Abolish the police! Control your own traffic. In case of murder, track the killer down yourself and either kill him or a family member unless he pays weregeld. Robbed? Replace what was stolen by knocking over a store.
[Jpost] Aaron Klein, former Breitbart journalist, hired by Netanyahu as strategic consultant; Said Biden should be concerned about Russian collusion.
Aaron Klein, a former journalist for Breitbart, was hired by Netanyahu as a strategic and communications consultant for the Likud Party.
“Klein left a full-time successful career as a reporter to help Israel, as it finds itself facing unprecedented challenges during the coronavirus pandemic, amid the international debate on the issue of applying sovereignty and other pressing matters,” a Likud source said.
The Jerusalem-based Klein worked on strategy during the Likud’s campaign in the last election and his role was praised by the campaign chairman and current Finance Minister Israel Katz. During that time, he became especially close to Netanyahu.“Working with Prime Minister Netanyahu is what I’d imagine it would be like to work with Winston Churchill,” Klein told The Jerusalem Post.
He has interviewed Yasser Arafat, politicians and terrorists for Hamas and other terror groups. He is the author of three New York Times best-sellers, most notably Schmoozing with Terrorists: From Hollywood to the Holy Land, Jihadists Reveal their Global Plans.He also wrote a critical book about Obama in 2010 entitled The Manchurian President: Barack Obama's Ties to Communists, Socialists and Other Anti-American Extremists.
[JPost] - International Criminal Court Prosecutor Fatou Bensouda has told the ICC's Pretrial Chamber that a war crimes probe against Israelis can proceed despite the continued application of the Oslo Accords.
Israel and its allies have claimed that the Oslo Accords prevent the PA from seeking ICC involvement in a potential criminal issue and from seeking statehood absent a deal between the parties. Bensouda's decision on Monday was a rejection of Israel's legal argument.
[YNet] - Authorities say a man drove a car at George Floyd protesters in Seattle Sunday night, hit a barricade then exited the vehicle brandishing a pistol. At least one person was injured.
The Seattle Fire Department said the victim was a 27-year-old male who was shot and taken to a hospital in stable condition.
Video taken by a reporter for The Seattle Times showed part of the scene in the city's Capitol Hill neighborhood, where demonstrators have gathered for days near a police precinct. Yippee-Ki-Yay, Motherf*ckers!
[Ynet] Saudi Arabia could drastically limit numbers at the annual haj pilgrimage to prevent a further outbreak of coronavirus after cases in the country topped 100,000, sources familiar with the matter said on Monday.
Some 2.5 million pilgrims visit the holiest sites of Islam in Mecca and Medina for the week-long haj, a once-in-a-lifetime duty for every able-bodied Muslim who can afford it. Official data show haj and the lesser, year-round umrah pilgrimage earns the kingdom about $12 billion a year.
Saudi Arabia asked Muslims in March to put haj plans on hold and suspended umrah until further notice.

Wait, if there are no police then there will be no gun control, so open carry and ccw for all? Does this also mean vigilante justice and street trials and hanging? Minneapolis as Dodge City? Or is the paramilitary force of the Nation of Islam in the wings?

