Re: Breaking News: Multiple Police Officers shot in Louisiana





This is why the "Hands Up Don't Shoot" and "Any cop who shoots a black person is a racist" narrative has got to be stopped. It is inciting weak minds to undertake terrible actions.
The media do this to sell newspapers (or tally clicks) and it is getting people killed.
Someone who undertakes to spread malicious untruths that make them money but contribute to innocent people being killed, I'd call such a person pretty thoroughly evil.
This is why I cannot stand American news media. I literally cannot stand them.

Lemon claims he can't condemn BLM because he is a journalist. I wonder if he would condemn the KKK.
Well, Lemon is selective in his condemnation....


CNN’s Don Lemon condemned on Friday the people who have raised the prospect that Florida communities will riot if George Zimmerman is acquitted in the killing of Trayvon Martin, saying it appeared to be little more than thinly-disguised racism.

Re: Breaking News: Multiple Police Officers shot in Louisiana

Can I ask a question as a white male? Why is Obama deemed black? Is it because he identifies as a black man? Because his ethnicity is technically equal black and white. Why does the fact he identifies as a black man even matter? As I said, I am asking for knowledge.
"One drop rule".
The one-drop rule is a social and legal principle of racial classification that was historically prominent in the United States asserting that any person with even one ancestor of sub-Saharan-African ancestry ("one drop" of black blood) is considered black (Negro in historical terms). This concept evolved over the course of the 19th century and became codified into law in the 20th century. It was associated with the principle of "invisible blackness" and is an example of hypodescent, the automatic assignment of children of a mixed union between different socioeconomic or ethnic groups to the group with the lower status.

I wonder if BLM will start taking credit for cop shootings like ISIS does for terrorist attacks.

The ones I know are running like hell in the opposite direction, just like I am that the shooter was briefly a Bama student...

Re: Breaking News: Multiple Police Officers shot in Louisiana

A question for thought. I realize that it is a very small sample, but could there be something (desensitization to violence for example) in the fact that both cop shooters had a military background with deployment to combat zones?
