I knew that when I was a child and saw JFK done away with (in his VP's home-state) under very fishy circumstances. I saw the Slippery Slope from the very top, and watched my country degrade from a more family-oriented majority-Christian society to this lawless race-baiting Identity Politics disaster we currently endure. All along the way, I tried to point out the folly of pandering to the mentally-ill and worst-behaved people in our society, rewarding their failures and misbehavior with Free Stuff and coddling. I've had people screeching "racist!!! reeeee" at me for 50+ years for the "problematic?" issue of having common sense and daring to point out obviously destructive policies designed to make matters even worse on purpose. I've watched my own government do terrible things to our citizens financially and socially, getting rich themselves in the process. This Long March Through The Institutions has been exhausting, because apparently few people were able to see it for what it is (and as I say, tend to kneejerk-off to "racist!!! reee" if anyone dares interfere with the "progress" of the Leftist Agenda.)
>Fun fact: I was born around 1960 so I'm actually a "Boomer" although unless you are Ted Nugent or Barron Trump, I promise and can fully guarantee I am Over 9000!!!11!!11! times as cool as you are, and have the resume and tax returns to prove it. (I'm 60ish but I look/talk/act like RazorFist.)
>Moar Fun Facts: This "Boomer" bullshit is just more condescending anti-white-male-adult Leftist claptrap, anyone born between 1946 – 1964 is a "Baby Boomer." If one looks up from the cellphone for a minute, it is obvious that there is a huge range of mindsets and ideologies across that age group. Also, the "Baby Boomer" generation contains serious Patriots (like me) who have been struggling against SJW prototypes for decades- as well as those now-60-something SJW prototypes. (You could call us "adults" but that's not so hashtag-friendly.)
tl;dr Ted Nugent and Bill Gates are both Baby Boomers (and believe it or not, Ted is older yet looks younger than Gates due to proper diet/clean living/avoiding Satanism and genocide.) Some of the most-revered Icons Of The Left were born between 1946 – 1964 and thus... "Boomers." Bruce Springsteen is a "Boomer." Rosie O'Donnell is a "Boomer." Madonna is a "Boomer." (Had President Trump been born one year earlier, he would not be a "Boomer." He is a Year One Baby Boomer, born Flag Day June 14 1946.)
Oh yes, the Chicago murder rate has been slightly off due to the cold weather the last couple of years but they do try to make up for lost time when things thaw out. (As the true statistical chart-toppers in mass shootings, the joggers can't "achieve" their normal totals due to the lack of innocent bystanders/collateral damage from firing wild high-capacity clip-dumps with no training.)
As always, the shot-callers of the DNC have deliberately timed this perfectly to cause the most property damage and social unrest. If the verdict/"go" signal comes down in April (as I have read elsewhere,) the weather should be pleasant with very minor chance of a cold snap, possibly even summery. That is the weather that brings people out in their skimpiest clothes to show off their tattoos, with all the chest-thumping/turf wars/vyings for affection that accompany such proceedings. In the process, joggers will feel the need to earn street-cred and the shooting ritual begins anew, with the unthinkable combination of low-IQ/no marksmanship training inevitably resulting in bystanders being shot by stray bullets.
Normally, the predictable rioting over-reaction butthurt that happens at almost every phase of the kangaroo-court following an officer-involved shooting of a violent felon/arrest-resistor/cop-attacker is an annoyance, something I see on the independent news and give thanks that it doesn't happen near me. If a bunch of illiterate thugs want to burn their own neighborhood, screw 'em. Joggers gonna Jog. It's what they do.
What bothers me is the McCloskey family incident and similar cases where law-abiding citizens are forced to defend their home from angry mobs of unreasonable low-IQ hoodrats threatening to over-run their home by force. The commie-socialist-pushing Baizuo SJWs have indoctrinated less-industrious POCs with the bizarre notion that "property is a social construct" and it is their right to storm and claim the homes of "wipipo" in the same way they "culturally appropriate" Nikes and TVs. Obviously none of those dickheads have any idea how any of this works: you can't just show up with a screeching mob of pyromaniacs and demand someone abandon/gift their house and contents to you, there is a ton of paperwork involved in a real-estate transaction (not that they care, that's just an obstacle in the way of the Free Stuff.)
>tl;dr The joggers think the Tolerant Left™ has granted them the best idea since "reparations," with their new "winning strategy" of looting/burning affluent neighborhoods/business districts instead of repeatedly looting/burning their own neighborhood again. They (and other criminals) think that just because they know how GPS works, this entitles them to full access of the homes/contents/belongings of normal working-class citizens who have paid mortgage loans for decades. They are very wrong, any criminal that thinks GPS is the key to my house will put me in the very tense situation of trying to explain to police why there is a dead guy on my porch with a cactus sticking out of his ass.
This is just the jury selection/intimidation process, isn't it?
Wait until the trial gets going, and the verdict comes out (their estimate for a verdict is April, if the article I saw on that was accurate.) They are already battening down the hatches and putting a big fence around the courthouse, with the trial not even in session yet. I don't predict the rioters to have that much patience, as hyped-up as they are they could be triggered by any tiny micro-aggression.
The really fierce rioting (probably in most major cities nationwide) will come when the verdict is announced, regardless of the outcome. It isn't really about St. George The Non-Compliant, it's about looting the shoe stores and stealing TVs/spinny-rims/hair extinctions. We are at a very dangerous point in our society where riots/violent flash-mobs can be summoned quickly via social-media/texting (riots started quickly after the Jacob Blake shooting, before the story had time to make the early-evening news.)