Call a Hollywood celebrity. They'll be glad to fly over to get you out of trouble. After all, that's what happens routinely in their movies, so what's a little extra off-the-set practice?
Lots of photos. Lots of calm men, some in the kit they brought home, some ladies of various cheerful vintages, and the last photo is a natty gentleman who’d set aside the jacket of his three piece suit, the better to display his tie bar, cufflinks, and pockets clearly full of spare magazines.
[ItsMac] If you ventured to downtown Coeur d’Alene, Idaho last night you would think you had entered a Militia family reunion. No one has an accurate count of how many heavily armed citizens came out to support peaceful protestors and protect local businesses and citizens against shipped in ANTIFA members but it was certainly HUNDREDS, perhaps over a THOUSAND.
“We just drove downtown Coeur d’Alene. It is packed with armed citizens. I’ve never seen so many AR-15s in my life. There’s at least a thousand armed citizens walking on the sidewalks and the streets are packed with cars and trucks with guys in the back with AR-15 and American flags everywhere. We saw two protesters wearing their little black clothing and black masks and sitting on a step quietly with their little poster board sign saying “our system sucks!” Guess why they’re being so polite.”~Keith Gibson, Coeur d’Alene resident.
Word got out that ANTIFA was going to ship in rioters to mingle with peaceful protestors in our quiet little town…and indeed they did as several white Mercedes vans were seen with dozens of people that didn’t belong in our community. It was also made known that they were planning to use the local WINCO store as their staging ground. After learning this, a well organized local group of concerned citizens set up a post in the parking lot to ensure that these unwelcomed invaders clearly understood that the citizens of Coeur d’Alene would have ZERO tolerance for any type of violence or destructive behavior in our town.
Title from the print version, not the same at the website.
[Dallas News] The protests and marches defy notions of Dallas’ suburbs, especially some to the north, as wealthy and self-absorbed. Instead, many have become large, diverse communities confronting the same issues as their more urban counterparts. That's my meme, and I'm stickin' to it!
...or maybe it’s just Revolution Cosplay in the ‘burbs, trying to be all kewl and edgy and stuff...
The suburban outcry is a national phenomenon, with demonstrations taking place in Columbia, Md., near Baltimore; in Paoli, Pa., outside Philadelphia; in Goodyear, Ariz., west of Phoenix; and in the Portland, Ore., suburb of Tualatin.
In North Texas, the gatherings, while emotional, have largely been peaceful, as in Frisco, Plano, Richardson and Addison. Others turned confrontational, with looting in Arlington and tear gas in Lewisville, each triggering a handful of arrests.
Some, like Addison's Pamela Augustus, saw suburbs as safer places to introduce kids to the idea of protest as a means of social change. While her husband, who is black, was unable to take off of work to go to the city's Thursday afternoon event, she thought it was important to attend with her 7-year-old son, Carter, and 3-year-old daughter Avery. The very model progressive.
Scott Sosebee, associate history professor at Stephen F. Austin University, noted the minority migration in recent decades into suburbs that were once bastions of white flight. As a result, those suburbs are no longer homogeneous outposts of conservatism – and their emotional reaction to the Floyd's death reflects that. Because we all know people of color vote (D), no matter where they live. Candace Owens was not included.
... or the Blaxiteers, possibly as much as 20% of the African-American population, if the latest polls are to be believed.
It's Kurt
[Townhall] For way too long, too many conservatives and other normal people have failed to deploy our most potent weapon in the defense of free thought and expression – the utter refusal to go along with the demands of the carnivorous left. As has been said before by me and others, we need to introduce these spoiled brats to the concept of "no."
This is a critical moment, and how we react now will determine if our future is citizenship or serfdom. The Democrats' kinetic operation that was the rioting has failed, the violent thuggery egged-on and enabled by half-wit MSNBCNN talk-holes, feckless lefty pols, and the blue check jerk-stapo ended up appalling the voters, and not just Republicans. The grave strategic error of sending the masked marauders of Marxism marching into limo lib enclaves like Beverly Hills convinced a lot of people who hate Trump that maybe law and order isn't such a bad thing after all. Defund the police? Yeah, that's a tough sell outside a sociology department. Mansions and BMWs burn just like churches and police cars do.
BLUF:
[Victory Girls] If you haven’t caught on yet, let me be frank about the #DefundPolice scam. It isn’t about any of the elements that could be immediately addressed to improve law enforcement agencies and their procedures, it’s about making them less effective. It’s about shifting vast amounts of taxpayer money into so-called community services and peace centers. In other words, money that will disappear into the blackhole of new bureaucracies headed up by career politicians with political cronies to "take care" of the spending.
#DefundPolice marks a time where the Democrats want to return to a system of patronage, where cronies will control "their" community with rewards or punishments according to how each individual or business is in the good graces of their unelected community leaders.
Be a shame if anything bad were to happen to your business, home or family, right? Who you gonna call? 9-1-1 now rings into the Peace Center.

A step further than Affirmative Action. With separate legal systems and judges already in place, they intend to have their own tribal law enforcement structure. It's a separatist tribal movement, always has been.
It's the same blame game as with slavery. The Donks project blame on everyone else for their history of slavery, the Klan, and segregation. Now they're blaming America for their police departments that they've owned and operated.
[The Hill] Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) joined protesters marching in Washington, D.C., in response to the death of George Floyd on Sunday as demonstrations continue to sweep the country amid calls for police reform.
Videos and photos of the event showed Romney walking in the street while wearing a mask to prevent the spread of the coronavirus, which health officials have warned could spike as a result of the massive demonstrations around the country. In an interview with NBC, Romney explained that "many voices" needed to join together and stand against racism in the U.S.
"We need a voice against racism. We need many voices against racism and against brutality. And we need to stand up and say black lives matter," he told an NBC reporter.
[Zero] Though largely overlooked and ignored in the now 24/7 mainstream network coverage of racial injustice in America, Chicago witnessed another deadly weekend of inner-city black on black gang-related violence, with over 30 people shot.
"Three people are dead and at least 28 others have been injured in shootings across the city this weekend," a Chicago NBC affiliate reports.
This after on the same Memorial Day weekend that George Floyd was heinously killed by police in Minnesota, Chicago had witnessed a whopping nearly 50 people shot in one of the city's deadliest ever holiday weekends (where ten died from their wounds, including young people).
At a moment "Black Lives Matter" chants can be heard overtaking most every major American city, the now weekly reality of dozens tragically dying in black-on-black crime in Chicago and some other large cities (a trend that tends to increase into the hot summer months) remains a huge 'blind spot' in terms of the current ideologically charged media debate and public discourse.
Washington (CNN) Former Republican Secretary of State Colin Powell said Sunday that President Donald Trump has "drifted away" from the Constitution, adding to a growing list of former top military officials who have strongly criticized the President's response to the nationwide protests surrounding the police killing of George Floyd.
"We have a Constitution. And we have to follow that Constitution. And the President has drifted away from it," Powell, a retired general who served under President George W. Bush, told CNN's Jake Tapper on "State of the Union."
The comments from Powell, the first African American secretary of state and chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, add to a growing list of rebukes made in recent days by former top officials who have expressed discontent with Trump's strongman approach to the protests sparked by the death of Floyd, a black man who was killed in late May by a white police officer in Minneapolis. Under the watchful eye of Klingon Director George Tenet, Speaking at the UN on Iraqi WMD trailers, which were actually were not.
Powell said he's "proud" of what a number of former generals, admirals and diplomats have said about Trump's response last week to the widespread protests, adding that he hadn't released a public statement denouncing Trump's response because he felt he had demonstrated his displeasure with Trump in 2016 when he voted against him.
"I think what we're seeing now, is (the most) massive protest movement I have ever seen in my life, I think it suggests the country is getting wise to this and we're not going to put up with it anymore," the retired general told Tapper.

