The leftist morality police and government are in full show here in New Mexico.
The only reason the right has been peaceful and support the police is their belief that most are good and for the most part the rule of law will give them a fair shake.
The second they lose that belief, they will start shooting. That moment is dangerously close.

And I'm afraid that when it happens, the left will realize that they have used up every last drop of mercy and compassion that the right had. Once you drive them to that point, the right will not be interested in surrender or prisoners or being nice anymore. The Left is in for a nasty nasty shock, because Americans are not Germans or French or the Europeans that roll over.

The mayor abandoned the place so no cops were present. They had to be called in after the fact.
BTW, the statue is of the first Spanish governor of the place. They've removed it now. The Donks just alienated a good part of the Hispanic community in their pursuit of virtue signaling.
The natives have animus towards the original gove cause after they killed his son and a siege of the pueblo where it happened, he had several adult males relieved of one of their feet. At that time in history, the Spanish were known to put the entire male population down in rebellious towns in the Low Counties. So, within that context, he was being rather humane.

"Your heritage is illegitimate - because I say so..." is a game everyone can play. Maybe that's the path to "equality."

This is on the front page of the WAPO: "The gunshots... have set off public outcry denouncing the unregulated militia group's presence..."
I suspect that if these guys were Antifa that headline would be a touch different.

Except they are regulated. By the 1789 militia and national guard act.
Minnesota Democrat Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's father died due to the coronavirus, she announced last night. One of two Muslim congresswomen, Omar said her father, 67-year-old Nur Omar Mohamed, died of COVID-19 complications.
Apparently he is the one who brought her from Somalia. Is he the war criminal, Phusorong Platypus6384?
[NYPOST] After months under lockdown, scared for our lives, Americans are tired. We were united in our outrage over the death of Floyd. But it’s downright scary to watch liberal elected officials respond to the very real problem of police brutality by giving license to lawlessness and acquiescing to bizarre demands like "defund the police." Police officers are being shot at regularly, and it barely makes the news. We’ve decided to punish every officer in the country for the actions of a handful in Minneapolis.Like much else over the last few months, it makes no sense.
We are aching for normal, whatever that means anymore. I suppose the 2020 election will come down to which candidate will restore a sense of normality. Joe Foreign Policy Whiz Kid Biden ...I had the great honor of being arrested with our UN Ambassador on the streets of Soweto, trying to get to see him on Robbens Island... ’s entire candidacy has been premised on "making America 2015 again," as the satirist Marty Beckerman has put it. But can a Biden beholden to an ever-more-bonkers left deliver normality?
President Trump’s official slogan is "Keep America Great." Yet his unofficial one, seen on signs in some states, is: "Trump 2020: No More Bulls - - t."
We know what Biden means by normality: no late-night presidential tweet threats or fights picked with members of the media or his own party. But we also intrinsically understand what the Trump campaign might mean with its call to resist bulls - - t. The Seattle comrades forming an "autonomous" zone, and the Minneapolis ones calling for disbanding the police, fit the bill perfectly.
We shall see which idea of normal will win come November.

We don't yearn for normalcy. We demand victory.

I'll watch the BBA because of the Celtics. I stopped watching MLB full-time when they went on strike in 1994. I'll watch Bruins (not much - local announcer Jack Edwards is as annoying as anyone at ESPN) and some playoff hockey. I'll definitely watch NFL unless the stadiums are half-empty - to me, that's half the niceness about sports, having a crowd that isn't smashing & burning stuff; drunken brawls in the stands would be an improvement over what's going on now.
[Axios, in high dudgeon] President Trump, in a highly unusual new effort, has begun making significant staffing changes inside top federal agencies without the consent — and, in at least one case, without even the knowledge — of the agency head, according to officials familiar with the effort.
Why it matters: This campaign — helmed by Trump's loyalty enforcer, a 30-year-old former body man who now runs hiring for the government — is part of the systematic purging or reassigning of those deemed insufficiently supportive of Trump.
The effort's pace has alarmed top officials, according to 11 current and former officials with direct knowledge of the situation.
Behind the scenes: Trump has empowered John McEntee, director of the Presidential Personnel Office, in a way his predecessors never were. In his short time on the job, McEntee has flexed this power, steamrolling Cabinet officials and agency heads to install his chosen candidates.
[IsraelTimes] "Why is a large worship gathering deemed more dangerous than a mass protest,’ asks attorney for religious groups.
Three Orthodox Jews from Brooklyn and two Catholic priests are suing New York Gov. Andrew Sonny Cuomo and other New York officials over continued restrictions on houses of worship due to the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague) ...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men... pandemic.
The lawsuit, filed Wednesday, also names New York City Mayor Comrade Bill de Blasio ...cryptocommie mayor of New York and for some reason a Dem candidate for president in 2020. Corrupt and incompetent, his qualifications for office seem to consist of being married to a black woman, with whom he honeymooned in Cuba. He has a preppy-looking son named Dante, whose Divine Comedy involved getting his back hair up when a police car drove past him slowly. New Yorkers voted for him, so they deserve him... and state Attorney General Letitia James as defendants. It accuses Cuomo of violating the plaintiffs’ rights to free exercise of religion and speech by limiting the number of people who can attend religious services, a move Cuomo made in mid-March to slow the spread of disease in New York.
Earlier this month, Cuomo issued an executive order permitting houses of worship to open at 25% capacity in areas designated as phase two of the state reopening plan, which includes all of the state except for New York City. Houses of worship had been slated for the fourth stage of reopening.
The Orthodox Jewish plaintiffs — Elchanan Perr, Daniel Schonborn and Mayer Mayerfeld — live in Brooklyn, where houses of worship are currently capped at just 10 attendees.
The three men joined with two Catholic priests to challenge the emergency orders. "These orders, both the emergency stay-at-home and reopening plan declarations, clearly discriminate against houses of worship," Christopher Ferrara, special council for the Thomas More Society, which is representing the plaintiffs, said in a statement.
"Why is a large worship gathering deemed more dangerous than a mass protest, full of shouting, arm-waving people in close proximity to one another?" he added, referring to the protests in New York and across the country in the wake of the death of George Floyd in police custody in Minneapolis.
The most surprising news here is that Bill de Blasio knows how to weldhttps://t.co/jTd1G7QiuX

a move Cuomo made in mid-March to Might just possibly depending on the tea leaves on a good day slow the spread of disease in New York by half a nursing homes worth.
