Average police salary in my state is around $60k. But most make over $100k and some up to $200k with overtime assignments like doing nothing while construction crews do their thing.
I thought the boogaloos were in favor of both, because their goal is a civil war, not anything sane.
Cross-racial open carry rallies might be one of the things that scare folks into real change though. The Black Panthers got real scary to white government when they started to get white support.
Yeah, the average cop makes quite a bit more than $30k. The average in the worst state (Mississippi) is $36k, but that’s the only state in the 30s and there are only 6 states where the average is under $45k.

It would be good if they could work witht the native nations and rather than being a parody, embrace native culture and become a force for good supporting understanding and supporting native americans.
While Washington Ancostans (the local tribe) may be too much of mouthful how about Washington Natives?

I do worry that these optics fall into a narrative which will be echoed on Facebook and Parler as ‘see you need ot prepare’.
Of course everybody has the right use the second amendment but just because the white power morons can do it showing the other side can also do it just feels like increase recruitment for the racists.
But I’m a middle class bleeding heart white liberal Englishman so my opinion on this subject is questionable at best and is offered as such.

It was a Brit describing another Brit and we invented the language. There are words which have significantly worse meaning in the UK but learn to think about the difference and who’s saying it.
Personally I feel that the US should be embracing the word. If you use the qualifier ‘absolute’ there’s no better words for describing your current president.
Add some qualifiers: utter, rancid.
The Washington Human Beings!
I have a ‘go to’ name I use typically for slow moving baseball sim teams. I will give it up to Dan Snyder tho… the Washington Monmuents.
In keeping with the company town-ness of DC, and popular perception (and current reality) of that business, how about the Washington Grift?

Can we do it like the Indians and Chinese are, i.e. using these:

Proving once again it’s not just police, but idiots everywhere. Reading their names, seems russian?
Lincoln City Police said the men were part of a group of 10 white people from Clark County, Washington, who had been harassing a Black family by yelling racist slurs and using Nazi salutes as people spent the holiday on the beach in front of the Inn at Spanish Head in Lincoln City.
Gennadiy Kachankov, Antoliy Kachankov, Andrey Zaytsev, Oleg Saranchuk, Ruslan Tkachenko and Yuriy Kachankov, all from Clark County, were arrested Saturday and later released, police said. One man who refused to identify himself was taken to the Lincoln County Jail for fingerprint identification.

This is my not surprised face. Seems you drive straight from Vancouver into Alabama.
They have a friggin confederate statue memorial park right off I-5 north of the city.
You absolutely cannot make this stuff up. This is so sad and frustrating. The Onion being real is getting old.

No racism here says the couple who paint over a city-authorized “Black Lives Matter” on the pavement.
If there exists a city in the Bay Area that’s majority Trump voters, it’s most likely Martinez.
