If you recall...
quote:

“We should always evaluate the risks and benefits of efforts to control the virus,” Jennifer Nuzzo, a Johns Hopkins epidemiologist, tweeted on Tuesday. “In this moment the public health risks of not protesting to demand an end to systemic racism greatly exceed the harms of the virus.”


So it would make sense they add riot relief to this spending bill.

I don't want tax dollars paying for rioting and looting, I want the rioters and looters to pay for it.

$10 million for Pakistan for Gender Programs. Money to Democratic cities who let their cities be destroyed. I can't believe Trump agreed to this

I’d put them in a yard turning big rocks into little ones for decades.

This bill really should be the start of the revolution. It's outrageous

If you are a business owner in one of these cities that saw rioting and looting, and that city had a mayor that refused to allow police to put an end to it, you should already be suing the city and the mayor.

I’d rather use the money to build new jails and prosecutors for the rioters.

Legal precedent says that the cops aren’t required to respond to a complaint.

Where this should put liability on the city / state is when they refuse to respond but threaten any business owner who protects their property.

The cops won’t do their jobs and they’ll be goddamned if anyone else does it for them!

There were literally mayors who refused to allow police to do their job. That is a mayor who failed to uphold law and order and protect the safety and lives of law abiding citizens.

Is why there needs to be line item veto authority, especially for appropriations bills.

I bet you $100 that whoever added this gem to the bill has a family members who run a gender studies consulting firm that will win the bid to provide their services to Pakistan.

They did. What they didn’t tell you is that their insurance was your paycheck.
