This was your post, made on Mother's Day - "Literally yesterday the left attacked multiple Catholic Churches." -- the NY Post story did not take place "yesterday". It took place earlier last week in Colorado, a lone graffiti bombing in the middle of the night, no confrontation. No idea who did it. :roll:

Same non Mother's Day graffiti bombing described above.

A Faux News report from this morning describing a protest on Mother's Day. IT WAS A PROTEST, not an attack!! As described by the priest, this is a pretty regular event. Protestors carried signs and made some noise outside the church itself. Maybe a total of 100 protestors. More than usual. :roll:

A report of some protestors in Los Angeles who managed to get inside the church and made some noise. They were cleared by church security easily.

‘Party of norms’
... so what you have is nothing that qualifies as an attack, and one of the events had nothing to do with the Mother's Day threat. No fighting, simply protestors making noise. Only one case where the protestors even entered a church. No one injured.

For future reference -- the last two events are called protests. Only the first one is in any way a crime. Hell, there was not even an a bronze elk involved.

:lol: :lol: :lol:
To a snowflake who lives in alternate reality, these are egregious attacks!

Delaware State University 'incensed' after lacrosse team's bus stopped, searched in Georgia

Nice job by Liberty County, Georgia Sheriffs for pulling over a bus of college athletes and searching through their belongings and opening wrapped gifts from family. The only thing the officers found were black people. The bus driver wasn’t even charged for anything though was told otherwise.

"If there is anything in y’all’s luggage, we’re probably gonna find it, OK? I’m not looking for a little bit of marijuana but I’m pretty sure you guys’ chaperones are probably gonna be disappointed in you if we find any."

These cops are either real racists, real dumb, or real bored.

They need a suspension at least.

Cops acting tough don’t really get ‘prison sentences’. There needs to be an actual crime.

I agree they should at the very least get suspensions. If not, these two would likely be one more emboldened with each abuse.

Federal law says otherwise:

Title 18, U.S.C., Section 241 - Conspiracy Against Rights
This statute makes it unlawful for two or more persons to conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person of any state, territory or district in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him/her by the Constitution or the laws of the United States, (or because of his/her having exercised the same) ...


Punishment varies from a fine or imprisonment of up to ten years, or both ...

A commentator says:


These officers AND THE CHIEF should be fired. They crossed the line and violated Rodriguez v. United States (3-9972 - 2015) they lost their Qualified Immunity which leaves the officers themselves on the hook for any compensatory damages awarded for the forthcoming lawsuits. The Rodriguez ruling states that it is a violation of your 4th Amendment rights to unjustly prolong a traffic stop without Reasonable Suspicion. Furthermore, the only information the officers were entitled to was the Driver's License, Registration, and Proof of Insurance from the OPERATOR of the vehicle. Passengers have no legal obligation to provide identification to LE officials conducting a traffic stop, nor are they required to assist the police in their investigation. THEY BEGAN SEARCHING THE BAGS BEFORE THE K9 OFFICER ARRIVED AT THE SCENE. This was a garbage stop by garbage cops, and it'll cost them their jobs and likely result in a sizable settlement in favor of DSU, the athletes, et al. I can list about a dozen SCOTUS established prohibitions that were violated here.


Mind you I have a law degree and fully agree. There were several violations by those cops so that jail time could well be a valid remedy here. For years conservatives have said that government is not the solution, it is the problem. This "valid" in their minds except when it comes to the cops who can do no wrong in their little minds. By contrast I have said and have proven on more than enough occasions that it is the cops who are the problem. Jail time for these criminals is the ideal solution just as it is with Minneapolis cop Chauvin who was sentenced in federal court to 24 years in jail for violating George Floyd's civil rights.

The county has 60k or so population. Tiny rural area. Looks like it’s Savannah but it’s not. Like many parts of rural SE states, their budgets rely on over aggressive policing and fines/ticketing. Ins embedded in the culture. Then add in other considerations I know personally but not worth getting into here and it’s unfortunate but not surprising this happened.

In the town of Niagara, a man who can best be described as a model citizen and his family woke up this morning to find “KILL ALL N******** spray painted on his fence. And so the nightmare continues for our fellow Americans. I find it utterly exasperating. It must be torturous for people of color.

“I’ve never felt so out of place in my own neighborhood, and this is the place that I basically grew up,” said Jazlyn Parks, Johnny’s daughter. “It’s sad.”

At least there’s some positive news from the incident. Home Depot replaced the fence panels that were painted and installed a security camera.
