Colorado ping.
People have to gain the mind set that when an official stands with Antifa they become Antifa and need to be treated as such
Exactly. The cops follow the orders of politicians, and the politicians are largely on the same side as antifa. Staying away from these things is still a valid strategy ... for now. It’s when they come to you that is tricky.
Bye, bye Chief.
I’m old enough to remember Dan’s Bake Sale in Ft. Collins back in Rush Limbaugh’s heyday.
Productive conversation? Ha! Chief is a funny guy in need of a healthy dose of reality.
Thinking this encounter was very productive.
Go talk to them yourself Chief . . . before you bend the knee that is . . . and after they spit on you and tell you they are going to defund you.
I watched the video. There was some taunting from the pro-police folks, but the Antifa a-holes were the ones who brought weapons and committed the violence. I guess it is okay in the police eyes if the lefties taunt and antagonize our side can't do the same? The cops are acting like complete asshats.
So which side was that Chief?
No, they’re acting like they are following orders, and they are, they are coming from their democrat bosses. They have houses, jobs, and families they don’t want to lose. It seems toppling a nation is quite easy after all ...
Looks more like Celebrities Without Makeup starring Woody Harrelson, Alyssa Milano and Cher.
It's because cops in key cities are literally hiding that citizens (e.g., Fort Collins) are frustrated to the point of vigilantism.
Me too.
Want to bet?
When push comes to shove we used to be confident that the cops and military would fight on our side. Not any more. Now the cops look for excuses to arrest their supporters and excuses NOT to arrest their enemies. The military is not far behind.
This police chief obviously sides with the left. Scumbag!!!
my bet is that all those who were arrested were among those supporting the police, not the Antifa scum.
I wouldn’t touch her with your hand.
“No, they’re acting like they are following orders, and they are, they are coming from their democrat bosses. They have houses, jobs, and families they don’t want to lose. It seems toppling a nation is quite easy after all ...”
Yep, the old “I was just following orders” defense. Ugh.
It was a lot better in the 70’s, but a city of 170K with a university having 33K students - you don’t need a PhD to figure out where the power base is and who calls the shots.
The front range of CO is blue. Go 50 miles north to Cheyenne and the outcome would be very different.
Typical thinking in the Socialist State of Colorado.
