To pablum-fed, thought-stopped conservatives, ever case where police act to protect in the service of their unearned privileges is acceptable. This is why they clammor for states rights, at the tax-paid expense of the rest of us.
They have behaved this way from time imemoriam to the present. This is why they h-a-t-e-d anti-lynch laws and refused to enact them, for instance, because they have a visceral, overemotional reaction to the idea of Blacks committing the same crime a white does.
The have dhimmitude mentality.
So, yeah. /
Don’t tie post-WWII conservatism to those who refused to pass anti-lynching laws in the 1920’s. It’s a very different thing politically and devoted to freedom, not repression.
