(Their fixation with gender bending is a close second.)<\/p>\n<p>It would honestly do them a lot of good to just stop discussing the issue altogether. You can see it on their faces how hard it is to articulate simple concepts like, \u201ccriminals should be in jail,\u201d or, \u201cpolice deserve respect.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>They would rather complicate the issue by talking about the history of slavery, \u201cdisadvantaged communities,\u201d and \u2014 my favorite \u2014 systemic oppression. <\/p>\n<p>All the data show that across the board, regardless of race, the overwhelming majority of police and civilian interactions <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2021\/09\/14\/do-not-let-wendy-osefo-of-real-housewives-explain-race-and-police-to-your-children\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">are fine<\/a>; that minorities call on cops for help at a far higher rate than whites; and that the chance of an unarmed black man being killed by police is <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/05\/12\/black-prosecutor-brings-no-charges-against-cop-who-killed-amir-locke-doesnt-get-called-white-supremacist\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">next to nonexistent<\/a> (and when such an incident does occur, it\u2019s because he was resisting arrest or attempting to flee in <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/07\/06\/jayland-walker-was-not-an-unarmed-black-man\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">a life-threatening, high-speed chase<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>But liberals refuse to leave it alone, instead writhing in pain as they try to find some existential problem with our law enforcement.<\/p>\n<p>To wit, New York Times columnist-in-training Charles Blow wrote <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2022\/07\/27\/opinion\/maga-trump-police.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Wednesday<\/a> that former president Trump and his voters aren\u2019t genuine supporters of the police\u2014okay, whatever you say. But Blow couldn\u2019t make the point without first offering a winding, tedious lecture on the theory of policing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn a system of accountability and consequences, there must be first points of contact, people who are charged with preventing and stopping the rule breaking,\u201d he prattled. \u201cIn our society, those people are police officers. Their role, in the abstract, is essential. However, the way that we have constructed it is problematic.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Recall Missouri Democrat Rep. Cori Bush, a champion of zeroing out police budgets, last year attempting to explain why she spends <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2021\/08\/05\/safety-for-me-but-not-for-thee-rep-cori-bush-justifies-her-private-security-before-demanding-to-defund-the-police\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">hundreds of thousands of dollars on private, armed security<\/a>. \u201cI have private security because my body is worth being on this planet right now,\u201d she said, somehow, without laughing. \u201cI have private security because they, the white supremacist, racist narrative that they drive into this country\u2014 the fact that they don\u2019t care that this black woman that has put her life on the line\u2014 they can\u2019t match my energy, first of all. This black woman who puts her life on the line. They don\u2019t care that I could be taken out of here. They actually are probably okay with that. But this is the thing, I won\u2019t let them get that off. You can\u2019t get that off.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That is a direct transcript of what she said on national television.<\/p>\n<p>Listening to Democrats talk about law enforcement is like watching that \u201cIn Living Color\u201d skit with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=f9aQ5q4jZvE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Oswald Bates character<\/a>, a prisoner who confidently uses a slew of multisyllabic words that ultimately mean nothing, but he thinks he\u2019s smart for using them anyway.
