    Well bless your little heart,with today’s inflation that ought to be about a buck fifty.

    What cha think about not allowing police wearing tactical gear in ice cream shops,sense the only thing you have contributed so far is justifying a false narrative and promoting toxic little plastic bricks that are doing their part to destroy the planet?

    I am going to write a book about the wonderful little bottles filled with round up to sit next to my Advantageous of lead fillings, book.

    Edit : forgot to add the little

    That's nice...

    Next time you touch your computer keyboard, or kitchen utensils, or a million other things... remember it's made of the same ABS plastic as LEGO. Kinda surprised you didn't Google it before you went off on your slippery slope logic fallacy...

    lol counter a perceived slippery slope logic fallacy with a - wait for it ——- slippery slope logic fallacy.

    Just because everybody else is doing it,does not make it right.

    And ya still got nothing about ice cream and tactical gear or maybe you are also confused as to what the article referred to and are still defending the false narrative that it read - body armor that you supported.

    At the very least you could offer up some advice as to how to remove ice cream stains from tactical gear,maybe use the edge of a Lego to scrape the bulk off then dab it gently with some __________ .

    I will make it easy for you,all you have to do is fill in the blank,maybe Google it?

    If you take your grandkids to DC, be sure to avoid that Comet pizzeria. You know, the ones the Dems use as a child abuse den in the basement.

    Maybe have your gdaughter pack up the "little" AR-15 you bin wet dreamin’ about.

    ^ as much as it triggers you she does have a constitutional right to do that,in case you have not noticed,in this country we are not that quick to lay down when the government chooses to strip us of our rights on a whim.

    What about Canada ? Are people traumatized when they see officers in tactical gear?

    Price comparison shows it is double the price of what is available in the U.S.

    You know,just in case you are actually interested in participating in the actual discussion.

    I am traumatized by fat people dressed in spandex or miniature speedos while out in the public,can we ban them?

    Some people are traumatized by tourists wearing black socks and sandals at the beach.

    We have a country of 350 million,there would be nothing left if everybody eliminated everything they were personally traumatized by.

    I guess it is about messaging and how it is interpreted ,kinda like the man who won the state woman’s beauty contest.

    Is the message being sent there that men are better then woman at everything,including being a woman ?

    Well, if she can open carry and protect herself, who needs police and guards when your 8 yr old can do the job. Fill her with donuts instead of ice cream.

    Teach her about toppling the capitol to reinstate Chump, the wannabe dick-tator. If you didn’t like your governor’s policies, groom her to kidnap him/her on a whim.

    ^ Traditional Liberalism has been hi-jacked at this point. More are finding it harder to swallow-whole the shifting ideologies, and follow [fall-into-line] the far left roads w/o questioning the blatant hypocrisy and contradictions. Thus, why more are moving towards Independent to sort the madness of both extremes [far left and right]. At a point basic reason demands this.

    In the meantime most businesses will probably benefit from having cordial relationships with law enforcement dropping by for an eat or drink.

    Ah the "pox on both houses" argument. You have the seditious former president, the group who claims the election was stolen without a shred of proof and now the Christian Evangelical court insisting that everyone live by a set of Christian values in a country that isn't supposed to make preference for any belief system. Those libs though are crazyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

    I would also like to point out that through many of the comments on this thread the implication is that the police WONT do their jobs as paid because this business has come out as critical of the police. Have any of you actually taken the time to consider that? Criticize the cops and they may not show up as quickly to your emergency as others. And you wonder why there is any backlash towards police officers when you have all but accepted that the outcome of being critical is probably poorer service. It makes you wonder what other biases or retributive acts that law enforcement may practice... hmmm...

    Police has no duty to protect - makes it irrelevant

    libs are crazy because they base their counter arguments in what they think it should be verses what the facts say.

    Did I say protect or to fulfill their duties? Choosing your own word makes your post irrelevant.

    So sayeth the conspiracy theorist. Most of your nonsense has no basis in facts. Maybe sit this one out or better yet, scour the internet for proof of your conspiracy theories and report back. Then we can have a discussion based on facts.

    ^ all you did was verify that you posted words based on what you think happened and not facts,then diverted by calling others conspiracy theorist.

    Good job.

    The ice cream shop made it clear it does not want the police on property.

    The police has no duty to protect the shop.

    but yet you wonder what other biased,retribution practices that LEO may have performed,when none of them would even apply in this case.

    I am surprised more are posting here considering the commy hipster get together in the Colorado mountains that is supposed to be in the 10s of thousands.

