50th anniversary of Kent State today - I like these riot police much better - and the crowd & commenters much worse.

Here we go, I came across this one because someone I follow retweeted it with the comment "I had no idea comedy still existed on this platform"

Police in the U.S. need to realize they stand at the precipice of losing the trust, support, and protection of millions of American patriots.

They must reverse course and refuse unlawful orders, or risk being declared domestic enemies of the Constitution. @StewartRhodesOK https://t.co/ir9R9fdGYl

More likely there were relatively few ways to enforce them in the new. Like the Wild Wild West - you *are* the authorities, and no one within 300 miles to say you're not. With each fiefdom in the colonies as land grants and largely an old fashioned writ of royalty, they were all Barons and Dukes and Counts. Once they told the King to piss off, it went to their heads.

Yeah, goes all the way back to before the Boston Tea Party. Is why most of the people that were here before that came here: didn't like being told what to do in the old country.

The national motto is "Don't Tell me what to do." That couldn't cause problems, could it?

The world definitely has not changed

Edit to add:

Wisconsin voters were made to risk their lives

The Senate came back during a pandemic to vote for Conservative judges

Republicans block funding that would go to those most in need.

Complicating the situation. April 15:

NYPD has hundreds more coronavirus cases than previously reported @ NYPost.com

The number of NYPD members who have contracted the coronavirus has actually topped 4,000 — far more than what has been publicized, The Post has learned.

A total of 4,080 members of the NYPD — 3,350 uniformed officers and 730 civilian employees — have tested positive for the pandemic COVID-19 since the outbreak hit New York City, police sources said.

That number is nearly 1,300 more than the NYPD reported Tuesday in its daily coronavirus update, where it said 2,232 officers and 568 employees were diagnosed with the virus.

That’s because the NYPD was only providing to the press the number of members who had contracted the virus and were still out sick, sources said.

Once they returned to the job, they were taken off the count.

It was unclear when the total number of NYPD cases, which was widely reported, became inaccurate — but it became clear on Monday when the number of total cases dropped by 10.

So far, 25 members of the NYPD have died from coronavirus complications. Five of them were uniformed members and the other 20 were civilian employees.

The NYPD did not immediately respond for comment.

And hey, I just paid my NYC

In reply to As long as we are talking pie

And hey, I just paid my NYC property tax bill the other day. Still haven't seen an answer from NYC about why my homestead credit disappeared from the bill. Because: NYC bureaucrats: not essential workers! Nobody at work (they never answered the phone anyways.)

.And now you're telling me I am supposed to get a free face mask! I paid, where's my free face mask?!!!

How do you think free face masks get paid for, rmrd? Where are they going to come from? Do you think they fall from the sky? Sure wish they had been falling out of the sky at Mt. Sinai hospital a couple weeks ago.

Oh did I mention that NYPD are essential workers and therefore a lot of them have gotten it and been out sick?

Do you get this context: crisis, bankrupt city, many people dying?

You really don't see how your world has changed, do you? Just seeing everything through the same old, same old single frame: color of skin.

Edit to add: Do you realize that many NYPD don't have white skin?
