It would be easy, and understandable, after watching the rampant property and violent crime, and the rioting that has mangled the quality of life and Innervated, and literally gutted, so many American cities going back to 2015, that the left has no interest in law enforcement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The dim bulb mayor of Baltimore even described it openly, saying that government needs to give rioters \u201croom to destroy\u201c. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Perhaps it should come as no surprise that People on the left can get very creative indeed when it comes to enforcing the laws – provided the \u201coffenders\u201d are on the right.<\/p>
A friend of the blog sent me this bit of brow furrowing from the Canadian left, on the trucker protests, which appears to be a greater crisis than World War II – and has re-introduced the Canadian left to a fairly radical concept, noted in bold below:<\/p><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Police are the only ones who can defuse the convoy protest peacefully, said Candyce Kelshall, the president of the Canadian Association for Security and Intelligence Studies in Vancouver.<\/p>
\u201cProtest is legal. Breaking the law makes it illegal<\/strong>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
And, almost as if gift wrapped and sent to the Minneapolis police department, and the Hennepin and Ramsey county attorneys offices\u2026:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If police look impotent, that\u2019s the way they are perceived<\/strong>,\u201d said Kelshall. \u201cIt emboldens people.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Huh. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Why, it\u2019s almost as if the enforcement of laws depends on the \u201ccriminals\u201d you\u2019re talking about. <\/p>
<\/p>
I would bet a shiny new quarter that the mayor of Ottawa won\u2019t be abandoning any police stations to the truckers.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