Um, Collie, baby (can I call you Collie?) Try to remember a little post-revolutionary war American history. Shay's Rebellion? The Whiskey Rebellion? There is nothing unconstitutional about putting down rebellions, even if some of the rioters share the same skin tones with you.
Yeah. He voted for Baraq too. We know he fully supports Affirmative Action in the military as well as in civilian life. And we know that Bush made a lot of mistakes too.

Please review the entities 'SDS', 'Weathermen' and 'Black Panthers'. Eight paragraphs for each group should be sufficient.

Abe "Habeas Corpus" Lincoln was a dictator. President Trump doesn't come close by a long shot. But, it's just another label the Dems/Left use when they can't argue successfully against him.
[Guns America] Sometimes it is the little things that are ultimately the most important. A modest mistake can topple a government, while an unexpected turn can secure a glorious victory. In today’s tale, an innocuous injury ultimately shaped the destiny of the planet.
The time was October of 1896, and this fresh-faced English Cavalry officer was the long arm of the British Empire. He served at the whim of the Crown. His first serious posting took him to Bombay, India.
[Federalist] U.S. Attorney General William Barr rebuked the false narrative perpetuated by legacy media Sunday that protestors cleared near the White House last week were gathering in peaceful demonstrations. On Monday, protestors were dispersed by park police by pepper balls as the city neared at 7 p.m. curfew by Barr’s orders moments before President Donald Trump walked across the street to observe the damage done to the historic St. John’s Church.
"They were not peaceful protestors," Barr said on CBS’ Face the Nation. "That’s one of the big lies that the media is—seems to be perpetuating at this point."
CBS’ Margaret Brennan pushed back citing several of the network’s reporters who were present.
"Three of my CBS colleagues were there. We talked to them," Brennan said. "They did not hear warnings."

Barr is not the only one who knows the true nature of the protestors. This video is from Idaho of people implementing their constitutional second amendment individual right to keep and bear arms on June 1, 2020, a right ratified on December 15, 1791:

It does seem that most attempts to take the crazy out of the Democrat big cities and into suburbs and smaller towns have met with very limited success.
I'm glad Idaho has been peaceful. Seems my initial worries were unfounded.
[SOFREP] On the night of Monday, June 1, St. Louis was a battlefield. Parts of the city were at the mercy of Antifa-backed looters and rioters, who were burning down businesses and stealing their contents. The violent protestors were hurling gasoline at police officers and then throwing fireworks, aiming to burn them alive. Gunfire could be heard throughout the city as officers repeatedly came under fire from the mob.
That night, retired St. Louis Police Captain David Dorn was shot and killed while trying to protect a business; four other police officers were also evacuated to the hospital with gunshot wounds in separate incidents.
Ryan Murphy, one of the officers, would have probably died on the spot if it weren’t for a fellow officer and former Navy SEAL.
Displaying extraordinary calm under fire, Joe Busso, a member of the St. Louis Police Department SWAT Team, provided critical first aid to Murphy before evacuating him to the hospital.
A United States Marine, who is now a member of Missouri law enforcement, described to SOFREP how Busso, a member of the St. Louis Police Department SWAT Team, applied life-saving treatment to save fellow officer Ryan Murphy.
“Things were terrible that night. The streets were crazy with gunfire and the radio traffic was nonstop with report after report of guys under fire,” said the former Marine. “The average person has no idea how violent and lawless the streets of St. Louis have become. Criminals are operating with impunity, using long guns to fire hundreds of rounds at police officers. Looters are running rampant. The police are brave, but they have no leadership and no support from the Mayor, the Governor, or anyone.”