True, because the St George video is not unusual at the beginning, in that the police are being calm/respectful, and Mr. Floyd was babbling and more agitated by the minute. I see this in a lot of these videos, the cops are being friendly and the perp/pullover is antagonistic/uncooperative from the start.
Incredible, this guy is going hard!
I very much appreciate any of these people sincerely putting in the work going after the election fraud <3 <3 <3
The really crazy part: they will riot either way, and the jurors will be threatened either way. Maybe this is the "aware of this on both levels" Kumala referred to when encouraging continued rioting (on Colbert's CBS show before the election.)
We are in a dire situation that I never expected to see: how did we get from "we don't negotiate with terrorists" to the Supreme Court being intimidated into refusing to hear election-fraud cases- supposedly over issues of rioting? This has been going on since the Rodney King/OJ Simpson cases with worse and worse results by the year, juries and courts and police being intimidated out of doing the right thing by the threat of rioting.
Several years ago, a friend of mine told me after serving jury duty/delivering the verdict, they had the jurors exit the hallway where the convict's family was bemoaning the conviction of their good boy (who dindunuffin and was on his way to church to study for his GED) having fatally shot someone in public in broad daylight in a bustling hood. I assumed the courthouse would separate/protect the jurors from the spectators/angry horde of joggers ready to burn stuff, apparently not so much.

I love this, Melania inspiring ladies to dress and look their best and GEOTUS bringing business suits back (I have seen lots of my nephews and other small kids dressing up more in recent years<3 <3 <3)
I posted earlier today about my small-town where I grew up. It's a very calm peaceful place, for the most part untouched by the "progress" of the Leftist Agenda. There is so little crime they really don't even need police.
There are also very few joggers and migrants. Any black or hispanic people there are assimilated honest hard-working English-speakers. In an environment where the default is honesty and generosity, anyone with bad intentions would stand out. That small-town is a rare place with little conflict, and a nonexistent divorce rate. Most importantly: the people are mostly family-oriented churchgoers, so there is not much problem with unsupervised youth in search of mischief.

I haven't been to Knoxville in many years but it was a nice place at the time from what I saw. : )
What I am seeing in the Flyover States over the last few years: many larger cities/towns are rapidly expanding toward the suburbs, and the formerly-remote rural areas are starting to look like the suburbs. Of course this pushes the loners further out into the woods. It's an obvious and understandable effect of population growth (artificially enhanced with imported DNC Replacement Voters/"New Americans," mostly concentrated in the Big Cities.)
I live near a mid-sized city, or more accurately at a safe distance. I prefer to live in a quiet rural area with enough space to maximize my 1st & 2nd Amendment hobbies and not bother anyone/vice versa. My neighbors are mutually friendly/helpful, otherwise we keep to ourselves and all is peaceful for miles. It is a relatively short drive to any of several mega-cities via the nearby large city (with good time due to high speed limits/interstate highways.) My situation is best of both, I'm fairly remote but I can get to town easily if I need provisions or even catch a flight within a quick drive.
Another place I haven't seen in recent years is Ashland City, that is about 30 minutes from Nashville as I recall. A friend of mine lived out there in the sticks, it seemed very woodsy but was surprisingy close to a booming big-city. I'm sure there are many nice places like that one surrounding the big cities, it's just a matter of finding the right spot. <3 <3 <3

