Location: RAINY FREEZING AnartiFlorida | I guess I am missing something here. When had it ever been ok or legal to commit a crime whether you're black, white, Orange or green. I'm so sick of the race card. No one alive today owned slaves. I see civil war coming to this country and Obama and those leaches are going to be the cause of it. All of them have done nothing but suck the blood out of everything good about this country. Prayers for the cops. I fear now there truly will be open season on anyone who is black whether they are a thug or not. Congrats to Obama. Worst president in history. He set out to tear this country apart and he's done it. Itsme really. You think it's ok to shoot someone. Never mind I'm shutting up |

| I believe, if you dig into the root of where all this discontent began, you will find yourself at the doorstep of every major news network. Sensationalism sells and discontent creates bigger headlines. The communication sharks realized they can control the conversation and they can control the political spectrum and it just keeps getting wild.
And, I'm sorry, I think our Potus has benefitted greatly at so many things because of this as well. |

| kmcsunshine - 2014-12-20 7:47 PM Itsme - 2014-12-20 7:19 PM This isnt the thread for it but you insist... Law enforcement are becoming more and more militarized while trampling peoples rights and the constitution with zero repercussions and people are getting sick of it and pushing back. The dude is a murder and im glad he is dead, but im not surprised. Yeah I know, twist my words into something to be faux outraged about... I do not know you since I do not come here often. I do not know if you are white, black, man, woman, gay, straight or transgender. I do not even know if you are an Ameican. I am not in any way, shape or form, "faux outraged" by your statements concerning the two lives lost today. I am appalled that anybody could casually dismiss this or infer it was an action that was justified. I have to wonder if you really feel this way or if perhaps you just like to agitate. It matters not to me. I have over my years on this board valiantly tried to stay away from personal attacks/comments when posting. I have on occasion failed. This will be one of those times. You are an IDIOT and must have no grasp of right and wrong as well as a total and complete lack of common sense. Law enforcement officers are human. That means there are good ones, bad ones and everything in between. You cannot judge them unless you have put your life on the line to keep me safe. They stand between those of us who keep the law and anarchy. I am grateful for them as well as our armed forces who risk their lives daily. No, they may not be perfect, but when events such as this are condoned in the name of "pushing back," there is a problem. Pushing back for what if you don't mind me asking. The death of a thug who would have killed a LEO in the line of duty if he had not been stopped by lethal force? If you really feel that the events persecuting law officers are justified and are not just posting to stir the pot, then the black agitators should be proud. They have accomplished their goal.
couldn't have said it any better |

Location: Eastern OH but my heart is in WV | Just thinking out loud here but let me get this all straight....
We have "Group A" over in one corner....
A number of individuals that are outraged and keep screaming, rioting and preaching that they want to stop being judged by their appearance. Some people even saying skin color "ALONE" makes them targets and they are not treated fairly by the police and especially by police of a different skin color.... They want it to be heard....STOP JUDGING THEM! Stop making assumptions based on appearance, treat all people with FAIR JUDGEMENT!!!!
Now we have "Group B" over here....
Men and women and all races working hard to protect lives and serve others. YES, there are some bad officers and I am sure there is some corruption among the ranks but OVERALL we can find examples of WAY more postive acts of heroism than bad "calls". MANY of today's police officers are also military veterns and are our neighbors, friends, husband, wives, sons, daughters..... They DON'T set out on any given day "just hoping" to "target" someone to beat, kick around or shot. Actually, I would bet money if you talk to about any police officer if they never had to fire their gun, that would be FINE with them and a good day to them would be a "quiet one" where they come home to their families every night.
So now we have "Group A" - who keep SCREAMING about not judging them based upon "appearance" - Is now the SAME group of people who can justify killing others based soley on that peron's "appearance"?
I undersand this was a lone gunman but he killed these two individuals based ONLY on the fact they were cops. NO OTHER REASON. He did not know them and they propably had never seen his face before today. And even more sadly, I am sure there are MANY other people that are happy those "pigs" were killed ....it was "revenge."
I realize in the "reality of things" it will propably only be a minority of people who think along this distored way of thinking but it makes NO sense to me. I am sick of this double standard "Don't judge me, but it is OK for me to judge you."
The greatest commandment on the Bible is "To love one another."
I honestly can not wrap my head around this way of thinking so many people have today "wanting equality but showing so much hate/ dislike towards others."

Just something to think about.... Many years someone said " Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely...."
Now I don't care what anyone says... When you give someone the power and authority that comes with the badge and the gun of a law enforcement officer... at some point they will abuse it. Maybe it will only be a small infraction. Maybe only once. Maybe all the time. But they will KNOW it is wrong and they will do it anyway. .. Nobody this side of God is perfect... Cops included..... |

Location: Florida.. | my cell didnt post what I wrote so .....Id like to know when and why it is ok for thugs to murder a innocent cop in cold blood all because he feels hes entitled and can do it... entitlement .. if officers have no control then thats whats happening.. the thugs take control. so komet I disagree with your logic.officers need control. which they are losing slowly .. there is no respect anymore from these scum thugs and the people that are protesting and rioting.. blacks seem to be USING their color to get away with murder..

| I thought I was quoting itsme saying this has nothing to do with our dear leader. Maybe someday I will learn to work the iPad.
Question for komet as well. Are you saying it is ok for a citizen to judge LEO's then carry out the death penalty because they might have or some other officer might have abused the power given to them?

I'm not nor ever been a 'bleeding heart'...yet, I've lived next to the Navajo Reservation for over 35 years and have seen the discrimination. In December 1987 2 Navajo policemen (one of whon I knew very well) were murdered. The details vary, suffice it to say they had 'busted' a teenage party in the boonies & were attacked, tied up, shot in the back execution style (not killed), tortured in front of many young eyes who were also threatened then burned alive when the vehicle used to 'remove' the bodies got stuck in a wash.
We've had very little 'police protection' since then...they will not come here to prevent anything...they only show up if there's a body they must deal with and most times they aren't even called then as the reservation is federal & nobody wants the FBI around (I guess?) & they have no trust in 'authority'. People simply 'disappear'.
There's only a few gangs of 'bad apples' but they have the entire population terrorized...including their own family members. The hatred for 'white man' is palpable. And getting more so everyday. (Thank you Hollywood and ignorant politicians and media and'users' and bleeding hearts everywhere...).
What I really don't get is how they call each other *ni***'s? What is that about?
The divide is real...even out here in the boonies. I can't imagine how awful it is in the inner cities.
We have no choice but to be well armed as we have no one to call. They don't bother us too much here in our community...they've tried to take it over & have gang wars in town...we've had to get involved personally & become a gang of our own. It's stoopid. I wonder sometimes why I must pay taxes when we have no services.
I hear all the time on the scanner, "Is it a native?", if it is the calls are often ignored. Even accidents.
I don't know the answer.
I like our Sheriff & I like most of the deputies...you have to realize that the majority of the population other than natives are mormon & 'mixing' isn't encouraged, so 'no', I don't know them well! Lol...
It's a kinder box...world wide & I pray everyday for healing.
It IS race...it IS religion...it IS resentment of 'authority'...it IS judging by looks...what the heck else do we have to instinctively protect ourselves with? AND...that can be race OR a badge. Crazy.
