MINNEAPOLIS, MN- According to reports, thousands of drivers are refusing to stop when police attempt to pull them over, with data showing that it happened more than 3,100 times in 2020. New research looks into what is behind the uptick in people not following the law. [Tweet] “Super speeding” is way up in Minnesota, with the Minnesota State Patrol regularly clocking speeds of more than 100 miles per hour. Fatalities are up too and there is something else that is making the roads even more risky. Col. Matt Langer said in a statement: “People are fleeing from police at a rate we’ve never seen before.

Comments:

"Super speeding" sounds as dangerous as super spreading. Going over 100 can be ho hum in rural areas, less so in cities. Ten years ago a friend was out west of Nashville on I-840 trying out his AMG Mercedes at 2 AM on a deserted stretch of road. He had it to 150, then heard a roar beside him as a smiling Oriental looking fellow floored his ZR-1 Corvette, pulled steadily away, and disappeared at 180+. My friend backed down to 75. What was the use? Fortunately, no cops were out that night on that stretch of highway.

I had assumed defund the police meant that i could drive as fast as i want. I guess it does/will. Do social workers have tire spikes? Do they mind if i drive fast if I identify as a race car driver?

No one should ever try to beat this one: a Kawasaki H2 versus a State Trooper. Remember the Road Runner? Meep meep. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WrtWGyhUvw&t=4s What the motorcycle rider did was incredibly stupid, but he got away with it. Incidentally, the Kawasaki Ninja H2 is a 998cc supercharged bike with 310 brake horsepower at 14,000 rpm. The bike will do 248 mph (400 kph) in 26 seconds! Here it is doing that in Turkey on a long bridge. (No, it's not legal for the street.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_n7ru1e-rg Cogito ergo zoom. (h/t David E. Davis)

Solution is really pretty simple NO BAIL for anyone with fleeing charges(Demonstrated flight risk), and 100% of every traffic violation being charged/ticketed, no pleas for reductions approved...since you only go to "prison" after a felony conviction w/1yr or longer term, Perps have to stay in the local jail,zero luxuries such as hot meals, mattresses, blankets, no private property. Shared holding cells with puking drunks and constant in/out turnover of new arrestees....no "Lights out" sleep time. Word will get around quick that it is easier to pull over, face the music for whatever is outstanding as far as warrants and possession, than to languish for weeks, months, in the drunk tank waiting for a trial date.

I live in Minnesota and this is the first time I have been told that my state is 'police-defunded'.. The headline is false! Minneapolis voted to defund the polise, not the state of Minnesota. As a child I loved to goto Minneapolis. It was a great city, breautifully scenic with it's manhy lakes, streams, waterfalls, and the Mississippi River. It used to be somewhat moderate and frequently had Republican mayors. Don't brush the entire state with the current lunacy in Minneapolis.

If it's Minnesota there's a good chance that you are being pulled over by Somalis pretending to be cops, so it makes sense not to pull over

It’s a well-known fact that liberalism and comedy aren’t a good mix. Witness Hannah Gadsby. Or most of Saturday Night Live‘s recent output. Or any of the current crop of late-night show hosts. The same goes for the various departments of the Biden administration. Case in point: this doozy of a meme that the Department of Transportation recently tweeted. [Tweets] If you don’t get it, it’s okay. There’s nothing to get other than the leftist talking point. I’m not sure what we’re supposed to call the diametric opposite of comedy gold, but this is it. This meme is an affront to comedy. It’s neither cute nor funny, and it’s certainly not clever.

Climate change prophecy hangs its hat on computer climate models. The models have gigantic problems.

“There's Nothing More Frightening in America Today than an Angry White Man,” a CNN op-ed headline blared after the Rittenhouse verdict. And then Darrell Brooks, a black racist, career criminal, and convicted sex offender with two open felony cases, intentionally drove into the Waukesha Christmas Parade, leaving bloody children strewn like crumpled flowers. Baby strollers and battered wheelchairs lay on the street in the aftermath of this racist rampage, while the media tries to cover up his black racist agendas. If a white racist had slammed his car into a black parade, there would be little doubt and less question about his motives.

If you look around the headlines from the past week or so, you will see a startling similarity among them. Coming in from all over the world are mandates from one country’s government after another instituting medical apartheid over the COVID-9/11 jab. Where these restrictions are the most draconian are within the walls of the European Union, that region where The Davos Crowd’s influence is undoubtedly the strongest. Latvia will bar unjabbed legislators from voting. Slovenia made the jab mandatory to go to the gas station. Austria’s new Chancellor, who’s been on the job for around a month, is now fining and arresting the unjabbed for even leaving their homes.

In a critical assessment of the Rittenhouse trial, Conrad Black denies that the outcome of the case vindicated the American justice system (Snip) Black is mainly concerned here with the plea-bargaining system that state prosecutors use to condemn defendants even before a trial has taken place. But this is not the part of Black’s criticism that riveted my attention. The American justice system has become “evil” for a reason that Black only mentions in passing, namely the role of the media in inciting mob violence by racializing criminal cases. We saw this play out in the Rittenhouse case; we are now witnessing something similar taking place

The U.S. death toll from the Chinese coronavirus under President Joe Biden’s administration will soon surpass the death toll recorded during former President Donald Trump’s administration, and in less time — despite vaccines being available under Biden and not under Trump. Approximately 378,955 people in the United States have died from the Wuhan virus in Joe Biden’s first ten months in office, according to statistics provided by Johns Hopkins University. The nationwide coronavirus death toll — which was at 396,442 when Biden first took office — is now at 775,397.

