Leaders of influential civil rights movement release most comprehensive set of policy proposals yet calling for federal and state laws to combat police killings.

What the heck. I agree that we need to combat police killings also. Who knew? Of course once you get into the meat of the article, you see where it's really headed. You know, no fair shooting even if they fire first, come at you with a knife, a bat, a brick, a garbage can, a pipe. Plus they'll want a rep on ALL review boards. Any cantidate that even has talks with them should be off the table as a cantidate. Even more surprising is, well maybe not, it is the brits reporting, is they're considered influential. Well they did influence uncle bernie didn't they. :>}

Tribalism uber alles.

Where’s my White Caucus?

Or, perhaps more politically acceptable, Patriots’ Caucus?

The fatherless hood children are now trying to get into the law enforcement game to make it easier for the disruptive fatherless scumbags.

We can’t get white only college funds, or white only colleges either.

I feel so discriminated against and for some reason, I don’t feel like burning down a town about it!

According to Organizing 101, that's because you don't feel strongly enough. /S
