Democrats Vote Against Supporting Police

Posted on by

During the Black Lives Matter riots, Democrats demanded that police be defunded so that criminals could wreak havoc unimpeded. This did not play in Peoria, so they backed off — for the time being. Their sentiments remain unchanged, as a recent House vote confirms.

Via Fox News:

Just 29 House Democrats on Wednesday voted for a GOP-authored measure paying tribute to the “extraordinary sacrifice” law enforcement officers make and criticizing the defund the police movement for jeopardizing public safety.

Meanwhile, 173 Democrats voted with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., against the resolution, while every GOP lawmaker present supported it.

The measure was introduced by Zach Nunn (R-IA), who had expected unanimous support. Supporting the police rather than criminals has always been a political no-brainer — but no longer. Nowadays, even a token gesture in favor of law enforcement would enrage the Democrat base.

The vote came during National Police Week, which honors the service and sacrifice of fallen law enforcement officers across the country.

Democrats make it easy to tell the black hats from the white hats.

DEI Dunce Fired From Cincinnati Police Chief Post

Posted on by

It doesn’t happen often, but we have good news from moonbattery-addled Cincinnati. Via Fox News:

Cincinnati’s now-former police chief, once sued by subordinates for alleged discrimination against White male officers, has been fired.

A termination announcement says Teresa Theetge was “begged” to put more officers on the streets during a crime-riddled summer last year.

The crime has featured black mobs pummeling disfavored Caucasians in the streets, secure in the knowledge that they have the tacit if not explicit approval of the liberals in charge.

In May of last year, four White male officers filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against Theetge, who was the city’s first female police chief, saying that they were passed over for promotions and passed over for preferred assignments because of their race and/or sex.

If Theetge is replaced by a still more unqualified Woman of Color, at least there will be some poetic justice.

Looks like this stern message from Chief Theetge was ineffective:

Her lawyer Stephen Imm remains defiant. Via WLWT:

“We will get justice for Terri Theetge, and those responsible for this disgusting act will be held accountable.”

The “disgusting act” was throwing Theetge overboard.

Video Depicts DEI Applied to Law Enforcement

Posted on by

Maybe DEI can produce full employment in New York. Physical qualifications having been rejected, three NYPD officers are now required for even a failed attempt to arrest one of the savages running amok in the subway system. Presenting the Tremont Avenue station in the Bronx:

As Samantha Chang observes at the Western Journal,

The viral clip spotlights several disturbing themes underscoring the disastrous impact of left-wing social re-engineering agendas.

First, criminals no longer fear or respect law enforcement, which means there’s no deterrent to crime.

Second, many New York City officers are physically unfit to do their jobs. …

This is especially true of female cops, who’ve been hired en masse due to the Democrats’ DEI fetish, which has slashed standards amid leftist complaints that the fitness tests prevented women from being hired.

Liberals tried defunding the police, but public opinion forced them to retreat. Reducing the police to a laughingstock through DEI might achieve the same objective.

Historically Gay DC Police Union Chief Arrested for Child Sex Crimes

Posted on by

Even white guys can be remarkably historic. Matthew Mahl is not only the first noisily homosexual DC police union chairman, he is also the first noisily homosexual former DC police union chairman to be arrested for solicitation of sex from a minor and solicitation of child pornography.

The Post Millennial reports:

Charging documents allege that Mahl communicated for several weeks with someone he believed to be a 15-year-old boy on Reddit, sending sexually explicit messages and photos of himself. In reality, he was actually communicating with an undercover Harford County sheriff’s deputy.

Thanks to DEI, historic people do not need to be terribly bright to achieve positions of prominence.

Authorities say Mahl used his real name during the exchanges and identified himself as a DC police lieutenant. He allegedly sent a photo of himself in uniform and acknowledged the risk of losing his career if caught. At one point, he requested sexually explicit images and arranged to meet the individual after school.

That’s when they busted him.

Incidentally, the root word “mal” comes from the Latin “malus,” meaning bad or evil.

Hide the children; more historic firsts may follow.

Arrest Warrant for ICE Agent in Minnesota

Posted on by

The leftists running Minnesota continue to criminalize law enforcement. The railroading of Derek Chauvin was a milestone. Daily Caller reports on another; an ICE agent was charged yesterday with felony assault:

An on-duty agent, Gregory Donnell Morgan Jr., on Feb. 5 allegedly pulled an unmarked SUV alongside another vehicle and pointed a handgun at the driver and his passenger, [Hennepin County Attorney Mary] Moriarty said. …

Morgan is charged with two counts of second-degree assault, has a warrant out for his arrest, and could face up to 14 years in prison between the charges…

Moriarty referred to the victims as “community members” who were “not doing anything at the time.”

She did not mention whether the “community members” were in the country legally. She did mention that she regards the enforcement of federal law to be “occupation.”

Moriarty said that more charges may be expected soon, including in regard to the deaths of Renée Good and Alex Pretti, who were both killed while impeding ICE agents.

Both Good and Pretti were recorded not only impeding but physically attacking ICE agents.

The historicness Moriarty achieved by being the first noisily LGBTQ person in her position will be dwarfed if she manages to stage another Fort Sumter moment by arresting federal agents for enforcing the law.

Sending Social Worker on 911 Call Goes as You Would Expect

Posted on by

Liberals want local police defunded on the grounds that law enforcement is racist. They have called for cops to be replaced by social workers. Let’s see how that works out in real life.

Mass Daily News reports on the result of a 911 call in Boston last Saturday:

They called in a worker from Boston’s BEST program, a co-responder model where master’s-level mental health professionals ride alongside officers to de-escalate crisis calls.

