You can't make this stuff up. One of the big new slogans coming from (certain segments of) the left is "Silence is consent". Just let that marinate for a second.

Did they already forget about the Me Too movement?

In other 'ridiculous shit' news: Minneapolis City Council is pledging to 'disband' the police department? That seems like a truly terrible idea. I'm pretty far from a defender of the Police in most cases, but having no Police seems worse than having a corrupt Department. Maybe just fix the culture?

Also - This is a great example of why I don't like Unions. Good luck efficiently dealing with problem Police officers with a strong Police Union...

A new week, a new thing for the left to be offended about.

80% say the Country is out of control. So the Trump righties have that going for them into the election.

And Democrats seem intent on squandering the opportunity to push all blame for that state of affairs on Trump. They seem intent to show everyone that THEY'RE going to make sure the country stays out of control.

Is Minneapolis planning on NO police department...or do they plan to re-organize?

I am part of that 80% that believes the country is out of control. I also don't blame Trump, and I don't particularly like Trump.
