Case in point. . .which explains a lot.

How many should get mugged before intervention is deemed necessary?
Intervention can already be done by police. There is no need for intervention by "federal takeover", whatever that is supposed to mean.

Aren't you guys super-offended by "virtue-signalling"?
Putting on a show of empathy is virtue signaling. A group going on and on ad infinitum about how much empathy they have is like the apex of virtue signaling.

Then you should be happy that people are now telling you their lack of virtue, no?

No one is doing that. Along with claiming how much empathy and virtue they have, they claim those not on their side lack virtue and empathy and are fascists racists etc. It's all a lot of silly nonsense that adds to the Democrat party and the extreme liberalism they attached themselves to, becoming less and less popular.

With all due respect, I suspect no one who strongly dislikes Trump will accept any rational. Even though a few weeks earlier a congressional intern was shot and killed in DC. Want a cite? Congressional intern killed in Washington, DC shooting: Officials .

Try me, what is the rational?
You have cited a case of murder in D.C.
Is there any connection between these crimes?
Is there a criminal consipiracy to target anyone associated with the Federal Government?

What is argument for bringing in resources from FBI, ATF, etc?

If you don't know what it means, why are you opposed to it?

And therein is the problem.

Democrats are pretty good at that as well
The Democrats are more right of centre, where republicans are far right. Both are conservative.

You are correct, when one succeeds the other, the first thing they do is imitate what they hated the other doing.

Yet another area wherein President Trump seeks to usurp the Constitutionally mandated authority of Congress, what’s not to love!?
Fear not. . .there are legal remedies if that is true.

Not to mention the issue of being in favor of "soft on crime."
it's more keeping a crappy overzealous police force in check and that gets passed off as soft on crime. If they won't win a case they won't prosecute.


That's what happenned after all the blm riots

That’s right, Congress could sue President Trump (in his official capacity), which wouldn’t affect the relationship between those two parties, one iota.

Congress means to come together. Progress means to walk forward. People can walk forward together.

Yes so how does "con" in one word mean something different in another word?

Yooo hoo, anyone study Latin?

late Middle English (denoting an encounter during battle): from Latin congressus, from congredi ‘meet’, from con- ‘together’ + gradi ‘walk’.

But

Middle English: from Anglo-Norman French contrarie, from Latin contrarius, from contra ‘against’.

It is peculiar that "con" means together but just ad "tra" and we have opposition,

In Latin, "tra" is a shortened form of the prefix "trans-," which primarily means "across," "beyond," or "through." It indicates movement or a state of being on the other side of something. It can also imply a complete change or transformation.
