Is the BLM movement about:
- Justice for blacks?
- Or instituting Marxism/Socialism/Facism?
The BLM movement has been politically hijacked by Antifa/Marxists.

The Russia collusion BS didn't work. The fake impeachment was a flop. The Wuhan flu didn't work as intended. They need massive race rioting to get the job done by November, keep people distracted and vote by mail. They can't get the votes.

REFUND THE POLICE. or..... WHat do we replace Police with?
The American Thinker explores What the Dems could possibly have in mind to replace Police, should they actually get into power somehow. For those who don't like links:
https://www.americanthinker.com/arti..._examples.html
The future of local police departments has become a top election issue. Rasmussen released recent polls showing that Americans pay close attention to debates about law and order. For instance, 50% of likely voters want to see harder crackdowns on urban unrest, while only 38% support continuing protests in cities. Overall, 72% are concerned about recent reports of urban violence. Over 60% of Americans said their feelings about the protests will have an effect on their November voting.
Perhaps we have found the Democrats' Kryptonite. Conservatives have noticed for quite some time that the left never showed adequate concern about far-left extremism (listen here). The far left has greater numbers and, unlike the far right, is entrenched in major institutions like colleges. The far left hopes to claim the anti-police violence as a historic win for its side (see here). Democrats can't claim that the Floyd protests had nothing to do with rioting.
Protests have become linked in Americans' minds with riots. The organization seen as leading these demonstrations was Black Lives Matter (BLM), whose premier issue was defunding or abolishing the police. BLM leaders like Alicia Garza never hid their intent. Most BLM activists rejected talk of mere reform as too weak and compromising.
Thanks to the left, we're stuck with police abolition movements. At least 13 cities have moved to defund the police, including small Norman, Oklahoma, and metropolises like New York and Austin. According to Forbes, 34% of Americans support defunding while 53% oppose it. Democrats must explain what the world will look like without local police departments. They say people will be kept safe by less violent experts: counselors, neighborhood organizers, clergy, artists, doctors, etc. They suppose that enforcement can be transferred into these community hands.
The Democrats' not so novel idea has been tried. Many times. Whatever rules a society promulgates, someone will break them, and communities need agents of enforcement, deterrence, and restitution. Absent a perfect deity to administer justice directly, we settle for flawed humans monitoring and limiting the behavior of other flawed humans. Past generations have tried to soften the harshness of policing by suggesting less overtly brutal agents of enforcement. Let's see which of these historical examples most resembles what will happen in America.
The Spanish Inquisition
Inquisition courts began long before the fifteenth century, but they took a special form under the leadership of Torquemada. Cecil Roth's Spanish Inquisition describes the history of this institution and the anti-Semitism with which history remembers it. After the establishment of a "Holy Office" in the late 1400s, the inquisitorial courts were not technically under the supervision of the crown. Neither were they subservient to the Vatican. Their investigation of crimes against the Christian faith, as well as their determination of penalties, developed all the worst aspects of standard policing with none of the public accountability. In a 2005 history, Joseph Perez characterizes the Inquisition as "a religious institution at the service of the state."[1] This means tribunals, torture chambers, spies on every corner — the first Deep State.
The French Terror
In rejecting the Bourbon order, French revolutionaries, particularly the Jacobins, wanted to do away with the guards and prisons associated with kings and aristocrats. Several alternatives arose, such as the famous "Committee of Public Safety." The most famous iteration, however, became "the Terror," a massive and decentralized form of discipline based on a "familial" model. According to Colin Jones's review of Jean-Pierre Gross's research into the Terror, the Jacobins emphasized the Revolution as "a 'familial event,'" which other historians astutely perceived as a "band of bloodthirsty patricidal brothers."[2] Few people today think of the Terror as a family gathering, associating it rather with the guillotine and mass executions before screaming mobs.
The Gestapo
Seventy-five years ago, shortly after losing his office to the Labor Party, Winston Churchill said in a speech, "No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free sharp or violently worded expressions of public discontent[.] ... They would have to fall back on some form of Gestapo, no doubt very humanely directed [as] in the first instance."[3] While Churchill was forcefully condemned for likening socialists to the Gestapo, his point still holds. Secret police such as the Gestapo or Stasi arise, we must remember, as alternatives to standard policing, and often with the same high-minded ideals. The idea behind such units was to enforce laws without the public feeling openly savaged.
The Harper Valley PTA
Less ominous but still troubling is the possibility that Democrats will replace police departments with snooping prudes like the ones described in the sixties classic "Harper Valley PTA." In the song, "The note says, Mrs. Johnson, you're wearing your dresses way too high." While the song's fun treatment of hypocrisy made for comedy gold in the 1978 film version starring Barbara Eden, we should remember the eyewitness accounts from communist countries like Cuba and East Germany. Often community associations in such countries had structures similar to the Harper Valley PTA, but their snooping into people's personal lives could end with imprisonment or loss of their children.
Ingsoc
Winston Smith, the main character in George Orwell's unforgettable 1984, works for an entity that wants to instill love with no visceral discord. The book closes, after all, with Winston saying he loves Big Brother and embraces all the rules and regulations of the dystopian state. To arrive at such a feeling of love, he is monitored by government agents, stripped of his privacy, trapped in "Room 101," and ritually tortured until he has a massive breakdown. When we want to replace the police with something else, we must ask, what is it we want to be rid of? The uncomfortable visible signs that we are being policed? If so, the danger is that our replacement will work with propaganda and secret torture — "re-education" — to fix problems. We end up with Ingsoc, the political party in charge of Smith's nation.
The Manson Family
The leftists who decry police brutality often romanticize community. They do this even as they follow the lead of Marx's Communist Manifesto and reject nuclear families. Black Lives Matter, for instance, rejects "patriarchal practice," seeks to "disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement," and envisions family as the "global Black family." These heady redefinitions of "family" as the community model, put forward in conjunction with calls to dismantle the "police function," are not new. Cults have carried out these ideas in the past, with one of the most famous being "The Family," controlled by murdering psychopath Charles Manson.
The Ku Klux Klan
One of the most difficult truths about Jim Crow history is the rationale behind foundingKlux Klan in 1865. After the Civil War, some Southerners came to hate what they saw as a police state. They viewed themselves as victims of Northern occupation and hated having Union troops police their communities. They believed that none of the institutions filling the Confederacy's vacuum were protecting them, so they started clubs as an alternative. The alternative ended up being racist terrorism.
Jonestown
Calls to defund or abolish the police always spring from utopian dreams. To dream of a world without the local police department is to dream about another plane of existence, where people magically coexist, cooperate, and treat each other well. Experiments based on this utopianism fill the dustbins of history, but none left as poisonous an aftertaste as Jonestown. Charming and handsome, fanatically religious, and heavily supported by San Francisco Democrats, Jim Jones led hundreds of followers to Guyana. He promised to found a loving community devoid of conflict, racism, or oppression. When things didn't work out, he convinced hundreds of Jonestown's residents to kill themselves and their children with poisoned Kool-Aid.
A world without cops: dream or nightmare?
We do not have to depend on the imagination to envision a world without a local police department. The things that we need police for — security, enforcement, investigation, discipline — do not go away when you eliminate local constabularies. These tasks slide into the hands of other social forces, which almost always function without transparency, due process, or consistency. They are never less violent or more merciful to those who break a society's value system.
Because Democrats cannot, in any realistic scenario, uncouple themselves from the "Defund the Police" movement, they have nowhere to go but down, all the way to the bottom of the sea. The question is whether they will take the rest of us with them or not. One thing will determine whether they sink alone or sink us, too — who wins the November election.
