    It would appear the war on cops has escalated, possibly nationwide. Obama needs to get his butt on TV and tell everyone to knock it off and leave race completely out of it. Lynch needs to do the same thing, so does Sharpton and Jackson. BTW, Jackson blamed the Dallas shootings on Trump, but that's a story for another thread.

    So the actions of 4 individuals is the fault of Pres Obama. Its kind of like when a muslim goes out and murders someone all we hear is that all muslims need to come out and speak against these murderers. Why is it that when a white gunman comes out and murders a group of people all white folks don't need to come out and speak against that one.

    Why is it that when a minority commits a crime it is the responsibility of everyone in the race, but it is just the opposite when someone white does it.

    Can you explain that?

    What is this the BLM's version of 9/11?

    LOL......

    You know what goes down in Chicago everyday? blacks killing blacks over gang nonsense by the half dozen, sometimes by the dozen and the shootings number in the 20's daily.

    You're right, I apologize. There have been 3,500 murders in Chicago since Obama was elected and he's pretty much silent on it, so expecting him to unite people and ask for calm after a handful of cops are shot is too much.

    I am just curious were do they get all those guns from? We know they are not buying them from Frank's gun shop or Billy Bob's Pawn Shop, so where do all those guns come from?

    It really is a shame that the country is currently leaderless.

    How many murders took place in Los Angeles when Reagan and Bush were President and how many times did they speak out on it?

    How many murders took place in Chicago before Pres Obama took office?

    I don't remember you criticizing Pres. Bush for not asking for calm and uniting people when he was in office during the LA riots.

    loans, stolen, and gun runners

    this forum didn't exist, during the LA Riots.

    neither did the internet

    However, President Bush DID try to calm people down and unite us

    They a) steal them and b) buy them from Mexican drug cartels - you know the guns our government sold to them? fast and furious.......

    (*)(*)(*)(*), some black kid not too far from where I live just got a slap on the wrist for stealing 25 guns from a gun shop, in which one of the guns was sold and used to shoot a cop and the guy who shot the cop (black guy btw) was shot and killed himself...... Yea he only got 4 years in prison for that.

    If Hillary gets elected we can see a new crime bill on steroids. That will take care of these folks attacking police.

    are you kidding me, when a white person kills someone, reporters SWARM republicans on capitol hill and demand responses from them... they clearly do demand "white people" speak out against it, and countless democrats will come on the news to sensationalize it and call for more gun restrictions... so what planet are you living on that "white people" don't speak out against it, or are confronted with it, or thrown under the bus for it?!?! take off your sunglasses, they are affecting your ability to see the light...

    government data on where the guns come from...

    http://www.bjs.gov/content/pub/pdf/fv9311.pdf

    page 13... table 14...

    purchased (retail, pawn, shows) 14%
    family or friends 40%
    stolen/streets 37%
    other 8%

    so you can see family and friends are the number one problem for where the guns come from... the number two reason is stolen weapons... purchased guns are the least likely, and when we break down that retail number, pawn shops only account for 4% of the guns people used in crimes... so pawn shops aren't even a blip on the radar to be honest, most of them have a lot of laws to follow that normal shops or retailers don't, since they not only purchase but resell the weapons, most states regulate them heavy, on top of the feds...

    Oh yeah, remember the illegal gun that the boston marathon bombers used to kill a police officer? Massachusetts let the guy go that supplied them the illegal firearm!! Why you ask? Well the guy said he was sorry...reeeeeelly sawy...and he promised he wouldnt do it again. MA believes the guy, sets him free. Then lefties blame guns and scratch their noggins pondering where criminals get guns. They get them from guys like the marathon supplier who we let back out instead of giving him a life sentence.

    White people are generally peace loving God fearing Christian people, who don't use illegal force to achieve their goals.

    most of the force used by White people is state sanctioned by the rich such as the war in iraq and other parts of the mid east, and that is a civilized use of force because the majority of the people agree with it at the time it is used.

    minorities are not part of the majority of people and their goals are different, so they have a bigger responsibility to control the bad guys within their different groups.

    Why is it that when the BLM folks hear about a black guy getting shot, they presume the cops are guilty of murder (despite time and time again the details prove they aren't) and assume all police wake up frothing at the mouth hoping to murder them some black youth every day?

    Ironic isn't it? Cops are all racist murderers, but BLM (who advocate violence on the reg) are not to painted with that same broad brush by a few bad apples.

    the laws give greater weight in favor for the use of force by government against the people.

    for example if someone is holding a sharp object a government agent can interpret that as a threat when others reasonably won't, just by what their feeling at the moment.

    government agents have broad discretion when using lethal force, and blacks have the most encounters with the government due to being oppressed, so their risk is higher of being a victim to poor discretion.

    The ones crying out for a race war are all the right-wingers and their idiot pundits.

    Your apology is both backhanded and offensive.

    Let me get this one straight:

    Since some segments of society cannot assimilate into our culture without violence, it is the gun's fault that a crime is committed?

    Is that your position?

    What about the times that we've witnessed cops chasing suspects and shooting them in the back? What about the man who is held down and shot when he poses no threat? Was it acceptable to shoot a man for reaching for his ID?

    Once upon a time the LEO community hatched a plan to knock down my door, shoot me and THEN claim I resisted arrest. In the course of their actions I lost my job, my credit rating and nearly went bankrupt. The head monkey that started it all was demoted, put out of work for a while, had his actions noted in his service file, and his wrist slapped. What do you think would happen to me if I targeted someone like that?

    And, no, given that there are hundreds of other examples, I won't be posting all of the details on a public board. I didn't care for the media attention the first time.

    How did you become so involved with the LEO community where you lived, why were you targeted?

    I guess all this kind of kills the argument blacks can't be racist. Well except for those who claim they don't have institutional power so the can't be racist, but then those are usually closet racist who make that claim.
