Imagine for a moment that Ilhan Omar really is a pro-jihad subversive working to destroy America from within, as many have charged. How would she behave any differently from how she is behaving? If the Minneapolis police force, or any police force, were disbanded, the result would be chaos, anarchy, and violence, with the rich hiring private police forces and the poor having to fend for themselves. Who would want an America like that?
The Minneapolis Police Department has proven themselves beyond reform.
It’s time to disband them and reimagine public safety in Minneapolis.
Thank you to @MplsWard3 for your leadership on this! https://t.co/AQfHM5M6eR

Just Venting says
I will go out on a limb here. Wait and watch for certain areas to suddenly declare the area to be a certain type of “republic” and no longer under the US Constitution. Suddenly, a whole new “police” or “defense force” will be needed. The timing will most likely be to cause disruption of peaceful and secure elections or in response to an election that did not produce the desired (planned) results.
Those that have read widely in history will know that this is not a new phenomenon. The last time someone tried this here, it did not work out as planned. But that was when we had far fewer personal/internal arguments regarding values, beliefs, roles, and minor details like right v wrong. We also had an industrial base not dependent upon the whims of another country’s politics. We now have had multiple generations utterly confused regarding right/wrong, emotional v thoughtful response, gathering facts and weighing evidence v feeling and opinion. We have now had 50 YEARS of our ability to produce everything from tooth picks to pickles to specialty electronics moved to far away and often unfriendly shores. Read your food labels and see where your food was grown or processed.
If anyone thinks that the sudden urge by many to suddenly obtain some kind of firearm is a good thing, think again. These are simply tools that do not care about who is toting it around or what it will be used for.
CogitoErgoSum says
I guess the Democrats want us to go back to the feudal system where we pledge our allegiance to a rich aristrocrat who has the ability to protect us if we are good and faithful servants who will keep him in power.
CogitoErgoSum says
Why were the police called in the first case to arrest Floyd? I’ve read that he was passing a counterfeit bill. However, that is not a crime. He may not have even known it was a counterfeit bill. Even so, wouldn’t counterfeiting be something for the U.S. Treasury Department to investigate? Just why did the Minneapolis PD even get involved?
ElderlyZionist says
Knowingly passing counterfeit money is a felony under federal law.
https://www.moneyfactory.gov/resources/lawsandregulations.html
gravenimage says
Quite true, ElderlyZionist.
CogitoErgoSum says
The key word in that law is “knowingly.” I could pass a counterfeit bill unknowingly without committing a crime. In fact, couldn’t I be considered a victim of a crime myself in that case? I would be out the amount of the counterfeit bill that I unknowingly accepted. Once the store clerk accepted the counterfeit bill, he became liable for the loss. Floyd should have just been questioned and then reported to the federal authorities for investigation. I still don’t see why he was arrested.
commonsense says
Per Candace Owens, Floyd was almost certainly aware that he was passing a counterfeit $20. According to the deli owner who called police, the ink on the $20 that Floyd handed him was still wet and running off the bill. Please watch the Candace Owens video from this past Thursday or Friday, posted at frontpagemag.com.
Demsci says
Saw Candace Owens. Wonderful.
Now, in Holland, state TV explained something about racial statistics concerning police violence. It explained that more whites were being killed by police than blacks. But, it said; 60 % of Americans is white and only 13 % is black (I suppose the rest are Asian, Latino, Native, ,,,,) So ……. it said, therefore we conclude that a black person has 3 x the chance of being killed by police than a white person. It said that because of that protests flared up now and then. And it stopped there.
But Candace said that what counted was the number of arrests police makes of white and black persons. And here the percentages are much different; maybe 40 % white and 30 % black??? And therefore the conclusion can be even that the whites are more killed than the blacks proportionally.
I apologize that I was so far unable to verify everything with statistics. But it might be a problem that the police and blacks confront each other per capita much more than police and whites, OK. But it is disingenuous to suggest that police KILLS (as opposed to ARRESTS) blacks disproportionately. I resent this subtle misrepresentation of our state TV.
Demsci says
To be clear, Dutch state TV attempted to clarify why so many in USA were protesting, by “showing” the statistics about police killings in USA.
David says
How do you prove that someone was knowingly passing a counterfeit bill?
gravenimage says
David, some people are indeed convicted of passing counterfeit bills:
https://www.criminaldefenselawyer.com/resources/can-i-be-charged-with-using-counterfeit-money-if-i-di
There is always an attempt to discover whether this is done knowingly, or if the person passing the money were themselves the victim of a forger.
If it is a single bill, the person may well be innocent. If they are distributing a large amount of counterfeit cash, then they are likely laundering it. They will also be checked for links to counterfeiters.
gravenimage says
I’ve seen that video, commonsense. You can see it here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fij8TP0FE00
David says
How was Floyd apprehended in the first place? He was a big guy. How did the shop owner contact the police and detain him till the police arrived?
commonsense says
My thanks to gravenimage for uploading the Candace Owens video I cited in my earlier comment in this thread.
gravenimage says
Thanks, commonsense.

