Thank you for telling us all about your irrelevant anecdotes and cop-hating, but do you have anything to add in this thread besides complete ignorance?

Black on black violence doesn't attract the cameras so Al and Jesse won't show up.

It doesn't help when the POTUS and DOJ get involved. With all the national and internation issues going on, you'd think the priorities would be different.
Most black on black crime is drug and/or gang related so I don't care much since their families don't seem to care either. I only care when innocent victims get caught in their crossfire. And Waldo (whom I have on ignore) is right in my opinion. Blacks who have children who can't seem to stay out of trouble don't want to confront them and correct them. They just want to pray it away and they ignore the situation and blame everyone else because they won't blame themselves.

Where's the protest there? Oh, that's right. When Latinos protest they are killed by the dozens and white and black America do not even blink.


A better question would be why your not out protesting??



And for the record there have been Latinos out protesting. Every race has been present.








The youth are all united. Race is irrelevant.




We've called out the baiters and racist on all sides. I did it personally and put my rep on the line. And for the record, there was a hit song, by a top Hip Hop artists, release to specifically address issues within the community. There's been countless others who have spoken up to.

The only reason you only hear 1 message (from BlackLivesMatter) is because George Soros has been funding them and they're using all of the high level media contacts to push their message. They're a front group. They didn't start a damn thing.






A better question would be why are some still not looking towards a solution or recognizing that this is a legit concern. Again, every case should be judged independently, but the fact is that there are too many people being killed by Police and people want thorough investigations, answers, and accountability when there's fault.


For too long in this country there's been zero Police accountability.

Is every black person killed by a cop now going to be reported on by the media?

Not much to go on other than there was a struggle, sorry, but if this holds true, getting shot and killed is what happens when you struggle with a cop.

Dead teens are click-bait, dead cops aren't.


here is a cop murdered just 12 hours ago:
http://news.yahoo.com/philadelphia-police-mourn-officer-killed-during-robbery-070128066.html

another murdered cop 2 days ago:
Georgia police officer killed in 'ambush,' another one saved by radio - CNN.com






Let me cut to the chase, and show you the 17 murdered cops through the first 2 months of 2015:
Law Enforcement Line of Duty Deaths in 2015

and the 124 murdered cops in 2014:
Law Enforcement Line of Duty Deaths in 2014

The 112 murdered cops in 2013:
Law Enforcement Line of Duty Deaths in 2013

and the 130 murdered cops in 2012:
Law Enforcement Line of Duty Deaths in 2012
Where to begin. Why is it when a single (or pair) of cops kill a teen it becomes a war as to cops vs. black kids? How is a cop who was murdered in Philly even related to another cop killing an unarmed teen in Wisconsin?

Why not this one cop made a mistake (or didn't) based on this case, not 100 others were wither a cop or kid was murdered?

These men and women are doing the job we pay them to do, yet every time it doesn't go a criminal's way, and some bastard takes a bullet instead of the cop, society sacrifices the cops.

Do us all a favor the next time you get in trouble, Trishguard. Don't call 911. Call the ACLU or the NAACP to come and save your ass.

Can't think of a single cop being sacrificed. Can you give us an example??



Almost all of the cops recently have been cleared.

When you call the police, they don't do much of anything anyway. Most of the time they just seem annoyed that they were called out to do their jobs. That's not entirely their fault, most of the time there is nothing they can do. Where it gets weird is when they try to get you to pretend nothing happened so they don't have to file paperwork, like they did in SF when my apartment got burglarized.
