For decades, Democrats' talking points focused on voter suppression and potential unfair voting practices. Here is a perfect opportunity for the Democrat party to appear magnanimous in the eyes of the American people.

People who, under normal circumstances, wouldn't consider owning a firearm but have been converted by the combustible landscape, now seek out means to protect themselves.
Hoping for a president's death? How did it get this bad?
If you don’t think some would want Trump on the list of evil leaders, then you have misjudged the deep-rooted resentment for the current Commander in Chief.

If police are less able to handle a mass shooter incident, will the blood of those injured or killed easily wash off the hands of council members who voted down a vehicle that could protect lives?

The Republican Convention — or should I say "Trumpalooza 2020"? — has been polar opposite to what the Democrats presented.
A big GOP fail and the problem with politics
The Republican chairman's job is creating a party message, quality candidate recruitment and fundraising. Has he been skilled enough in these areas to sufficiently appease state central committee voting members?
More cops, better training, zero tolerance for brutality and racist actions
The police are charged with the unforgiving responsibility to protect and serve. Let's give them the resources and support to do just that.
An Independence Day littered with turmoil
Peaceful objections and protest can be patriotic, but hate for hate's sake divides.
Will The Mob alone decide which images stand?
Shame on the New London police brass for caving to The Mob and bowing to the cowardice of political correctness.

Nationally, a majority of police departments report a declining number of applicants.
