    This makes the case for gun control a whole lot harder to make, no? If you can't rely on the police to protect you ...https://twitter.com/odonnell_r/status/1240023290988691459 …

        I have numerous LAPD friends. Recently they’ve said police weren’t arresting people they would’ve in the past because there’s no punishment and they just get released. They don’t want to risk a physical arrest where the liberal government turns on them and side with criminals

        The only ones who will be arrested are those who try to operate a business that the governor has declared to be shutdown.

        It's one thing to reprioritize, but to announce it is effectively endorsing it

        That will show up again when the next right-to-carry lawsuit happens in that state.