This is obscene — I had no idea it was that bad.
It is indeed bad, Besoeker.
I'm probably out - these are dangerous times and for personal and family reasons it's probably not prudent to post any longer (celebrate with some hooch, Skid!). So here's a last rant that summarizes my take on why what we're seeing is uniquely dangerous:
As I see it these riots are qualitatively different from previous festivities such as LA '92 and Detroit '67.
The first difference is the hand of BLM-Antifa, coordinating and propelling the anarchy behind the scenes. Neither the Black Panthers nor the Weahermen nor any other violent revolutionary groups had any meaningful involvement in any previous riot. This is a coordinated insurrection.
Second, this Insurrection was likely planned for November: the real goal was and is to disrupt and destabilize democratic institutions. This goal they share with their Panther-Weathermen ancestors. But BLM-Antifa have support from within the elite. They have actually gained a strong foothold in the Establishment in ways that the earlier revolutionaries never did or could.
"Defund the police" + ritual self-abasement are not the acts of a few isolated masochists and assorted madmen. In the Trump era these gestures are resonating with America's most powerful and influential figures - across not just elite media and the Democratic Party but also the Never-Trump GOP, the top military brass, and Fortune 50 CEOs.
Perhaps this is just a hula hoop craze, a kind of virtue-signaling frenzy that ultimately means nothing. We can hope.
But it's also possible that large elements of the Establishment are telling us that they will not oppose this insurrection. If it becomes clear that the forces upholding public safety can no longer do so with the support of elected officials and the nation's most powerful economic and military figures, then the inevitable result will be a northern version of what you see across the big cities of Brazil.
That is, wealth and first-world elegance side by side with third-world squalor, anarchy and desolation, with a corrupt state apparatus and a harassed middle class squeezed and looking to escape.
We're already seeing this play our locally in the leftist-captured big cities such as DeBlasio's New York.
No conspiracy theorist here, and I never would have said this before, but given the extreme spread of this madness across our elites, it's hard to believe that our liberties are truly safe any more.
We've finally been Latinized. The Dems' strategy for a "emerging majority" has been realized - not ethnically, as they aimed to do with tens of millions of illiterate Mexican immigrants but politically, by our own homegrown version of Che and Castro: our black-bloc Bolivarians.
Only the courts remain intact to defend our rights. Cold comfort, that.
‘Twas I — Besoeker is grey highlighter with red type. He’s the only one who gets red — Rantburg’s Related is done in his colours on the Rantburg background, I just realized.
Besides, Besoeker is experienced in all sorts if interesting things, supremely cynical about many of them, and connected. He probably had a fairly accurate idea of what the words in the reports meant.
Air Force Sergeant Steven Carrillo, 32, is suspect in ambush which left sheriff's deputy dead

Two other Santa Cruz County Sheriff's deputies were wounded
Gutzwiller leaves behind a small child and his pregnant wife
A 911 caller claimed they saw guns and bomb making materials inside a van
Gutzwiller and another deputy responded and saw the van driving away
After following the van to a home, they got out of their patrol car
That's when they were ambushed with gunfire and explosives, authorities said
FBI is also investigating whether the ambush is linked to the fatal shooting of a Federal security officer, Dave Underwood, 53, near a US courthouse on May 29
In 2018, Carrillo's wife, US Air Force Airman 1st Class Monika Carrillo, was found dead in an apparent suicide

Gretchen Whitmer ...Her Excellency, the dictator of Michigan, 2020 Dem VP contender... , who forced him to shutter his business.
Barber Karl Manke defied shutdown orders from Whitmer and reopened his shop despite state orders prohibiting retail reopenings. Whitmer, who has drawn heavy criticism for her refusal to bend to demands on reopening businesses, subsequently pulled Manke’s license, heavily fined him, and denounced his activity.

