So what do you think?

I think that the vacationing 'president' heard the news of the assassination of two police officers, spoke not a word and then proceeded on a round of golf.

He joins the comedian, Al Sharpton, in fanning the flames of violence and even though a black Progressive had been elected twice America would be no better off than with a KKK member as president.

When the violence spills out of the urban centers and into the suburbs the citizens will demand and then accept martial law. When this happens the Republic will have not only failed on its tremendous debt, but will have failed the American people.

While I liked the article, the author makes a critical premise error in the lede: “...the civil unrest caused by the deaths of Michael Brown and Eric Garner.”

The root cause of the recent unrest is not the deaths of those two individuals.

We all know the cause(s) reside elsewhere. FReeper Travis McGee has written on the topic.

Aside from that, a good read.

America extends far beyond the suburbs and the vast majority of the country is quiet. Those who neglect to point that fact out are just as guilty as those who seek to inspire violence.

Yep. Gin up enough divisiveness and they can implement the Police State they have longed for.

The BGF is an African-American Marxist revolutionary organization that seeks the overthrow of the U.S. government.

This sounds just like Barack's and Rev.Wright's Church of Black Liberation.

I don't think there has been any big shift in attitudes - the Sharptons and Obamas are just emboldening some of the really bad guys and more of mainstream America is starting to notice the sentiment that has been there all along.

National Review can apologize to John Derbyshire, now.

Black Guerilla Family are associates of the Weather Underground. Billy the Bomber Ayers was a member of that, and a fan of Charles Manson, and a supporter of Manson’s idea of a race war. Manson must be laughing like a lunatic now.

Bull’s eye!

This is all going according to plan.

Chaos is necessary.

Municipal Police standing down is necessary.

Nature hates a vacuum, and that federal “Civilian Force” greater than the Army promised by the Maoist agitator in chief will fill the vacuum.

0bama’s new federal police will be comprised of street gangs, thugs, “activists”, and “organizers”.

They need to bring about CWII to make their final play. It’s risky, and they know it, but they believe time is ripe to take their best shot.

This Black War on our police started in the early 1970s and has never really stopped. I’m glad we are recognizing this war because if we don’t fight it and win it our country is over.

War consists of two sides fighting each other. This is a massacre. If the police are now prohibited from doing their job then it is up to a civil society to restore justice. “By all means necessary”.

Two more

Hope

This is the fundamental transformation Obola was talking about. The transformation from a 1st world civilized society into a broken third world shit-hole

Trouble for them (0bama and team) is math. There’s not enough trained, ‘loyal’ competent “civilian force” members compared to those they would seek to oppress should the struggle go mainstream. Just th r e e perc cent makes their plan non-viable.

The model today is a one-off model - a huge SWAT team descends on a single home or business. Of course they prevail. They don’t have to worry about their flanks. They don’t have to concern themselves with harassment and interdiction in their logistics or comms. etc etc. They control the order of battle. That would not persist as a scenario should this struggle go overt and public by their provocations.

They have to keep this low-intensity and non-kinetic in order to succeed with their gradualism which has worked to date.

This is Hunger Games writ large with 0bama and his ‘game makers’ controlling the flow and seemingly available options. Should unplanned/ non-scripted events break this wide open they lose control as game makers. This NY event was not planned, (despite their culpability) but they will try to alter the game plan to take advantage of even this ‘crisis.’

In many areas of the country today, our police officers are actually being trained to be physically brutal, to bark orders at ordinary citizens and to treat everyone around them like dirt. This culture of brutality and oppression filters down from the very top, and so ultimately the root of the problem is at the federal level.

An interesting statement with absolutely no evidence given to back it up. If anything, case law in the last 30 years has driven things in completely the opposite direction. Every use of force is measured against a 4th amendment standard down to every swing of a baton, 5 second activation of a taser, and round fired in a gun fight.

If there is an escalation in violence it is due to the nature of our society, and the lack of respect people have for strangers. This goes for both police and the public at large.

Race pimps have the blood of innocent LEO on their hands.

Several other LEO shootings.

Rural America is not free of LEO getting shot at by minority youth.

The few times that I talked to Charles Manson, I came away with the idea that he really IS a lunatic. He is not putting on an act. I ran into a few old BGF guys too, but they were not as active as they were around the time of San Quentin's infamous George Jackson incident in 1971.

It is vitally important to realize what a disaster these police assassinations could cause.

In the 1970s, with the encouragement of the federal government, police discontinued what amounted to the traditional, “Old West” style of policing, and adopted SWAT tactics in ordinary police work. Over time, this has evolved into paramilitarized police forces across the US.

At the time, it was thought that it would protect police lives, but it quickly became just the opposite, that *more* police were being killed, not by assassins, but just in the ordinary course of their work, by ordinary citizens and through accidents.

The fundamental problem is that handguns only have three modes: holstered, brandished, and firing. And this severely limits what can be done with them. Plus, when a gun is brandished, there is much more chance the officer will lose control of it, to their detriment. This is why so many police today appreciate the Taser, because it gives them much more flexibility.

But SWAT continued, and kept getting worse and worse. It created a rift between the police and the public, by taking cops “off the street” and putting them in patrol cars over wide areas, and then the cancerous effects of “legal liberalism” soured much of the goodwill that police had.

Policing is *not* egalitarian, even if the courts strive to give equal justice before the law. Police *should* treat different people differently, based on who they are, but more importantly, *how* they behave.

Middle class and up people are generally well behaved and cooperative. So they need policing appropriate to them. They fit into the group of “gentle people”.

Likewise, poor people can be honest and honorable also, and those people deserve politeness and helpfulness from police as well.

But the “criminal classes”, junkies and drug abusers, transients, alcoholics and the severely intoxicated, abusive and violent, and offensive and disruptive people need a different form of policing.

Treating good people like they treat the ill behaved rankles the good people; and the *lack* of a firm hand with the ill behaved just invites more bad behavior.

Right now, a certain class of people are demanding that they be allowed to oppress and abuse others without interference from the police. As a class, they have become so offensive that police just assume they are engaged or involved in bad behavior, even murderous violence. And this is offensive to the members of that class that do not do this.

But their protests are subverted by those in their class who behave badly, yet want to do so with license. And their families. Likewise, they even object when good people fight back against them, that the good people should have no right to defend themselves.

So as a society our options are limited. The police are now armed with military style weapons, so just giving them more weapons or *abusive* authority “against everyone”, in an egalitarian manner, is not acceptable.

The other alternative is that the police do what they must against *just* those who would attack them, and their associates, while insuring that they will no longer have the opportunity to do this. Granted, the police will have to be carefully discreet in this, in that it does not involve arrest.

I myself am waiting for the appearence of Obola’s version of the Touton Macoute, or the Dignity Battalions.

They’re coming, sure as the sun will set.
