It’s hard to fathom something this juvenile and misguided coming from a paper that once pretended to have high ideals.
The school in question, shows it’s complete disregard for civic responsibility by lowering the flag to half staff for a juvenile delinquent. Okay, he wasn’t a juvenile any longer. Good point.
Here was an adult robbing a convenience store, roughing up the person on duty there (owner?).
Lowering the flag in effect memorializes Brown, and telegraphs the student body, that thsi was a good man, someone to emulate. The police are always wrong, you are always right, even if you’re committing crimes or threatening a police officer’s life.
I’ve talked about empowerment, and what could be a better example? This young man was hell bent on killing that police officer for telling him to get out of the street.
Imagine that! This kid was so out of control, he wanted to kill a man that was actually helping him not to be a danger to himself. Get out of the street, so you’ll live. Do the papers or television folks add that in? No. Unarmed is the more important term here, to them.
I was down in Montebello last week around 12:30 in the morning. I was driving down a little street coming up to a stop sign. I noticed something odd. Lights were going off then on. It took me a moment, but I realized a person was walking across the street, dressed in black. I couldn’t see the person at all. All I could do was see the lights flicker off then on again as this person crossed the street.
Luckily I wasn’t going fast. If I had been in-between intersections going 30 miles per hour, I could very easily have run this guy down. Even after I knew a person was there, I could barely see them.
Brown could easily have had his life saved by this officer. For this he wanted the officer dead.
The Post can’t grasp this. The school officials can’t. The student body probably can’t either.
We are raising a generation of foreign nationals on our own soil. They hate our nation without cause, because they have been told they have been cheated.
We have the idiots leading the brigade.
The Post would be doing the biggest service of the last 50 years, if it would just stop publishing.
They could save all the money it cost to produce, and improve the life of every citizen in the process.
The Flag of the USA today does not have or is not in the spirit of the USA flag for which I felt duty to in WWII or for which my brother was killed for on Okinawa. The ‘spirit’ has been corrupted by the likes of Obama and his enablers including some high military officials and politicians. I don’t see the ‘Spirit of ‘76’ being in or revived by all the different/various cultures influencing the USA today.
