    It's only going to escalate. As bad people get more emboldened. It is time for good people to stand up. Trump 2024.

    Does every major city with rampant crime have a DEI Chief of Police, Mayor, and District Attorney?

    I doubt if any of those so-called officers could run half a block, and the chief doesn't inspire me, at all. Quota hires.
  • @adaroberts7267
    Police should have to pass a rigorous physical at least once a year and have to continually stay in training so they can handle themselves at any skill level. Not one of these officers looks like they could hold their own in even a cat fight. Very sad!
  • No word on where they obtained the firearm(s). Straw sale? Printed ghost gun? Illegal import?