The call was from a guy who reported an imaginary threat of people coming to kill him.

The clinician talked to the man through the door for the better part of an hour. Then he opened it and attacked, striking both the clinician and an officer with what Police Commissioner Michael Cox described as “some sort of sword.” Officers fired a Taser and their weapons. The man was rushed to a hospital and pronounced dead. Several other officers and two EMS workers were also hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries.

Fumed the Boston Police Patrolmen’s Association,

“The overzealous DA should take a bow now that cops are waiting to get stabbed before taking steps to protect themselves.”

Two weeks previously, DA Kevin Hayden sent officers to arrest their fellow cop Nicholas O’Malley at his home rather than at the police station, as if wanting it done in front of his wife and kids.

The charge was manslaughter — for shooting a carjacker who had rammed a police cruiser and had 47 prior charges. Hayden said it wasn’t self-defense. The message to every cop in the city was unmistakable: act, and we’ll come for you.

The moonbattery comes down from the top:

[Boston Mayor Michelle] Wu publicly thanked Hayden for the prosecution.

As for replacing police with social workers,

Her campaign platform called for diverting 911 mental health calls away from police…

You can have public safety, or you can have Democrat rule. You can’t have both.

Suburban Atlanta Police to Undergo LGBT Indoctrination

Posted on by

Because moonbattery is a totalitarian ideology, there is no escape from it anywhere. For example, in suburban Atlanta, police officers must undergo brainwashing in counterfactual LGBT ideology.

Via The Center Square:

In training costing taxpayers tens of thousands of dollars in work hours, DeKalb County Police officers will be told that biological sex isn’t fixed, but rather “assigned at birth.” They’ll hear that sex is actually on a spectrum – a controversial concept espoused by left-wing gender activists.

Officers will be instructed to use biologically incorrect pronouns in obeisance to the psychosexually deranged.

Officers will also be directed that if they encounter a transgender person, it’s a major no-no to ask their real name. They’ll be told male crime suspects should be given the option to have “female” checked when entering their information on an official police report.

The lunacy is part of the DeKalb County PD’s LGBTQIA+ Awareness & Sensitivity Training.

The department’s chief of staff told The Center Square by email that the course will be offered about eight times per month until all sworn personnel have taken it…

DeKalb County is infamous as the place where veteran police officer Glen Weaver was fired for politely asking a transvestite to stay out of the ladies’ room. But it isn’t alone in subjecting the police to LGBT indoctrination:

Among the major cities whose police departments already have it: Atlanta, Chicago, Los Angeles, Houston, New Orleans, New York, Philadelphia and Washington, D.C., according to online records and media reports. In California, all police departments must train officers and 911 dispatchers on sexual orientation and gender identity minority groups, as mandated by state law since 2018.

Objective reality has been canceled. It wasn’t inclusive.

Cops Face Grand Jury for Stopping Islamic Mass Murderer

Posted on by

Where moonbattery replaces justice, no good deed goes unpunished. A Muslim colonist from Senegal named Ndiaga Diagne shot random Americans in Austin early Sunday, evidently in support of the terrorist regime in Iran. He killed at least three and would have killed more if Austin police had not taken him out. Then the liberal system took over.

Via Legal Insurrection:

The three officers who stopped the Austin shooter must face a grand jury to determine if the state should bring charges against them. …

Apparently, Travis County DA José Garza follows instructions from the Wren Collective, a criminal justice reform group.

The group has pushed Garza to present all officers who use force to face a grand jury.

The leftist Wren Collective was started in 1987 to promote films from the USSR.

The donation link on the Wren Collective’s website leads to an account for the Social and Environmental Entrepreneurs (SEE), based in California. …

SEE has received funding from Alliance for Global Justice, which receives funds from the Open Society Foundations, Tides Foundation, and Arca Foundation.

As usual, the moonbat money trail leads to sinister Democratic Party bankroller George Soros.

Soros created and funded the Open Society Foundations.

“Think globally, act locally,” bark the moonbats. The damage they are inflicting throughout the country is largely unseen but immeasurable. Cops cannot even stop a mass shooting without risking retribution from powerful leftists.

No Assault Charge for Assaulting NYPD

Posted on by

On Monday, NYPD officers were chased down the street by a lawless mob that pelted them with snow packed with ice and rocks, sending two to the hospital. As was remarked at the time, the incident was unsurprising, in light of who was just elected Mayor of New York. The outcome has been equally unsurprising, considering that Manhattan’s DA is the aggressively pro-criminal Alvin Bragg, who was installed in office by sinister Democratic Party bankroller George Soros.

The New York Post reports:

Gusmane Coulibaly, 27, was originally charged with assault on a police officer, obstruction of governmental administration and disorderly conduct…

But the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office declined to pursue the cop assault charge during his arraignment Thursday evening.

As for the other charges, these were…

…downgraded to harassment and obstruction of governmental administration as a second-degree violation and misdemeanor, respectively, according to a criminal complaint.

The hooligan was set loose to commit further havoc, which might include robbing subway passengers. The other suspects remain at large.

Presenting what Mamdani, Bragg, and the rest of the moonbats flushing NYC down the toilet can be counted on to side with against law enforcement and law-abiding citizens:

Respect for Law Enforcement in Mamdani’s New York

Posted on by

Considering the NYPD officers who rushed into the World Trade Center to save innocent victims of Islam just before in collapsed, it would be hard to imagine a more profound insult to what they represent than to elect a pro-terrorist, pro-criminal Muslim as mayor. So this scene should come as no surprise:

A society that has no respect for law enforcement has no respect for law. It is not a society, but a dysfunctional mob.
