 More Stories on The Results of Police Reforms
Cities across the country continue to report increases in shootings and killings since the pandemic began. Shootings and homicides, which dipped during the initial lock-down phase of the pandemic, are now rising at alarmingly high rates.

We can thank those liberal mayors who instead of supporting the police, allowed the police budgets to be cut amid growing calls for police reform and the prominence of the "defund the police" movement amid BLM protests, following the killing of George Floyd.


We can thank those city counsels who accused their police forces of systemic racism and incited violence against police.

We can thank those media outlets who have purposely driven a false narrative that all police are systemically racist when study after study after study has shown otherwise.

We can thank Liberal leaders who pulled their plain clothes police officers off the streets, limited policing in the most dangerous neighborhoods and released criminals during the virus.

We can thank the courts, who have been "emptying out the prisons" or instituted terrible bail reforms that have achieved the same thing. This must certainly has led to a feeling among offenders that they can commit crimes with impunity.

In addition, I'm sure we can even thank the police, who in some cities, are less proactive in their enforcement duties in order to avoid interactions with the public that could spread the virus, or just keep a low profile in order to stay safe.

Spirits are low, in many departments. In many cities, officers are putting in their papers and retiring. The Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Police Union said in a press release that 71% of the members it surveyed are considering leaving MPD. Of those, almost 40% are planning to leave law enforcement entirely.

 The Fours is auctioning off more than 1,000 items of sports memorabilia
After 44 years serving as one of Boston’s most notable sports bars, The Fours accrued an impressive collection of sports memorabilia before it announced its closing in August.
“It has been our honor to call the City of Champions our home,” management said in a closing statement. “We have the best fans. Period. Thank you for making The Fours part of your traditions over the years.”
The Fours may be gone, but its memory — and its collectibles — certainly won’t be forgotten. Fans of the bar can now bring part of it home with them on December 3 and 4, when more than 1,000 items from its sports collection will be sold at a public online auction.

 Brittanies in the Field and Home
How the little spaniel from France developed into the wildly popular versatile hunting dog.
 
I have owned four Brittany's through the years, they are a high energy, intelligent dog that requires both mental and physical stimulation on a regular basis. They are happy dogs, with a willingness to please. They enjoy spending time with their owners, are curious and playful. They love to snuggle up with their owners as much as they love to run in the outdoors or hunt.
​

Being a highly intelligent dog, you will find this particular breed among the easiest of all dogs to train.  It makes them a great choice for people looking for a dog that is both part of the family, or getting outdoors for a run. They are also the perfect fit for those seeking an all-purpose hunting partner for bird hunting.
