Presidential [PRESS] Conference with - Eric Bare 🦅🇺🇸🦅 2021

Great question first of all I think that the police should not be defunded if anything they should get more money but the US military should be parallel with what the police are being paid it should be more of any quality

If anything should be defunded and done away with is the police union The police union is the organization that tolerated 17 counts of police for Tolerated from that one Police officer that killed George Floyd.

So I am not in favor of defunding the police I am in favor of respecting the police until the system is changed

So when we talk about police officers abuse sometimes we talk about the minorities of people and how that police officers abuse them and then we talk about privilege and white privilege what do you think about white privilege

So the first time I heard about white privilege was from a white female coworker at work and she said when I told her the story I’m gonna tell you oh that’s some white privilege

no matter what country you’re from people that have money spoil their kids way too much I have raised three daughters I give them money from time to time I’m not a rich man but I think the best way is to be supportive in your family but don’t give your kids everything      .... a brand new car in high school or college ??????                         that should be something that they earn !!!!                       not that mommy and daddy gave to them ?!?!?! I think that’s terrible no matter who you are to spoil your children and just give them a life of ease which gives them a life of laziness I don’t care what your race is and there’s plenty of people that are Islamic Latino white black whatever that spoiler kids way too much !!!!

Here’s the story so I’m driving 95 to 100 up to 95 going northbound towards Vegas heading to a small town called searchlight I had driven for a while and I was tired hungry had to do a pitstop for myself and get some gas for the car So I was kind of hurrying but not really just kind of enjoying the speed and the radio When I got to Searchlight it decreases pretty significantly and I didn’t decrease with those sign warnings and I was going 95 in a 45 As I hit the crest of a hill there was an officer right there put on the lights and I have all these brakes and my car is really responsive so I just pulled over it’s a little Mustang And the officer said do you know why I stopped you and I said yeah I think I missed that transition and he said yeah you did by 50 miles an hour After he got my credentials and headed back to his car the prayer I prayed was dear Lord I pray I can pick up my kids and Vegas and I pray I don’t go to jail He came back to my car with another officer and I thought for sure this is not going to be good He handed me a ticket and my license and said have a nice day I wrote you a ticket for wasting the environment I was confused I said wasting the environment I don’t know what that is Well sir you were driving over the speed limit and you were wasting their environment I said well I don’t understand The officer interrupted me and said look I didn’t write your ticket for speeding and I didn’t write you one for no seatbelt and I didn’t write you one for driving without shoes I like the color of your car and I like the American flag on your shirt And you were really respectful and didn’t try to outrun the car I gave him a big smile and said thank you And as he pulled away I looked up and said thank you, Jesus Sticking with the thought of white privilege I’ve worked in factories for $3.35 an hour I’ve been laid off multiple times in my life I’ve been fired before from jobs there’s plenty of miss treatment that I’ve gone through I know that some people go through situations that are racially motivated but on the flip side, there have been many times where people just flat out didn’t like me and they were motivated by that too so I think a lot of it has to do with acceptance.

According to the news, Trump supporters appreciate his withdrawal from the climate agreement, the fact that he opens the door for anti-abortion laws, and also his nationalism. The reporters always add somehing about the society being polarized. As if the two sides both have only minor, comparable flaws, as if they are both relevant partners in an articulate discussion. When an authoritarian, a sexual predator, racist, sociopathic businessman (and an unsuccessful one) and a liar is in office, when someone with this much power paves the way for fascism in so many fronts, it is necessary to stand in opposition to those who help him succeed. No need for appeasement. The reasons Trump voters support him are the same reasons why more and more groups of people feel threatened - or, more specifically, are no loger safe in the US. If he stays in office, the task of the opposition won't be to de-polarize society, but to fight tooth and nail against growing racism, homophobia, misogyny and authoritarianism. By all means.

Trumpovi podporovatelé podle reportérů oceňují hlavně to, že díky němu USA odstoupily od klimatické dohody, že otevírá dveře protipotratovým zákonům, a taky jeho nacionalismus. Jedním dechem v podobných reportážích vždycky zaznívají povzdechy o rozdělené společnosti. Jako by snad obě strany měly jen svoje drobné nedostatky a obě strany zároveň byly relevantními partnery do diskuze v rukavičkách. Když je někdo autoritář, sexuální predátor, rasista, asociální (a ještě k tomu neúspěšný) byznysmen a lhář, když někdo uvolňuje cestu fašizaci na tolika frontách, je na místě se vyhranit proti těm, kdo s ním tu cestičku metou. Smířlivosti netřeba. Důvody Trumpových voličů, proč ho volit, jsou zároveň důvody, kvůli kterým se čím dál víc skupin lidí v USA necítí bezpečně - nebo přesněji, kvůli kterým čím dál tím víc lidí reálně JE v nebezpečí. Jestli zůstane v úřadu, nebude úkolem opozice "nerozdělovat společnost", ale zuby nehty bránit pokračujícímu rasismu, homofobii, misogynii a autoritářství. Všemi prostředky.