As we learn more about the senseless SUV attack on the crowd attending a Christmas parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin, some liberal media outlets are energetically attempting to spin away from the suspect Darrell Brooks and his left-wing politics on social media. That's funny. With Kyle Rittenhouse, they quickly dug into his social media activity. The Washington Post warned last summer "the 17-year-old shadowed local law enforcement, filling his social media feeds with posts declaring that 'Blue Lives Matter' and photos of himself posing with guns." For Brooks, the Post lamely mentioned Brooks wrote under the name MathBoi Fly and that "after multiple legal battles," he "started turning the life he lived

Reprising the disastrous assumptions of Field Marshall Haig that the enemy could not sustain a war of attrition, General Westmoreland’s strategy in the Vietnam War put us on a path in which our primary goal quickly mutated into a desire to achieve the appearance of not losing while desperately looking for an exit. Trying to appear not to lose is now the sole basis for our COVID-19 policy. “Losing” does not mean the disease spreading until herd immunity reduces it to endemic status (which was always going to happen anyway). Losing would be a forced admission that the suppression strategies failed

With secret police chief Merrick Garland siccing the FBI on parents at school board meetings and the social media giants continuing to cut the ground out from under dissenting voices, the Biden administration has not exactly provided a welcoming place for the freedom of speech. However, Francis Collins, the outgoing director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), thinks there is still altogether too much of it. Collins wants those who are spreading “misinformation” to be “brought to justice,” and pronto. It’s disconcerting to see an official of the United States government (the NIH is an agency of

The radicals who tell Joe Biden what to do as president overreached when they had him nominate Saule Omarova as comptroller of the currency, a powerful regulator of the banking system. The émigré from Soviet-era Kazakhstan, a Lenin Scholar at Moscow State University, earned a credential as a Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin, while also earning the credential of thief for an arrest for shoplifting in Madison, demonstrating contempt for private property. Naturally, she ended up as a professor.

All this is taking place just as talk builds of Kamala Harris’s disastrous performance as veep and the Democrats’ terrible presidential electoral prospects in 2024.

Despite rave reviews, Disney’s Encanto, an animated musical with songs from Lin-Manuel Miranda, took a nosedive at the holiday box office. Lol. As of Thursday, this tale of a magic castle in Colombia (or something) is expected to gross just $26 million over three days and an anemic $38.6 million over the full five-day holiday. First off, no one can blame streaming. This is a theatrical-only release. Secondly, no one can blame the pandemic. Plenty of movies are opening just fine. How bad is this? Oh, it’s bad. By comparison, one of Disney’s biggest bombs, The Good Dinosaur, grossed $55.4 million over the five-day Thanksgiving weekend.

Democrats have long wanted the government to parent or co-parent your children, so it shouldn’t surprise anyone that President Joe Biden said the quiet part out loud Monday night. Is the administration upset that you might be spending too much time with your family? The statement is also rather vague. The “nearly 2 million” number, I assume, represents the 1.8 million-woman reduction in our labor force during the COVID-19 pandemic. But it’s untrue to claim this loss is only due to women leaving work to care for a family member. There are myriad reasons why the pandemic and government-induced shutdowns could have diminished the female workforce.

We reported on the announcement of a new COVID variant which they are now calling the Omicron variant. The variant was just discovered this week, but already you can hear the race to paint it in the worst light possible, suggesting that there was a lot to be concerned about because it was “heavily mutated,” that immunity and the vaccines might not protect against it. We saw the Dow take a huge plunge immediately after, likely in part because of thinking that this news could lead back to more government restrictions and problems. The Biden administration reacted in a chaotic fashion. First, Dr. Anthony Fauci said

Carrie Bourassa, a public health expert who served as scientific director of the Canadian Institutes of Health Research’s Institute of Indigenous Peoples’ Health, was suspended on Nov. 1, five days after the state-owned Canadian Broadcasting Corporation published a lengthy expose on her background.

I reported earlier today on the announcement about the new COVID variant out of South Africa that immediately had some freaking out because it was supposedly “heavily mutated” and that the spike protein was “dramatically different.” That raised questions about whether immunity and the vaccines would be protective against it. There were also suggestions that it was “highly contagious among young people.” So, it seemed obvious they were gearing up to go crazy over this again. Then we reported on Dr. Anthony Fauci claiming they needed more time and information to decide on whether they needed to be talking about travel bans, that they wouldn’t be implementing a travel ban yet.

In early August Gideon Schreiber and a team of virologists at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel began playing around with the spike protein of the Sars-CoV-2 virus–the protein that allows the virus to enter our cells–to see if they could predict future mutations that could yield dangerous new variants of Covid-19. At the time, Schreiber noted with concern that there were a variety of ways in which the spike protein could evolve. If all of these mutations occurred at once, it could yield a variant that was both extremely transmissible and potentially capable of evading some of the body’s immune defences
