  1. Just the fact the question is posed to the general public says a lot…..it's like a mechanic asking you how to fix your car🤔

  2. Defund The Police !!!!!

  3. Defund The Police !!!!!!

  4. Defund The Police !!!!!!

  5. Defund The Police !!!!!!

  6. We Do Not Need Cops !!! In Our Community OR Streets !!!

  7. Legalize hand grenades so we can protect ourselves , a lot of us have poor eyesight and a bad aim.

  8. Even so called upper crust white folks aren’t safe from white supremacy…..collateral damage I guess!

  9. I find it interesting that you don’t see nearly as much screaming about gun control and background checks from democrats. Why could that possibly be?

  10. It's not the polices job bozos. It's the governments. Legal concealed carry all over the US would nip this problem in the butt.

  11. Arm your citizens! Ask West Virgina’s police how Karen helped stop a shooting..

  12. Force everyone to have an AR15 at all times and ammo. Fine anyone who refuses to carry $100,000 and if they don’t pay within 3 years give them life in prison. Anyone who takes a life needs to be executed and anyone who causes damages of more than $100,000 needs life in prison.

  13. Quit having them thats about it in the way of stopping them.

  14. It’s impossible to stop violence. Whether with a gun, a car, a knife, an explosive, a stick. Bad people will find a way. Or they will go into politics, get in the White House, and destroy as much as they can.

  15. When you want start event you file form at police station

  16. Mk Ultra – staged ? Anti gun agenda? Anti American agenda 21? The list goes on same agencies involved?

  17. Another victory for strict Gun Control, defunding police and not prosecuting violent criminals.

  18. Another ANTIFA terrorist winked at by Demonrat authorities, bailed out by Kamala. Same consequences.

  19. So much of his commentary is stupid. We have laws that support and promote these mass shootings and gun violence in general because too many national leaders get a kick out of them (Yes, real sadistic pleasure.) get their power from supporting them, or get rich because our gun carnage promotes vast Police expenses and gun sales. Is it really impossible for so many people to be ignorant of or blind to the real truth?

  20. 🚫POLICE MAKE REPORTING CRIME A COSTLY CRIMINAL OFFENSE! 🚫
    REPORTING criminal activity to the police will land the callers in court with a criminal charge, and flat broke: (Maybe even jail)
    Callers reporting criminal activity will receive a ticket (Criminal Offense) and court date through the mail for falsely reporting crimes transferring the legal burden of proof and legal costs upon unsuspecting callers! (This is common practice among the police and it's dead wrong!)
    Oakland County Sheriff Deputy MATT MATCHETT #2366 and Wayne County DPD Gerald Beckem #3798 are obsessed with this dishonorable evil ploy of forcing innocent taxpayers to act as state prosecutors!
    REPORTING CRIME IS FAR TOO COSTLY FOR THE AVERAGE TAXPAYER!
    CAVEAT: (Police serve and protect the state, not the people!)
    QUALIFIED IMMUNITY MUST BE ABOLISHED FROM ALL POLICE FOR ACCOUNTABILITY!
    – Michael B. Saari for State Senate 2022

  21. gun control…’effin simple
