Fun Times

  • The Minneapolis City Council on Sunday voted to disband its police department and invest in community-based public safety programs following calls from activists to ‘defund the police,’ in the wake of George Floyd’s death at the hands of a Minneapolis police officer.
Supposedly they have a veto-proof majority to do it, too.

So a city of half-a-million without a single cop - should be a great time.

The really crazy part is the article just a bit further down on the Post website, describing the vigilante organizations already popping up for "neighborhood defense."

The whole point of the democratic state's monopoly on violence is to end the factional feuding that causes so many deaths. Minneapolis is going to be a bloodbath.

Look for every productive working person to leave the city. I'm going to guess they will become the new Chicago for weekly homicide counts. The great social justice experience will amaze the world. And they will still blame the police for everything. The police account for .017% of the deaths of blacks, while 94% of the homicides of blacks are committed by other blacks. An uncomfortable truth that the democratic party doesn't want you to know. They stay in these elected positions by keeping blacks poor and dependent. Republicans have done more for the black population than any Democrat ever has. Google it.

I’ve been suggesting something similar for Chicago for quite some time now. Instead of disbanding all of us, I propose that the west side or Englewood be without police for a week. The results will ensure that no other city will propose such bullshit as disbanding or defunding. The carnage is overwhelming with a sizable police force, imagine none. Liberalism is surely an untreatable mental illness.

Look for specifics, you get this gibble-gabble, sung to the tune of "Imagine."

"...envisions replacing a traditional police department with a broader, more holistic public safety department geared toward violence prevention and community services. Social workers or medics could respond to situations once handled by police..."

"But Mayor Jacob Frey said he’d support “deep, structural reforms” to the department but not a complete abolishment of the agency, "

Don't worry about Mayor J. He is a weak suck who will burst into tears and crawl out of the room in tears the next time BLM starts up on him, which will be all day every day now.

I 'll say it. It feels like the lefty nazis were just waiting for an excuse to launch this attack on police- nation wide in scope. Call me paranoid, but these protests seemed to out of the box to be spontaneous. They seem to well scripted. Is this how a society collapses? This constant assault on cops, this never ending talking point of racism, systemic racism ( what the hell is that? If there was such a thing, why the hell would that society worship at the diversity alter? Affirmative action, race based history months, race based college admission, different standards on civil service entrance and promotional exams? Two term US President from a minority group, why would a racist society broadcast the poor man's memorial service that touched off nearly two weeks of "protests"?) and now defund the police.
Our political masters are all in the hate the cops movement, it drips off their skin like sweat, they stink of of pandering and political whoredom. 19 years since 9-11. The shelf life on police sacrifice seems to be up.Anyone willing to run into a terrorist scene now and risk your life ? Not me, no think I'll take a knee for the next towering inferno of a building. Many more New York cops were killed by the cancers they got from the twin towers, then the actual towers that fell on them in 2001. Funny the inept govenors of NY and NJ, killed thousands with their orders to admit covid-19 residents to nursing homes, where are their body cameras? How many did the makers of oxy kill? 4 ? Or was it 5 million? No calls to lock them up, deprive them of due process,no mob in the streets preverting the rule of law in their future legal battles. Nope no CEOs ever went to the slammer for sending millions of doses to miniscule populations in rural counties in places like Ohio, West Virginia, Illinois, and Kansas. Where are the calls to defund them?
Defund to cops. Pass all the reforms you want, but when you need cops, don't be surprised when they don't rush right over , in the mean time be content as the recently freed from jail felon is beating the shit out of you and taking all your stuff including your wife,that you helped fix the real enemy of society. The police.
DO NOTHING. EVER. NOTHING.

Look at the Cook County Sheriff Merit Board Section. Sheriff Dart last several cases of "excessive force" were overturned and officers were cleared from firing. The cases were all complete garbage. If not for this blog comments shaming Darts board for unwarranted firings, Vince Winters, Kim Widup and the rest of the crew would of continued to be rubber stamp. But they got caught and shamed and are finally doing the right thing. Dart is trying to fire anyone he so can to appease the mob or some have claimed to free money from his lawsuit infested budget. Finally some justice for the wrongly accused officers.

