Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) and Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.) had issued statements calling out racial injustice in response to Wright’s death. "It wasn’t an accident. Policing in our country is inherently & intentionally racist. Daunte Wright was met with aggression & violence,” Tlaib wrote in a tweet Monday evening. "I am done with those who condone government-funded murder. No more policing, incarceration, and militarization. It can’t be reformed,” she continued, reiterating her position that the police, as currently trained, cannot protect their communities and must be defunded and replaced.” And I would imagine that since then those members have discussed law enforcement again. Do we know what they've said? Is it still "defund the police" or nothing?

July 2, 20214 yr It’s an opinion piece with factual info. stated by Obama and the Defund Police slogan. The leftwing brainiacs are definitely responsible for this one. Layup for right wing nuts. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.usatoday.com/amp/3850652001
July 2, 20214 yr The Dems were complete idiots from the start just by using the phrase "defund the police". It seems like they just like to sabotage themselves politically. If you mean "reform", then just use the word reform.

Layup for right wing nuts. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.usatoday.com/amp/3850652001 Agreed, great opinion piece. Read it twice and still cannot find where it says any lawmaker used the words "defund the police" or even insinuate it. It says: Obama criticized it (and got flack). AOC said, "Protests should be uncomfortable" (whatever tf that means - but it doesn't mean stop funding cops ffs), and Pressley talked about police abuse and the history of it. Now, if by "leftwing brainiacs", you are talking about ordinary citizens making signs that read "DEFUND POLICE", you have no f'n argument from me. They were morons. My rebuttal was simply in response to @greend's question that any "Democrats", ie: lawmakers, wanted to defund law enforcement. Which, btw, there were, and are none.

Ilhan Omar said it’s not a slogan it’s a policy. Others have endorsed it without saying it directly. The dems own this.

Omar's cookier than AOC. But I'll wait for the next proposed Bill out of Congress that stops or limits funding from Law Enforcement. .... Of course, that would be after the current one that wants to give them $350 Billion. Of course. If you see it before me, be sure to PM.

And again... the video I posted is of a FOX News commentator catching a Repub in a lie. Think about that. As long as they keep getting camera time they will continue to influence the voters and what they want. When they were given camera time they supported the defund the police bullsheet. Which in turn helped fuel the fire because morons see these dumb Fs on tv supporting them. Then the circle continues. Same goes for trump and Jan 6th, unless you don’t think he influenced that at all.
July 2, 20214 yr Yup, yup, I never disagreed with any of that. You are 100% right. I'm gonna drop it at this point, because I answered a question I thought was dictated by certain parameters and it wasn't the case apparently.
