The man's name was not being made public yet, according to police.

I really wish the President would use the bully pulpit to blame Rahm Emanuel and Obama for all this.

If not big media will twist it to blaming and holding responsible Donald Trump.

Don’t let ‘em do it Donald...and don’t forget Baltimore.

A black judge was shot and killed over the weekend. Evidently it was an attempted robbery or carjacking gone wrong. The judge was on his way to a local fitness club with a lady friend. Sha was shot in the legs but will probably survive. Nobody is in custody.

The meanstream media will never truthfully report on leftists. I wish there was a significant way to penalize media lying. Not buying their product seems ineffective.
