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.

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.

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”.

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.

Some people just finding out there’s a war against Whites. Remember the “knockout ‘game’”?

It’s an unfair war because the justice department actively promotes violence against Whites and prosecutes Whites for things that are not crimes.

So what do you think?

I think that there is a 2-liter bottle of "I Told You So" to be given to all those who deny that this was is being orchestrated at the national level.

Several of us out here have been sounding the alarm, that the race-war was kicking off, but we were screamed "racist-bigot-tinfoiler" at every turn.

Sometimes I hate being right...

well not yet.

What we have seen are merely skirmishes. A semi tractor plowing through a mass of demonstrators killing and maiming hundreds is war. Running over a demonstrator’s foot is just a skirmish

Shooting officers on duty out side a project tower is a skirmish. sealing the door ways and burning that tower is war
