I’ve had enough of people surrendering to the Democrat mob.
Once again, just like COVID, these riots and protests are about power and control.
There is nothing to be gained by forcing people to kneel, bow down, or lay in the dirt for your cause.
All it does is humiliate, belittle, and weaken faith and trust in our leaders and institutions.
In 2019 10 unarmed black men were killed by police officers.
Compare that to over 7 days in 2020, 9 black folks were killed by the Democrat mob.
That same year, 89 polices officers were shot and killed.
My goodness, over the past 48 hours 23 people in Chicago were shot dead, where’s the outrage?
There is no outrage because those deaths are not “political” so they don’t matter.
Do I think police officers need retraining? Yes. I don’t care what anybody did or said, it is not okay to kneel on someone’s neck for over 5 minutes. This is absurd and can’t happen.
And for me personally, watching the police overreach during the COVID situation made me realize that cops need to behave more like community ambassadors and less like community tyrants or “order takers.” I feel like there’s a lack of critical thinking and interpersonal skills at work within some of our police forces and they need both of those skills in order to be successful.
But me kneeling, or laying face-down in the dirt will not do a damn thing to change that.

All it will do is make some people feel more powerful by watching me sheepishly submit.
That will never happen.
I’d rather discuss facts and talk about tangible ways to improve the situation – things that actually matter – not these over-emotional stunts designed to embarrass and belittle.
And speaking of “stunts,” the top cop in Webster, Massachusetts disgraced himself beyond repair when he surrendered to the mob and lay face-first on the filthy sidewalk.
The crowd chanted “Thank you Police Chief” and then at the end you can hear someone say “That’s not enough…”
No, it’s never enough for the mob…

One thing people have to remember is that you can never please the mob. Sure, you can hold the mob off for a little while with silly kneeling and face-planting stunts, but the mob has no empathy. It has no heart and soul, it only seeks to destroy and crush, and sooner or later the weak will be devoured by the very mob they so desperately try and please.
