What About Black Lives Matter?
For two years the protest movement called "Black Lives Matter" has caused demonstrations all around the nation. It was triggered by the police shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, MO in August of '14. It holds that racist police are the greatest threat to young black men. This has triggered riots, and the murder or attempted murder of police and an attempt to eliminate grand juries when police use lethal force.
The U.S. Justice Department has completely disproven that Brown was merely a Gentle Giant and was shot in cold blood while trying to surrender. Even though it was shown that Brown had just stolen from and intimidated a store owner and was charging at the officer who shot him, and had attempted to get the officer's gun, he is venerated as a martyr.As a result, officers are backing off in the face of the hatred which is relentlessly directed at them on the street and in the media. As a result, violent crime is on the rise. The question becomes do the police pose the greatest threat to young black men? Or is it the far greater threat of black-on-black crime?

shared by countless others!! We also know
that PC is, in a word (or two) BS. Onward!
I think human nature is basically tribal. We like what we feed comfortable around, and we dont like what we dont feel comfortable around. Thats why there was Chinatown, Koreatown, Spanish Harlem, etc. Eventually the immigrants melted into the American culture enough that the americans accepted them into their tribes.
When government forces people to live together, it just encourages hatred for the people in the "other" tribes.
I dont see anything wrong with people wanting to live around others who have similar values. Thats what formed tribes in the first place.
Everyone is a member of one "tribe" or another if we think about it, and political correctness be damned, whats wrong with it. There can be tribes of people who are totally open to immigration and melting of various tribes together. Thats ok, but dont force me to do it if I dont feel comfortable with some of the tribes.
Again, political correctness be damned, but I dont happen to like the muslim culture and I dont want to live around people who profess to kill me if I am an infidel (which I am). Mormons dont go to the same degree, but I dont feel comfortable around their non accepting religion.
If I lived in totally black neighborhoods that I have seen, the first thing I would do is MOVE. Why do they call the three most important things about real estate- location, location, and location Sometimes it really is about geographical location, but often its who else lives there- rich, poor, entitled, violent, etc.
I think that we could do a Kickstarter of that invention and sell it to the police in any given metro area.
suspicion of terrorism
(terrorism not defined.)
added suspicion of supporting terrorism
(still not defined)
now they are going after the street gangs after all who is going to complain. But what about the people living on the street?
(still not defined)
along with that no rights that was said not for foreigners
(but it wasn't written done anywhere)
and we still have 100 miles from any coast or border with the entire Constitution suspended.
regardless of citizenship and coast lines include navigable waters so the Mississippi and much of the Ohio and Missouri and a number of other areas are affected. Columbia, Sacramento.
85 Senators and Lightning Boy Obeyme signed it and presented it on national TV in front of the Original Document he had just crapped on.
No move to impeach
No negative comments on Cspan
(Congress was you say culpable)
SCOTUS hiding behind a think wall of dignity waiting for a case to be filed
An incompetent Attorney General picked for her loyalty to anything and anybody but justice.
Ditto Media
Ditto educators well some body has to teach snowflakes how to fall and melt.
Military leadership shy's away from testifying before Congress much less upholds it's own oath of office.
Political party's ?? Ha ha Where?
and the population?
Deserving every bit of what they asked for and what they got and what they are going to get.
BOHICA!
Still goinjg to vote left wing?
EDIT: added a clarification.
Greed
Is the creed.
It provides a lot of facts and thus food for thought.
