I bet if someone could get the stats of how many of these β€˜officers,’ had a domestic violence record or DV complaints made against them, I’m sure the stat would be high! They’re already doing it in their β€˜professional roles!’ Assaulting women like in that clip & many others is totally disgusting!

They all seem to love violence like it’s their calling. Disgraceful.

Yep. Guns too. They hurt and kill children quite a lot. πŸ™„

Of course, guns are also very bad for children. Just saying. πŸ™„

Reasonable opinions Boris? That girls should do β€˜MRS,’ degrees - go to uni to find a husband then stay at home. That black women in the Supreme Court are taking the place white men should have? That women and all other races are inferior to white men? Joking about Nancy Pelosi’s husband?

I can’t get my head round that you could be in a serious car accident and refuse an ambulance because you maybe couldn’t afford it. And then I give thanks for the NHS despite its failings. πŸš‘ πŸ™πŸΌ

I recommend The Tenant of Wildfell Hall by Anne BrontΓ«. A lesser known BrontΓ« novel. Victorian feminism!

I need to make sure I have my glasses on when I read because I read this as β€˜White,’ slavery. Sad thing is I wasn’t surprised 😦

Played him like a fiddle like the experienced KGB operative he is. Coerced and manipulated Trump with: β€˜Oh the 2020 election was rigged!’ And β€˜If you were president the war would never have happened.’ Reeled him in rightly!! Trump is the weakest US president in history. A disgrace and embarrassment!

And all Putin had to do to ensure this continues was to use his enhanced KGB training & experience in manipulation and coercion: β€˜oh the 2020 election was rigged; oh the war would never have started if you were president.’ Worked an absolute treat. Played the mug like a fiddle and reeled him in.