Watch the videos. Some where officers attacked while dart tried to have them fired. Look at the hundreds cases where the board fired officers in past and were overturned by the courts, with hundreds of thousands back pay. How much ot did Sheriff pay to cover manpower for all these false firings. Been following those cases for years and if you were a black or hispanic officer the firing rate on mostly fraudulant cases was over 95%.

Even if the Minneapolis Morons get rid of the Minneapolis Police Department, there is still a Hennepin County Sheriffs Department.

There is no way the majority of the people in Hennepin County will allow Minneapolis to be unpoliced. 1.2 million people live in Hennepin County, only about 400,000 of them live in Minneapolis. The sane majority should prevail.

SCC I have looked up every alternative to traditional policing in connection with defunding the Police. Not one explanation as to what will replace the police, only "We'll do it differently and better". Advocates of the defund movement see Minneapolis as the test case. I guarantee one of the "experts" of how to do this will be Alex S. Vitale, a sociology professor at Brooklyn College. He's not a fan of the police. He is truly vile. Listen to his BS online and look up his take on police in this country. Just so you know what we are up against. You can empathize with any cause, victim or offender. But that star means you are above taking a side while in uniform and on duty. Any police officer that takes a knee = useful idiot.

This is the third strike for Minneapolis. First, the pandering to the looters and rioters while for three days W-T-F, they destroyed black, hispanic, asian and white owned businesses. Second, they continue the pandering while ignoring the devastation to businesses, and Finally they are completely capitulating to mobs and the Communists.

If I owned a business in Minneapolis that was destroyed, I would look to the suburbs to rebuild. The police in Edina may not be able to protect your business, but they are likely to let you and your Roof Korean friends protect it yourself.

There will be lots of nice Commercial Space Available in the suburbs soon, as the Chinese Coronavirus and the Democrat Walz lockdowns and shutdowns bankrupt so many businesses. Already a bunch of restaurants have called it quits. I expect it is similar in many business lines.

Coming to Chicago...maybe why Rahm left...seen the coming script.

The Daily Mail gives some background:

White police officers and community members gathered to wash the feet of black faith leaders in North Carolina, echoing the Biblical story of how Jesus washed his disciples’ feet.

People of faith gathered for a unity march in Cary on Saturday, braving the summer heat to protest the brutal police killing of George Floyd and demand an end to racism.

Members of the Legacy Church Center, led by co-pastors Faith Wokoma and her husband Soboma, helped organize the unity prayer walk, where people gathered, observed eight minutes and 46 seconds of silence to mark how long a white cop had his knee on Floyd’s neck in killing him, and prayed for the country.

As a part of the event there was a ‘Washing of the Feet’ ceremony where at least three white law enforcement officers and three other white attendees washed the feet of pastors Faith and Soboma Wokoma.

This is not about Christian humility; this is about training people to be subordinate in a free nation.

In Chicago (holding an equal black/white population),if you are unlucky enough to be murdered, you are 17.5x more likely to be murdered by a black than you are a white. For those who think that is racist, here comes the sexist part; you are also 7x more likely to be killed by a male than you are a female.
Murder/Robbery in New York City
In 2010 NYC was 44% white, 25% black, 12% Asian, and 27% hispanic. In 2014 the population was 8.5M.
http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0108570.html
In 2012 Murder and non-negligent manslaughter offenders: black 55%, white 10%, Hispanic 30% http://www.nyc.gov/html/nypd/downloads/pdf/analysis_and_planning/crime_and_enforcement_activity_jan_to_jun_2012.pdf
In 2012 Robbery: black 70%, Hispanic 24%, white 5%. (arrests mirrored these percentages)
Race and crime in London. 10% of the 7.5M Londoners are black. In 2009-2010, regarding 'accusations" (I read this as police reports generated which an arrest in not necessarily made), blacks accounted for 59% of robberies and 54% of violent crimes in general.
NOTE: One aspect not taken into consideration is the age of the populations. I think 15-30 year olds are the higher crime age group.
Crime in Canada
In approx.. 1989 a police boss stated that while blacks made up 6% of Jane and Finch (an area in Toronto) population, they accounted for 82% of the robberies and muggings, 55% of the purse snatchings, and 51% of drug offenses in the previous year. Ontario police were then prohibited from keeping racial crime stats for the next 26 years.
In 2015 Problems arose when some sought info on the race of Canadians killed by the cops, apparently to support the B Lives matter narrative.
https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2015/08/17/a-thorny-history-of-race-based-statistics.html
Racial crime stats are effectively banned in Canada

