    Will, protestors be hitting the streets of Chicago for little three-year-old Mekhi James? He was black, did his life matter?  His own Dad won't even cooperate with the police to identify gis killers. Am I to surmise when black people kill black people it should ignore it? And, I must ask with the crime rising in many of our major Democrat-run cities is it wise to abolish law enforcement? Seems like there should be an outcry for justice for this baby. Seem's like so many black children are killed due to crime. Maybe more should be done on their behalf, maybe these children's lives should matter...

    CHICAGO (AP) — Fourteen people, including five children, were killed as more than 100 people were shot in a wave of gunfire in Chicago over the Father’s Day weekend that produced the city’s highest number of shooting victims in a single weekend this year.

    Among the victims was 3-year-old Mekhi James, who police said was fatally shot Saturday as the boy was in a car with his father in the south Austin neighborhood.

    Police said the child's 27-year-old father was the intended target when someone fired shots at the vehicle, but he is not cooperating with detectives. Community leaders are offering a $10,000 reward for any information in the boy's killing.

      Sharlee, it is suspicious why this little black life doesn't seem to matter ...
      at all.
      A "Someone" can fire shots.
      That Someone was running freely causing death and destruction.
      That Someone will probably not be caught.
      And that's the problem.
      He/she can't be used for some political narrative aimed toward increasing control and power ...
      for the democrats.

    If Biden gets in, which is their ambition, the country will be ruled by the policies of the left which has become increasingly radical.

    AND THATS FINE?

    No police is fine?
    Statues of Dolly Parton and who knows who else is fine?
    Socialism is fine?
    High taxes are fine?
    Rule of the mob is fine?
    Rampant corruption is fine?

    Our new best friend will be China
    and that is perfectly FINE?

    Well, NO!

      Last night one of the higher-ups in BLM put out the order to break all stained glass and bring down white Jesus. This is a step too far. If there is a threat to my church, I will be there, to stop these disgusting human beings.  I live in Michigan, and we have a Dem Governor. If she does not see fit to do her job protecting our churches as well as our businesses the citizens will.  These Dem states are out of control and need to regain law and order or the Government should step in.

      I am over placating anyone that hopes to tear the country down.

    freedom requires boundaries

    We need to identify and stop thugs/ prevent their lawlessness behavior.

    Law enforcement is a common sense matter.

    We all know that anarchy is used to bring about the chaos which will eventually allow a Mussolini type to enter and "remedy" the situation.


    Stop the anarchy now, I say!

    But what would happen if Trump took a stronger position on clamping down on the bad stuff, (featured so gleefully by the media,) which we see happening in Minneapolis, Chicago, New York and Seattle!

    I shudder to think!

    And that's how far away the majority (?) of people are from supporting what is right over what is dead wrong.

    It's dead wrong
    - not to set boundaries
    - not to enforce rule of law.
    - not to follow through on that which provides justice.

      I agree with your every word.  You note these thugs only stay in Dem states, where they know they can use liberals to shield them. Just a fact...
