I didn’t hear the whistle. If he did, he must be a dog.

Not just any old “wrong term,” either. The worst of all sins is using a “dog whistle” term. Apparently only we can hear that dog whistle, but it sure sounded like gun shot reports fired by black thugs.

Watch episodes of “The Untouchables”.

There are plenty of ‘white’ crooks, but they tend to avoid violence nowadays.

Why would this man assume a ‘thug’ is black?

There is another term, but they don't like that one. either. Unless, of course they use it.

Thugs can be of all races and sexes. There is nothing racist or sexist about that.

Tiffany Henyard, who is mayor of Dolton IL, is an example.

I dunno...I watched Atlanta DA Fani Willis testify in court the other day and she was civilized, reasonable, courteous. Practically a black female version of William Buckley.

I suspect the Portland thugs were mostly white.

When the demo-commies whip out their ‘raycist’ flag, the correct response is, “Tough”.

The gov should now call the mayor a “thug coddler” or “thug enabler”

Somehow, I don’t think considering them to be kind, respectful law-abiding Americans quite fits the description of what they did.

“Thugs”, it is.

Regardless of race, color or country of origin…

He then railed on those who live outside the city for making suggestions on how to solve crime in the town.

But he has no problems telling the rest of the country what we need to do to fix his problems. And, no, gun control won't fix it.

Kansas city killers could be called “dignified gentlemen” but that would be weirder..

Dog whistle?

Isn’t that the same as calling the thugs dogs?

Mayor needs to check his wokeiness.

They weren’t Thugs yet, they were just young black boys practicing to be young black men.