Millennial Millie - Undercover Investigation - Minneapolis Riot was planned

Breaks it down really clearly as to who and why these "riots" are happening.

For most of you it will be no surprise.

For some of you it may start to make sense when you begin to connect the dots.

Either way, you know that this "crisis" is only the beginning.

Racism failed,
Homophobic, Xenophobic, Islamophobic failed,
Grab them by the puss failed,
Stormy Daniels failed,
Russian collusion failed,
Impeachment failed,
Chinese COVID-19 failed,
Asian killer hornet failed,
Floyd failed,
Starting to get the picture?

Just be ready for the next one.

Stay strong my brothers and sisters.

Minneapolis gets the city it voted for; have fun with it. The same people wanting the police defunded were mostly in the group calling to "burn it all down", who enabled and encouraged the recent events, and voted for the politicians who encouraged and allowed it. The same people who, when it was their property or lives that were being endangered, called for the police or the National Guard, even as they watched in glee as other neighborhoods were burned and wrecked, as other people were terrorized, beaten, and even killed.

Not that long ago the police in some cities (many of which are considering defunding the police) were very...active...in arresting moms with their kids at the parks, restaurant owners, people protesting the lockdown orders. Many seemed quite...vigorous in their enforcement of the mandates given to them by their mayors and governors.
The same police now are kneeling and washing protesters' feet; have been lying prone or kneeling in submission in front of rioters who have burned and looted the city.
Many of those same police voted for their city government leaders, past and present, who have created this mess. The police union has funded quite a lot of the same government officials who have created this mess and now say "defund the police", who have encouraged the police to do nothing to protect and serve innocent citizens and their property.

You get the things you enable; you get the things you allow. Citizens and police should probably remember this from now on.

No police might just work in Minneapolis. Its not really a city of 500,000. Once you factor in the immediate elimination of those people who just need killing, plus the usual innocent bystanders and the authentic crime victims, i think the population will be a whole lot less. After the first wave of killings, the population might get down to about the population of Mayberry. And one thing we know about Mayberry, North Carolina--there wasnt much policing going on, what with Sheriff Andy going fishing all of the time and bumbling Barney Fife not carrying a loaded gun. But at least there was no moonshining going on so Minneapolis has that to look forward to.

Illinois is burning
I will not be returning
I’m leaving the state where I was born
The smoke just keeps arising
And it’s not at all surprising
New taxes will push me from my home

Riot fires light up the night time sky
Now I sadly must say my good bye
So long to friends who’ve been so dear
Kimmee won’t try those who have hurt the peace
Arrest them now to soon be released
Farewell, my family who are buried here

Guvnor’s got a billion
And he’s acting like a villain
To buy all those votes to stay in charge
Mayor don’t know what she is
Is she a mister or is she a Ms
We’ve seen that her hate is very large

Illinois is burning
I will not be returning
It’s the state against me and my wife
We’ll be on the road to get away
Until we find a new place to stay
We’re leaving this state for a better life

He said Liberalism is the result of the Civil Rights era (paraphrasing) when Johnson, etc & whites had to say “okay, we did wrong, slavery, Jim Crowe, segregation, etc, was wrong- so this is how we atone: welfare, forced integration, bussing, etc. Liberalism became Whites attempt to buy back legitimacy and is essentially just another form of racism. It is Whites screaming “See I am not a racist!” George W. did mention “the soft bigotry of lowered standards” and that’s exactly what we have here, being dealt both by those inflicted with “White Guilt” apologists and the “Grievance Industry Blacks.” Stop it already.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murray-Hill_riot