    Right. Shop posts about not serving those in body armor or tactical gear, conservatives extrapolate to it hating all police, say that it’s not a “good idea” to upset them, then claim the police don’t need to serve them. What am I missing here?

    i wondered because the scenario you laid out can apply to a wide range of things if that’s the expected behavior.

    isn’t ice cream a bit below you? Shouldn’t you be out looking for a teenager to incarcerate because she seeks an abortion?

    You shouldn’t be worried about police coming to your rescue.
    According to you, you are able, willing and equipped to deal with danger. Youguy keep insisting on putting it down to personal responsibility. Tit for tat.

    That is where the confusion comes in,you are basing your whole counter point on it is the job of the police to protect me.

    Its not their job,nor is it required of them,their job is to respond,they cannot follow you everywhere you go in order to protect you and there are not enough of them to assign one to every citizen.

    You keep making it out like I am some strange anomaly in a country of 350 million because I understand that the only person on this earth that can protect you - is you.

    It is a fact,if you wish to remain a soft target that is on you,as a parent who bears the ultimate responsibility to protect your children ?

    If you cannot who else can?

    The ice cream shop is going to end up like countless other businesses and restaurants that have been robbed in the past,they call 911 and by the time police arrive the employees are shot and stacked up in the cooler,the only thing the police can do is investigate,the time to save you is long gone.

    The homicide clearance rate in the City Of Detroit is 15%,I understand in Canada you have the right as a citizen,subject to change in a whims notice,to live, but in the United States you also have a right to live and protect your family and not become a statistic.

    In case you have not noticed there is a certain political party in this country that spends every waking moment looking for enemies they can save you from and be the hero.

    Ever notice they are not in the line of fire and most of them are surrounded by private security at the cost of millions of taxpayer dollars,even years after they are out of office?

    Do you think any one of them can be counted on to sit outside of your door and protect your family while you sleep.

    You do not have to like scary guns,or scary police dressed up in scary clothing so they can live if they are called on to save you from the bad guy.

    You just have to understand the role they play.

    I do not like Fords,but yet they are everywhere because the world does not exist or revolve around what I personally like or dislike.

    In case you have not noticed every time the people you relate to and put in power,gain power,we have record gun sales in this country.

    Because that is what you guys do,create fear so you can protect people from very animals that you create just so you can be the hero and save everybody.

    Its not a gun problem,it’s a locust problem.

    Because that is what commies,socialists,”democratic socialists” and progressives or whatever other color of lipstick they put in the pig to make it look like it is not a pig,base their very existence on,disrupting society to the point where they as the government can step into every part of your life in order to control it and you will thank them for doing so.

    That is why you cannot stand our constitution

    It’s the one thing that stands in your way.

    You can get a ticket for not putting your seat belt on,because it will save your life,but when it comes to any other method,like a gun that can save your life,they want to strip that from you so the only thing you have left is the ability to drop to your knees in front of a thug and pray.

    Dick is back at it. Making up more Bullshit. He’s also insulting the crap out of the Detroit Police Department with his BS made up garbage statistics making them look incompetent. Ironic.

    ^ even your own link reads “depending on who you ask”

    The homicide clearance rate is calculated by figuring the percentage of closed homicide cases compared to homicides committed over a selected period of time.

    A case is considered "cleared" once a suspect has been identified or there is a reason that a warrant cannot be issued, for instance the suspect dies or witnesses are unwilling to cooperate.




    Although the department hasn't solved 72 percent of the killings in 2014, it's clearance rate is helped by closing cases stemming from previous years.

    https://www.mlive.com/news/detroit/2...es_cra_20.html

    older article but may help you understand how clearance rates are achieved,but do not let that stop you from creating and manipulating your narrative to fit.

    To not understand something is one thing,it is another to take something you do not understand and trying to use it in order you run a narrative of ignorance.

    Notice your pattern of if you cannot come of with anything of substance you have to resort to personal attacks and flat out lies in order to make yourself look relevant in your own little mind.

    It does not make DPD look bad,it just shows how overwhelmed they are in dealing with the chaos that your ilk creates for them.

    It is repeated across the country in the major cities that your mindset seeks to destroy while trying to push all of the good people out.

    This is not a smart decision at all by the owner. He will be calling those same police hoping that they have those same body armor if a gunman would come into his store shooting people then barricade himself inside.

    Virtue signalling. Its very important in some circles to place just the right signs in your windows. [[Think Havel's Greengrocer.)

    Cold Truth may believe banning Tactical Gear is a good idea. Its not irrational. I think its a serious mistake that harms our most vulnerable. But we all have different opinions.

    Yet there is a good chance that CT was coerced, likely by their staff. That's what seems to happen. You do support BLMatter, don't you. I'll call you out on social media if you don't show your support. Nice store you have here.