Russian collusion, Ukrainian collusion, Wuhan virus, all that didn’t work to get rid of President Trump. It seems Civil Unrest, Civil War even, is next. They MUST get rid of him, AND Netanyahu, or their plots for One World Government gets set back a Century or more. Best reason ever for a 2020 Trump victory.
E T says
Imam Mazin Abdul-Adhim, Canadian leader of the terrorist group, Hibtz ut-Tharir, tells his Canadian followers “Pigs and monkeys is what I call the likes of Netanyahu, yes he is much worse than pigs and monkeys. I’m trying to be nice actually”.
“The House Of War is EVERY land where Muslims do not yet rule—-and where Islamists will fight until they prevail no matter how long it takes”, so say the Muslim Brotherhood hoods.
Methinks they be part of this little equation.

Omar has already put feelers out to her bosses in Mogadishu in order to get the new police force sent over along with their technicals, RPG’s & AK-47s.
However, customs and immigration are causing problems with red tape.
Rarely says
Not even a marginally insane person would seriously suggest the disbanding of the police department. A revamping perhaps.She obviously has an other agenda — probably to sow discord and violence. Such crass irresponsibility could make individual police officers into targets. In any event she seems intent on causing as much trouble as she can.
Not a good candidate for Person of the Year.

Last night 3 police were shot in California, one died leaving behind a pregnant wife and small child. Will the Hollywood crowd start a go fund me page for his family like they did for George’s daughter?
How many more police and innocent will die before this madness stops?
BH. Boycott Hollywood
gravenimage says
Yes–this happened in Santa Cruz. Then, last week two federal officers were shot in Oakland where I live, and one officer died. This is ugly madness.
Ed Lee says
Now I understand why so many Muslims have congregated in Minneapolis: That city has such a weak-kneed government that they will submit to any and all demands made on them in the name of “race”.
As for disbanding the police department, I wish that every cop in America would go on vacation for a month, simultaneously. Those of us who support the Second Amendment would be fine, while the anti-gun, anti-self defense crowd (protesters, demonstrators, rioters) would fall victim to gangs, Muslim terrorists, Antifa, and other evil people.
Everyone needs to be reminded of Robert A. Heinlein’s words: “An armed society is a polite society. Manners are good when one may have to back up his acts with his life”.
E T says
Keith Ellison, Minnesota’s Muslim governor will take CAIR of things.
Ed Lee says
Clever turn of phrase; I like it. But, we will have to watch closely and see how much Sharia Ellison tries to impose from his position as Attorney General.

“If you say this just because of a few bad cops, then in the same lines of thinking it can be said the entire Muslim community is beyond reform and should be disbanded.”

Re-classified as “refugees”. Isn’t there a legislative mechanism for removing a member of Congress who behaves in such a manner? Or at least a couple of Reps with enough manhood left to pick her up and throw her out the door on her arse?
JMB says
So this woman wants to disband the Minneapolis Police Department, I assume that she is talking about the same police department that shot dead an innocent Australian woman only a couple of years ago. Note also, Officer Noor got 12 years for that shooting, will this be a guideline for sentencing the officers involved in the Floyd death? Namely officers who were dealing with a known criminal in a high risk area.
gravenimage says
Ilhan Omar calls for disbanding of Minneapolis Police Department
…………….
Interesting that Ilhan Omar didn’t talk like this when it was her coreligionist Mohamed Noor gunning down an unarmed Infidel woman…
Wellington says
A salient point, gravenimage.
Telling. Damning. Highly instructive.
James Lincoln says
Of course not, gravenimage.
That would not fit her, and I cringe to use this word, “narrative”.
Westman says
If she got her wish to disband the Minneapolis police department and it was the Muslim community who then suffered the results, what would she say? Or, would the Muslim community start Sharia Patrols and control everyone? Or, would it be the Muslim community from which the lawbreakers would emerge?
Give the police a paid month off and let’s see the actual results and whether disbanding a police force is a valid idea.
Bezelel says
” any police force, were disbanded, the result would be chaos, anarchy, and violence, with the rich hiring private police forces and the poor having to fend for themselves.”
And they want to disarm us too!!!! Gee what’s the worst that can happen? I didn’t sign up for this sh!!
James Lincoln says
Bezelel says,
” any police force, were disbanded, the result would be chaos, anarchy, and violence…”
From all indications, that’s what the leftists – in synergy with “good” muslims – actually want to happen…
If that happens, sharia law takes over to fill the void – and the leftists face a firing squad circa 1979 Iranian revolution…
Bezelel says
I don’t think that’s straying from Robert is teaching us.
gravenimage says
True, James. The Mullahs savagely liquidated the Iranian Communist Tudeh Party after they consolidated their power after the “Islamic Revolution”.
underbed cat says
Chaos is just what the doctor ordered for her to slip in sharia law…..an adjunct to the call to prayer. It has been predicted MN was in trouble I just didn’t know the exact number of the sharia adherent came with the Somali migration. Of course the AG sharia secret MB was there to greet them and was able to create a state of siege totally unnoticed. Tired of America police she had the alternative laws of sharia goal all along. The same strategy that works in all counties. after the financing and structures of organizations develope the traffickers can bring in the not always “poor” victims to grow populations, get works skills and education to be placed in positions of power to do her muslim work, a seduction of settlements and skill to get into or effect the power structure. Sharia law must be understood and banned before it get traction

