I think BLM is run by people who can't see the forest for the trees, black on black crime dwarfs police shooting minorities of all kinds.

BLM is probably going about it wrong. But since white on white crime is also a "thing", do you really think that if cops started randomly shooting unarmed white guys there wouldn't be outrage and something instantly done to try and stop it? In the end, that's all BLM is after, but the guys doing the black/black crime are getting involved, they don't want things to be "better", would cut into the gang profits. And in the end it all comes down to money.

 

The thin blue line has plenty of holes in it today and cameras on every officer will make it tissue thin.

Oh, it will get "thinner" but never totally stop. Look at the camera"malfunctions" in some of the things that have gone on so far.

The rogue cops are shooting unarmed white guys in greater numbers than blacks but it's not being reported every half hour on the hour.

Really?

 

I should have highlighted rogue cops as a play on the anti-cop theme of this thread.

I see they caught the perp that shot the San Antonio police officer. Maybe he'll get the death penalty.

A U.S. Marshal was killed in Georgia this past week serving a warrant.

 

Warren Commission "Lone Gunman" conclusion rendered moot by discovery of CIA conspiracy.

"The most important information that McCone withheld from the commission in its 1964 investigation, the report found, was the existence, for years, of CIA plots to assassinate Castro, some of which put the CIA in cahoots with the Mafia. Without this information, the commission never even knew to ask the question of whether Oswald had accomplices..."

"In 2015, the CIA quietly declassified a report showing that former CIA director John McCone was complicit in withholding information regarding the assassination– a de facto conspiracy."

I'm sure we have at least on participant this site who will not believe the C.I.A. documents linked above.
After all, our government investigated itself, and our government never lies.

Some rough "stats" from the gun-free city of Chicago, over the Thanksgiving weekend: 61 shootings, 9 deaths.

For all Rahm's kindness, I don't think many refugees will be willing to come to a city more dangerous than the homeland they left behind.

Maybe that's why he offered it in the first place, .

 

He promised they'd be safe in Chicago. Class action lawsuit anyone?

 

well, OSU was declared a sanctuary campus a couple weeks ago.

karma is a b_tch, as they would have it.

 

But ... in OSU's case the Somali refugee used a car and a knife. It seems the cops on scene "eliminated" the threat.

you mean Congress should ban "assault cars" and "assault knifes"?

It seems the cops on scene "eliminated" the threat.

there has to be a disparate impact argument here: the cops are killing criminals disproportionately here. Don't they know that "criminal lives matter" too?

 

the left's fascination with banning things they don't want fascinates me. they ban guns, they ban offensive languages, they ban un-approved thoughts, ...

the only things they haven't banned are crimes and criminals (isn't that quite interesting? are the lefties secretly in love with crimes and criminals?): it would have been nice if they had declared Chicago a crime-free city, or OSU a criminal-free campus.

Heck, if you had banned people all together, we would all live in peace forever.

 

 

If cars were outlawed, only outlaws would have cars.

Trains would make a comeback and you could pick the steak you want right off the hanging cow in the open air market. Nothing like a carcass with flies all around it in an open air market.

 

Cops shoot another black man with no gun. How come the officer killed him in less than a minute after the 911 call? The officer did not give him a chance. The officer should have shot the knife out of his hand.

"Then I heard someone yell, 'He's got a knife.' And I saw a guy with a big-ass knife just chasing people around. When I saw that, I grabbed all my stuff and started running," Bowers said.

Bowers said he looked back to see a police officer on the scene. The officer yelled to the suspect, "Drop it and get down, or I'll shoot," and then fired on the suspect, Bowers said.

That OSU cop is a hero.

 

@nsaspook

There was a report on facebook from a student saying that the "military men" who were students, rounded up some to safety and stood guard at the entrance to the room as"welcoming committee" for whoever decided to enter with a weapon.

England banned guns, then they started working on knives. I don't know that law but I've heard mention of simply, "a sharp edge". The natural evolution of this would be to ban pointy things (like pencils and fingers) and broken glass. I would like to suggest a law against injuring or killing people because you can't legislate everything in the world. Even if you do, criminals, by definition, don't obey the law. And if you do, all it does is turn honest citizens into criminals. Or is that the goal?

Sometimes I think it is... the evolution of language betray's a society's flaws... think for a moment about the term "the ruling class", down here at least, is becoming more used by columnists and commentators every day. It's always up to the population itself, and not to its government, to take steps in defending itself against abuse.
