After a summer of seemingly unending chaos in America’s cities, Kenosha just may have been the tipping point.
For three nights, the city burned in rioting after the officer-involved shooting of Jacob Blake, while Democratic governor Tony Evers refused to deploy a Wisconsin National Guard contingent large enough to quell the violence.
For three days, Evers issued inflammatory statement after inflammatory statement — even going so far as to say that a Kenosha police officer “mercilessly” shot Blake — and refused to either condemn the violence or urge calm. Laughably, the sternest warning he gave rioters was to remind them to “wear your mask and keep social distance as best you can.”

Rent a thug, BLM, Antifa. The money is coming from the same source to fund all these domestic terrorist groups. I want to know who is sending money to continue this violence. Corporations were stupid enough to give money to BLM, sports leagues are stupid enough to put social justice crap on their uniforms and fields, actor and actresses, media, and DEMOCRATS are encouraging these monsters to destroy the average person's life that we all worked so hard. Yes, I'm mad as h#ll, I want to know.....DOJ let us know now!!

The problem appears for the Dims and 0 that they don't know how to stop what they started. When you decide to have sex with a bear the bear tells you when it's over.

Errmmm, maybe not so much...Cincinnati has seen a rash of homicides and shootings so far this year, democrap mayor and I think most of city council...now they are 'addressing' the violence, probably with more youth outreach, basketball games, free this and free that and less bucks to the CPD (whom a nephew works for)...same old crap...they just refuse to go after the gang bangers and shooters....another recalcitrant Darwin contestant was killed last night. Refused to obey officers, pulled a gun and got wasted.the video shows him apparently discharging a weapon through the driver side window as a K9 heads his way..had a K9 years ago and if someone killed my partner, woe unto him.....one less to try, convict, and feed/house for the next whatever many years...

When one looks at the pictures of the damage done by the rioters and compares them to the pictures of the destruction done by the hurricane last week, they wolook about the same. Yet, the MSM claims that the rioters were peaceful and the hurricane violent. When are we going to get a law that says people can't cross state lines to destroy cities and towns in other states!

Kenosha was a wake up call for Democrat leaders.
Count on them to hit the snooze button over and over again.

A leftist neighbor seemed to think BLM is just "swell." He didn't seem to know they were being paid by George Soros to loot, burn, commit mayhem, and kill. I printed some intel to that effect, but haven't spoken to him since. So who knows?
So when you spot Biden-Heels Up front-yard signs, consider what you're dealing with. Nitwits who probably also swooned over Traitor Hussein and Crooked Clinton.

All politics is local. Kenosha matters only because Wisconsin matters in the upcoming elections. Elsewhere, that's not the case.

Kenosha is obviously important enough that they are getting taxpayer million$ to rebuild or do something with. They are probably just the first.

It was coming to a head. Ordinary Americans will not let this kind of destruction happen, police or no police.
It was clear that eventually ordinary citizens would put a stop to it. Only in gun-free, rights-free leftist "cowed and cowardly" Dem cities can this go on for any length of time. In more normal places, where people still think and act in freedom, and have gun rights, it was bound to end up this way. Entirely predictable.
That it went on as long as it did proves how dedicated to the idea of the police and the legal system solving these problems we, as a country, actually are. We are very loathe to take the law into our own hands. It took a young idealist......but it was inevitable. The mob WILL NOT rule.
