Louisiana GOP Gov. Jeff Landry has declared a state of emergency due to a police officer shortage

Louisiana GOP Gov. Jeff Landry has declared a state of emergency due to a police officer shortage.

Landry’s executive order issued Thursday lifts limits on how many new employees Louisiana sheriffs can hire and on payroll increases for their departments.

Landry, who previously had a career in law enforcement, said that police departments in the state are experiencing record-low employments “resulting in increased crime and less public safety.” As of July, sheriff’s offices statewide were down 1,800 deputies, Landry said.

    Yeah yeah everyone blames the British. Entire region has been madness and war for over 20 centuries.

    But do go on and tell me how your school shooting machine is going to protect us all against a fucking drone targetted via satellites. Hey when that whole kids in cages thing was going down why didn’t you use your school shooter to free those kids?

      I was refering to tbe mongols, Baghdad house of wisdom my beloved.

      Also I aint calling for use of firearms against the US military thats suicidal. Im calling for the use of firearms against shistain neo-nazi marching into cities and the cops if they try protecting them. It worked during the union wars to teach scabs, sheriffs, and pinkertons their place.

      Also id of loved to storm one of those border patrol prisons and gun down those sonsofbitches, but sadly enthusiasm an army does not make. Part of the reason I call for increased armament is because I hope to see the resurrection of groups like the first black panthers, the anti-bund militias, and the old union militias. But my reach is limited since im just a random leftwing SoCal redneck in fucking San Bernardino, I am surrounded by dipshits who would welcome the fucking nazis.
