A lynch mob is all fun and games until someone actually gets lynched.
At first everyone has a good time marching around and shouting “Black Lives Matter” and “I Can’t Breathe.” The police are accused of being racist killers by the defenders of actual racist killers like Mumia Abu Jamal. Every community organizer within a thousand miles shows up to brandish signs claiming cops are randomly killing innocent black men even as he spits and throws bottles at any cop within reach. Not to mention engaging in the occasional act of convenience store redistribution.
The Mayor of New York City announces that his ridiculously famous son has to be afraid of the police. Obama agrees that his imaginary son also has to be afraid of the police. Their claims are equally plausible.
The lynch mobs make it their mission to invade holiday events, protest parades and scream racist rants. Then they begin attacking police officers. The media insists that protests whose participants chant, “What do we want? Dead cops!” are peaceful.
This homicidally insane definition of “peaceful” had only previously been applied to Islam.
And then, shockingly, surprisingly, out of the blue, protests led by Al Sharpton featuring violent attacks on cops finally achieve their goal with the murder of two police officers.
Ismaaiyl Abdullah Brinsley announced on Instagram, “I’m Putting Wings On Pigs Today. They Take 1 Of Ours…Let’s Take 2 of Theirs.” #ShootThePolice #RIPErivGarner #RIPMike Brown.
It may have been the first murder that came with its own progressive social media hashtags.
But even the most violently peaceful lynch mobs eventually end with a lynching. There is no such thing as a peaceful lynch mob. There is no such thing as peacefully supporting a lynch mob.
Al Sharpton is not just an MSNBC talk show host. He isn’t a goofy fellow who mispronounces things on the teleprompter. He isn’t these things just as he wasn’t a funny fat man in a track suit wearing a gold medallion the size of the Bronx around his neck.
Those are the things that make him seem like a joke. And he isn’t a joke. He leads lynch mobs.
Sharpton led a lynch mob through Crown Heights and racist violence tore the neighborhood apart and took lives. He led a lynch mob to a store in Harlem and the store burned with employees inside.
That is what lynch mobs do.
Since then Sharpton slimmed down and swapped out colorful track suits for expensive custom made Soho pinstripe suits. He became a regular visitor to the White House and City Hall. He spoke at the Democratic National Convention and got a slot on that party’s favorite news network.
And then twenty years later he brought back the lynch mobs. And once again people died.
Two cops are dead in New York City because Barack Obama, Bill de Blasio and the Democratic Party embraced Sharpton and everything he stood for. They embraced his racist ideology of hate.
They made their party into the party of crime.
Officers Rafael Ramos and Wenjian Liu weren’t white. Their only crime was being cops in a city whose radical left-wing mayor and media had signed off on an anti-cop campaign. Their deaths are a bloody reminder that black racism isn’t limited to white people.
The elites celebrating the return of left-wing rule to New York City after decades of Republicans in Gracie Mansion had forgotten the most important lesson that New Yorkers of all races had learned during the years of Sharpton’s terror; black racist lynch mobs kill as surely as white ones do.
Now Bill de Blasio is wiping away crocodile tears at a press conference while Al Sharpton and the gang of gutter activists that trails these protests is pretending to be shocked and surprised that their lynch mobs actually killed two cops. The same media that had been ridiculing the NYPD for its “hysterical” warnings that the racist lynch mobs would cost lives is also putting on its best shocked face for the cameras.
Sharpton is doing what he always does best: Playing provocateur and then trying to wash his hands of the consequences. Al never kills anyone. He just riles up the mob and someone in the mob does the dirty work. Al works the mob and through him the mob has a direct line to the White House.
When FDR put Hugo Black in the Supreme Court, he put the Klan on the Court. The Democratic Party’s hate groups and lynch mobs may have changed color, but everything else stayed the same.
When Obama made Sharpton his messenger to the black community, when Bill de Blasio let Sharpton and his people control city government and when Attorney General Eric Schneiderman promised that Sharpton would have an “annex” in the state capitol, the Democratic Party embraced the man whose racist rhetoric took more lives than the 1963 Birmingham church bombing.
The Democratic Party and its top politicians didn’t just endorse Sharpton. They endorsed his tactics and his hate. Now the blood of two murdered police officers is on their hands.
“The mayor’s hands are literally dripping with our blood because of his words, actions and policies,” the Patrolmen’s Benevolent Association has said. “The blood of 2 executed police officers is on the hands of Mayor de Blasio,” is the message from the Sergeants Benevolent Association.
But Bill de Blasio did not act alone. He did what the rest of his party had gotten used to doing. The Democratic Party reverted to its roots of a party of crime. It forgot the lesson of the Willie Horton ad. It tested the waters by promoting “sentencing reform” for drug dealers and then it went all in by race-baiting the Michael Brown and Eric Garner cases. It was so enthused about recruiting community organizers and increasing black turnout that it forgot that lynch mobs don’t vote. They kill.
Suddenly the tactics that Sharpton had pioneered in his track suit days became the face of the Democratic Party. New Tawana Brawleys were crawling out from under every rock in the nation. Innocents senselessly attacked by vile cops whose stories turned out to be about as real as Sharpton’s tax records. Everyone was having fun telling lies and screaming hate and then cops began to die.
Now the Democratic Party’s top crooks are clumsily trying to wash away the cop blood on their hands.
Attorney General Eric Holder can’t headline Sharpton’s events and then pretend to be upset when two cops are killed. Neither can Bill de Blasio or Barack Obama. Their phony condemnations don’t come with a promise to abandon the pro-crime politics and policies that led to the murder of two police officers.
Targeting the police makes it difficult for the police to defend themselves or anyone else. When the police can’t defend themselves, then they pull back. When they pull back, crime takes off. Cities become terrifying places. The middle class flees. Thriving cities go bankrupt and become permanent welfare cases. They become Democratic Party plantations. That’s what Obama and De Blasio wanted.
There is one fundamental question that must be asked of Obama, of Holder, of de Blasio and the media; are we a nation of laws or a nation of lynch mobs?
Obama claimed that the racist protests were needed because a “country’s conscience has to be triggered by some inconvenience.” Attorney General Eric Holder said that the protests provided “momentum to a necessary conversation.”
Ismaaiyl Abdullah Brinsley concluded Holder’s conversation by reminding us of what the stakes are.
We cannot function as a nation when a political party representing half the country decides that it wants to stand with criminals against police officers, with racists and race-baiters against working families and with lynch mobs against anyone who gets in their way.
It’s not only the blood of these two police officers that is on their hands, but the blood of every victim of crime who could have been saved if the Democratic Party had not embraced gun control, sentencing reform and criminal rights.
After Dukakis got thumped and Dinkins got dumped, the Democratic Party pretended to reform. It pretended to understand that Americans wanted it to stand with cops, not criminals.
Now it’s back to its criminal ways.
Lynch mobs have consequences. So do crack dealers, serial rapists and armed robbers. Standing up to crime also means standing up to politicians who support crime.
I heard this morning that NYPD has gone back in time. They said not to roll unless two units can respond to every call no matter what it is. Also, not to arrest anyone unless they absolutely have to. Merry Christmas NY, hope your Christmas shopping is all done so the burglars can take your gifts.
Another dispatch from the “Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it” file.
And a once great city begins to crumble with the rot it fosters.

