Philadelphia’s police union is blasting Hillary Clinton for inviting relatives of victims of police shootings to speak at the Democratic National Convention next week, but failing to include relatives of slain police officers.

John McNesby, president of the Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 5, said the union was “shocked and saddened” by the planned choice of speakers at the convention, which opens Monday in Philadelphia.

Sorry there FOP and Philly cops. I'm shocked that you're shocked at her actions. Guess you've been told otherwise, that she "cares" about you guys. Not so much. I wish you the best in covering the convention and hope everybody goes home each night safe and sound. But, please, keep your 6 covered.

I’m sure will be a spectacle. Travyon’s momma. Michael Brown’s momma. Some other mommas telling people what a good boy their sons were.

So the Democrats will be pushing more and more liberalism. Will they say global warming is the biggest threat mankind has ever faced???

They’re still reeling from the Philly mayor who couldn’t acknowledge an Islamic terrorist shooting of a police officer earlier this year, shouting Allahu Akbar even when it was caught on film!!!!

How about if the police in Philadelphia take the day off on the last day of the Convention?

This is going to backfire on Hillary BIGTIME!

The majority of Americans support the Police. The democrats and media's false narrative of police killing black people is failing.

The great thing about Trump is that he knows the power of Twitter and will be giving his commentary during the DNC convention. That’s something previous GOP nominees haven’t done.

Hillary Clinton has been in the thick of the left's support for cop-killing since the sixties.



Notice that this letter is from Berkeley. What was Hillary doing in Berkeley then? Working for Robert Treuhaft's soviet-front legal office. So, while working for one Stalinist agitator, she's penning gushing groupie letters to another gangster/Stalinist.

Nah. They’ll claim that the heat generated by the bullets that cops are pumping into innocent choir boys in the black community is what’s raising the glow-bull temps. Oh and high speed chases of perps in SUV’s is also raising the temp.

It would be funny if all the cops walked out on their security detail—chanting...protect yourselves, loud mouthed jerks.

Can’t wait to hear Chrissy Matthews commentary on this since he excoriated the RNC for allowing the Benghazi mom to speak. I’m sure he’ll be equally critical in this case </sarc>

Well, srsly? One mom is about justice. Some other moms are about “just-us”.

Anyone with half a brain can see where the Clinton Skank is going with this pandering and race baiting. What’s needed is for David Clarke, Allen West, Ben Carson, Thomas Sowell, and other clear-thinking Blacks to give her fat ass a good whippin.

Ignorance is not a sin; staying that way is.

And I mean that in all respect to the police officers, their families, and the union.

It’s hard when you learn (the hard way) that the Democrat Party, and Hillary in particular, wasn’t where it was at. But the good news is there’s time to do something about it, and that something is support the other candidate who actually cares about you and your country.

Welcome home, boys.

Hillary’s only hope to is incite blacks to vote for her in record numbers.

Severe race baiting until November. Hope it backfires with women, blue collar and Latinos.
