Importantly, the police *did* do something wrong.
It used to be that if a criminal killed a police officer, they were guaranteed a quick trip to execution, with no futzing around. But because of liberal judges and politicians, killing a police officer almost guarantees that the murderer will *not* be executed.
Therefore, police officers are in the uncomfortable position of having to *not* arrest those that threaten to kill them, but to carry out executions on the spot by gunning down those who even offer to kill them.
Fortunately, ordinary citizens do not have to suffer all the constraints that police officers do when confronting an armed felon. Not only can ordinary citizens kill violent felons in the commission of a felony, but they can shoot even when a police officer must hesitate to do so.
Perhaps eventually police may start “calling an armed citizen” when they need to confront a dangerous felon.
A real case of “didnt do nuffin”
It's no more "OK" to shoot a cop than it is to shoot any other citizen. On the other hand, it's not any worse either.
In some ways, it’s worse to shoot a cop.
Shooting a cop is shooting a representative of all of us. Not the government, but in reality, all of us as people.
Secondly, as citizens, we have the ability to close with or run away from dangerous situations. Cops do not.
Finally, the Black community expects cops to come and save lives when they are being robbed, assaulted, when someone can’t breath, when a senior has a heart attack, when a baby is very sick. They get there before the ambulance, and often it’s the cops who render the immediate action first aid that keeps the victim alive till the EMTs get there.
If it’s OK to kill those people you want come when you need help, why should they come when any call for aid can be a setup for an ambush?
Bill Ayers wrote a book dedicated to all people who had killed police officers.
To make sure that he ‘honored’ the killers enough - Bill Ayers listed them by name. Each killer - each monsters who had gunned down a policeman was given his own line in the front of “Prairie Fire”
We're dealing with monsters.
To the extent that most murders happen between people who know one another and the crime is deeply personal in nature, I agree that shooting a public officer is somewhat more heinous, because it is an act of defiance against the entire society's principle of the rule of law.
I remember my great uncle in the 19th century—a French-Canadian—got into a revolt in Western Canada. When the revolt faultered and was put down, he fled to the USA. He said: “I had to leave Canada because I killed a couple of men—but, its OK, they were just Englishmen.”
Yes. So that’s what this homicidal frenzy toward cops is all about. How- HOW did this guy escape prosecution for his crimes?
I didn’t know this about the book. Nothing is too vile for him to do or have done. Speaking of things that should be purged...
What's her FR nick? Wait around, we may find out.

William Ayers’ forgotten communist manifesto: Prairie Fire
posted: October 22, 2008
William Ayers is a communist. But don’t take my word for it. He said so himself:
And not some nicey-nice peace-and-love kind of communist. Through his group the Weather Underground, Ayers was planning to “seize power” in a violent communist takeover of the United States:
The quotes above were scanned directly from a now long-forgotten book entitled Prairie Fire: The Politics of Revolutionary Anti-Imperialism, which was written and published in 1974 by William Ayers, Bernardine Dohrn and other members of the Weather Underground. In this slim volume, which functioned as the Weather Underground’s ideological manifesto, Ayers declares himself to be a communist, and announces that his group’s bombing campaign was intended to start a violent revolution to overthrow the American government.
Ayers and Obama worked together for years on a school reform program called the Chicago Annenberg Challenge.
• Ayers and Obama also served together on the board of the Woods Fund of Chicago, a separate charity organization.
• Obama had his political coming-out party in William Ayers’ home.
• Ayers mentions Obama by name in a book he wrote in 1997, and mentions that the two are very close neighbors.
• Obama gave a short glowing review of that same Ayers book for the Chicago Tribune.
• Obama and Ayers were both presenters together on a panel about juvenile justice (organized by Michelle Obama).
• Both Obama and Ayers were close friends with the same person, Rashid Kalidi.
• There are also several unverified rumors swirling around that have not been documented: That Ayers may have helped to write part (or all) of Obama’s autobiography; that Obama and Ayers shared an office space together for three years, on the same floor of the same building in Chicago; and that Ayers and Obama may have known each other as far back as 1981.
(Sorry, GOPJ. I missed your reply- along with some others. Arrgghh)
Oh, I know about Ayers & 0bama. I’ve known about SDS
Weathermen since I was about 15 years old.
There’s no such thing as the “peace loving, bleeding heart, social justice”, kind of communist. They’re all ruthless exploiters & tyrants- murderers. The “warm & fuzzy” is just a lure.
This link is new to me, though. Thanks!
