The author usually writes better than this. A lot more facts are available in this case, and it merits more than this vague rendition of the episode.

Is Lambro on vacation? He sounds incompetent based upon what he wrote in this article.

Yeah, he does. Go to Townhall.com and check them out.

He is also the chief correspondent for the Washington Times

Ridiculous.

I went to a small private college in upstate NY. It was relatively expensive for the time. There was a healthy percentage of blacks who went there completely for free. (grants, etc.)

I am taking an art history class and two of the area's finest were in the class. Full out Queen Latifah with Mr. T starter kit jewelery.

They rarely showed up to class.

One day, they show up and the instructor is going through some slides and Sister Soldjah #1 raises her hand and asks, "Dat Mesopotamia?"

We had been done with Mesopotamia for, like, a month. She would not know cuz she hadn't been there.

Probably passed the course too.

Enrolled in school can mean a lot of different things to different people.

Maybe he had an off day, it happens to everyone and I don’t think it is necessary like some have done here and in Townhall.com to jump on him like Hyenas and attack him

Thanks.

I asked the question because this article was so bad. Uninformed mainly.

Why do you think this article was so bad?

“Whatever one’s politics, who can disagree with that?”

This was a reference to Obama’s comment. Well, first of all, Obama, like all those skilled in conversational hypnotism, make certain undeniably factual statements as part of the process of lowering the listeners mental defenses and building agreement before jumping to the statements which the hypnotist is trying to implant as absolute fact and truth by mere suggestion without the need for logical persuasion.

I can disagree with Obama, and I do. I don’t care for people who think they are entitled to do my thinking for me. Nor do I care for manipulation and outright lies coming from him and the mainstream media.

Conservative writers should focus on the real tragedies in this story: black teens that think it is okay to steal, rob, use violence, and attack police officers. And how about the making of such teens into national hero’s and icons for more black young people to mimic? Or how about the tragedy of mob violence? Or the destructive influence of the MSM liars?

If I was a parent who lost a son or daughter this way, of course I would be heart broken. But I would have been heart broken also by their choice to commit crimes.

The time to help this teen get off of the path of self-destruction is over. Now is the time to help other teens avoid this path or get off of it before it is too late for them, also.

Police officers put their lives on the line every day. Some make mistakes. But the tragedy here can best be found by scrutinizing the behavior of the teenager who died rather than what the officer might have done differently. This teenager was headed for destruction to himself and others regardless of what the officer did. Teens need to be made aware that following his path will most likely lead to tragedy for themselves unlike the glorified images of the music videos which show the preachers of such lifestyles as rich, famous, successful and living lives of luxury.

Good...we’ll put Lambro in a patrol in a war zone otherwise known as a mostly black inner-city neighborhood. He can patrol the area by himself, and we’ll see how Lambro reacts to situations like the one Officer Wilson faced. What do you bet, Lambro has his gun out ready to fire when faced with a huge, charging male who had already broken his orbital socket. What do you bet Lambro would be firing his gun as fast as he could?

From what I’ve gathered from his actions before and during the time he got himself killed, Brown appears to have been another product of the black underclass fated to live a very short life.

Maybe many of these "conservative" writers are trying to be fair, but I would bet many of them are trying to suck up to people, blacks, who will never accept them.

Lambro to black activists. "Hey, you know I supported you in the Michael Brown case. I thought the officer acted wrongly, and I hope you like me now for supporting your side.
black activist:"did you vote for Obama in the last elections?"
Lambro:"well no, I voted against him."
black activist:"then you're a racist..now get lost whitey!"

I’ve read a lot of Lambro articles, and he’s usually pretty good. But anybody can be wrong. And for some reason many right of center people who consider themselves more libertarian than conservative seem to be on the side of the thug er victim in this case. Sorry...did I betray my feelings by calling the perp a thug?

About 3,300 unwanted Americans will die today; forever having THEIR chance to grow up to even BE a teenager snatched from them by a choosy 'mother' and a serial killer.

Weep for THIS; America!

This guy should not write about anything unless he knows the facts about what he is writing about.

His mistakes are numerous and this is the reason that so many lies abound. Poor journalism indeed.

There is no fact that the big perp was shot from over 30 feet away. No fact that he was shot through the brain twice.

I will discount any more of his babble from here on out. He is a lazy writer.

How about death of a white 20 year old?

(unarmed white 20 year old killed by black cop in Salt Lake City two weeks ago)
