This is so well written, John. All of us old timers know what works and what doesn't and the pathetic liberal policies only bring turmoil and damage to society. Criminals should not be coddled - send them to work camps, plant food or they don't eat. They need to respect how the conscientious folks manage! Great article.

In order to prepare us for accepting an alternative system they need to make crime pay and violence surge so we say this isn't working. Let's take surveillance and digital chipping. Those prosecutors some might say are traitors to their country. One criminal in Toronto who stabbed a Subway rider had been released after 16 violent crimes in his own recognizance ie promise. What. This is across the woke world. God bless you and your readers.

I’ve coached kids who went into law enforcement from the local sheriff’s department, city police, state highway patrol, even had one kid in the Clinton White House with the Secret Service. I back the blue. At some point however, is it improper to ask why should I back the blue when they don’t back us?

Just saying.

If the police enforce social justice hate speech investigations but ignore violent crime, they must indeed be defunded, as worse than irrelevant.

Brilliantly written and salient article Mr. Klar.

Reminds me of something my father said to me as I was growing up. I thought, at the time, he was ridiculous. He said:

" I give you an inch and you take a mile!"

Now in my 60's, I have an entirely different understanding and appreciation for the sentiment. And it is too truthful not to resurrect this phrase. Sadly, we are reaping what we've sown.

My experience with policing in Vermont ....... why bother calling. The state troopers I have dealt with over home break ins are arrogant . Give me a springfield ma cop any day We really have no policing outside of the few urban areas

On a related note, disappointed to see RFKJr support reparations (for people of color). So, do we use the 1 drop rule? /s
