Their President is a criminal. A bunch of them are criminals. Hell how many times have Anti Drug Republicans been caught with Illegal Drugs, but NEVER lose their jobs or go to prison like they DEMAND for others?
Also notice they NEVER want Mandatory Drug Testing...

The job of regulations is to prevent harm. In an ever more complex and interdependent world, there are many more opportunities to do harm, so there must, by definition, be more regulations prevent harm.

Huh?! They are sucking off the teat of the government now! They are systematically using the government to strip us of basic human rights. They are getting everything they want because of government involvement
We had it in Poland for 8 years when PiS governed our country. Billions of Polish Zloty's (PLN) disappeared. Now prosecutors have a plenty to do with it.
Kenneth Galbraith: "The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness." (Globe and Mail, 2002)
well i mean theres lots of reasons to want less cops they ain't exactly good at preventing crime in the first place and eat up waaaaay to much money for all the crime the continually fail to prevent (but your point is pretty solid)
Goal of private enterprise/corporations = profits at any cost.
(This is how we get child labor, polluted water & air, sick workers)
Goal of gov’t = create policies that benefit safety & well being of society, e.g., military, safety regulations protecting us from excesses of capitalism
It's not a 'supposed' rule though, is it? 'Supposed' would mean a rule that is imagined to exist, but doesn't. Fewer/less for countable/uncountable verbs is an actual rule.
You should have gone with 'contested'not 'supposed', innit?
The answer is before every Trump supporter. Throughout history, there have been a number of regimes that banned books. Every single one of them were fascist. YOU are the problem, not us.
This is a bad take. Police exist to monopolise violence - against us - in the service of power. Not to protect us from “criminals”. Otherwise why would Republicans love cops??
It's hard to see a radical pivot from "Republicans are weird and a threat to democracy" to "Republicans are some of my best friends, and one of them will get to sit on my Cabinet!" in any other light.
The issue: Are you on board with enforcing the law when it comes to self-enrichment at public expense? Other long-observed legal basics? Apparently Republicans are not. That's a problem. That's what it's saying.

