NAACP Blames Cop Killings On Guns Not Sharpton, DeBlasio

Crime: Talking about a war on cops motivated by race-baiting is mere "conjecture," according to the NAACP, which says that the assassination of two New York cops is an "example of the need for strict gun-control measures."

After the tragic death of Eric Garner while resisting arrest, Mayor Bill de Blasio told New Yorkers how he had warned his biracial son to be wary of cops who, in any confrontation, might misinterpret his actions in a way they would not with a white suspect. Cops are the enemy, not the criminals they try to protect you from.

Well, on Friday night, police were called to the home of another big-city mayor, Chicago's Rahm Emanuel, after his son was mugged outside what should be the safest place in the Windy City. Emanuel's 17-year-old son went outside to make a phone call when he was attacked by two men who stole his cellphone.

Young Emanuel was put in a chokehold by one of his assailants and punched in the face by the other. He was not killed, as are many young Chicagoans, largely blacks killed by other blacks, as is the case across an America told to fear the police. When you are in trouble you call a cop, not the race-baiting Al Sharpton.

Both mayors, like their counterparts elsewhere, go nowhere without armed security. They know in their hearts that the problem in America's cities is a crime problem and not a race problem, as another former New York mayor, Rudy Giuliani, points out.

The poor NAACP keeps trying to make itself relevant.

It isn’t.

When you are in trouble you call a cop, not the race-baiting Al Sharpton.

Tell the black community to call Sharpton the next time they are in trouble.

The enemy are those who would unjustly deprive us of our natural rights to life, liberty and property, whether they do so outside the law as common criminals, outside the law under color of law as rotten cops, unjust prosecutors or corrupt judges, or by the corruption of the law itself as legislators or regulators and judges who arrogate legislative “authority” to their offices.

WAR ON COPS PING

[caww]

In one of his best known syndicated newspaper columns, Professor of Economics Walter Williams, an African American, wrote:

"Black people could benefit from an honest examination of the bill of goods they've been sold. Such an examination would not come from black politicians, civil rights leaders or the black and white liberal elite. Those people have benefited politically and financially from keeping black Americans in a constant state of grievance based on alleged racial discrimination. The long-term solution for the problems that many black Americans face begins with an absolute rejection of the self-serving agenda of hustlers and poverty pimps."

Crips on war...

So I guess what he is trying to say is that black people should not have access to guns....OK with me if that’s what they want in NY....stop them on the street, strip them down and take any weapons away from them, including the Mayor’s semi-black son.

The NAACP thinks that restricting the second amendment rights of law abiding white Americans will prevent law breaking black Americans from getting and using guns. That dog don’t hunt.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Waah... if we’d just grabbed all the guns in the city this would not have happened...

[VerySadAmerican]

The cops treat whites pretty awful, too. How many people on here say “Do what they say. Say ‘yes, sir’ and ‘no, sir’. Follow their commands. Show them respect.”

I wouldn’t mind having a little respect from them.

Better title:

“NAACP CALLS FOR A RETURN OF THE SLAVE CODES AND BLACK CODES Forbidding Blacks From Owning Or Using Guns!”

[GOPJ]

Thanks for putting me on the list...and thanks for the ping.

[realcleanguy]

The NAACP is guilty along with Al Sharpton. I’ve never in all my life read such BS or garbage in all my life! Those who believe this lie and the most dumbed down fools the world has ever seen

[matt1234]

They are openly trying to deprive us of our constitutional rights. Oh the irony.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

The NAALCP seems to be saying that black people cannot be trusted with guns.

[Sasparilla]

The libs are talking about the murdering 2X felon thus savage who broke a half dozen exising gun laws, not including 1st degree murder, when he killed the two policemen. Let’s make everything already illegal more illegal. The solution is obviously a total gun ban.
