"Our firefighters facing some very critical situations, where their own safety is constantly put at risk," said Harrell, who when asked how the city is responding, "Through working with the labor group, the union, working with Harold Scoggins, the chief, listening to the officers figuring out how we can help them do their jobs, they do phenomenal work, our budget will reflect their safety needs as well."
Harrell falls under the category of useless idiot.

Well, here's something I haven't seen in a while; someone on a MS Teams video call, wearing a mask. Oh, geez.

Also: Journalizm!
"And so far just one felony case this year involving a firefighter- that seizure call from May where a firefighter was bit, according to a spokesperson in the Prosecutor's office." [Emphasis mine]

There have been 40 alleged assaults in about four months according to the Seattle Fire Union President Kenny Stuart.
1 felony? 40 assaults?
I don't see an issue, any of you see an issue?

I understand Foghorn Leghorn is going into the solar panel business. His sales pitch always starts with, "Sun...I say, sun"...

Did you know that an AR-15 shoots bullets that “travel 5 times as rapidly as a bullet shot out of any other gun"? "Tactical Joe" Biden says so.

I know we have said this before, but how can you have a rational policy debate with people we have basic facts complete wrong.
Flat earthers come to mind. Without a common agreed to reference system, discussion is impossible.

Up to a point, yes, but: Would it even matter if they had the facts right? They want power, and their power requires you and me to be disarmed.

That's part of the plan I believe, move the debate off facts. Reset the terminology.
That leaves the fact, result orientated floundering.

And everything is based on emotion, which is what they want. The emotions of those in charge make the decisions, not rationality.