Trying to one to one government safeguards to police funding is weird when more police / less police is only one piece in why crimes happen (and you know more is a recipe for brutality) / what could make a crime successful
wasn't trying to argue that instead pointing out the false equivalency others noted that government safeguards is not the same as police which is a symptomatic fix to a systemic issue
they protect corporations and property owners who do more systemic harm than any single person’s actions. “apprehending harmful people” is not the purpose they serve but a crumb for you to defend.
Here I want BETTER government...I live in Norway. And it's already pretty good, but no rules to protect disabled people or people who need more help than others!
Republicans have never wanted less government they want more control and I believe we should have less cops. I believe that if we invest in our communities and people’s needs are provided this world would be a much better place and we wouldn’t need cops
Although actually worse because cops actually are fucked up bastards and we should have less of them (or at least massive police reform to get all of the bad ones out of the police force. But that'll never happen in America).
We’ve welcomed lifelong criminal billionaires into our home, i.e., the government, who are trying to rob us blind. But we have the power to rid ourselves of these intruders.
A rather hilarious meme to get posted here of all places seeing as how so many numbskulls on the Left wanted to defund the police a few years ago and we still hear ACAB.
I have no love for cops, but some of y'all take this shit to a stupid level.
He was impeached in the house but the Senate did not confirm that to convict him. If they had confirmed it, I believe he would've had to leave Office. I'm not 100% sure.
Wealthy people consider all government spending to be the same as spending their own money, since they pay a substantial portion of taxes collected. They want small government because they figure that will reduce that government spending.
If you have a racist cop in a room with 10 other racist cops and no one says anything, you have 11 racist cops.
Yes, most. The police force was created out of the need to HUNT DOWN escaped slaves and continues to unalive marginalized people and people of color at a completely disproportionate rate.
Not to mention that between 20% and 40% admit to being domestic violence perpetrators (depending on the study). That’s between 2 and 4 times as often as the general population. This information as well as criticism or support of it is widely available ALL OVER. But here’s a link.
Simply put policing is a bunch of undereducated and violence prone people paid to protect the haves from
the have nots. Cops are muscle for Wealthy land owners who need protection so they get together and convince the masses to pay for police. The sheeples pay for their own persecution.
police: a largely lawless, loosely affiliated assortment of locally decisionist violence-perpetrators that exists at any given moment *exclusively* to uphold whatever is designated "order.”
They don't want less government, though! They want government between doctors and patients, they want government between childrens sports teams and who is allowed to play on them, they want government between online businesses and their customers, they want religion between teachers and students.
It is all about how much they can rob the tax payers and get away with it. There was a reason why these checks and balances were put in there in the first place.
They don't want less government though. They want less or no oversight and regulation of capitalism and infinitely more regulation of conservative social norms and restrictions on collective and individual rights. All considered I think they're for decidedly more government against common people.
Also, Trump wants a tariff on fentanyl coming to the U.S. from China? 🤣
Trump thinks we can get cheaper fentanyl from Mexico by cutting out the middle man, China. Trump announces fentanyl prices from China are soaring and tariffs are necessary unless China wants Mexico to corner the fentanyl market🤣
Thanks! Yes, the rhythm works better with the grammar error, but ugh. (For who doesn't see it: you use the word "less" for things you can't count, but "fewer" for things you CAN count. "Less water, but fewer gallons.")
Please note: we are not dealing with real Republicans, we are dealing with ignorant or/and threatened Maggots ! I AM pretty sure it’s dangerous to VOTE against our Orange Fuhrer peoples lives and families are being threatened or they are being paid off and sold their soul to the Beast - IMO
Is America going to wait till it is too late to block every highway, strike, refuse to pay taxes, conduct civil disobedience on a massive scale? It's all you've got left.
Money is speech, and forcing someone to speak is unconstitutional, so forcing someone to pay taxes is unconstitutional. It’s pretty simple. Thanks Citizens United.
Very true, true and true. Less control so they can rape and pillage the villagers more easily!! Typical fascist behavior! Much of what they are doing is right out of the Nazi playbook! Just look it up!!
Just like in the first Trump term, I expect deficits to skyrocket, and the only persons who will actually benefit will once again will only be the wealthy.
Misappropriation of fund is polite word for stealing when people that work in the government. Take money that's not theirs to take.! Which is what the Republicans will start doing.!
It’s also a good day to remind people that APAB. I’m seeing Super Bowl LIX stages in Jackson Square where people will happily celebrate around a large statue of Major Genocidaire Andrew Jackson. I don’t know how anyone can look at that without disgust.
The number of government employees today is the same as it was in 1960, when the population was less than half of today. It isn’t about government bloat or diversity or anything like that. It’s about extreme nazi-esque nationalistic white control.
Remember, much of Trumposhenko and his mob's behavior is designed to distract us from stopping them from stealing taxpayer monies wherever and whenever they can. It's very simple that way. Trumposhenko just wants a dragon-pile bigger than Bezos or the Jeenyus 5 y.o.

Then they want LOTS of government.
Please help distribute this flyer by printing a few.
Also notice they NEVER want Mandatory Drug Testing...
What if - you plan for a Ban robbery. You'd disable all the security features, security camera, security guards...
That's what they are doing.
Unless big brother wants to invade your (female) parts.

As in America, ideology does NOTHING for voters and their needs
Think very carefully when you vote
Flip flopping between Labor and LNP IPA is completely dysfunctional
Look for candidates that reject ideology!
I want his name replaced with this. The Truth.

I have no love for cops, but some of y'all take this shit to a stupid level.
I want fewer cops and have never committed a crime.
In summation: ACAB.

I bet this woman hadn't either

We need to control against thievery.
Among other things.

The gathering storms of tyranny are upon us again. The blood sacrifice is demanded once more…
Prepare
But, I want less cops and not because I'm criminal 😉
