| #7 Black Lives Matter.... except to black criminals who regularly kill other blacks. Not a white guy in sight. What do the "activists" in the liberal paradise do? Blame the other party for this cesspool they have created with their policies. |

| #3 It would serve the idiot mayor right if the entire police force resigned en masse. At least she wouldn't have to worry about a police officer killing an "innocent" person. |
