As big a jackass as I think Donald Trump is, and that's BIG , the cold blooded assassinations of two officers is clearly the work of a psychopath having little/nothing to do with politics.

Don't vote for the guy if you don't like him, but at least come to grips that most of the lunacy that is happening comes from the left.


Thank Jesus your guys don't need a White Lives Matter. Ever thought of that ? Just saying brother, see what the other side is protesting. If your not complaining about those issues, drop to your knees and give thanks to God.

The murdered police officers have been identified.

Urbandale police officer Justin Martin was only 24 years old and single.

Des Moines police Sgt. Anthony 'Tony' Beminio, 39, was married with three children.



Wednesday’s deaths bring to at least 51 the number of police officers fatally shot in the US and Puerto Rico in 2016. That’s the highest one-year total since 2011, when 73 were shot dead, according to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund.

I didn't say race war, I said civil war. I work with and live around people of all races and creeds and I absolutely love it. However, there are those who don't, and they seem very angry. I think any conflict is based more on a difference in mindsets than on race.

My biggest fear:

Trump wins the popular vote and Hillary wins the electoral vote and therefore the election. Better lock your doors people....

A psychopath who believed he was entitled to wave a confederate flag around at a high school football game to attack a peaceful demonstration acknowledging racial inequality in our country and demand that those peacefully demonstrating via a choice not to rise for the National Anthem be arrested.

The irony of course is that this staunch defender of American rights was of course waving around the flag of an entity that had proclaimed itself to be a separate sovereign nation engaged in battle AGAINST the United States.

But in any case, I think that Trump has created an environment where people believe that they have the right to demand that those who have a different opinion about out country be harassed and arrested. That is why I think this action is pertinent to his campaign and the vitriol he spews at his rallies.

It has been numerous times this election yet Democrats downplay it. I mean, look at posters like First24 in this thread with that baseless statement. I guarantee you Clinton supporters like that didn't say a damn thing about the terrorists who are Hillary supporters or some folks in the BLM movement who killed cops.
