Van Jones Attacked Police As "Blue Polyester Fools" Whose Only Thought Is "Obey, Obey, Obey"

While I appreciate the often self-sacrificing efforts of LEOs in defense of the civil order, and find both Van Jones’ invective and the notion that his ideas are ‘liberating’ both offensive and absurd, there is something unpleasant about the institutional culture of law-enforcement agencies that his “whose only thought is ‘Obey, Obey Obey’” does capture rather eloquently.

When you make your decisions based on emotion instead of reason, you end up doing things you (and everyone else) regret later.

Wait, I just wrote the history of the Democratic party in ONE SENTENCE!

kristinn, you’re amazing. :)

No wonder Obama wants his own “citizen” security force; one that’s funded as well as the military.

All righty then! While officers do have a level of discretion (spirit of the law vs. letter of the law) what do you want these guys to do? Disobey the laws they are sworn to uphold? Make it up as they go? What a load of tripe!

I'm tired of hearing some Freepers castigating all cops for the sins of a minority of cops. No one on this board that I know of supports the cops breaking the laws they are sworn to uphold. Really immature s@%t that mirrors the childish posture of the left.

Sheesh, ‘Blue polyester fools’ that’s it? I’m a cop and I’ve been called worse than that here on FR.

hahahahahaha. I wonder what Van Jones’ FR screen name is?

I wonder if he brought donuts to the rally? And, you know something? I think if this was an FR anti-police thread, there’d be alot of jokes about that smiling cops big belly! And those Nazi-like uni’s their wearing too! Peep that BLACK WEB GEAR boys and girls.

Boy that cop looks like he’s preggers don’t he? Maybe ol’ Van did bring some donuts to the show, hence the police smile. He’s been bought off.. wink, wink.

Just for grins, somebody post that picture of all the cops cars parked in front of the donut shop. That’s a hoot.

No kidding. Van Jones would fit in really well on a lot of threads I've seen lately.

The worst part is...they were there to protect his pathetic butt, keep the mind numb minions listening safe and ensure that he was able to exercise his first amendment right to say horrible things about them.

There are some of us who appreciate what you do.

It is funny to listen to all of Obama’s zombies calling others zombies and racists. They must have believed Farrakahn when he said black people could not be racist.

"The report's other quote from Jones is, " "We’re gonna fight together and love together and liberate these blue polyester fools too."

The difference between Freepers and Van Jones' attitude toward LEOs is that Freepers want LEOs to leave them alone.

Van Jones' want to turn LEO's into thugs.

When Van Jones says 'liberate' what do you think he means?

Which is worse? People who wants cops to leave them alone of people who want to turn cops into thugs?
