Michael Ramirez is a Pulitzer Prize-winning political cartoonist who works for the Las Vegas Review Journal. And I am sure he has definitely read Mary Shelley’s classic novel, Frankenstein (or, the Modern Prometheus), as evidenced by his latest cartoon, titled “LIBERALS CITIES ABOLISH AND CUT FUNDING FOR POLICE DEPARTMENTS.”

See, given the choice between:
- a heavily-armed and heavily-entitled mediocre white guy with a boner for power and violence; or
- a miracle of science who was famously gentle and misunderstood, despite the angry assumptions of a mass mob who viewed him as subhuman just because of his appearance and conditions forced on him by a power-hungry monster of a man;
I think it’s pretty easy to decide which one you’d rather have patrolling your neighborhood. (Assuming that police even actively “patrol” in suburban and rural areas.)