I don't know how reliable the boards are (and I wouldn't recommend commie Reddit otherwise but) Reddit should have a sub labeled r/knoxville that you could lurk/browse : )
And there's all manner of local info at this link: https://knoxville.craigslist.org/
LOL oops
That was my pre-school life, no joke that's the kind of environment I grew up in (and that small-town has grown/changed somewhat, but it is much closer today to my memories of the 1960s than the nearby larger town where I live presently.) My town is unrecognizable now, fallen to Leftist Creep and all the joys that accompany: blatantly corrupt local government/police, sudden-onset migrant apocalypse, insane crime rate over the last 10 years, jogger-coddling, Drag Queen Story Hour, etc. They still have to ship in the transvestites but hey, gotta do what they gotta do.
But when I visit that place, it's like time travel. People still drive cars/trucks from the 1940s/50s not because they are "street rodders" but because they like those old cars and they still work. You see a near-equal mixture of newer cars/trucks along with those old classic cars. There is no WalMart, and no chain stores apart from the gas stations. The narcissism and sloth and tasteless fashion-trends so prevalent in the Post-MTV Internet Era is completely absent, visiting there is like going back to a rural setting of the 1960s (and not just visually.)
That small-town is a perfect example of Still-Great America, very much unspoiled by the "progress" of the Leftist Agenda. (My current town being a sad example of what happens when you fail to perform proper bud-nipping.) Of course at some point in the near-future, the local Leftist couch-potato-busy-bodies will run across something on Facebook written about my old town, and they will besiege it demanding the installation of Leftism/gentrification/imported "diversity" and the removal of any signs of tradition. But so far, those folks are living the way they always have and watching from a distance as the surrounding larger towns fail due to the consequences of Leftist Creep.
Oh noes LOL
We're gonna need a DNA test on that. At least Bruce Gender wasn't trying to fool anyone.
Post-Modernism. Good is bad, bad is good, tradition is oppressive, etc etc.
The point of modern "art"/architecture is to make "the work" look as bad as possible by traditional standards, which forces onlookers to jump through various hoops of mental-gymnastics to appear "cultured enough to understand the artiste's motivations" etc. It actually looks like hammered dogshit but Limousine Liberals will commit vulgar displays of flounce to virtue-signal about its supposed "artistic merit." Moar fun with that here. (PJW Red Pill video, 8mins)
>The savage video I linked deals with modern "art" rather than the jogger-graffiti passed off as "art" that has popped up in recent years glorifying/canonizing various deceased failed arrest-resistors/police-attackers.

LOL!!! The Hoofington Post is cruel and psychotic and ridiculous, and so is their fleet of "diversity" hires. What do they expect from that quagmire?
Screw 'em, you're doing great. NO BRAKES !!!
In my experience, you're not wrong. My generally-positive tone on The Police is based on the very small percentage who are good decent people who want to help society. It's difficult to be positive about a group that is more often than not a bunch of narcissistic power-tripping bullies who tend to avoid the high-crime zones for easier more-lucrative prey among "wipipo" who are less likely to resist arrest/shoot at them (who have nicer cars/property to seize and the means to pay fines.)
I can't blame them really, they do deal with the worst elements of society: lots of drunk/drugged unreasonable people who are often so deep into the "blackout" state they won't remember the confrontation. I do appreciate their efforts, obviously I don't want to live in a country without Police because... look how bad things are already in the medium-to-big cities, and that's with Police trying to keep things under control.
The "defund the police" narrative can only work in an environment of the "honor system." In the Mayberry-like Flyover State small-town where I grew up, people still leave their doors unlocked with a shotgun displayed over the fireplace. I rarely see big watchdogs or security fences there, none of the usual signs of battening down the hatches one often sees when crime is a frequent issue. They could "defund the police" with little effect- because they have no crime to speak of. (Obviously there are other factors of absence at play, along with being a near-100% Christian blue-collar/family-oriented populace my old small-town also has none of the jogger/gangsta/loud sub-woofer/random gunfire/homeless issue that plagues bigger towns.)
tl;dr I Back The Blue in most cases, because they are essential to our peaceful society (but reserve the right to call out wrongdoings if/when they arise.) Checks and balances are necessary, because their power can be easily abused (although these days things tend to be slanted way too far in the favor of criminals which is obviously not a good thing.) To be clear, I am as a rule quite pro-Police/Law & Order and have several friends and family who are LEOs and SWAT.
