  9. https://jonathantgilliam.com/epic-fail-pete-buttigiegs-town-hall-disaster/?fbclid=IwAR35uN3HhmVd-Vh3phZkEgP8Y9C3xTswyFZ2BEn6-hjp1T05i-ZMgnKoqTU South Bend, Indiana Mayor and Democratic Presidential candidate, Pete Buttigieg, attended a town hall on Sunday that devolved into total chaos – likely bad news for the mayor’s presidential campaign. The town hall went off the rails when Buttigieg got into the recent shooting of 54-year-old Eric Logan, a black man, by Sgt. Ryan O’Neill, a white police officer, in South Bend. Attendees shouted their concerns and their disappointment at city officials for not taking swifter action to address the strained relationship between the police department and the black community. Buttigieg noted the complex relationship between minorities and police extends beyond the incident that occurred on June 16. “There is a lot beneath the surface when it comes to trust and legitimacy around policing and race in our city,” the South Bend mayor said. Buttigieg told attendees that the city has made progress in regard to the promotion process, raising police discipline standards and increasing public data online. Buttigieg said that he will send a letter to the Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division to look into the city’s police department. However, Buttigieg also acknowledged he has failed to diversify the police department and ensure that body cameras are activated when officers encounter civilians. O’Neill’s body camera reportedly wasn’t activated during last Sunday’s incident. “As the mayor of the city, I want to acknowledge that those last two lines of effort, the effort to recruit more minority officers to the police department and the effort to introduce body cameras, have not succeeded,” he said. “And I accept responsibility for that.” In the question-and-answer portion of the town hall, one audience member told Buttigieg to reorganize his department by Friday of next week to “get the racists off the streets,” in reference to law enforcement officers. Buttigieg responded to shouts from the crowd, “I will say that if anyone who is on patrol is shown to be a racist, or to do something racist in a way that is substantiated, that is their last day on the street.” This thing literally turned into a worse case scenario for the Mayor. The SB native are expressly blaming him for the officer's actions that night. Kinda bad considering there was another shooting on Saturday night in SB where 1 died and 10 were injured.......The Mayor was actually in tears during one interview.......
  10. "Why do we have to explain the pain caused by the visual offense that we see in that building that is supposed to be an institution for learning?" asked one woman at a public meeting about the issue on Tuesday. Doesn't history count as learning? Moreover, how is a kid supposed to learn to "get over it" if they are over protected from every potential offense?
  11. https://pjmedia.com/trending/owens-on-reparations-how-about-the-democratic-party-pay-for-all-the-misery-it-brought-to-my-race/?fbclid=IwAR1sPCA2JoXUV6iCpRIs2uag6XNTq4TEwsD1ZvER-kIZ7NksWJ5_HexXiJI "Let's pay restitution. How about the Democratic Party pay for all the misery brought to my race and those, after we learn our history, who decide to stay there, they should pay also. They're complicit. And every white American, Republican or Democrat, that feels guilty because of their white skin, you should need to pony up also -- that way we can get past this reparation and recognize that this country has given us greatness," Burgess said. "Look at this panel. It doesn't matter how we think. It doesn't matter our color. We have become successful in this country like no other because of this great opportunity to live the American dream. Let's not steal that from our kids by telling them they can't do it," he added.
  12. Yes - This is a meme....BUT Danny Glover DID testify before the same House Committee as Mr. Hughes.....
