I support their freedom of speech. But they're shite-heads.

I'm pretty righty on lots of things. Exceptions include:

I'm not pro-Israel.
I don't mind gays or weed.
I'm very unsupportive of overseas military interventionist policy, i.e. the "Bush Doctrine".
I hate John McCain and Mike Huckabee with equal fervor.


I prefer Christians to Muslims by a large margin.
I like Western Civilization & the scientific method.
I really dislike Social Justice Warriors, and I almost never vote social issues. I'm a low taxes, anti-immigration, personal responsibility voter.

I'm a recovering Libertarian, and finding myself to be more a Trad than anything.

I would assume the "kid" refers to the 12-year old in Cleveland who was killed by police with a toy gun. That was the worst of the 3 recent incidents, from what I've read.

I just don't know what's wrong with people. This is just so awful. Prayers for the families and friends of these officers.

The race baiters should be held accountable for inciting violence against police.

Great so we become like Europe in respect to freedom of speech...but then again that's how the SPLC bankrupted the Klan so maybe it's not a bad idea,

I'm sure this guy had some serious issues with LE. He sure helped the militarized evolution of peace officers with his actions.

Stupid question. Flipping around today and saw some press conference about the investigation surrounding this shooting. So the stupid question. Why is there an investigation? Don't we know who did the shooting? Isn't that person dead? If so, why is time, effort and resources being devoted to an investigation? Do they think there were other shooters?

You're actually, probably, the future Conservative majority of this country.

Just remember when us old Conservatives are dead and gone ... never trust the fricking liberal progressive socialists - never. They are evil.

And always remember that no sociopolitical outlook is the one that everyone is going to adhere to ... therefore, align yourself with those closest to yours, be willing to make concessions that are not harmful to the general agreement on the main points ... and then be willing to lay waste to the vocal minority fricks (politically speaking) that want to do nothing but destroy everything they touch. Show them no fricking mercy.

That's the only hope for the future of this country.

If by "held accountable" you mean that they should be skinned alive ... yes, then I agree with you.

I'd guess they're mainly investigating motive.

aingt nobody gona be held accountable for nothing. the media will bury anything that doesn't warrant more $$ for their coffers. that's what everyb it of this is about anyhow. people see what the networks want them to see, and what will benefit the bottom line of the corporations.. who own the politicans on both sides. it's a corrupt system and anyone who thinks otherwise is foolish

The NAACP has chimed-in now ... blaming it on slack gun laws in NYC and threatening any whites who are not happy with how things are transpiring.

NAACP Blames Guns, Not Anti-Cop Protests, For Murdered Police Officers

The NAACP Legal Defense Fund came out swiftly with a statement condemning the brutal murder of two New York City police officers Sunday, while exploiting the event to demand gun control and trying to claim it had no connection to the recent protests against police following the deaths of Michael Brown and Eric Garner.

“Yesterday’s fatal shooting of two police officers in New York is shocking and tragic. The NAACP Legal Defense Fund and the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights under Law extend their condolences to the families and colleagues of both officers, and we stand with the residents of New York City in mourning this senseless loss of life,” began the statement.

“These two killings…like so many other unfortunate incidences of gun violence, provide a stark example of the need for sensible gun control measures,” the statement continued.

“While some may suggest a causal link between these killings and the recent protests and activism focused on the serious issue of police violence against unarmed African Americans, we caution against escalating an already tense national state through rumor and conjecture,” the statement from the NAACP’s legal arm claimed.

“Whatever motivation lay in the apparently troubled mind of the now deceased shooter of these officers, there is no connection between the peaceful protests of thousands of people of all races all over the country and, indeed, around the world, and this hideous act of violence.”

Seems to me this kind of murder of cops is just going to make the police forces nationwide hunker down even more and shoot first and ask questions later.

Any police officer who was a cynic before is even more so now. Any officer who is/was not, probably now may rethink their approach a little bit.

In other words, I don't think this helps the civil rights cause AT ALL.

Given the comments he made on Instagram about it being retaliation for Eric Garner and the several that supported those comments, then it probably warranted a look.

Also he killed his girlfriend on top of it. Who's to say her and the cops were the only ones.

Just like shooting a twelve year old doesn't help public relations. This isn't going to end ever.

It truly is counterproductive. But that's the mentality from a group of people who think burning down their own neighborhood in protest is productive.
