Liberals to blame for cop killings

Then how do you know they have self-segregated themselves? It came across to me you spoke on their behalf. Do you live with black people?

We need to discuss facts and opinions backed by some evidence. Your claims could be wrong.

 

Yes, I have lived in a predominately black area for about 15 years in my past. There was a minority that would foment violence and hatred while drinking on the streets, selling drugs and maintaining whole apartment buildings full of prostitutes and collecting their welfare checks. These are the minority that basically run things along with gangs. Most of the residents were decent hard working folks.

This is what we saw in Ferguson, a few violent protestors causing mayhem and being SUPPORTED by leftist-progressive radical Democrats and Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson.

The FACTS are that offenders resisted arrest and (tragically) were shot down. Now, because guys like Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson and a contingent of the Democrat party sympathized with CRIMINALS...Two cops were executed. These people have blood on their hands.

 

Did I say "cops were out of control and rioting in Ferguson"? DId I say only cops were out of control?

Think a little before you respond. Its not all about Ferguson or Brown or Garner. Thats just the most visible (and politicized) tip of the iceberg.

And because people in Ferguson are rioting and burning the place down does not mean cops are universally blameless.

 

I am calm and I noted you didnt explore a single factor that actually blamed the people responsible. Did you ever think that maybe.....just maybe its the thugs fault?

 

Agree. I said on another thread that we don't have a race problem in this country, we have a LIBERAL problem. Black liberals see education and success as 'acting white'. They are vile racists who call intelligent blacks like Ben Carson an 'uncle Tom', as do their white counterparts.

Liberals are vile.

 

You got it. I too have lived in predominately black areas for many years in the past and it was always a minority that cause problems. Usually drug related. Everyone else was at the mercy of those that caused trouble.

There is a problem with cops that overstep their bounds and not being held accountable but it is in the minority though the media inflates it beyond the problem. Some changes do need to be made in accountability that would go a long way to absolving the problem and help perception as long as it did not ensnare cops that are actually doing their jobs.

 

Well, the cops didn't burn down buildings did they? Sorry I don't blame a cop for defending himself after a thug tried to shoot him with his own gun. Which side of the law are you on anyway?

 

Okay fair enough.

Yes it is their fault. I was also exploring other factors as well.

 

My question is, why is Al Sharpton (who supports the thugs) given any credence by ANYONE? Why do you think that is?

 

Off topic: I desperately want your avatar!

 

I believe there is some truth to this, indirectly.
All their gun control laws have turned otherwise law-abiding people into criminals.
And then there's low level petty criminals that just carry around a gun to defend themselves, with the type of business they choose to involve themselves in, they need personal protection. But what happens when one of these criminals has a gun on their person and they get stopped by police? If they were ALLOWED to carry their gun, there wouldn't be a problem. But gun control laws CREATE a problem.
What does a person—who is already a lawbreaker—do when someone is about to come up to them and throw them into jail for two years, over something that's not even really morally wrong? Can we really be surprised when they don't all just go along with it?

So you want to ask who's to blame for these confrontations...

 

No. Lack of personal responsibility is why there is such a high crime rate.

No more, no less.

 

Why would they need AutoZone? If they need a car part (or a whole car), they just steal what they need.

 

It is the concept that someone else is responsible for your own bad actions that is a problem. Victim mentality.

 

Actually poverty may be a factor. When people have less money they turn to crime to make more.

 

When have liberals ever taken personal accountability for themselves? There's always someone or something else to blame.

 

I stand corrected.

 

I never did.

I went through a period of unemployment. My mortgage was still due, taxes were still due, I still had to eat.

Surprise: I cut back. I did without. I learned how to live within my means. I ultimately got a job!

I didn't steal a single thing from anybody.

 

Because most people are followers. Sharpton is nothing more than a bobbleheaded cult leader.

 

Not everyone is like you though. You cannot generalise your experience and successes upon the rest of the population. Whilst I agree your experiences are to be viewed in a positive light but more must be done.

 

For what reason? to justify their actions? There is no justification for hammering someone to death or murdering a police officer.

 

I'll notify the media immediately.

 

No not everyone is like him....thats why we have terms like criminal victim and murder.

 

The point is that some people need more help in order to reduce crime rate.

 

You really shouldn't be saying anything about someone else being the sharpest tool in the box when you can't differentiate between a noun and an adjective.
