- 1Posted by CircuitGuy 9 years, 11 months agoYes. I agree with that. I got the idea, although I can'tell for sure, that he has a broad definition of "attacking the police." I suspect he thinks my opinions that the police should not use what I consider militaristic approaches, should mostly patrol their own neighborhoods and interact with the people they're protecting, and should be given few laws to enforce strictly to be "attacking" the police.Mark as read | Parent | Best of... | Permalink|
- 1Posted by $ blarman 9 years, 11 months agoI've followed his economics and commentaries for years now and he strikes me more like a realist. His past columns have focused on how government oppresses blacks through minimum wage laws, housing policies, etc. I really don't see him as a social justice type or a government apologist either.Mark as read | Parent | Best of... | Permalink|
