So what? Everybody says things on the job that they don't necessarily mean. My spouse was a paramedic for over 20 years, you should hear some of the morbid jokes he has cracked. Same thing with a doctor friend of mine. You learn to blow off steam or else the job will consume you.

For those that belive in social justice as am ideology. What you say is powerful and what you say means more than action. For some That follow woke and social justice. Words can incite violence and doe some words speak louder than actions.

You're right - I saw Sharpton do just that thing at that Memorial - but he spoke to the nation as everything was televised - what was said across a band wave was only heard by a few and as someone said it's a release in a stressful situation. Do I condone that - no but I've hears my fair share throughout my life. Just because someone vents does not mean they act on that vent.

You think that person wouldn't have said the same thing 4 years ago?

So police are demonized across the board by crazed leftists, who are now calling for them to be disbanded entirely, with rioters and looters hopping onto the bandwagon to wreak havoc, and leftist mayors defending them, and a cop was caught expressing his frustration? Big whoop.

Here's Trump supporters at his rallies, saying to Jews, "Go to f---ing Auschwitz!"

...and to blacks, "Go back to Africa!"

Bigotry and hatred ARE the Trump brand.

It would be an interesting experiment to see what happens if they actually did get rid of their Police forces. I'd like to see a bunch of social workers and lame psychologists show up for a hostage situation.
