“Lock him up,” Tuberville told the news website about Newsom. ”LA looks like a third world country — anarchists are in charge, law enforcement is being attacked, and the rule of law is nonexistent."

      Anarchism in practice is mostly finding perfectly good chairs in the dumpster then asking around if any one needs it.
