“We are going to do something that I will say is slightly controversial but it shouldn’t be. We are going to indemnify policemen and precincts and states and cities from being sued. We want them to do their job. Our police and law enforcement has to come back and they want to come back and they want to do their job. And we are going to indemnify them so they don’t lose their wife, their family, their pension, and their job. We are going to indemnify policemen and law enforcement. We are going to tell them to get out, we love you, do your job.” – Trump, speaking last night at the New York Young Republicans Club gala.

      Sorry, didn’t mean that to be the point of my thoughts, if it came out that way. I’d actually have to think about whether I feel that way. I also don’t know what western civilized means these days.

      Buuut… the data shows this is a very American problem. Police murdering people is only pandemic here. Brutality, killing pets, racism… def universal… but executions… mmmmerica way ahead #1. Another accolade alongside school shootings…