[ALMASDARNEWS] The Ottoman Turkish-backed Government of National Accord (GNA) forces, headed by Fayez al-Sarraj, announced on Saturday that its forces advanced from three axes to the city center of Sirte.
The GNA said that they advanced in the Jarif, Saheli and seven hubs to the center of Sirte, indicating the retreat and withdrawal of the Libyan National Army (LNA).
The GNA, backed by The Sick Man of Europe Turkey ...Qatar's satrapy in Asia Minor... , announced that they had tightened control over the town of Washaka and continued to advance east towards the city of Sirte to extract it from the grip of the LNA.
"Our heroic forces have taken control of the town of al-Washaka, bypassing the Bweirat al-Hassoun area and are advancing aggressively to hit the city of Sirte," the group said.
This comes hours after the GNA forces announced the launch of a new operation called "Path of Victory" with the aim of controlling the areas of al-Washaka, Buwairat, al-Hassoun, Jarf, Abu Hadi, Sirte and al-Jafra.
[ALMASDARNEWS] On Saturday, the Ottoman Turkish-backed Government of National Accord (GNA) forces launched a big offensive to capture the port-city of Sirte and several towns nearby.
Backed by Ottoman Turkish drones, the GNA forces scored a quick advance to start off the offensive, as their troops reportedly captured several areas and entered the city of Sirte.
However, those who apply themselves too closely to little things often become incapable of great things... hours later, the Libyan National Army (LNA) announced that they had managed to drive back the GNA forces, posting a video of their troops in control of the areas that were previously reported as lost.
The LNA said their troops killed and maimed several members of the GNA forces, while also destroying a number of their mechanisms.
The city of Sirte is located on the Libyan coast between Tripoli ...a confusing city, one end of which is located in Lebanon and the other end of which is the capital of Libya. Its chief distinction is being mentioned in the Marine Hymn... and Benghazi, and is 450 km east of the capital.
As of Saturday, the city and its outskirts witnessed an abundance of violence, as the Ottoman Turkish-backed GNA forces announced that it had tightened control of the town of al-Washaka and continued to advance east towards the city of Sirte to extract it from the grip of the Libyan National Army.
Earlier in the day, the GNA said that they had advanced at Jarif, al-Sahili, and the center of Sirte, indicating the retreat and withdrawal of the LNA troops; however, this was later denied by the latter.

Police officers in uniform and presumably on duty are performing in political propaganda theatrics.
They are ritually submitting themselves, in their official capacity, to authorities outside of the legal and constitutional framework of a free and open constitutional republic.
Will these police officers now, nominally in their official capacity, impose the will of these new authorities on the general public?
Can the general public expect protection from these officers if there's illegal abuse by these new authorities?
Or is this the beginning of officially sanctioned anarcho-tyranny?

You know, like when JFK was deleted by the entire city of Dallas.

I wouldn't mind taking a peek at Dr. Fauxi's stock portfolio or tax returns. He's, what, 79 years old & in the same job for 5-6 presidents? Hmmm, reminds me of Pelosi, Feinstein, Chuckie S., and many others, Dem or GOP.
[Otago Daily] Former Russian spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia are reportedly settling into new lives with assumed identities in New Zealand.
The father and daughter - who were poisoned by Russian military intelligence agents - moved to New Zealand after spending more than a year in a British MI6 safe house, according to the Sunday Times of London.
A senior government source told the Sunday Times the two were given new identities and support to start their new lives here.
Skripal and his daughter were both found unconscious on a park bench in Salisbury, UK, in March 2018.
The two had been poisoned with Novichok, a chemical nerve-agent from the Soviet era. Russian operatives Anatoly Chepiga and Alexander Mishkin were found to have smeared it on a door handle at their home.
Skripal once worked as a Russian spy but things turned south for him when his old colleagues found out he was acting as a double agent on behalf of the British in the 1990s and 2000s.

[PRESSTV] US special operations forces are currently testing and evaluating an Israeli-developed computerized fire control and rifle sight system downrange in Syria, according to the US Special Operations Command (SOCOM).
"We are evaluating the Smart Shooter system as a potential individual-level solution to enhancing Special Operations Forces capabilities for countering unmanned aerial systems," SOCOM front man Lt. Cmdr. Tim Hawkins confirmed as quoted in a Friday report by US-based military news outlet Task & Purpose.
According to the report, the SMASH 2000, developed by Israeli military contractor Smart Shooter in cooperation with Sig Sauer, uses a weapon-mounted optic and special pistol grip that "allows you to acquire, lock on and engage targets ... [and] the weapon to fire only when it's a guaranteed hit," as stated by company CEO Devin Schweiss.
Photos published to the Defense Visual Information Distribution Service (DVIDS) on May 30, first reported by The War Zone, show several US soldiers at the Syria-based At-Tanf military garrison engaging targets with M4 carbines outfitted with a SMASH 2000 system.
Hawkins further added that the command purchased the SMASH 2000 systems from Smart Shooter in March 2019 to evaluate the capability in an operational environment.

[TWITTER] Nine members of the Minneapolis City Council formally announced plans to dismantle the Minneapolis Police Department and committed to establishing a new community-led system. The move comes amid protests against police brutality and the death of George Floyd. The city's mayor Jacob Frey was booed at a Black Lives Matter protest on June 6 after telling a group of demonstrators that he did not support abolishing the city's police department.

