  1. So you want #45 to win, his plan to give Police immunity. Your country is desolate, your cities burned with fire; your fields are being stripped by foreigners right before you, laid waste as when overthrown by strangers.

  2. Fencing comes down to easy and they televised just how easy it is to get it down. Once they start attacking multiple areas there's not enough cops to keep up with it. Mayor Johnson said they're down 1100 officers. Full moon and the Purge is just getting started. Where's the national guard? Citizens stay inside and stay safe. Nobody is protecting the other 99% of the city. Gangs, cartels, and criminals will wreak havoc on the other 99% of the city for four days. Just crazy.

  3. Criticism of the Israeli government is not antisemitism. Condemning the only real democracy in the region in favour of a murderous, misogynistic and homophobic terrorist regime definitely is antisemitism.