Steven Pinker, the psychologist who was born and grew up in Montreal recalled how the wildcat police strike and the lawlessness that followed changed his views:

"As a young teenager in proudly peaceable Canada during the romantic 1960s, I was a true believer in Bakunin's anarchism. I laughed off my parents' argument that if the government ever laid down its arms all hell would break loose. Our competing predictions were put to the test at 8:00 a.m. on October 7, 1969, when the Montreal police went on strike. By 11:20 am, the first bank was robbed. By noon, most of the downtown stores were closed because of looting. Within a few more hours, taxi drivers burned down the garage of a limousine service that competed with them for airport customers, a rooftop sniper killed a provincial police officer, rioters broke into several hotels and restaurants, and a doctor slew a burglar in his suburban home. By the end of the day, six banks had been robbed, a hundred shops had been looted, twelve fires had been set, forty carloads of storefront glass had been broken, and three million dollars in property damage had been inflicted, before city authorities had to call in the army and, of course, the Mounties to restore order. This decisive empirical test left my politics in tatters (and offered a foretaste of life as a scientist)."[16]

Anyone know what the police pension liabilities are in Minneapolis?

Sounds like a plan from the city counsel to move the Budget from the PD to the community to decide how best to “police themselves”, when in reality if no one is paying into the pension it will go bust and in a few months they can start a new version of a PD, probably with no background or education requirements, low wages, and no pension payments. Big problem solved!

I was laying in bed, trying to figure out the root cause of all of our problems. And I think it comes down to: the only acceptable words/actions are lies, and the truth is evil. Think about it.

-Enforcement of law and order are bad (cops, jails, etc.)
-Systemic discrimination is real (racism, homophobia, islamophobia, etc.)
-White (hetero, male) privilege exists
-Global warming is real
-People who want to be left alone or pay less taxes are selfish
-People who loot, steal, attack are expressing themselves and should be left alone

There is NO LIE which is off-limits. There is no truth which is tolerable. And the media and big business enforce this. If you break the rules, you are ostracized. Unfortunately, just like with taxes, everything that is good will die a death of a thousand cuts, because no one is allowed to say or do anything about it, and any attempt at it is "hateful and self-serving".

I'd almost describe the whole plot as Satanic, ridiculous as that may sound...

It would take a very large county sheriff's office. Expect a lot of people to move out of the city

As far as the Hennepin County Sheriff's Office taking over, that would be a monumental task. The Hennepin County Sheriff has an extremely small "patrol" division. Most of their deputies work in either courts or the jail. The current deputies patrol the remaining really small towns in the county and or townships.

The other thing I predict is that other police departments in Minnesota will not be eager to hire former Minneapolis Police Officers. They will have a difficult time getting approval from the mayors and city councils in the suburbs (which is a current practice) to hire former MPD. It's an ugly situation. (BTW, I am former Minnesota law enforcement so I'm not just pulling this out of my ass).

Honestly the police should just pull out of these ungrateful communities. If they dont want you give them what they want, there are several communities that would be grateful to have you. Hell maybe go on strike for 3 to 6 months and let Chicago see what the real problem is.

Heaven forbid anyone where not all the loons are on the lake would check out the law.

It is possible for Minneapolis to get rid of its police department but either of the two ways gives the city far less control which, as I gather, is not what they want.

The city can form a joint police department with an adjacent municipality. Governance and assets would be shared.

Or the city can contract with the sheriff or another agency. In this case there is no meaningful control. Yes, they could pull out of the contract but the cost of doing so is prohibitive as they would have to rebuild the department's assets and infrastructure (stations, vehicles, radios, uniforms, etc.) from the ground up. County contracts work well in small communities (such as under 2500 people) but not so well as size increases.

So, if they want more control over the police department, the two options available under Minnesota law won't provide it.

