While police officers are getting murdered in Dallas and Baton Rouge, while others are under assault in Missouri, Georgia and Tennessee, while supporters of the Black Lives Matter movement attempt to justify the murders of police officers, the Democratic National Convention, AKA Hillary’s Coronation, will feature the mothers of black men who died in confrontations with police, thereby perpetuating the myth that there is systemic racism in police departments across the nation.
One mother who will speak will be Lezley McSpadden, the mother of Michael Brown, the “Gentle Giant” who burgled a convenience store, then attempted to grab the gun of officer Darren Wilson before Wilson shot and killed him. Barack Obama then referred to Brown’s death as “Walking while black,” as Ben Shapiro noted in a video explaining the incident. Brown’s death catalyzed the Black Lives Matter Movement that has engendered calls for murdering police officers.
Other mothers the DNC will feature include Sybrina Fulton, the mother of Trayvon Martin, who was shot by George Zimmerman after Martin repeatedly slammed Zimmerman’s head on the pavement, and Gwen Carr, the mother of Eric Garner, who was massively overweight and died when police administered a hold when he resisted arrest, and Geneva Reed-Veal, the mother of Sandra Bland, whose death was viewed by Black Lives Matter members as a murder that was covered up, although that, too has been debunked.
Hillary Clinton’s polling in the black community vis-à-vis Donald Trump is nearly as dominant as Barack Obama’s was against Mitt Romney in 2012; according to last week’s NBC News/Wall Street Journal/Marist poll, Clinton got 88% of the black vote in Ohio, Trump gather exactly 0%; in Pennsylvania, Clinton got 91% of the black vote; Trump again got 0%.
Hillary’s Coronation, will feature the mothers of black men who died in confrontations with police, thereby perpetuating the myth that there is systemic racism in police departments across the nation.
But the Democratic Party is taking no chances; by appealing to the Black Lives Matter movement, they expect to gin up their support in the black community, even if doing so means that they must implicitly target the police to do so.
it’s not about getting a high percentage of the black vote as much as it is scaring African Americans to the polls in numbers comparable to the unprecedented turnout in 2008 and 2012.
Divide and conquer.
The Brown and Martin events are old news. What difference, at this point, does it make?
What a disgrace.
Oh wow.... so the Clinton Convention shall be a CONVENTION OF CRIMINALS ! LOL
Wow. Hillary doubles down on wrong.
Hard to blame her. Thanks to enablers, it’s worked for her before.
Hitlery is indecent and has no shame.
One is only surprised that she didn’t invite the
Tsarnaev boy’s mother or that of the Dallas shooter...
The facts are not on the Gentle Giant's side.
Let's hope Lezley's DNC speech will spawn many an anti-Hillary commercial!
Enrage them! The more they act, the more votes for Trump!
You’re right.
This is going to put most of the media in a very awkward position.
I am glad she’s showing how low she’ll go. People need to personally witness her doing so in order to admit to themselves just how debase and evil the hag is.
...more votes for Trump
Yes it will, but I don't think it is any different than it's always been.
Trump is a lead pipe cinch.
But is it worth scaring the hell outa the soccer moms?
Trump can continue not spending money on campaign ads. They’ll be produced for free by the DNC.
Maybe....but if you were working-class democrats and kinda drawn to a civilized society...this won’t sell very well. This just opens the door for them to walk across the street to the Trump campaign and settle with him. I would take a guess that five to ten percent of Democrats feel this way.
Great news! Hillary will be closing the wrong side on this one, and people will see through it.
