Carjacking is a dangerous proposition … just ask this man who got trampled by an angry driver, and it’s all on video.
The attempted carjacking went down last year but started trending this morning because the video was released for public use yesterday. In the video you see a black man trying to stop a car by standing in the middle of the road as he pulls out a gun.
The would-be carjacker receives instant karma as the driver of the car hits the gas and sent him flying down the street.
The moment of impact did some heavy damage to the man.

Many Senate Republicans oppose the partisan January 6 Commission which serves the Democrat’s agenda by deflecting from their unpopular policies.
“I don’t think there will be 10 votes on our side for it,” Sen. Mike Braun (R-IN) said of the legislation which passed the House with 35 Republican votes. “At this stage, I’d be surprised if you’re gonna get even a handful.”
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) will also oppose the commission in a blow to Democrats who need ten Republicans to pass the measure.
It seems like a crazy urban legend: In China, drivers who have injured pedestrians will sometimes then try to kill them. And yet not only is it true, but it’s also fairly common; security cameras have regularly captured drivers driving back and forth on top of victims to make sure that they are dead. The Chinese language even has an adage for the phenomenon: “It is better to hit to kill than to hit and injure.”
In contrast in our country, BLM regularly blocks roads and in most situations, the drivers are the ones that took the hit.

“I do believe … that most Republicans out there want to get back to a party that believes in ideas, the kind that Paul Ryan described.
The Miami-Dade Police Department is honoring the LGBTQ community with a rainbow-themed patrol vehicle. The vehicle—which is decorated with the colors of the Pride flag and the words “hope,” “love,” “equality,” “inclusion,” “kindness,” “peace,” and also the phrase “strength through unity”—will be used “to establish a more trusting relationship within our communities,” MDPD Sergeant Orlando Lopez said during the unveiling ceremony on Thursday in Doral. “What better way to assist in educating the public about Pride and in promoting engagement between law enforcement and the community we serve?,” Lopez asked, when introducing the “MDPD Pride Vehicle.”(Snip) An anti-hate symbol

In his controversial new book on the 2020 election, Battle For The Soul: Inside the Democrats' Campaigns to Defeat Donald Trump. Edward-Isaac Dovere repeats a canard that has become something of a staple of Democratic mythology. (snip) Obama, writes Dovere, "would never forgive [Trump] for turning a fringe obsession with his birth certificate into an issue he'd had to address from the White House briefing room in 2011."
Dovere errs on several counts. Trump was not the one who turned the birth certificate into an issue. Obama was.

Yeah, I think that you have to have a difference between the scientists in China and the Chinese government. I don’t have much insight \

This to shall pass..... Sadly some people need to learn the hard way. Society needs police. It's obvious without them that way too many people don't understand the importance of basic morality and mutual respect for communities to thrive. Who should we blame for the surge in violent crime if the defunding of the police hasn’t actually happened? It’s not a trick question.
