The United States admitted that more needs to be done to uphold its civil rights laws........."The tragic deaths of Freddie Gray in Baltimore, Michael Brown in Missouri, Eric Garner in New York, Tamir Rice in Ohio and Walter Scott in South Carolina have ... challenged us to do better and to work harder for progress," he said.

The U.S. is currently undergoing a Universal Periodic Review of its rights record, something all 193 U.N. countries must undergo every four years

No doubt the US is the biggest violator of civil right on the planet. Probably why so many folks are trying to flee to cuba or angola or venezuela or zimbabwe huh? Maybe china or norf korea.

No mention of the tragic deaths of Liquori Tate, etc.

[NormsRevenge]

Obviously, WE should be under UN control.. all weapons confiscated, massive imprisonment of populations that do not comply..

Sadly, our own gubamint is the biggest culprit in taking us down this path.

This is Bull Cheese.

It’s not enough that signs are pointing to a Nationalized and Federal Police Force, but now we are apologizing to the freaking United Nations?

This nation cannot get rid Bucko Fama soon enough.

[Robe]

I guarantee that a Nationalized and Federal Police Force will not happen in South Carolina, prob Texas also.
If they want CWII, it will start here.
BTW.. We've learned a lot since the last one

[Mollypitcher1]

Tate and all the others who have been killed by the animals loose on our streets.

[rawcatslyentist]

Here comes the pitch for the National Civilian Community Corps!

[JimRed]

Yes, we MUST do much better on policing. Cops don’t kill nearly enough violent criminals! The four scum who killed the cops in Hattiesburg come to mind. They should have died resisting arrest.

Yeah, OK, even they deserve a fair trial. But I’ll bet I’ll be dead before they are executed!

[Responsibility2nd]

I’d like to take you up on that guarantee. But Jade Helm is a fact. And whether or not the US government is using this exercise as a template for overthrowing the Constitution and establishing FEMA camps for control of the population remains to be seen.

I’d like to think Jade Helm is nothing more than imbecilic bluffing and mind games on behalf of Obama, but we know better than to trust that idiot.

Interesting. An African-American President appoints an African-American Attorney General who investigates the African-American-lead police force of an African-American city with an African-American mayor. About their racism. Racism against African-Americans.

40 years ago, this could have been the script for a satirical comedy.

My son is a 1st Lt Infantry Platoon Leader and soon to be Captain. I wholly trust our soldiers, they will never raise arms against US citizens. The Jade Helm “The sky is Falling” types need to take a Valium and have a nice nap
