Cori Bush and Private Security
« on: August 05, 2021, 03:14:29 PM »
Cori Bush on why she deserves private security while you and I don't, all while she calls for police defunding. Basically, "I'm important, so shut up and suck it up".

At the link, she talks about the white racists and white racist cops out to kill her.

I can't tell if she honestly thinks she's so valuable to the American population that she needs more security than anybody else or she is too stupid to realize that not everybody can afford 70K for private security, but she didn't address the hypocrisy question very well.  Further on in the video the hosts followed up on her claim that Police Officers had threatened her life.  She kind of brushed it off ("they're people too") but I would think that kind of puts her rhetoric in question when she makes a claim like that but can't back it up.

By the way, did anybody else get the impression from her delivery that she was very close to saying "I'm doing the Lord's work"?
The feral government is the only group in the known universe that can promulgate a 26-page form that collects two pages of information accompanied by 24 pages of incoherent instructions, and proclaim at the bottom of page 26 that the document complies with the paperwork reduction act.

It's fistfuls fault.

She claims that she has had (that's past tense, meaning already happened) "attempts" (plural) on her life.

I want dates, times, places, and specifics.

It's all in the spin

THERE it is! Politico spin on Cori Bush’s call to defund the police while having private security takes a predictable turn

She put her life on the line? That's so cute.

Dear Ms. Bush... I live about 75 yards from the site of one of last year's bodies... I have an idea. Let's go for a walk around the neighborhood. Should I leave the bad evil gun at home?

By attempts she means somebody said something that hurt her feelings on the Internet.

Well it does take her a good 30 minutes for her to be driven from mansion to another.

STRAIGHT Into Our VEINS: House Democrat Under Investigation CONFIRMED as Squad Member Cori Bush

I'm not holding my breath on anything coming of this. More than likely if anything does she'll get nothing more than a slap on the hand and made to promise to keep it a secret better next time.

One interesting thing is that Bush has competition from another SJW in the form of St. Louis County prosecutor Wesley Bell.
And, St. Louis Mayor Jones has not said whether she will support Bush this fall.

I keep calling the local pest control companies, but they say they're not licensed to deal with commies.

That may because they have been so "indoctrinated" and for so long a time that they have lost the ability to think rationally or use deductive reasoning.
