Protect the Blue!

"If the mutts and misfits ever tried to pull their kind of crap up in this neck of the woods - well, let's just say it would not end well for them."   

You might wonder why 600 officers in the NYPD have put in for retirement this year. Or, why a couple hundred in the MPD are filing claims of PTSD, resulting from the George Floyd mayhem and riots. I think it is the same in many big blue cities right now. It is one thing, to not have the backing of the Mayor and city leaders, it is quite another to allow our men and women in blue to become the targets and punching bags for the mutts and misfits.

A couple of snippets of what has happened as of late. In Chicago, a mob of traitors and enemies of the state, decided to topple a statue of Columbus. The police were there, and formed a barricade around the statue to protect it. The crowd, who was well funded and organized, started throwing frozen bottles of water, feces, rocks, and firecrackers at the officers. Many in the crowd had umbrellas opened up, so the identities of the perps could be concealed. Many officers were injured. One got hit in the eye with something, and may have permanent eye damage.

In Portland, where rioting (with the blessings and permission of the Mayor), continues night after night, the police do what they can to keep the lid on. But the mutts and misfits have figured out a new weapon to use against the police. Lasers. They are purposely aiming lasers at the eyes of the police. So far this month, three officers have sustained eye damage from the lasers. Some might have permanent eye damage.

This is like a one act play from the Theater of the Absurd. Mayors and city leaders, doing what they can to neuter and defund THEIR police forces. Citizens, unable to get prompt responses on frantic 911 calls, as the police are stretched thin, as well as being under constant attack. These days, many cops in these big blue cities, get up in the morning and do some very deep soul searching. This chosen profession, which they trained hard to obtain, has changed. This profession, which they went into not to get rich, but rather to protect and serve, has turned into a nightmare.

Some learned person on one of the cable shows recently, put the blame for this social entropy squarely on the shoulders of the Mayors. "They should all be recalled!", he said. Yes they should. If they are that stupid, clueless or cunning, that they would allow unfettered looting and burning of their cities, they deserve no quarter. I would not only recall them, but also put them on trial as an accomplice those who caused the damage. 

Just a final note to those misguided nitwits who think a world without cops would be a utopia. Take a look around. Look at just about any large, blue city right now. They look like a dystopian version of a warped reality. This is just a sneak peek on how things will look in a world without cops.

By the way, the vast majority of us still love our cops. We believe they are like Ivory Soap - 99% pure. The 1% which is not pure, is usually taken care of by the system. Where I live, our Sheriff's Deputies fit the bill nicely. They do a great job of protecting and serving this community. And - we always have their sixes. If the mutts and misfits ever tried to pull their kind of crap up in this neck of the woods - well, let's just say it would not end well for them.
