By Steve Pomper There are too many police incidents where loud, cop-haters dislike the force police have used, including lethal. They condemn the officers involved for not doing “something else.” However, they rarely offer what something else should have been. But they are very emphatic about the cop being wrong, so I guess that’s supposed to be Read more »
By Steve Pomper Laura Ingraham, FOX News Channel The Minneapolis Police Department’s (MPD) shattered 3rd Precinct stands uninhabited as a disgraceful monument to the radical leftist’s 2020 national anti-police insurrectionist violence and destruction. That sacked building alone could tell the story Laura Ingraham conveyed on a recent episode of her FOX News Channel show, The Read more »
By Steve Pomper Does Law Enforcement Need to Be Reformed Just Because Radicals Don’t Like It? No! It’s leftist “police reform” that needs reforming. But it’s tough when even good guys like Senator Tim Scott concede the language to the radicals by adopting the term “police reform.” We should not surrender any terminology to the radical left.

By Steve Pomper This is getting scary—really scary. Some people think the police staffing crises across our nation will somehow resolve itself, and things will go back to normal.

By Steve Pomper The Seattle Times has not been particularly cop friendly for a long time. Consider, in 2020, as reported by Jason Rantz at 770 KTTH Radio, “Left-wing Seattle Times reporter Mike Carter forwarded and legitimized a vicious smear against police officers and their supporters, referring to the ‘Thin Blue Line’ flag as a ‘symbol of white Read more »
By Steve Pomper “Bond-villain” George Soros is not sorry, or even having second thoughts, about funding ultra-leftist prosecutors like Alvin Bragg (New York City), Kim Foxx (Chicago), Larry Krasner (Philadelphia), and George Gascon (Los Angeles) for all the devastation they’ve inflicted on American communities. Instead, according to the New York Post, Soros “vows he won’t stop Read more »
By Steve Pomper It wasn’t only that agencies are firing law enforcement officers based on (I’ll be kind) dubious “science.” It’s that the officers’ experience, qualifications, conscience, and concerns didn’t matter at all. Rather than the health of employees, it seems to have become about “comply or else.” Damn the future consequences intended and unintended. Read more »
By Steve Pomper I was first made aware of this deplorable incident when I saw a tweet from the NPA’s own Sgt. Betsy Brantner Smith. She said, “Nevada Circuit Judge Erika Ballou needs to resign for her racist, anti-police, anti-justice rhetoric in the courtroom.” Many agree with her. Sgt. Smith is right and then some.

By Steve Pomper There are so many side issues that arise when law enforcement agencies cannot retain or recruit good officers: New York, Philly, Baltimore; Chicago, St. Louis, Minneapolis; San Francisco, Portland, Seattle—and Boston all suffer from staffing shortages. One side issue, for example, is there’s word the Seattle Police Department (SPD) will end their nationally Read more »
By Steve Pomper It’s a sign of Joe Biden’s moral (or immoral) center that the one time he keeps a promise, rather than tells a lie, is to punish law enforcement officers.