According to a field report from northwestern Syria, the Syrian Air Force heavily targeted bases and dens belonging to Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham (HTS) and the Turkestan Islamic Party (TIP) in western Aleppo.
The airstrikes reportedly spread to the Idlib and Hama governorates, where the warplanes targeted jihadist trenches and hideouts in areas like Jabal Al-Zawiya and the Al-Ghaab Plain.
Despite the presence of Turkish air defense systems near the city of Idlib, the Syrian Air Force conducted these airstrikes with virtually no resistance.
Since receiving a new batch of MiG-29 jets from the Russian Ministry of Defense, the Syrian Air Force has intensified their strikes against the jihadist forces in Idlib, Aleppo, Latakia, and Hama.
In addition to receiving these aircraft, the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) has also acquired a new batch of tanks and armored vehicles from the Russian Ministry of Defense.
These latest deliveries from the Russian Ministry of Defense come at a time when the Syrian Army prepares to launch a new attack inside the Idlib Governorate.

[WZZM via Zero Hedge] Lowell, Michigan Police Chief Steven Bukala was forced to resign on Thursday after 25 years with the force, after writing on Facebook in support of four young men who armed themselves against potential violent protesters.
Responding to phone calls that 2nd Amendment demonstrators were open carrying down Main Street, Bukala wrote on the Lowell Police Deparment's Facebook page on Tuesday: "We are aware and no need to call us," adding "We at the Lowell Police Department support the legally armed citizen and the Second Amendment," according to WZZM13.
After a flood of complaints as part of what WZZM says was a "pattern of inappropriate behavior," the city manager told Bukala to resign by 5 p.m. on Friday or be fired at 5:01 p.m.
A disciplinary action report from city manager Michael Burns said Bukala was directed to make the post so residents were aware of the demonstrators. But when Burns read the last line, it appeared to be a political position, "possibly escalating rhetoric."
Burns asked him to remove that line, and Bukala responded with "This is a true statement."
The post gained some traction within the community, and Burns described the social media activity around it as "hostile." The official Lowell Police Department Facebook page also added to the statement and defended it in the comments.
"People!" started one comment, which said Lowell has had open carry demonstrators in town before. "Yes people are hypersensitive due to the riots and anarchists that have come to Michigan. They are exercising their right to open carry. No one has to agree or disagree." The comment was signed "Chief." -WZZM
Three days after a riot in Grand Rapids, Michigan, Bukala wrote on his personal Facebook page: "So these fine young men called me today. They wanted to exercise their Second Amendment rights and walk down Main Street. They saw what happened in Grand Rapids. They said it’s not going to happen here. We have your backs. I thanked them for letting me know they were in town and to call if they see something."
On Thursday, the Lowell PD apologized on its Facebook page, writing "We have made mistakes on social media this week, starting with an ill-considered message posted on the Lowell Police Department Facebook page. We then defended this message, arguing with residents or dismissing their concerns."
The PD apologized, adding "we must take this opportunity to listen and learn so we can work together to defeat racism and build a more just and equitable society. We can and must do better."
According to the city manager, Bukala was cited for violating city policy, including "conduct unbecoming of a police officer," adding "Personnel shall not allow personal feelings to influence their professional conduct."
[BBC] The New York Times
...which still proudly displays Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize... ' opinion editor has resigned amid outrage over a piece by a Republican senator calling for military force to be used to quell protesters.
James Bennet stepped down after Senator Tom Cotton's article, entitled "Send in the Troops", caused revolt among the newspapers' journalists and readers.
It backed Donald Trump ...the Nailer of NAFTA... 's threat to use troops against anti-racism protesters.
The newspaper had initially stood by the publication but then said the article "did not meet" its standards.
The change in position came after an outcry from both the public and staff over the piece, published on the newspaper's website last Wednesday. Some journalists did not come into work on Thursday in protest.
Mr Bennet, who has been the opinion editor since 2016, later admitted that he had not read the piece before its publication. The Arkansas senator's article called for "an overwhelming show of force" against groups he described as "rioters".
Its publication happened as hundreds of thousands of people have been marching across the US in recent weeks against racism and police brutality.
The demonstrations were sparked by the death of African-American George Floyd in police custody last month. Video showed him pinned to the floor, with a white police officer kneeling on his neck for almost nine minutes.
[PROVIDENCEJOURNAL] A 27-year-old Fall River man has been arrested, accused of attacking an 82-year-old man who’d been holding a "Trump" sign at a Fall River rotary, according to the Fall River police.
The police say they were called Tuesday after an elderly man was "violently targeted for his political views and violently assaulted."
The 82-year-old man told the police he was standing in a grassy areas off North Main Street and Airport Road when a man stopped his car, got out, and walked toward him, screaming, "Give me the (expletive) sign!," the police said in a news release.
The man, later identified as Aidan Courtright, of 41 Rolling Green Drive, then ripped the sign out of the victim’s hands, tore it in half, and threw it on the ground, the police said.
Courtright then grabbed the victim by his shirt, knocking his hat off, and threw him to the ground, the police said. While the elderly man was on the ground, Courtright kicked him in his ribs and legs before driving away, the police said.
Two independent witnesses corroborated the victim’s account, according to the police.
The victim told the police that he believed that he was attacked because of his political beliefs and the "Trump" hat that he was wearing.
The victim, who had visible bruising on his lower back, was taken to Charlton Memorial Hospital for evaluation, according to the police.
The police contacted Courtright, who later turned himself in.
He was charged with civil-rights violation with injury, assault and battery on person over 60, vandalism of personal property, assault and battery with a dangerous weapon.
Courtright was arraigned Wednesday in District Court, where not guilty please were on his behalf, according to the Herald News in Fall River. He was ordered held without bail pending a dangerousness hearing.
The miscreant, according to Pacific Pundit, who claims he is Antifa, unfortunately without showing his work:
UPDATE: The Fall River District Court criminal clerk's office tells me Aidan Courtright appeared via video conference yesterday, and was released with conditions.

