The Joe Biden Presidency I :: Hallelujah!

I lived in the boonies from the late 60's thru 2013. Never locked the doors[*] as my home was a safe house when my kids were in HS. There are a bunch of Summer Camps in town and the young hopeful lads from neighboring towns came looking to get lucky. If they were in no condition to return home I called the parents to let them know they were spending the night. Rarely was a problem.

*I did have a Doberman!

 

It was heroin/crack related.

 

AND lead.

 

And abortion.

But Boca's point is fair. In general, we shouldn't be comparing crime rates today to our very worst day but rather to our average day.

 

Something I wrote for ages.

Detroit/NY/DC of 1983 is a much different world than those places of this year.

EDIT: Should add aging out of crime too. I don't think it's one factor, but like many things, several factors.

Hunter Biden Charged With Evading Taxes on Millions From Foreign Firms
The Justice Department charged President Biden’s son after a long-running and wide-ranging investigation with substantial political repercussions.

 

Am I wrong, or didn’t Hunter already settle tax evasion with the IRS, backpaying taxes in full but avoiding prosecution?

 

No one is above the law, amirite?

 

There's a neighborhood in Detroit known as the Cass Corridor, which was home to things like Creem, Joni Mitchell, Sixto Rodriguez, and also things like drugs, prostitution, and known for a child abduction case. You didn't go into the Cass unless you were looking for trouble or the Old Miami (The best dive bar ever).

Only time I wear headphones out and about is at an airport terminal when I'm checked in and have time to kill. It's drilled into me to not wear them in public for safety reasons. And I still feel weird putting them on in an airport terminal even though it's one of the safest places you can be.

 

He already paid the back taxes.
Weiss actually was involved in making that plea deal, and the judge struck it down because the language was too broad.

 

Which wouldn't have happened at all if the judge on the case hadn't taken the time to really look at the original deal the justice department was offering.

But sure, keep patting yourselves on the back. Hypocrites.

 

My date's eating all the fully loaded nachos. All the ones with the meat and cheese and everything, the ones that are fully loaded, she's hogging them, so I'm mostly getting just, like, just chips. Like mostly just chips, like nothing on 'em, but, like, a little bit of cheese and maybe one little nugget of meat.

 

You poor man!

 

The Biden family got $$ from foreign nationals and companies in China, Russia, Ukraine, Romania, and Kazakhstan.
So if their Russian money runs low, they have other sources.

 

Jobs keep coming:

BREAKING: The U.S. economy added another 199,000 jobs in November. New reports also indicate that more Americans are working than ever before in American history. The full power and might of America’s industrial base is on display because of President Biden’s leadership.

The reason this atrocity is allowed to happen is because Biden is corrupt.

 

Uh-huh.
