>>>Blacks are killed by cops at two and a half times the rate of whites<<<

I think you have that backwards.

I believe more Whites as a percentage of Population are killed by the Police than Blacks are killed by the Police.

That makes the entire BLM narrative a LIE.

More whites get killed by cops but not more percentage-wise. However, the fact that blacks kill cops at five times the rate they are killed by cops definitely blows up BLM’s narrative.

Thanks for the correction.

BLM is just another Liberal group that doesn’t let facts get in the way of their goal.

“Ride of the Valkyries”.

It is stereotypical, but crank it up so it can be heard for miles before the trucks arrive...

Good!

This enemy will NOT be denied its rope - it doesn’t wait for us to sell it to him, he steals it. Fantastic!

The more of this crap, the better. More and more people will realize that the Dems and their supporters represent chaos and danger, and they’ll vote for Trump (or, in the case of many leaning Dem, just stay home). 1968 all over again.

By the way, shutting down one freeway is just a PITA. Wait until FRIDAY....


FYI, below is the text of an email that I received. Please feel free to copy and paste it - and forward it to everyone you know:

Please forward this to anyone that you know who lives, works or is planning to be in or near the cities listed below on Friday.
What appears below the line is taken directly from a webpage (cited at the end) – anyone may agree or disagree with the editorial comments – just take the warning about where NOT to be very seriously.

There’s a war in America right now. Black vs. white. Citizen vs. police officer. Race grievances have become an industry, and business is booming.

The rage is boiling over across the nation. First, videos emerged that showed the graphic deaths of two black men at the hands of police, with what appears to be no reason. Protests erupted over these deaths, and then they became violent as one man shot 11 police officers and 2 citizens at a rally in Dallas, Texas, killing 5. That sparked a war on law enforcement officers and a nationwide spree of violence against cops. Some people are even more extreme, declaring open season on white people in general.

But it’s about to get even worse.

The hacktivist group Anonymous is now calling for nationwide Day of Rage protests on Friday, July 15th. The video below promotes the protests.(WARNING: There is some disturbing and graphic violence in this video):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uEWtsSffvQg [About 5 ½ minutes; it isn’t necessary to watch it for purposes of the warning being given].

While I firmly believe that we are being distracted and manipulated so that we stop paying attention to the machinations and corruption of presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton, the fact remains that being anywhere near these protests greatly increases the chance that you could become a victim of violence. When the mob mentality takes over, normally decent people can commit heinous acts.

Use this as a list of places NOT to be on Friday the 15th. While the video by Anonymous does specify non-violence and denounces the actions taken against police officers that were not involved in these deaths, with the tagline “Day of Rage” I think it’s safe to expect emotions to be running very high on both sides of the line. No matter how great your empathy might be for those who have unjustly lost their lives, these protests are not safe places to be.

These are the locations and times for the protests:

I strongly feel it won’t end with people marching and chanting.

The safest crowd is one that you’re not in. All of these places have the strong potential to become battle zones. Stay home.

And if your home happens to be in or near one of these areas, be aware that your city could be under siege. Make plans to stay safe and hunker down with emergency food and purified water, or to go someplace safer.

Stay safe, friends.
