  1. Kyle Rittenhouse is a hero

    With the BLM rants and violence

    no one should be a cop now

    issue extra Ammo to each law abiding home owner, and let them deal with the streets

  2. The great part for all cops is they all get to use High-Powered Hollow-Point ammo. This is such a devastating round that it is banned for use in war. I for one am glad our cops get to use killing ammo on thugs!
