I am happy he didn’t kill the police officer or someone else. Sooner or later, it was likely to happen.

But understand that the decision to promote these stories, in preference to others that are equally or more newsworthy, is a choice that is consciously made by people with a political agenda.

Yes, their agenda is to destroy local police and have a federal force that answers to the president. People don’t realize how having sheriffs and local police chiefs protect us from federal tyranny. I would really like to know how all these agitators support themselves and how much of our tax money goes to “community organizations” that pay these vermin.

The article is excellent. I would probably change the title because every death mean grieving family members. “So what” seems cold. I get the point. I would just try to say it differently. Even if your dead family member was a bum and a criminal, it still matters to you.

>> Police killings of blacks are an extremely rare feature of black life and are a minute fraction of black homicide deaths. The police could end all killings of civilians tomorrow and it would have no effect on the black homicide risk, which comes overwhelmingly from other blacks.

Speaking the truth is heresy!

Expect an Eric Holder hate-crime investigation and an IRS audit.

Not all black lives count.

The connecting theme is that most of these blacks are thugs. With the exceptions of the twelve year old and career criminal Garner, they were major problems to their communities. The Christmas Eve shooting in MO was yet another incident of self defense. Yet these shootings are bringing down American society in a mass movement fueled, at the center, by black thugs and Occupy Wall Street. Insanity.

I’m watching the local Houston news, and there was a shooting in Texas City in which a dude was arguing with another dude in a lounge parking lot. Cops showed up, and the perp turned his gun on the cops who took him out. The latest is a crowd is throwing bottles at the cops now.

The media are in the business of stirring up racial hatreds, and so they hyped this one even though it has nothing to do with the other shootings.

Police: Man with knife shot by police after lunging at officers

Posted: Dec 26, 2014 5:44 AM CST Updated: Dec 26, 2014 5:45 AM CST

CHICAGO (Sun-Times Media Wire) -

An allegedly suicidal man with a knife was shot and wounded by a Chicago Police officer on Christmas Day after he lunged at officers, injuring one of them, authorities said.

Grand Crossing District police officers drove up to a building at 6:40 p.m. in the 400 block of East Marquette Road in the Woodlawn neighborhood to respond to a call of a man threatening suicide, according to Deputy Chief Berscott Ruiz of the South Chicago District, the Sun-Times is reporting.

When the officers got out of their vehicle, they saw a man sitting on a porch. The man lunged at them with a knife and twice struck the protective vest of one of the officer, Ruiz said on the scene Thursday night, citing a preliminary report.

The man then started walking eastbound, and when the officers asked him to drop his weapon, he turned around and again lunged at the officers, Ruiz said.

The man was shot twice in the torso and taken to Stroger Hospital in critical condition, Ruiz said.

The injured officer also was taken to an area hospital for treatment of minor injuries, Ruiz said. He was listed in good condition.

The knife used in the incident was recovered, police said.

Ruiz didn’t take questions from the media at the scene of the incident.

The police officer performed as trained with shot placement to the the deadly threat’s body mass.

Unlike the media talking head experts who we know will say that in this case the officer should have shot the knife out of the perp’s hand.

What I am concerned about is, after already being struck by the knife the first time maybe the officer in that split second hesitate to shoot because of fear that he will be crucified by the Leftist media and lose his job, or worse?

Tomorrow, murdered NYPD, Officer Ramos will be laid to rest. At least 25,000 “out of town” police officers will attend with thousands of New York City uniformed public servants, all the various NYC poiice departments, the NY fire department personnel, NYC emergency responders, etc., accompanied by thousands of Puerto Rican Hispanics and rank & file New Yorkers

I would suggest that hundreds of thousands of NYC, African-Americans turn out to honor the memory and public service of Officer Ramos, for the most obvious of reasons that any sane person would see and understand!!! If not, Black Americans will continue to be adrift-at-sea, without either paddle or rudder for many, many years to come. Following Barack Hussein Obama, Eric Holder, Al Sharpton and Bill De Blasio is no way to go through life!!! Wake up, folks....you are alone...except for the radical America haters you pal along with!!! for goodness sake....figure it out....look in the mirror and you will clearly see the problem!!!
