pretty much all the guns that blacks are murdering each other with in Chicago are illegally owned anyway.

Medical triage in Chicago is not answering emergency calls for gunshots in the known areas for two hours. If they survive the bleed out, they will take them to the emergency room.

I saw a black lady cuss out a man at the emergency room for trying to be a hero and 'saving' a gunshot whomper too early. Maybe they will extend the bleed out time to three hours.

As per today's headlines, some blm activists met Biden. Now he acts like Trump and upset them!

I wonder if BLM will ever figure out they were just puppets.

Somehow they get funding and media coverage only before presidential elections, and not after...

No

They don't care about that. Stifling dissent is more important to politicians.

They will join Antifa, the homeless, and the unemployables in "Holiday" camps.

Useful idiots never survive the revolution.

That sounds like Chicago during prohibition gangster times. Capone's boys with a Tommy gun.

It appears that the fake-news and their handlers (Democrats) are blaming Trump and the Republicans. Unfortunately, there are plenty of people who believe this story.

Video of the mass shooting tonight at 66th/Halsted. Seven shot, including a one-month-old girl, by gunmen who emerged from a black Jeep Cherokee with rifles. #Chicago

Vote Democrat, vote for massive crime wave.

HunterTits says

Nope. Governmental policy setting falls under sovereign immunity. Courts have long held that the avenue to address that is at the voting booth.

I think FL governator/legislature passed a law that cities who allow burn loot and murder activities are liable for damages to businesses.

A man whose ingenious pop-up swimming pool kept the homeless cool during the recent heat wave was fatally stabbed in the same spot just one day later, according to Portland police.

Officers identified Tyson L. Morlock as the man who was found stabbed in the inner eastside Hosford-Abernethy neighborhood at Division Street and Southeast Martin Luther King Junior Boulevard around 3:37 a.m. on Thursday, July 1.

Despite life-saving efforts from paramedics, he died shortly thereafter in a nearby hospital, according to authorities.

Homicide detectives say the person who stabbed Morlock remained at the scene and was interviewed, but "has not been charged at this time and we are not releasing his name."

Huh? Self defense?

Homicide detectives say the person who stabbed Morlock...

... Morlock hooked up the pool to a fire hydrant at the Division Street underpass of Highway 99E, which is also known as Martin Luther King Boulevard.

"Morlock said he 'tried to steal' a slurpee from 7-11 this weekend...

The guy was a model citizen: stealing water, stealing slurpees....

https://spectatorworld.com/topic/hell-going-dc-shootings-crime/

The surge in crime is finally starting to affect Washington’s cozy and wealthy elite...

The left will blame this rise in crime on the alleged proliferation of firearms — Jen Psaki did just that today. They will not tell you that DC already has some of the strictest gun laws in the country, or that the recent shootings that wounded innocent bystanders appeared to be gang-related. Their response to this rise in crime will be to crack down on legal gun owners and manufacturers. President Joe Biden recently suggested allowing people to sue gun-makers for liability when someone uses one of their firearms to commit a crime. This approach will do little to stop the crime surge that is occurring in DC and in other major cities across the country.

I strongly believe people need to feel pain for stupid decisions. These people voted to defund and for diversity, they should live those consequences.

Democratic policy at work.

https://notthebee.com/article/democrat-cities-nationwide-spent-millions-on-private-security-for-their-democrat-mayors

Democrat politicians in 20 U.S. cities, many of whom have cut police funding, have reportedly spent MILLIONS of taxpayer dollars on their private security (i.e., police protection).

I don't think you'll be surprised by which cities and their clown mayors made the list.

Chicago, Illinois | Mayor Lori Lightfoot
Cut 400 police officers in 2020
Spent $6.2 million on police protection from 2019 to 2020
New York City | Mayor Bill de Blasio
The city council approved reducing the police budget from $6 billion to $1 billion in 2020
Spent $358,000 on police protection for his presidential bid from 2019 to 2020
San Francisco, California | Mayor London Breed
Said the city would divert $120 million from law enforcement in 2020
Spent $7.8 million on police protection from 2018 to 2020
Baltimore, Maryland | Mayor Brendon Scott
Police budget cut by $22 million in 2020
Spent $3.6 million on police protection for Scott, State Attorney Marilyn Mosby, and Police Commissioner Michael Harrison in 2020
San Diego, California | Todd Gloria
Reportedly pushed for $4.3 million cut from police overtime budget
Spent $2.6 million on police protection in 2020
These city politicians don't want to abolish/defund/downsize the police's service for themselves.

That's the hypocrisy.

Not only do they want to defund the police, they want to take away your ability to protect yourself from crime, as well.

Of course, so that you will need them to protect you.

More power for them, less power for you.