[ViceMagazine] In your view, what causes these upheavals?
Historically, the trouble has always come from people with power, and the number of those people who want the most power. There are too many political entrepreneurs who are all trying to get power, and they get frustrated, which is how revolutions start: when members of the elite try to overturn the political order to better suit themselves.

I know you're surprised too
[KSDK] A 24-year-old man has been charged in connection with the murder of a retired St. Louis police captain.
Retired St. Louis police captain David Dorn was found shot to death at a north St. Louis pawn shop after a night of unrest in the city.
Dorn was found on the sidewalk with a gunshot wound outside Lee’s Pawn and Jewelry on June 2.
St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner announced on Sunday that 24-year-old Stephan Cannon has been charged with first-degree murder, first-degree robbery, first-degree burglary and three counts of armed criminal action as well as being a felon in possession of a firearm.
According to charging documents, surveillance video showed a Pontiac G6 pulled up alongside the pawn shop and multiple people from the G6 entered the store.
Surveillance video showed Cannon exiting the store and walking towards the Pontiac G6 just before Dorn arrived. Once Dorn arrived, Cannon was seen approaching the corner of the store with a gun in his hand.
"It is apparent from the surveillance that at the time the shots were fired, Cannon was the only person standing at that corner," charging documents said. Multiple plumes of smoke were seen coming from the area where only Cannon was standing, according to charging documents.
"Once Dorn has been shot and falls to the ground, Cannon can be seen approaching the door to the pawn shop," charging documents said.
A television taken from the pawn shop was recovered at the residence where Cannon was arrested. According to charging documents, Cannon said he was inside the pawn shop that night and also said he cut his hair to change his appearance after he saw his photograph being distributed.
He's being held with no bond allowed.
A 27-year-old man was also charged in connection with stealing from the pawn shop. Jimmie Robinson was charged with one count of first-degree burglary, one county of armed criminal action and one count of stealing, according to the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department. He's being held with a bond of $30,000 cash-only.
So when do we organize and support PLM (Police Lives Matter)? How about some protests, with some rioting and looting in the Black Communities next weekend?
No because 99.9999% of police are good and follow the law and respect the rights of ALL OTHERS.

[TELEGRAPH.CO.UK] Elmer Fudd is still hunting wabbits, but now he hasn’t got a wifle.The Looney Tunes cartoons have been remade for a modern audience, and Fudd is no longer allowed to have a gun.
Warner Bros has commissioned a new animation series featuring the classic characters, including Bugs Bunny, which sticks close to the spirit of the originals.
But viewers may notice a difference when it comes Fudd - whose catchphrase was: "Shhh. Be vewy, vewy quiet. I’m hunting wabbits."
In response to US gun violence, the showrunners will not include firearms in Fudd’s arsenal. That is not to say that he has given up hunting Bugs Bunny, though - he just uses a scythe instead.
Sticks of dynamite, anvils on the head and booby traps will still feature in the series....

