12 hours ago, Tug said:Ahh no imo they are punishing the police department for royally (insert word here)up as far as any rioting just think if when this happened we had a president who responded to the obvious shameful fact that that cop murdered an American rite in front of our eyes but instead chose to fan the flames of division for personal gain hummmm??
The cop was restraining a person who had a history with the cops. Try reading the link I provided. Sheds a new light on things.

Nothing interesting about that at all. Chauvin didnt arrest him that time.
You can bet if this is admitted it will have an effect on the trial.

But wasn't it reported this was the most secure election in history?

Do you think a not guilty in the criminal trial will result in only a peaceful protest?
Heres a hint. The payout settlement has nothing to do with any potential riots. That depends on the result of the criminal trial.
The city and their lawyers dont agree with you.

That would be a license to burn and loot cities.

That's your opinion, I believe the payout has everything to do with minimizing damage to city.

Deep enough??

His past behaviour and crimes are irrelevant. Police do not dispense summary justice. He was in custody, under their care and control and they killed him.
If it was you or me that killed him his estate and family would get very little. But it was an officer and the city is responsible for that.
Cheaper than having the city destroyed had a smaller more intelligent claim been awarded.

They're hoping to minimize the looting if a smaller more intelligent settlement had happened.

This settlement never should have happened till after the trial. Or at least shouldn't have been announced.

I should have been more specific.
"Now they are trying to say it never happened and its all on the dems." is what I was initially referring to. Who is trying to say what never happened.
Of course I remember the chaos the caravans brought.

Sure did, remember the caravans and calling it a national emergency under trump. Now they are trying to say it never happened and its all on the dems.
Trump stopping aid to these countries made it worse.

I deleted most of your ... post and responded with facts. Interesting to find all the facts.
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-46748492
It's 452 miles (727 km) in total, according to the latest US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) information (4 January 2021).
However, only 80 miles of new barriers have been built where there were none before - that includes 47 miles of primary wall, and 33 miles of secondary wall built to reinforce the initial barrier.
The vast majority of the 452 miles is replacing existing structures at the border that had been built by previous US administrations.
President Trump has argued that this should be regarded as new wall, because it's replacing what he called "old and worthless barriers."

“The border wall system is a critical tool for Border Patrol agents—it helps slow or stop those who attempt to illegally cross into the United States, giving our agents time to respond and make an arrest,” the released said. “The border wall system’s effectiveness also goes beyond the barrier itself, to include the roads, lighting, and technology that help our agents secure the border.

So your best source of “news” is a failing GOP governor, beset by his own disastrous responses and wildly looking for any deflection possible?
Nice try but as they say, no cigar.Take your pick of news sources as they span the political spectrum, sooner or later you won't be able to deflect. Because of the biden admin the number of illegal crossings are exploding.

They don't want to come here, they rather stay in their culture, with their families , friends , and language. So we need to help them improve conditions in their countries so that they would want to stay there. Or we can try to build a wall around us and create a fortress America.
IMO these are the only two options.
I think helping them improve their countries is not only a win win situation, but is the moral thing to do since we helped them wreck their countrie,
In America they have their culture, their language and probably some family. What's not to like.

Well, I see since you can't defend the wall, you've decided to deflect on to something else. The topic isn't about Catch-and-Release, it's about a wall that is proving to be ineffective. An expensive, ineffective boondoggle. If it can be cut open enough allow vehicles to get through, imagine how easy it will be for people to get through.

No deterrent is 100% effective, but a 30 ft high barrier is better than a single strand of barbed wire. Wasn't a problem building barriers when obama was president. Oh the hypocrisy is staggering.

There are better, and more humane, ways to solve this problem. The fence isn't the best approach. I do agree it's a good thing, but not across the entire southern border. Doesn't make sense. And yes, I've been to a lot of the Southern border. Many times, in many different areas.
In the end, these are just poor people desperate for a better life. Sad some are against that.
The world is full of desperate people looking for a better life. That's not a legit argument.
As I stated before I'll listen to the Border Patrol professionals.

I didn't realize inspecting the border was a prerequisite for having an opinion.
Having a proper barrier isn't a 100% fix but certainly is necessary as well as the natural barriers where having a man made barrier isn't required.
The Border Patrol acknowledges that a 100 ft wall means 100 ft ladders but as they have stated, it's a necessary deterrent. I'll take the word of a professional Border Patrol everyday, all day.

So, he builds a $2 Billion wall that doesn't work and costs a fortune to maintain?
Just a hint, but you can be assured that when people decide to cross the border, they will. No wall will. They haven't worked in the past and they won't now.
The wall in conjunction with a strong immigration policy is better than what's to come. Illegal crossings have skyrocketed under biden.
Much of the wall that was built was contracted under obama as well as rebuilding existing barriers.

Thanks for the link. It's pretty obvious that the wall isn't very effective with a whole big enough to drive a vehicle through.
Sort of like saying cars are ineffective because they can break down. This section of barrier is old, it was cut, it didn't just fall down. It will always need maintenance, much like fences around home occasionally need fixing.
