One of the two cops shooting was black. Not that it should matter, just like it doesn't matter that the guy shot was black. He was shot because he was a criminal, not because of any race

Okay. That means it was an execution. By cops, not by the court. Now I get it. Why didn't they just say that in the beginning?

"Black Lives Matter" should be called "Thug Lives Matter." Because that is essentially who the movement keeps defending.

It has nothing to do with being black.

Death by Police Suicide. That is all.

Know what does not look like a gun? A criminal stopping when chased by the police after breaking car windows and putting his hands in the air.

You have your opinion and I have a differing view. And I'd love for the police to send a chopper and patrol officers to deal with someone actively smashing car windows on several cars. Just having the chopper fly overhead should help dissuade other night time troublemakers.

Anyway... again I say we need more black police officers and have them patrol the black majority neighborhoods. Instead, there are the useless black protesters having tantrums all over the city. BLM hasn't solved any of the black communities problems. Clearly these protests haven't changed how policing is done. Therefore, the BLM people should be signing up their people for police academy and showing non-black people how they can police themselves better.

And what's going on in Sacramento and other cities with these BLM protests only shows me that blacks have a huge problem with anger management and self control. And what's the point of disrupting the mayor's speaking by shouting so loud that no one else can speak? That's not a productive conversation, that's just a childish tantrum.
How do you know what works and what doesn’t work in LE? Do have any LE experience? As far as “Blacks have a huge problem with anger management and self control”... You know all “Blacks” now? You have to get this hive mind, broad brush idiocy out of your head, I know it’s gonna be difficult, but you gotta try.

It doesn't take a trainer or instructor to know that if cops took more precautions upfront, they wouldn't feel the need to resort to lethal force right off the bat.

But I get that some of you have no problem with the 0-100 response of cops where people holding toys and cell phones are killed, because you'll always make it about how the victim was wrong.

I find the extent to which people will go to justify excessive police force (I mean Christ, a report of vandalism got a helicopter deployed?) just to oppose BLM to be deeply troubling.

Weird how the Parkland shooter was taken alive, though, huh? And now they are describing him as a 'troubled young man".


Yet they are A-OK with the killing of an unarmed man breaking windows.

My point was that the BLM people are the ones without a clue how LE works. Protesting doesn't work. My suggestion is that they send some of the membership to become LEOs and see firsthand what it's like to patrol at night. I what them to stop protesting and actually become involved in the fix that they are demanding.

I don't live in a bubble. I have a lot of black co-workers and friends and acquaintances. And yes, all of them are quick to snap and become angry in an aggressive way when they feel disrespected. It's a part of the stupid macho culture to go on the attack when they feel threatened or disrespected. They are also quick to play the race card and make it about whitey keeping them done.

Any black person who doesn't have these issues, are those live a very white aka Uncle Tom lifestyle and who speak proper business English.

I've noticed that blacks who live a macho culture lifestyle speak in with a lot of ebonics and are quick to throw in some thuggie/ghetto mannerisms into their body language. And the women do that chicken neck thing.