Did anyone ask the social workers they plan to use to responcd to calls if they are OK with this idea? My guess is, they won't be and will insist on armed protection to respond, as will EMS and fire. They'll end up keeping the police, but a whole new level of bureaucracy and expense will be added, with social workers doing ride alongs when police respond to calls. The gov't will NEVER cut an expense, they'll just add on more layers and tie everyone up with more red tape, its what they do.

Not LEO, I foolishly decided to go shopping in Evanston yesterday. Didn't bother to check the news, and found myself on the edges of a massive, yes, peaceful, protest.

WAY too many people in a small area. The looks I got as it was obvious I was trying to get OUT of there and just handle my business were deadly. And when I thanked the POs who were so professional, so calm, keeping me and all those protesters safe, well, I almost feared for my safety. And I REALLY feared for the officers! Please know there are a lot of us out here, grateful everyday for the work you do. I am an essential worker as well, so I have a taste of unrelenting stress it has been to be out in an unsafe world, carrying on for the others. I cannot imagine how LEOs do it. You are my heroes!

ps, yes, avoiding the 'burbs from now on. I learn from my mistakes!

Minneapolis' city council is dominated by far-leftists. St. Paul's is just as bad.

The proposed de-funding of the Mpls police will only accelerate businesses fleeing Mpls.
Before the riots, Minneapolis businesses were being hammered by high minimum wages, high taxes, and an anti-business climate.

I spend half the year in Minnesota, and half in Illinois. I really hate living in blue states run by morons.

Those with more than 5 years to a pension need to check your hole card. Do you think the pension, hell the department will be there?
And if it is, are the two who dropped to play slabba blues on the WOKE meat whistle going to be the ones in charge?
The mayor hates LE and the chief, well lets just say he is special and leave it at that.
I would garner over half of the population really gives two hoots about officers and a quarter of the rest feels the same or worse than the mayor.
In my life I have had the honor of knowing some really top notch law officers. And have had incidences with those who bring dishonor to the badge. The great majority are good people in a thankless profession looking for their 20 years then out.
Friday, I lost a friend that was in law enforcement over 40 years. A Chief Deputy for 20 in a huge Texas county. When I was working on the road he kept me informed on my son's activities and him out of jail. His contribution to the community cannot be measured. A Vietnam veteran and one of those truly larger than life lawmen. Charlie Shaw.
These are the ones that become forgotten. The guys that make a bunch of knuckleheads pour their beer out then send them home. The guys that come up on a wreck where said knuckleheads got stupid. Instead of running them all in, as the law says they should, he calls a wrecker or two then the dad's to come pick them up.
Godspeed to you who follow this profession.

I truly hope they are successful. Make it a true social experiment. When you call 911 for a domestic battery, armed robbery or traffic crash, tell them to file their report at the local station to a report taker. It will only take a week or so before they cry for the police to return.

And with no cops they'll have to deal with pissed off citizens armed and more importantly higher iq than them and Somalians. No rules,no laws and no civil rights concerns. Initially it will be rough going for decent people but without the poleeces the troublemakers will become extinct.

So if I get pulled into an Minneapolis alley and some guy wants to batter and rape me ... I should just call ... ummmm - who should I call?

Oh yeah, it’s a DemoRat paradise so I guess I should just expect to suffer through the pain because I don’t matter ... only unproductive, crime infested community members matter.

6/08/2020 12:56:00 AM

Well, you're forgetting they're only unproductive and crime infested because they haven't been given enough compensation for their troubles.

You must not have read the high level report sent to Congress written by the founder of BET. And you obviously didnt watch his commentary on Fox news the other day either. It is this man's opinion that America needs to give away 14.3 or so trillion dollars to black people in reparations, so they can have their shot at becoming productive members of society. In his Fox interview he actually states that this money will put them on equal footing with whites, making them productive members of society, taxpayers and entrepreneurs.

Even better, this guy actually states the following:

"I look at it this way," Johnson responded. " ... We have tried every prescription that the senator [McConnell] has put forward, that Joe Biden put forward and that President Trump could put forward. We've talked about let's educate African-Americans. We've talked about let's build inner cities ... and invest in apprenticeship and training. The end result, Bret, is none of that has ever worked," he said.


