Simple, ignorant soul, the people’s choice. How the culture forms idiots.
BTW, as for the fools in black, they spray-painted her house, which already had a Black Lives Matter banner on its wall. Do their mothers know they’re out?

Seattle’s no-cop zone, approved by mayor and governor, means let a guy rob your store
Seattle seems to have ceded the governance of CHOP to protest groups, including Black Lives Matter, Urban League, Choose 180, Not This Time, Africatown, and others in an effort to make the area a better place to occupy. It appears the police department will mostly stay out of CHOP, except to “respond to significant life-safety issues in the area.” The city defined those as “an active shooter incident, an assault, a structure fire, significant medical emergency (i.e. heart attack stroke, trauma) and other incidents that threaten a person’s life safety.”
That has consequences. On Sunday night, the owner of a car parts store in CHOP said a protester broke in and tried to steal some cash and set a fire. According to an account on local news station KIRO7, the business owner grabbed the suspect and called the cops — “but despite more than a dozen 911 calls, police and fire never showed up.”
Well property is theft, right?

Updating one’s meditation . . .
Sunday sermons, weekday observations

Gospel MT 6:1-6, 16-18
Jesus said to his disciples:
“Take care not to perform righteous deeds

But when you give alms,
do not let your left hand know what your right is doing,
so that your almsgiving may be secret.
And your Father who sees in secret will repay you.“When you pray, do not be like the hypocrites,
who love to stand and pray in the synagogues and on street corners
so that others may see…

George P. Bush says he’ll vote for Trump in 2020 election
Excellent point. Like most Dems, Joe Biden would shilly-shally in the face of this threat, if not actively promote it. So like T. personally or not, he’s the man.
