Proof that small things amuse small minds like someone gives a crap.
BLM isn’t about Laquan or any other black person. It’s about revolution.
Like white liberals who ride their bikes naked through the middle of town for protests, both groups are doing nothing but showing their butts.
“Amazon must love them some BLM”
The exact same thought occurred to me.
Yes, it was flat out murder.
Disrupting Flack Friday shopping is flat out ridiculous.
If someone empties an auto pistol as fast as they can, you also have 6 seconds to stop them. How do you propose to do that? Plug the barrel with your finger?
Did you WATCH the video?
Don't answer, rhetorical question.
This sounds like the beginning of another Jackson/Sharpton “Protection Racket” shakedown to me.
“This sure is a nice business you have here, and we sure don’t want anything bad to happen to it, now do we.”
No reparations, no peace.
What amount of reparations is sufficient? Is there a number/amount/limit?
I think black Friday is ridiculous by itself, but that's another discussion.
Why weren't each and every one of those "protesters" arrested and charged with disorderly conduct, unlawful assembly, creating traffic hazards, and more?
I work in downtown Chicago. That bullshit yesterday happened not terribly far from where I work. I'll tell you flat out I don't feel safe commuting into the city anymore to go to work without conceal/carrying. I'm at the point I ignore the stupid "no guns" signs because I believe them to be a violation of my CONSTITUTIONAL, GOD GIVEN right to defend myself from those thugs.
I've been on vacation the last ten days, I go back to work on Monday. I'm carrying.
Lol.
First, that was a Chicago Police Officer who emptied his 9mm.
Second, it took him longer than six seconds.
Third, did you see ANY ONE of the other Chicago Police Officers in the five video's that were released yelling at Officer Van Dyke to STOP or NOT shoot?
NO.
It doesn't take six seconds to yell DON'T SHOOT or HOLD YOUR FIRE when you're a cop and your life wasn't in danger in that scenario.
There was NO REASON for Officer Van Dyke to have his pistol drawn in the first place, much less to have fired a single shot.
I'm just glad he was nice about it. ;-)
The shock factor of the sudden killing precluded anyone stopping him, I suspect you know that. I really don’t understand your stance on this. It seems to me you are dredging up outrage in the wrong spot.
No I did not, I am sick of killing.
When I was much younger, one of my unit's training drills was to practice disarming armed assailants, and each of us became quite good at it.
In one of our drills, you were in a 20' X 20' room facing a man with his pistol drawn and aimed at you. To pass this drill, I had to move across that 20' X 20' room and disarm this man before he could realize he was under attack, his brain could send the signal to his trigger finger, and he could pull the trigger.
I believe this police officer had been trained to draw his pistol and fire if he felt his life was in danger, and to continue to fire until that danger had been neutralized. He was only following his training, and if there is any blame to be placed on his actions, blame his training.
If #BlackLivesMatter tries to violently shut down all commerce in all cities they will just open a lot of commerce in private security companies, law enforcement, firearms and ammunition manufacturing, emergency hospitals and trauma centers, prisons, funeral homes, cemeteries, crematoriums... and demonicrat voter registration offices.
Then you are not qualified to post on the topic, or accuse anyone (me) of dredging up outrage. You have zero clue what you're posting about, by your own admission.