How can ANYONE get such an idea even those with NO brain what so ever!!! I do not know any country in the world incl. Muslim which do not have police. This woman is so hateful. She should be extremely grateful for a country which gave her such prestigious position, she would not be close to in her own country. Amazing. Nothing surprises me what comes out of her satanic dirty mouth.
James Lincoln says
commonsense, pointed out this video done by Candace Owens. I have provided a link below.
I listened to it in its entirety and could not find anything in it that was not factually correct.
Candace Owens is a great, courageous, and very intelligent black conservative woman who I absolutely admire. I would advise all clear thinking people to vote for her in a heartbeat if she decides to run for public office.

I found Candace annoying as hell…and full of shit.
James Lincoln says
Sounds like a leftist point of view, Ashley.
But at least you bothered to listen…

Ashley–with all respect–Owens says that Floyd never should have died and that the cops responsible are rightly being prosecuted, but that she doesn’t want to glorify a violent thug. I’m not sure what about this you consider to be full of shit.

Yeah saw it, found it alread independently. But thanks in case I would not have found it before. Great video!
Michael Casmer says
I work for a big box store. We have device at each cash register that has a black light in it. It can detect fake bills. I think now 20’ss or higher have a metal strip running through them, and a hologram as well. Impossible to fake, except when you bleach the numbers off. We are told to just take them , not confront the customer, nor call security. We absorb the cost. Well, what if everybody passed fake money? We will go out of business soon. That guy was probably a small mom and pop operation.
gravenimage says
I can see not having cashiers call security, but you don’t even bother to report counterfeit bills to the police or flag the customer for the future? This seems like a recipe for disaster if this becomes widespread.
OLD GUY says
And I’ll bet SHARIA law will be at the top of her list. The muslim/islamic plan is to over through American society, so lets due away with law and order and replace it with an islamic dictatorship that uses “religion” as its base of control and violence. Omar supports violence and anarchy and should be tried for her criminal violation of our immigration laws.

Police departments are shut all the time . I grew up in a village that disband the village police in fravor of the newly form country police department. It cost a lot of money to run they own police department. NYC disband the old police department which was fighting with than state back city police force in the early 19th century they where so busy fighting each other that all the local criminal gangs United to riot in the city both of then refuse to do they job. The army from the local fort have to put down the riot. They where both disband and new police department was for which is the current police department.
gravenimage says
I’m sure “Brian Hoff”–really, “DefenderofIslam”–would be *thrilled* to destroy the police so that his coreligionists could run riot murdering Infidels and imposing Shari’ah law.
Brian Hoff says
To the white racist first I only point out that police department where disband for many reasons. In case of the village I grew up in all the police office became apart of the county police force. Why paid for two police department . May be some racist police who refuse to chance with the time need to disband and replace.
Brian Hoff says
The city council vote to disband the police department.
Brian Hoff says
They already have than pirvate security company to take over.
gravenimage says
The Minneapolis City Council voted 9-3 to defund the police department.
“Brian Hoff’s” claim that that they have “than pirvate security company to take over” is entirely false.
Brian Hoff says
It isnot false the city council vote to disband the police department that refuse to clean up they department of racist rightwing officer. This was in the work for many years and there is than replacement police department already.
