Bill Barr says communities that don’t show respect to police may lose police protection

[Secure Da Bag]

Ah I misread the OP. I thought Barr was saying communities that don't respect police will have their police numbers decreased or removed all together.

Less cops the better.

Yeah. That theory didn't work so well in Baltimore after Freddie Gray. And I didn't hear about any black organizations stepping up to police the streets either.

I'll take my tax dollars back then. I've never in my life called the police for HELP. Never.

How exactly would they draw a line between if a community as a group respects the police or not? That’s completely subjective.

I’m sure the actual answer is rooted in racism, but this is a strange statement to make.

Expect this rhetoric to increase as they try and give red meat to their base heading into elections.

You must know evangelicals.

Usually the lack of respect stems from a lack of protection to begin with

cops are public servants, they work for taxpayers

Wild to me that Barr was supposedly a highly respected official before he joined the Trump administration. I refuse to believe that he wasn't a total ass all along and was just hiding it somehow.

like father, like son...

They take your tax money still. They greedy fascists.

Still stunned at how insane the government has become.
