Discussion for article #230822
This is a scary group of deep thinkers right here:
Rudy 9-11, in his new role as Grand Wizard of the Klu Klux Klan;
Convicted felon Bernie Kerik, fresh off of three years in federal prison on fraud charges;
“Bishop” EW Jackson, who once said, "How in the world can we expect our military to be blessed by the hand of almighty God if we allow our military to become the equivalent of Sodom and Gomorrah? God is not pleased” and “It was God’s plan to beget the Tea Party”;
Congressman Peter King, described in the NY Times as “The Patriot Act’s most fervent fan,” who once said, “There are too many mosques in this country. There are too many people sympathetic to radical Islam. We should be looking at them more carefully and finding out how we can infiltrate them”;
Arizona Congressman Matt Salmon, who has a gay son but opposes marriage equality and has voted to ban gay couples adopting children. He has also signed a pledge sponsored by the Koch brothers’ Americans for Prosperity that prevents the support of any Global Warming legislation that would raise taxes; and
Bob McManus, a routinely idiotic columnist for the NY Post.
Odd how 4 of these 6 conservative sycophants (emphasis on the sicko) were presented to the world via Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp propaganda empire.

Dear Rep. Peter King:
How many innocent people were murdered by your friends in the IRA? Friends that you materially supported. What does that make you, King?

If you send 5 cops to collect a dollar of cig tax, how many cops would you have to send to Wall St to collect taxes.

Cops - and the rest of the justice system all the way up to and including the Supreme Court - know who they are working for.

It is more apparent than ever that summary execution is becoming the accepted standard in law enforcement. Franco or Mussolini have nothing on the USA.

Ever stop to think why you’ve had 100 or more interactions with police?

I am very proud that there are no Democrats on this list. Dems don’t fire a dozen rounds at an unarmed kid and then cry about how scary he was. Dems don’t gang up and surround an unarmed guy and strangle him to death and then blame him for scaring them.

Point out, objectively, what was inaccurate, or outright wrong in any of the comments noted in this article. Please be specific.
I’m sure it was a lot less than were murdered by British soldiers & SAS.
What is the color of the sky in your world?

These experts need to take their conclusions to some logical place concerning white-collar miscreants who are dodging taxes illegally through offshore accounts and other schemes, not cigarette by cigarette. Are some chokeholds & death for them in the accidental manner required to get their people to comply? Last time I recall that the Feds had a bunch caught red-handed (on list from a Swiss bank), they sent them a bill, did not visit them personally, and never exposed their names to public ridicule.

PBA. president Pat Lynch is another defender of the NYPD’s Daniel Pantaleo .
“He is the model of what we want a police officer to be."
"Teach (your children) to comply with police officers, even if they feel it’s unjust. That police officers are protecting them from the criminals on the street.”

Always a pleasure, Big Guy; whassup?
~ JP, I’m on cable today but I got no clue about the latest the Hot Issue or what to say.
Well, you came to the right place. I see by our figures that the only reason you’re even in this phony baloney biz in the first place is because you come from a deep red state and take idiotic and totally irreconcilable knee jerk wing nut positions guaranteeing you to get attacked by your opponents as a Bible-toting anti-Obamacare ignorant white supremacist bigot.
~ You got all that right. Now, what do I go with, pro?
- Lessee … ah, yes. Sez here, you need to attack the latest guy killed by cops then totally insulated from consequences by the legal establishment. That would be … this guy in Staten Island named Garner, Eric Garner. As usual with these dead folks, the key is he can’t argue back or go on to be exonerated, plus there’s the usual obligatory blah, but we’ve draw lucky here because this guy was HUGE, so easy to make him out a threat regardless of what he was actually like in real life; and of course he’s blah, did I mention that? So, we’re going with … black guy on something goes berserk, nope; black guy commits a felony tries to escape, nope; looks like he pulled a gun, nope; suicide by cop, nope … okay here we go, he resisted arrest, all the blah guy’s fault.
- Thanx JP; you guys really are the experts in bullshit!

So, let’s recap.
Instead of training professional police paid by taxpayers to protect and serve that the public is in fact NOT trained and NOT in a professional role and might react negatively to being accosted, and that therefore they must do everything they can to deescalate the situation so it can be resolved without violence…
…instead the people who are the constant victims of police mistreatment are the ones who need to be trained to just take it, just shut up, don’t register any complaint, don’t lean into your car to get your ID, don’t pick up that toy rifle in the department store, don’t scream when the plunger is rammed up your anus, don’t cry out for mercy while being subjected to a fusillade of bullets, and don’t beg for air while being choked to death over a few dollars of cigarette tax revenue.
Well, clearly that’s because the alleged professionals in the interaction are beyond training and as such should be removed from the force.
For the edification of these imbeciles, as Mayor DiBlasio related, he’s had what’s called “the talk” with his dark-skinned son about interacting with police. Sadly, this talk is a necessary feature of African American life: don’t mouth off, don’t make any sudden movements, don’t run in sheer panic. Even a rural old white man like me knows that.
So these fools going off about “training the public” have no fucking idea what they’re talking about, nor do the nitwits listening to them who’ll use this as yet another justification to make the dead victims into the perpetrators of their own demise, because to acknowledge otherwise calls into question their attitudes.
I have some news for these sonsofbitches. We as a people of all races, ages, creeds, and colors aren’t gonna put up with this shit anymore. Game’s over, thug cops.

“When Kerik made that same point during an appearance on Fox News on Wednesday night, host Megyn Kelly pushed back.” Ms Kelly needs to make up her mind as to which side of an issue she agrees with,caught a bit of her with former New Orleans mayor Marc Morial like most faux people they get shrill and talk ove you when they are losing the battle.
