Will NYPD officers' murders derail the protest movement?

NEW YORK - Civil rights leaders Sunday condemned the ambush killings of two New York police officers and expressed fear that the backlash over the bloodshed could derail the protest movement that has grown out of the deaths of Michael Brown and Eric Garner.

In the raw hours following the killing of the officers, police union officials and politicians accused those who have protested the deaths of Garner and Brown of fanning anti-police fervor. Patrick Lynch, president of the Patrolman's Benevolent Association in New York, said there was "blood on the hands" of demonstrators and elected officials who have criticized police tactics....

My theory is that fire hoses would have stopped any and all riots immediately, and saved lives and money.

If a few violent LIEberals get wet and cold, tough shit!

I’d say the so-called protest movement has accomplished its goal. Weren’t they chanting, “What do we want? Dead cops.”

Yep! Their self-destruction isn’t quite as far along as I’d like it to be.

As if see-BS would ever allow that to happen, no matter how many cries for death to cops screamed by the “protestors”.

I think they are using protest movement interchangeably with the Obama/Holder/Sharpton inciting of riots and intentional law breaking by "protestors".

No. The America-hating bastards are just going to keep quiet for a few days. In the new year, they will call for a “conversation”, meaning that Whitey has to crawl to the meeting on his knees, beating his breast as he moves, asking for forgiveness for all the evils of the world that have been placed on his head.
Whitey will be allowed to beg for absolution, but will not be able to plead his case. He will be found guilty, and will be deprived of some more of his property and rights.

"To link the criminal insanity of a lone gunman to the peaceful protests and aspirations of many people across the country, including the attorney general, the mayor and even the president, is simply not fair," NAACP President Cornell William Brooks said on CBS' "Face the Nation."

What's not fair is going around stirring people up over lies about police "murdering innocent unarmed" blacks and trying to start riots over an issue that for the most part doesn't exist.

Whitey can crawl all he wants-whites will never surrender. Note the distinction.

Ha! Just what I was going to say! How long has this been going on now and I’m still trying to figure out just what the hell they are protesting. Are they saying they want nobody arrested who commits a crime? Are they saying that thugs who try to take a gun away from a cop should be allowed to take it? Are they saying cops should ignore people who sell illegal cigarettes even though the same liberal politicians now protesting the cops demanded in the first place? Are they saying cops before they make an arrest determine if the suspect has any health issues beforehand like a bad heart, asthma, diabetes like Eric Garner? Maybe they should ask that although it may be a little difficult if the suspect is resisting.

What protest movement— this is all run from the white hut.

“But if you go carryin’ pictures of Chairman Mao, you ain’t gonna make it with anyone anyhow” Revolution— the Beatles
wising up the idiot left.

The “protest” movement is one to provide the justification for a leftist run police state— think about that possibility. Place enough fear to the “normal” world and you can get rational people to agree to anything- especially as regards the purposeful breakdown of our systems, economic, medical, social, and...Constitutional. It is a fine line to walk and recognize this, FReepers. RINOs will go along with this— as we continue to lose our freedoms.

For the time being 2nd Amendment rights are not being “adjusted” but, with enough fear— they can be emplaced for
“security” with Ben Franklin spoke of.

American Thinker today— “Gangbangers Unbound” is a brilliant review of this plan— and how it is seamless with the greater plan of Alinsky and Cloward Piven.
