WHY IN THE WORLD would the DNC give criminals' mothers a huge chunk of their agenda? to what end? admit they're just pandering to get the black vote. I guess HRC has to make up for her "SUPER PREDATORS" comment. But while they're doing that, they are alienating all law enforcement. They aren't even part of the conversation. That's some message they're sending.
I have to laugh a little, because this is what we, on the right, put up with every single day.

You really can't reason with the majority of you guys. Obviously there are a few exceptions.

Default So the lines have been drawn; Dems love BLM, GOP loves cops

Not so fast...

Police are public employees.

GOP governors (Scotty Walker comes to mind) hate public employees like cops, teachers, and firefighters and have been doing all they can to bust their unions, raid their pension funds, and spread them as thin as possible in order to allow tax cuts for the Koch bros and other fatcats.

You're not fooling anyone.

She is alienating everyone that values the rule of law and a civilized society. But given her propensity to lie through her teeth while assuming rules don't apply to her, its not a big surprise that she would double down on promoting lawlessness.

1. I am a cop.

2. Black Lives Matter ... I am neutral ... I can take 'em or leave 'em. I understand their anger, but there is no excuse for attacks on cops.

3. I am a Union Member.

4. I am a registered Democrat.

5. I am not voting for Trump.

Since they hate the police so much I assume that the DNC convention will not utilize their services, since they think that police are unnecessary and evil.

This is illogical. Their own staff, peers, and employees are also public employees.

Also, pensions are just a relic of the past that are no longer sustainable, maybe they never were, but its very clear thats the case today. Nobody likes it when the punch bowl gets taken away, but its whats best for all in the long run.

You should rethink that judgment. There are bigger concerns than just this issue of Blm. Now your candidate is suspected of laundering , embezzlement t and Illegally moving money over international bounties. The Haitian Relief Issue)

Certainly does seem odd that Hillary & the DNC align themselves with the "Kill the Cops" rhetoric.
I doubt this is going to play well for them.