Philadelphia Inquirer top editor forced to resign after publishing piece with 'Buildings Matter' headline. Was with paper 20 years; led team to Pulitzer; doubled minority staff. Apologized for 'Buildings Matter, Too' headline. 'Deeply offensive.' https://t.co/eY0sOsgfiG
by Kevin Barrett [PRESSTV] Israel has stepped in to train American coppers because they're experts at creating an army of occupation to terrorize the local people.
So, I'd like to highlight some of the things that this USA Today article has left out just because I think it's interesting that there's a taboo against certain aspects of this story being told. I just mentioned the Israelis being at the forefront of training American police in terror tactics today. They trained many Twin Cities officers and may very well bear some of the responsibility for the death of George Floyd since one of the things that they taught them was the knee on the neck thing which actually the Israelis developed in Paleostine, in 2004 or five or so, and then they started teaching it to American officers and that's how it got into the United States, but we never talked about that in the mainstream media, or the universities, anybody who brings it up here in the United States gets shot down by the immensely powerful Jewish Zionist lobby.
Another taboo and a similar one is against talking about the fact that Jews, wealthy Jews not ordinary Jews, but the richest Jews were massively overrepresented in the slave trade, and the place to go to learn about this is the series published by the Nation of Islam, actually the NOI research group is what it's called, on the history of blacks and Jews. This is a terrific book. It uses the very best historical methodology. And, of course, one can debate the conclusions. But it's a very solid scholarly book and yet it's been banned from Amazon and no one's allowed to talk about this because extremely rich Jews, the same descendants, basically the today's version of the people who ran the slave trade control our media, and our banking system and have immense power, but we’d said that's why we can't talk about that.
And another thing that we can't talk about today is the fact that part of the reason that there is this occupying army kind of dynamic between white cops and African American neighborhoods is because, African Americans have a crime rate that's about seven times higher than all other ethnicities, and it's even when you adjust for income.
So there's a terrible breakdown of the family unit in black communities and that's actually been created by the very liberal progressive forces who are telling you this official discourse as published in USA today about the history of racism and mistreatment of black people. They mistreated the black people the worst of anybody because they have been waging a war on black religion and the black family ever since the 1950s and 1960s, they're trying to impose secularism on the black community which is a naturally religious community.
They've destroyed the black family today. Two-thirds of black children are born outside of wedlock. That's why the crime rate is seven times higher among blacks than among any other ethnicity in the United States, but you're not allowed to talk about that either. So, frankly, the solution to this would be to have the Nation of Islam and similar religious-based groups enforce family values and law enforcement in black communities and get the racist white officers the heck out of those communities until that happens I'm afraid this problem is probably going to just continue.

Well, chokehold is potentially deadly, taser is potentially deadly, I have heard anecdotes of rubber bullets and bean bags being deadly. There's no doubt a teargas triggered asthma attack can be deadly. In the end, it's like high speed chases. If you know who you are after, send the hunters. Don't say "I'm going to catch this guy even if I have to kill civilians to get him. Floyd was handcuffed and three cops watched two other cops fight to get him belted in a squad car. If all five participated, he would have been belted in the squad car. People at Chubb, State Farm et al. are asking "why didn't that happen," and rightly so.

Back in the 90s I saw a documentary on the Marines developing techniques for urban pacification. One of the things they had was a 'mud' they sprayed on someone that would then harden fast and leave them immobile. We need more of that sort of thing.
That or a slip on all-body bag like in Brazil so they can be sealed up and hung like a sack of meat until they get back to the station.

[LAIST] The head of the union representing Los Angeles coppers criticized the mayor in stark terms today over his proposed budget cuts, and for what appeared to be an about-face from praising officers' actions in his pressers to calling them "killers" yesterday at a primarily African American church.
Speaking at the First AME Church in L.A. yesterday, Mayor Eric Garcetti defended $250 million in proposed budget cuts, from multiple departments including LAPD, by saying "either we say we are going to be, who we want to be, or we're going to continue being the killers that we are."
Jamie McBride, the director of the Los Angeles Police Protective League, responded in a presser live-streamed via Facebook, where he had this to say:
"We are honestly concerned about his [Garcetti's] mental health, and I think that he should seek some help, and maybe have someone to talk to, a counselor or something, and reflect on some of his decisions, reflect on his ability to lead the city and keep the citizens safe."
McBride said the cuts will result in slower 911 response times and generally make the community less safe.

Policing is going to happen, since even uber-libs would be uncomfortable with thugs wandering around their celebrity mansions. The options are:
1- Publicly funded LEO's.
2- Privately funded security guards.
3- Heavily armed citizens of all shapes and sizes.
Which of those three groups is most likely to defer to liberal concerns?

The measure of our "hero policeman" has been taken, and we know they'll take the knee.
When under direct orders to do so and under the captain’s eye, charger dear. That doesn’t speak to what’s in their hearts when they are off the clock or out patrolling, but rather shows that the senior officers are doing their best while being actively undermined by their political masters.
Do remember that some Rantburgers are or have been police of one sort or another (not to mention just about every other job and category of humanity). Painting in absolutes risks bumping into that reality. and I will not tolerate flame wars when we need to support each other against the real evils that beat on our gates.
#21
Charger, also remember a large number of folks on this site are well versed in history and when you compare kneeling under orders to the holocaust even in jest you lose all credibility.
People who have a responsibility to enforce order are selectively applying the power to do so upon those who have been designated "bad", and have been literally kneeling to those who have been designated "good".
And the "good" ones have been doing way more damage than the "bad" ones.
And the "bad" ones contribute way more to paying the salary and benefits of law enforcement than the "good" ones.
This is in direct contradiction of their oath to enforce the law equally.
Going by tw's comment, this unequal application of law enforcement is being done according to orders from their superiors.
They could choose not to obey those orders.
They could resign.
They don't.
Which is fine.
It is after all, their choice.
And I am free to point out what that reminds me of.

Or on the subway in the name of revolution? Maybe you'll get a contributors thanks in the announcement they provide to the media taking credit for the bombing.
