Trees murdered 2 adults and one child  in Melbourne Australia last night.

Wipe them all out! Should never have let them emigrate to your country to begin with.

Ones that can kill people should be wiped out.

Trump vows to stop the protests, slams the NBA, and continues to fail to address the Jacob Blake shooting.

Meanwhile, after 3 days to get their story straight and check the currently available evidence, they have put out their version of what happened.

https://www.cnn.com/2020/08/27/us/jacob-blake-wisconsin-thursday/index.html

And of course, no body cameras, despite everybody having agreed to get them 3 years ago!

Neuter nazi cops.

5 posts above yours,  Oilcan posted the same link.   Scary stuff.

Thanks. Oilcan had more to say on the issue.

Of all the problems we face, I fear this may be the most intractable.

We need a Liz Warren plan for police reform.

Systemic racism pervades real estate:

Jacksonville.

Remember going there one time.
That was enough.

Yes, first thing to do when selling your home or seeking an appraisal for refinancing...stage it, remove all traces of
"personal"... family photos etc.
Are there racist people in the world?
Yes.
Are there religionist people in the world?
Yes.

Your approach fails to fix two pieces of the systemic real estate racism:
a) Hiring somebody to sell or rent your home.
b) Trying to buy a home or rent one.

Nothing says optimism on the last day of the RNC than threatening a reporter for doing his job.

The irony here is that it is not the Trump Organization telling the reporter to cease and desist from attacking the blend of White House and Trump business/expenses, but the White House spokesman saying "leave the Trump org alone!"

https://www.cnn.com/2020/08/27/media/white-house-dossier-journalists/index.html

Quote
The White House said in a story published Thursday that it was compiling a "very large" dossier on a Pulitzer Prize-winning Washington Post reporter and others who it said are a "disgrace to journalism and the American people."

The astonishing revelation about the White House's efforts to discredit reporter David Fahrenthold came after The Post requested comment for a Thursday story he wrote with two colleagues. The story, co-bylined by reporters Josh Dawsey and Joshua Partlow, detailed how President Trump's company "charged the U.S. government more than $900,000" for hotel rooms fees among other services at Mar-a-Lago.

In a statement, White House spokesperson Judd Deere accused The Washington Post of "blatantly interfering with the business relationships of the Trump Organization" and demanded "it must stop."

"Please be advised that we are building up a very large 'dossier' on the many false David Fahrenthold and others stories as they are a disgrace to journalism and the American people," Deere said.

The democrat strategy has been simple.  Convince voters America is heading in the wrong direction.
Civil unrest?  No,!
They are peaceful protests.

Now even CNN  is not buying the strategy  anymore.



CNN host Don Lemon declared Tuesday night that now-deadly riots in Kenosha, Wis., have to stop if 2020 Democratic nominee Joe Biden wants to defeat President Trump on election day.

The rioting has to stop,” Lemon said. “It’s showing up in the polling. It’s showing up in focus groups. It is the only thing right now that is sticking.”


Good luck getting the toothpaste back in the tube.
