20. Stunning cluelessness. Very narrow definitions. Let's reinvent the wheel, huh?

In a moment of emotional turmoil for officers, victims and the public, they act as if it's a sporting competition.

Was this a game, too?

Remember when conservatives CONDONED threats against law enforcement officers?






Leading to Infowars and Libertarian Adam Kokesh calling for the death of police as a pre-emptive measure, then continued to applaud the murders of these police men?



They complain about de Blasio, Obama, and the media milieu that they claim caused the killing of the two police officers in question.

Did they agree with this?



Or did they agree with this?



to you, napkinz:

How many of them denounced this?



"Now if the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms comes to disarm you and they are bearing arms, resist them with arms. Go for a head shot; they're going to be wearing bulletproof vests." ... "They've got a big target on there, ATF. Don't shoot at that, because they've got a vest on underneath that. Head shots, head shots.... Kill the sons of bitches."

~ G. Gordon Liddy on his radio show, August 26, 1994

They do have my sympathy for those killed in the line of duty and I expect them to support each other. But not in the case of the man sodomized with a broom handle, which is an obvious CRIME, and nothing to do with maintaining the 'thin blue line.'

They crossed the 'blue line' way too often, treating minorities as POWs, and some officers have stampeded across it. So much more to say, of how they are destroying what they've sworn to protect.

Unless, like 'Bloomberg's Army' they are an occupying force at the top, and those who join up not knowing are going to be victims of that. This stuff is not that hard to understand. Not to me, anyway. This pic doesn't help anyone who is self-aware.