So this guy thinks that black people can't be educated, can't get jobs even with free housing right next to job centers and can't be trained or bother to even spend the time in an apprenticeship to get a decent job. Basically he says black people can't learn, can't be bothered to learn and refuse to work when a job is put in front of them.

So what makes this nut think giving them 14 trillion dollars is going to suddenly snap them back to the reality those with white privilege must already know? That in America you're expected to actually GO to school and learn and actually work for a living?

No no, only after you give these folks 14 trillion dollars will they finally realize they have to work for a living. Giving away free money is the key to unlocking the understanding of education plus effort equals reward.

Does anyone else notice that its people like this who actually keep black people oppressed in this country? Giving people free stuff never helps someone better themselves. It doesn't work with spoiling a kid or bowing to antifa. But apparently this guy holds his race in such high regard he thinks they need free money to succeed.

There was a figure he gave per person. I believe it was about 350k per black person to achieve success in education and work ethic.

My God. Black people seem to be their own worst enemy.

If I were the city council members and mayor I would really put it to a vote in an election for the people of the city. I can guarantee that the majority of the city wants a police force in some shape or form. In a city that size you piss off just 100k voters and that’s enough to get you out of office. Same in Chicago. You try to do that and you will appease a small and loud minority of people but you will loose the others. Even many in the black community realize they absolutely need the police department. The only ones who don’t want the police are criminals. And by the civilian groups to roam the community to stop crime.. maybe armed groups?? Sounds like vigilantes. Also, without any other oversite you can expect for gangs to infiltrate and be a big part of these “community police forces”. I see a disaster and competing neighborhood community police departments getting violent with eachother to protect their own interests.

""Without a single cop" is not a accurate or truthful statement. County Sheriff still exists and will handle policing. Quite Frankly, this is Right and Proper. Y'all can expect the exact same thing happening across the nation."

While I understand where you're coming from, this still isn't going to end well. Hennepin County is a large county that includes not only Minneapolis but most of the first and second ring suburbs, whose citizens and land area greatly outsize that of Minneapolis itself. The already heavily taxed suburbs will not be keen on financing the massive expansion of the sheriff's office that would be necessary for keeping Minneapolis from burning itself to the ground.

For what it's worth, I'm originally from the South and am somewhat ambivalent about policing albeit for very different reasons than that of the Free Shit Army. But I'm also a pragmatist and I know a recipe for disaster when I see one. The next step will probably be Target (whose corporate tax revenue keeps the lights on) pulling out of their downtown headquarters. They recently built a massive campus on the north edge of the county with room for expansion, so it will be very easy for them to do. Wells Fargo will also accelerate their ongoing gradual relocation to South Dakota.

In Camden they did it and use of force complaints dropped 95%.

you're the past.



6/08/2020 02:37:00 AM

Camden’s violent crime rate in 2017 remained dire enough to place the city at number four on Neighborhood Scout’s annual list of America’s most dangerous cities. The number of nonfatal shooting hit incidents has dropped 45 percent since 2012—but is back up in 2017 from last year’s levels. Meanwhile, aggravated assaults with a firearm have gotten more frequent in the past three years.

The numbers themselves can be potentially misleading: Homicide rates, for example, aren’t necessarily a complete measure of urban violence. Just because fewer people are dying from gunshot wounds doesn’t mean fewer people are getting shot: It could also mean they’re getting better treatment, faster. One of Thomson’s Camden policies, nicknamed “Scoop and Go,” may be at work here, which mandates officers to personally drive victims to the hospital if ambulance wait times are too long. That saves lives, without really addressing the source of the violence itself. (Another possible factor: More victims are just getting to the hospital faster by calling an Uber.)

The result of this will simply be the transfer of some Law Enforcement duties from Municipal Police ( e.g., City of Minneapolis) to County Agencies (e.g., Hennepin County Sheriff). This will, by necessity, mean much Lateral hiring of personnel, new uniforms, etc., An Example: In some Canadian Provinces, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police are, simultaneously, Federal, Provincial, AND Local Law Enforcement.
