Yes, superficial indeed.
38% of white males it looks like:
This is a gain from 2016.

Normative pressure. It’s what has kept teenagers causing their parents problems for ages.
And it works

If there was any doubt before that posters in The Hive are not normative…
Which they will constantly bitch and whine about.

Have to get ready to go run an errand and didn’t click on that, but I understand the mechanics of how pernicious ideas spread. I just don’t get how people can believe the obviously stupid ones, being fairly skeptical myself. Of course one of the smartest people I know is fascinated by cryptozoology, and I realized he just enjoys life more thinking such things are possible. I’m similar in some ways, and will at least entertain the more exciting prospects before saying “Nah.” Color me Ellie Arroway in this scene, going “Da fuq?”

There needs to be a top-to-bottom cleansing of the LEOs. And don’t worry about being depleted of LEOs, we have too many as it is. And think of all the money we’ll save that we can use to fund social programs.

Insider threat is one of the hardest to mitigate for any security operation. Background checking is one element, access control is another, perhaps most important is behavior observation by peers and supervisors. Overwatch snipers would have highest level of clearance while a guardsman standing post at the outer perimeter, relatively less. This is not “fear” of insider threat, merely routine, prudent threat mitigation.

But that would deprive upwards of 75 million people the white supremacist qualities they want an LEO to have. Is that fair?

All because of that divisive Obama.
But would provide 81 million Americans with the unbiased and fair law enforcement they want.

But in a democracy the views and needs of the minority need served, the tyranny of the majority is anathema to our government. Half the nation are racists, fascists, xenophobes, homophobes, misogynists and ultra-nationalists. Their needs must be met too.
Trump will no longer have the powers of the presidency
It’s like saying a fighter pilot (not a drone-master 
), miles away from his plane, cannot strafe or missile-lock a target.

YEA, agree 1000%, why in a county that has a total of <6000 residents there is a police force of at least 3 found in every town (even in an unincorporated town of 25), 50 in the “city” of 2500 and that is just the local police. Now add in the county sheriff with a force of 25 and a state trooper barracks with 150 on staff (dedicated to exclusively patrolling the Interstate which is 25 miles north). The place I’m talking about is so small it does not even have a drunk tank holding cell. Now add in all the surplus military equipment, the county SWAT, and the separate city SWAT teams. Talk about being under siege.
ETA, and the social services staff, every single one of them in the county including the director, my sister, are on SNAP.
