Where Biden At?

 We know he's know he's not at the southern border, addressing the defensive breach there putting unaccompanied minor children at risk by permitting them to enter the United States from impoverished Central America countries via Mexico...

In nights past, we saw some... extra-curricular justice, mob style.  Even though a prosecutor from a neighboring county brought charges in a court of law, a lynch mob arrived at the home of the accused threatening violence.  In 21st Century America.

It was the home of the Brooklyn Center police officer who allegedly mistook her Taser for her service weapon when arresting a 20-year-old man on a warrant issued early this month for possessing an unregistered handgun and running from police.  The suspect did not make his initial court appearance, court records show, and the arrest warrant was routinely issued...

The young man's social media posts show the high school dropout flashing benjamins, and posing.  His mother said the family babied him and the boy's poor judgment likely made him try to run from police, again. At best, the boy-child (legally a man) did not understand the consequences of not appearing in the court of law to answer charges, where his misdemeanor arrest warrants were issued, earlier this month. 

His parents will likely be monetarily compensated for the officer's fatal error.  It won't bring her son back. Someday now, she will likely be getting the tags in the mail to attach to the vehicle, and the hard copy of the insurance card to ride in the glovebox of the vehicle, so the driver who might not have the insurance app on his phone to prove compliance, can easily show license, insurance and registration.

Some parents don't let their children -- black or white -- drive until those paperwork type things are taken care of.  Some parents don't buy their children cars until they prove they are responsible, at home, school, in the workplace, etc.  Some parents are not keen to become grandparents who are tasked with raising the next generation too, because the young parents themselves are just not ready without significant outside help.

Perhaps, in retrospect, we should not jump the gun and rely on the infallibility of others to keep us safe.  Better to let privileges accrue to those adults who can afford them, independently.

Portions of the American Democratic population look to this president to console, to use his jumble of words to heal.  He should speak out against the professional "protestors" now amassing in Minnesota, and those who chased the officer from her home.  This really is why people cling to guns, and so many no longer rely on the government to protect their property, homes, families and lives.

An eye for any eye is blinding. Even in coarse black-and-white world, can't you see that?
