So the question is:

Who, exactly, is pushing this meme of “Black men are being indisciminately killed by police officers in unprecedented numbers” (which is a terrible misrepresentation)….

And the other question is Why are “they” pushing such a meme, and why now?

I mean, the number of back men killed by other black men (not cops at all, and not white cops) is larger by a significant factor…Why are they pushing the meme that the black men need “Justice” and such and blaming police (rather than the society they have created)?

I mean, I expect that the Mike Brown thing was pushed to rile the black voters to rally them to vote. But what is the advantage now? The elections are over, so really…WHY?

What is the game plan?

Dec 7

Yeah, Pearl Harbor Day.

A “sneak” attack on our forces in Pearl Harbor.

Lots of men killed, lots of ships damaged, lots of planes destroyed.

But really, was it a sneak attack? Or was it just the fact that at the time, the military leaderships was inept and too bureaucratic to be able to do their jobs?

Either way, remember the men killed that day, and the many individual acts of Heroism that occurred.

And remember that Japan, after being squeezed into this action, got the war they wanted.

Sending a message:

So the Grand Jury decided NOT to charge Officer Daniel Pantaleo with the death of Eric Garner.

Ok. evidence shows he died of  heart attack, and not from the chokehold.
I can buy that:  Don’t struggle with police when arrested (and don’t break the law) and none of this would have happened.

Eric Garner WAS breaking the law, no matter how stupid you might think the law was (hey, the pack of cigarettes from which those “looseys” came from  was taxed, so the State got their money….even if selling a “loosey” was illegal). But lets not discuss that right now.

Do ya know who DID get indicted (and jailed) over this incident? The dude who filmed it. Seems that somehow, Police observed him putting a .25 ACP handgun in the waistband of another person….just before he was searched {Cough THROWDOWN! Cough} and charged him with the possession of a firearm….. Interesting that Ramsey Orta got tossed in jail…..

That’ll each people who film incidents involving the police to release their video….Won’t it?

Tell me again about coincidences? And that the “Blue Line” doesn’t exist? (especially in New York!)

Y’know, the media

Or, at least, whoever holds their leash, has accomplished a great deal with the sensationalization of  Mike Brown’s death at the hands of (now exonerated) officer Darrin Wilson.

Yes, they stirred up the ghetto people (some small percentage of whom likely voted in the midterm elections….maybe)….Yes, they got the whole Black against White thing going again, as it had faded in the time since the Trayvon Martin debacle….. Yes, they stirred up the welfare underclass (at least the black portion). Yes, they got riots to occur under the guise of protests…(one wonders how many of the rioters (as opposed to protesters) were local to the area and how many were….imported?)

The other thing they accomplished was to set back by about 30 years the view that whites had about blacks. Bad enough that we already saw a portion of the black community as a danger, and as leeches on society and criminals (some of which had a basis, at least, in reality). No, what the mongerers did was to help reinforce in nearly every white mind the stereotypes (some earned, some not) of how black people act, and how they see the whites that they encounter.  Of how the blacks (or at least a significant portion of them) feel entitled to freebies, and how they feel entitled to steal, loot and destroy. How they think so differently than the whites that robbing or stealing is acceptable and that there should be no consequences……

In short, they have allowed every white person, even those who were willing to give black people a chance, to begin to wonder if every black person, deep down, fits the stereotypes. Lazy, no good, drug using, thieving wastrels who are good for nothing but trouble. Best not to allow them to move into your neighborhood, you know, and if they do, best to move out as soon as possible……

Even the most open minded white persons have to wonder. Have to, at least a little, fear. Have to think that that racist guy they know who preaches white separatism and/or supremacy might well be right?

I posted this image, with the notice that it HAD to be photoshop …..and most of the people who saw it thought so too……and later had a link in comments to show the original… But quite a few people that I know of said…”so what? It is how they think”….like that leftist “fake but accurate” George Bush TNG memo. Some people really don’t care that it isn’t real, because it sums up how they believe the people who look like, act like, talk like, lived with, befriended, and raised Mike Brown seem to think. They are willing to paint all black people with that brush… And blacks across the board are willing to see all white people as willing enablers of cops who kill, in cold blood, for no reason (other than they are black),  young black men….no matter what the evidence might show.

So congrats, whoever you are, you destroyed any chance for another generation or two for equality and integration. For Dr. Kings dream to become reality…..And for black people to have the willingness to change their culture and embrace success. To reinforce all the stereotypes that do so much to keep us apart.

Good job.

I swear

The friggin Californians are NEVER happy:

“Oh, the drought is killing us!”

“Oh, this rain is too much!”

By the horns of Odin, are they never happy?

104 yards?

One handed.

Holding TWO horses.

With a pistol.

One shot.  (I think an M+P?)

Badass…..and he credits God for the shot.

If true, I’ll buy him a beer and shake his hand. And call him “Sir”.

ETA:
From Karl in the comments:
“So 312ft, one handed and under pressure, is the new standard”.

Indeed.  And DRT in one shot….I’m gonna have to work on that.

HA HA …it is to laugh

Saw this on Comrade Karl’s blog  (Glad he’s ok and out of the hospital, BTW) and since it makes me laugh every time see it, I thought I’d share it with you.

Put the drink down first.
(I warned you)

Hope she wasn’t hurt too badly….

Yes, at times I am a juvenile. Sue me.

So Barry is gonna provide funding

Using, of course, borrowed taxpayer dollars, for up to 50,000 police cameras.

I think police cameras area a good idea, but I expect that they will be abused…bad police will fail to turn them on, or they will be “accidentally” damaged, or the images will somehow get deleted when it is deemed expedient for it to happen…..

And lets face it, the folks in Ferguson would still have rioted. Ii was time. Look at history. Every so often….

But, sadly, the first thing I thought when I heard the news about the Feds funding the cameras was “I wonder which of Barry’s friends will get the contract to supply the cameras and the service contract afterwards?”

Sad that that is what we have come to.

If you do the math, that is $1500 per camera, which seems high, considering that a Go-Pro basic camera goes for less than $130.

Of course, this may not be comparing apples to apples, but still, more than 10X the price?
