Hating the Thin Blue Line That Saves Them

Hating the Thin Blue Line That Saves Them

When so-called ‘liberals’, most of them very wealthy and very, very white, babble about “defunding” and abolishing the police, it’s tempting to let them go right ahead. Let’s go all Escape from New York on their asses. Build a big wall around Democrat cities like Minneapolis and Los

Here’s a Radical Idea, BLM: Stop Shooting Each Other

As I wrote recently, the cost of widespread innumeracy is deadly. When people are so ignorant of basic statistical reasoning that their worldview is at 180° to reality, people get hurt. David Dorn and many others were killed in riots sparked by complete and utter lies. The astounding denialism of

Leftist Utopia Goes Exactly as Expected

I recently wrote, with regard to the “Defund the Police” mania sweeping the American left: go ahead. Do it. “Let’s go all Escape from New York on their asses. Build a big wall around Democrat cities…It will be the ultimate test of leftist utopia.” Well, guess what? It’

Okay, I’ll Bite, Minneapolis Will Disband Its Police, Then What?

Minneapolis has been brewing this storm-in-a-teacup story of racist police long before George Floyd was murdered. Nine of the eleven councillors were primed and ready to outvote Minneapolis’s mayor, Jacob Frey, who would not commit to abolishing the police at a demonstration last Saturday where protesters shouted, “Go home,

Modern Policing II

Yesterday I wrote in The BFD about the impossibility of policing the multicultural chasm opened up by the Black Lives Matter movement. It was subsequently announced that the Minneapolis City Council intends to disband the Minneapolis Police Department altogether, and hand policing over to ‘community groups’. Nine of the 13
