The reality needs to settle in for many Americans. Our once great cities are crumbling and their leadership stand by doing nothing. Many of Russias rural provinces are terrible, but the large cities are maintained. It’s the opposite of what we see in the US.

So that justifies taking away people’s personal freedoms?

I get that the Russian govt does things we wish ours would. Tough on crime, not catering to woke nonsense etc. but to act like modern day Russia is the America we grew up with in the 70/80’s has got to be one of the dumbest things I’ve ever heard.

Geez. That was an amazing watch. Interesting to see the interviewer grilling him and the crowd quiet. Then by the end, they realize Tucker is just a normal guy who happens to be the only one with a voice who’s still speaking truth.

Yet it's parroted by so many supposed small government conservatives.

free speech and gun control have nothing to do with LEO enforcing the laws.
They also have nothing to do with blue city prosecutors refusing to prosecute.

They also have nothing to do with democrat ran catch/release programs, zero cash bail, etc.

Your folks got us into this mess. Im sorry its so hard to hear it.

It’s the closest parallel I have. People were polite, lovely really, everything was orderly. It made me aware of how much has changed here.

What's wrong with doing this?

Its been done before, and its highly effective. But that hurts the feelings of half this country.

We is welcome to stay in Russia. 30-40 years ago his plane would have disappeared on the way home.

You don’t say shite like that on foreign soil.

It’s real clean in North Korea too

Dude like I said agree with you being tough on crime etc.

My point is they have that but at the expense of personal freedoms.

There was a time where our country excelled at both. And we need to get back there.

You're trying to put Russia up as this shining example of what happens when law enforcement does their job while completely ignoring the fact that they are backed up by a justice system and a dictator that doesn't give a damn about individual freedoms. Easy to control crime when they can finger anybody they want for anything they want.

That water passed under the bridge here long ago. We have no unified culture in the US and it only gets worse day after day.
I completely understand why the Russians love their country and culture.
