One of the most enjoyable things about the #MeToo movement has been the way that a political movement the left obviously intended to take out Trump and other prominent Republicans instead ended up exposing the gross sexism and outright misogyny of prominent Democrats in the political and media world. One would think there would be the same pleasure in watching how leftists have tried to hurt conservatives in the wake of police shootings, since that effort, too, has looped back to hurt leftists. There is no joy with this political theater, though

But what does it matter if no one publicly counters the lies? Visible on TV, at last night's night's BLM 'protest' was an anti-Trump sign. What's Trump got to do with a local cop killing that poor man? We MUST take every opportunity to point out who is truly at fault and with only Fox News and a smattering of websites to voice our side it remains difficult but all the more essential.

When a brilliant young man lost his bid to become a police cadet over a person of color he took his case to the Supreme Court.
The Court decided that police were correct, smart people need not apply.
And, should a smart person apply, he can be turned down because he would only get bored and quit.
Thus police hiring is limited to dumber people as a policy.
And Democrat areas take this more to heart than other areas.
You do reap what you sow, however.
Dummies are going to act dumb every now and again.

I watched the video, and I thought, no way that kind of takedown or stay down is in their training. The man called out in distress, and you'd think the officer would have let up a little, just in case, you know. But he didn't. He even called out for his mom; this man was over forty years old. Very tragic and very sad.
I noticed the looters were looting with their dual purpose masks on. The looting usually destroys the "righteousness" of the protests, but this time, we have a real case of unnecessary force and death as a result. The way they loaded that man onto what looked almost like a third-world fabric stretcher, you could tell there was something very wrong. There was no movement at all in his body. Was he dead before they loaded him into the vehicle? This is just sad all the way around. My heart weeps for him and his family.

#6, how do you equate looting with protesting? Did Autozone and Target have a hand in this unfortunate death? Were the other places they trashed responsible for the incident? Those feral animals just took the opportunity to steal whatever they could. How does that help change things, except for the worse?

Poster #7, I think you misunderstood what I was stating, or I didn't make myself clear. I wasn't equating the two; I was actually thinking of the mayor of B-more who said the looters and arsonists needed the space to vent. She basically equated looting, arson, and protesting. Also, one can respect protesting when these things happen, but looting and rioting becomes the focus because there's another agenda. Read my post again. Slowly. You'll never find me on here sanctioning that type of behavior. Again, perhaps my writing was unclear, but I didn't mean what you thought I meant.

Minneapolis is a liberal Democrat run city. If they have bad cops there, now we are hearing that the particular police officer who used his knee on the Black man’s neck was previously involved in about a dozen abuse of force incidents, you have to wonder why the liberal Democrats who run that city did not fire that police officer previously? Instead of looking into that, the liberal Democrats are blaming President Trump.

Is it just me, or is everyone ignoring the Elephant in the Room?
I am speaking of Urban Thug Culture, which has been going strong in the 'Rat controlled inner cities since at least 1968.
Ruined neighborhoods, thugs loafing around in the middle of the workday, looking for a handout, alcohol, cigarettes or drugs....Ruined houses.....trash everywhere...... nothing getting repaired except some public projects funded by HUGE outlays of Taxpayer's (not these people) cash...... and Riots every time there is a so-called 'excuse' for so-called 'Outrage'.
Today we have all these nice bureaucratic words from the Government people.......Yada.. Yada. Yada Yada......as the Thugs destroy every thing of value, and drive out Every Decent Person.
I was a little kid, but I remember seeing the (1963?) Selma PROTESTS on TV...... the black GENTLEMEN in the protest march were wearing THREE PIECE SUITS with HATS! Their signs said.... "I AM A MAN"..... and the Democrats Fire-Hosed 'em!
1964/1965 saw Johnson's so-called 'Great Society'.... the Welfare State took off..... no-Dad households, broken families, out-of-control black male teens took off..... by 1968 we had the MLK RIOTS, and the pattern has remained the same ever since.
PS: Why do the Police 'Stand Down' (that is, Run Away and Abandon the Law-Abiding Citizens) when it gets vicious?
I thought the Police (at least in New Yawk) were famous for Running Toward the Danger, to save the Citizens?
