Safety Is The Best Political Slogan
In the last six months, because police brutality has created so much social unrest and incited demonstrations all over the United States, especially in Portland and Seattle, many people went to the streets and burned police stations and interrupted local businesses and attacked the security personnel.
The President wanted to use more U.S. military force to calm down the rioting, but the Secretary of Defense refused to do it.
For a lot of ordinary citizens and small businesses, a peaceful environment with security and safety is really needed to do business.
A bill creating a task force to study how reparations could be implemented statewide has passed in the California Assembly. If this bill becomes law, that will have a big influence on American politics.
The President is using the social safety issue to try and gain support from those voters who have become very tired of all the community unrest.
Democratic challenger Vice President Biden really needs to face this problem. The 2020 election is coming in less than two months. Our future depends on a leader who can help us with today’s problems and lead us into the future.
川普總統打安定牌
近月來,全國各地由於警察射殺黑人事件,大小城市示威不斷,而且上演擄搶燒火事件, 尤其是西雅圖波特蘭,更有暴徒劃地為營,火燒警察局,長期佔領街道,商家無法营業 ,造成對社會治安嚴重影響。
川普總統多次要動用更多之軍人來平息動亂,但遭國防部長埃斯特之反對而作罷,各地暴亂有其長久以來之因素,黑人被歧視,尤其警察長期以來對他們施暴已是不爭之事實,許多不良少年及犯罪份子因缺乏家庭及學校教育,輟學後又無一技之長,當面对生活現實情況,只有偷竊、販毒維生,因而造成了嚴重的社會問題。
對一般平民百姓而言,社會治安非常重要,做點小生意也需要安定之社區環境, 如果每天不是被偷就是被搶,日子怎么過下去!
最近加州議會通過給予黑人之賠償,雖未簽署為法,但此舉將會衝擊政府財政及對其他族裔之公平性。
大選在即民主黨如何處理這些棘手問題有待觀察,但共和黨打出社會安定牌將會爭取一些選民支持。
我們的民主選舉已經早變味了,為了爭取选民,大家都在演戱,尤其面對大眾及媒體,幕前及幕後可以說兩種不同的選舉語言,只要得到選票,違背良心又如何呢 ?
