Take this article on one of my favorite sites. It states that, in regards to NYPD: “In addition to its ~$10 billion (with a “B”) annual budget, the city (via the billfolds of residents) hands out more than $250 million a year in lawsuit settlements.”
That means a Liberal city has a serious problem with bad police. What do you think the “bad police” stats are in Conservative cities? Perhaps this problem can be traced back to conservative judges who support the police in unsupportable situations, as I mentioned in a previous post, and the fact that Trump Judges pose an existential threat to our nation; nonetheless, many other judges – both “liberal” & “conservative” – have coddled police with a concept the SCOTUS invented out of thin air in 1967 called “qualified immunity”.
With that fact in mind, We really need to start teaching real history in high school again and forgo this nonsense of teaching towards standardized tests. (It’s a simple fact that it’s a major part of making our nation stupid.) We’ve also become a nation a busybodies all up in everyone else’s business. Maybe because most of us are too stupid to read an adult book?
Without real history being taught to our teens, they become adults who don’t know that ALL of their CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS basically came in to existence during the Warren Court. How many of you know that Warren’s SCOTUS gave us the right to remain silent when arrested? Or that his Court gave you the right to an Attorney and as such one will be appointed to you if you cannot afford one? Or that this Court gave us the “exclusionary rule” and that subsequent courts have been trying to take it away?
All this proves that post Warren, all SCOTUS have steadily tried to remove the rights secured during his tenure. And that’s why America has a big problem, we cannot be the land of the free without the Warren Court’s decisions. Attacking them is the same as attacking out nation as we know it. I think Dobbs was just the beginning of our possible end. Dobbs tells women they are second class citizens, which is an obvious offense to our previous American ideals.