And so we return to the late 1960’s... Having lived through them I can say that as far as I was concerned it took until we elected Reagen to deal with the overt hate and discontent of the Black community. I say overt because it merely went underground and like a cicada waited years before emerging from under the ground to make it’s shrill and annoying noises once again.
We as a nation once thought that forced integration and ample access to education would help the Black family and it’s sons and daughters. We were fools... the help we wanted to give was not what was desired. What was desired was a total reversal of roles. The Blacks in “General” wanted to be like the slave owners and masters of old.
Mind you there wouldn’t actually be slavery, just the acceptance that whatever a black person wanted or did was just fine and peachy. And everyone would ignore any negative consequences.
And now... now we are once again at a point in time and history, which way will it go this time? Back to a slow simmer of tensions between those who have and those who have not but desire what those who have do have? Or do we go into a time a overt conflict where the four horsemen of the apocalypse ride?
I don’t know what will happen, all I know is that I personally feel like a watcher of a movie whose plot I have seen before and wonder what turn the director will present as the conclusion.

The democrats chose to politicize racial relations years ago, so yes they own these assassinations.
This what happens when you put Communists in charge.
These are the same people who called the police “pigs” in the 60s - same message, different terminology.
“Black Lives Matter”
Racists hate everyone not of their own race. Socialists try to focus all the Black racism and violence on whites, but they really can’t control race hate.
Do they really think that whites will be intimidated to become socialist with the threat of black racist murder? What idiots these ‘smart” people are.

That's what this common core crap is. It's Alice in Wonderland, except today's kids won't be able to read it, let alone understand the irony.
This is the perfect time of year to check out your nieces and nephews text books. The "college" level texts seem like 8th-9th grade level to me. I am no rocket scientist, but people who are paying 50,000 a year for a college education might want to pick up some of those text books.
Lynch mob is appropriate, but this is something more, a mob demanding the license to commit crime without retribution.
I agree. Dumb and dumber.
Exactly. Stocking up for the worst.
Daniel is a little bit over the top here.
