I'm sure there will be waivers for crowds of people in the street for "peaceful" "non-violent" protests. The authorities never seem to be very concerned about those folks wearing masks or even maintaining social distancing.
What is she doing about the homeless beggars and street urchins?
This is a real problem .
March 2017 a female was stabbed 9 times by a homeless man looking to steal anything he could get his hands on. He broke into her apartment in the middle of the night. While she was sleeping. This is a real problem.

One good thing about all this BS is it gives people to see what their elected officials actually believe. The question is: Will they remember it when it comes time to vote?

That's funny.
Many people are like my brother-in-law. He's Union so if a candidate's platform is:
1) Eliminate the 1st & 2 Amendment 2) Give $50,000 to each black person in the country for reparations 3) All babies up to 2 years old can be aborted 4) Ensure all Union workers get a 25% pay increase 5) Open borders
All he'll see is number 4 and won't give a chit about the other remaining.
If it was hit between the eyes with a 40 gr ballistic tip, at 3500 fps, would it really disintegrate so there would not be ballistic evidence? Asking for a friend.
I do not listen to today's country, anything newer than 15-20 years ago is not Country. There are a very few exceptions, but today, it's all crap. Doesn't surprise me on bit Nashville would go leftard.

My dad has a story from the late 70's. He liked to drink and fight as a young man. Moved to Nashville and the second week he gets into a drunken brawl in a bar. Cops come and pick him up. They took him to the city library in through a side door sat him down at a table and told him he was having his "hearing" right then. He said a guy is street clothes told him he was a "judge" and his fine was $100 payable now. Dad had just got paid and had the money. He said he paid the guy and got pushed out the side door of the library haha. No receipt
Just seen a blurb they are handing out citations for mask B.S. on TV.

Then we had liberal female mayor ,cut our twice a week garbage pick up to once a week to save money.A service we need and pay for ,saved nothing .She used that money to give to artist to paint life size horses Psychedelic colors ,and put them all over the city ,and other projects to pretty up the town ,she was in that crowd ,wasted our tax money instead of on essential services it was originally meant for. that is what liberals do.Dont get me started on what the liberal Lexington Gov. has been doing lately,..GGrrrrrr

Private' Refugee Resettlement Agencies Mostly Funded by the GovernmentFacebookTwitterRedditLinkedInEmailCopy LinkPrint
By Nayla Rush on August 10, 2018
The U.S. refugee resettlement program involves a number of processes, some overseas and others on the domestic front.
Inside the United States, nine non-governmental organizations work with, and are funded by, the Department of State to resettle refugees. These religious or community-based organizations referred to as voluntary agencies (or volags) help resettled refugees with the following: reception upon arrival; support with housing, food, and clothing; community orientation; English lessons, enrollment in various benefits and welfare programs; referral to social service providers (including health care, employment), etc.
Some of these organizations' leaders have been calling on President Trump to increase the refugee resettlement ceiling to 75,000 for FY2019. Their commitment to helping refugees is undoubtedly guided by good intentions; it is, however, important to keep in mind that, for these organizations, lower resettlement admissions mean less federal funding.
For this post, I looked at two things: The share of their budget coming from government funding and the salary of their Director/President/CEO. Blogger Ann Corcoran carried out a similar exercise a year or so ago.
I used the most recent publically available Form 990 federal tax returns (some were from 2016, others 2015). I also retrieved, when possible, financial data from the organizations' websites.
The full details are below, but here's a summary of what I found:
These volags are funded, for the most part, by the U.S. government. Government funding ranges from a low of 58.5 percent to a high of 97.3 percent. (Some services provided, and government funds received, by these organizations may be non-refugee-related.)Yearly compensations for the heads of these organizations range from a low of $132,000 to a high of $671,749.
The nine volags are:
Church World Service (CWS) (religious)
Episcopal Migration Ministries (EMM) (religious)
Ethiopian Community Development Council (ECDC)
Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society (HIAS) (religious)
International Rescue Committee (IRC)
Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Services (LIRS) (religious)
U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants (USCRI)
United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) (religious)
World Relief Corporation (WR) (religious)
Church World Service (CWS)

Episcopal Migration Ministries (EMM)
Churches do not have to file 990 forms; there were none filed for this volag. No financial data, either, was accessible on their website. But Corcoran found that they were 99.5 percent funded by the federal government.
According to an Episcopal News Service 2017 post, "EMM receives very little money from the church-wide budget, instead receiving 99.5 percent of its funding from the federal government. Its main office is housed at the Episcopal Church Center in New York. Stevenson [Mark Stevenson, EMM's director] has said that 90 percent of the contract money directly goes to resettling refugees. EMM retains about $2 million for administrative costs, including all national staff salaries. Any unused money goes back to the government."
No data available regarding the financial compensation of EMM's director.
