Obama’s false racism claims are putting cops’ lives in danger

Hours before the murders of five police officers in Dallas, Texas, President Obama was again spouting false claims about racism by the police. He sees racism whenever there is any disparity in outcomes, no matter what the cause.

Obama and others inflame passions, but take no responsibility, and instead use events to push for more gun control. Yet, shouting racism can endanger the lives of police officers. The Dallas police chief tells us one of the shooters “wanted to kill white people, especially white officers.”

After the Trayvon Martin case, there were numerous cases around the country of blacks attacking whites and invoking Martin’s name.

Let’s not forget that NYPD cops Rafael Ramos and Wenjian Liu were executed by a black man who was angry about the shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo.

Obama and his administration spoke out repeatedly on the Martin and Brown cases. They repeatedly claimed racism was involved, but in fact there’s no evidence of that in either case.

Obama is also wrong, as he was on Thursday, to infer racism from higher arrest rates or prison-sentence lengths. “African Americans are arrested at twice the rate of whites,” he said. What he failed to note is that blacks commit murder at almost six times the rate whites do.

“African-American and Hispanic population, who . . . .

The image below was posted on Facebook by a user called Prince Mamuhammad, whose profile includes posts talking of 'war with the white male'.

The image has been reported to Facebook but the social media website refused to take it down, saying it does not violate the company's 'community standards'.

Facebook has ruled that this picture does not 'promote graphic violence'.

When a cop or someone (no matter what the color) else kills a black person for whatever reason, their motive is evil white racism. When black people or Muslims kill hundreds of people WHILST SAYING IT’S BECAUSE THEY HATE WHITE PEOPLE AND WANT TO KILL THEM it’s impossible to know their reasons. Bullshit.

So thankful that Mr. Obama has about 6 months left before the new sheriff comes to town. The only thing I feel bad for him is that Mr. Obama is going to leave a big mess for him to clean up.

Here’s the connection between RAP/HIP-HOP singers and VIOLENCE against Police (that they advocate in their lyrics:

Though it’s understandable that “Professor Griff” didn’t know Micah Johnson, the Dallas police murderer/sharpshooter/terrorist, when was pictured him, Johnson was no doubt inspired by him (and his anti-cop (btw also anti-semitic):

Here’s the historical perspective (cops way back in 1990 protested Public Enemy’s lyrics):

OKLAHOMA CITY — Police put city officials on notice that off-duty security will be hard to come by if the rap group Public Enemy is booked to play here, so the city decided against a concert by the band.

Police oppose the group because of lyrics to some of their songs, said P. D. Taylor, president of the local Fraternal Order of Police.

The police group voted last fall not to provide off-duty security if Public Enemy performed in the city.

The city decided not to book the band for a concert this summer at Myriad Convention Center, said Pat Downes, director of public facilities. Downes said the show would have been impossible without the off-duty security officers.
