LC Posted January 27 Posted January 27 Well, the ICE murders don't go towards those numbers. That's one way to keep murder statistics down

cwericb Posted January 27 Posted January 27 Anyone who can watch the videos of the murder of Mr. Pretti and still insist it was anything but a cold blooded murder has some serious mental issues. It is like they have been placed under hypnosis and told to deny the reality of the event. I guess we have seem similar situations with other cults like Jim Jones and the Jonestown massacre and David Koresh and the Branch Davidians and its fiery end. It gives serious pause when one considers how those two cults came to an end. Especially when one considers that the present cult leader has his finger on the nuclear button. Think about it folks.

Spekulatius Posted January 27 Posted January 27 1 hour ago, cubsfan said: Meanwhile: Chicago - murders down to lowest since 1965 - shootings down 35% Memphis - murders down to lowest since 2019 - shootings down 40% Washington DC (since Trump surge YTD) - murders down 60% - carjackings down 68% - violent crime down by 30% for 2025 New Orleans - murders down to lowest level in 50 years. Thank you President Trump - Minneapolis next. That has got to sting @DooDiligence It’s true that murder rates as well as other crimes went down in 2025 versus 2024. However, they went down just that same amount from 2023 to 2024. Crime rates generally went up during Trump’s first presidency. https://counciloncj.org/crime-trends-in-u-s-cities-year-end-2025-update/

Think about this: You do not antagonize a law enforcement officer when you have a gun. You submit. Period. Any parent that does not teach their children this lesson - is a the fool.

Stick to arguing points...feel free to get your little jabs in then...but make a cogent response to something. Otherwise head to Reddit for amateur hour! I'm allowing you to debate on actual issues, because this stuff festers in our minds and eats away at us if we don't get to vomit it out. Take advantage of that opportunity, rather than just throw cheap insults at each other! Cheers! Sanjeev, it only eats away at a few of you here. How many COBF members are there, and how many have to constantly rant about Trump, each and every day, nonstop? Looks like only a few of you need nausea medicine while most of us get on with our lives.

He had his hands raised when ICE/CBP agent engaged him. Can't say that about your girl Ashli who lounged at the officer who was in a defensive stand with a gun drawn. Apply your own standards. Be consistent.

She was shot like dog by a black Capitol Cop twice her size. Talk about "excessive force" Sick.

That's a rather strange comment coming from one of the most prolific posters here, probably second only to Cubs in defense of Trump and his policies.

You have government controlled masked mobs roaming the streets at will attacking innocent citizens, the president of the Country has verbally attacked and/or insulted almost every one of its former friends and allies and threatened several with invasion, and you think that those who disagree are "unhinged"?

Try sticking to the truth for once. You have hundreds of rioters being arrested for assaulting and interfering with law enforcement in MN as an organized mob precisely because they do NOT respect law enforcement. This issue was settled at the ballot box in Nov. Your mob decides to use violence to settle it.

Do you even begin to understand how and why Trump was elected? It wasn't people like me. It was the Left and their horrible policies who elected Trump. The same people who call him a Nazi, orange hair and other childish names. The same people who pursued one exercise in legal futility after another seeking to destroy him. A news media that played right along. All you people who believe Americans are stupid and can't think for themselves. They made a martyr out of him and are still doing it. "Masked mobs"? Exactly, to protect themselves from unhinged and deranged people who have been brainwashed.

The vast majority of violence I have been seeing has come from the masked thugs roaming the streets who have shot and killed two people. People have a right to demonstrate and protest when they believe that government is going against their wishes. I kinda thought there was something in the Constitution about that?
