Dallas, like Ferguson, Shows The Homicidal Outcome Of False Narratives

Pres. Obama vows that lawlessness will not stand & violators will be held accountable, unless it's Hillary...WH Press Secretary (parody)

------
A lifetime ago, I spent a few years in juvenile probation in a major U.S. city. There were occasions when we dealt with the juvenile detention system inhabited by adjudicated youth. While the youth were in detention, they had visiting hours from family and friends. There were several conspicuous observations I made at the time:

  • 95-99% of the youth were black.
  • It was mostly women---mothers, grandmothers, sisters, etc. that would be visiting. Very few men were present.
  • During their visit, many of the youth were talking about returning to crime and/or their gangs as soon as they were released.
I bring this to your attention for these reasons. This illustrates what the real problems are in the black community; namely, absent fathers, drugs and hanging around with bad actors.

While the two most recent police shootings appear to be troublesome, the fact is false narratives continue to be promoted by the media and the likes of the Black Lives Matter movement.

Let's take a look at the facts:

  • In 2015, there were 965 people killed by police.
  • Of those shootings, 90 were unarmed and a majority were white.
  • White police officers shooting unarmed black males accounted for less than 4% of fatal police shootings (the narrative is just the opposite).
  • In 75% of the incidents, police officers were either under attack (like Dallas) or defending civilians (kinda like police officers protecting anti-police protesters).
  • Most of those killed were brandishing weapons, suicidal or mentally ill.
  • Almost 30% of the police shootings resulted from car chases that began with a minor traffic stop.
  • The odds of anyone being killed by a cop is approximately 1 in 318,000. This happens to be in a nation of approximately 1 million police officers.
  • Many more victims of crime are victims of black-on-black crime not being  shot by police officers. In addition, in 2013, 42% of all cop killers were black.
As Heather MacDonald pointed out in her book, War On Cops,  it shows that "crime, not race, drives police actions..."

The truth is facts to many of these apologists is irrelevant.  They dismiss the truth to perpetuate lies. They prefer chaos. It sustains their false narratives. In short, it's their mission in life.

Fifty-eight police officers have died in the line of duty this year---26 were shot dead.

It's Time For Public Opinion & The Trump Campaign To Prosecute Hillary Clinton

I: "Hillary Clinton was extremely careless with classified info."
(one hour later)
POTUS: "She's the most qualified ever."...Josh Earnest Tweet (parody)
----

Progressive ideology is warped and dangerous.  When we have the President of the U.S. praising Hillary Clinton one hour after the FBI listed her incompetence and conspicuous lies, you know our nation is in peril.  Our nation is at risk and in danger because one of the major findings by the FBI noted Clinton ignored security concerns (110 emails included classified information) on accounts vulnerable to hacking by our enemies.

In addition, many progressive democrats are cheering the fact that the FBI would not be recommending criminal charges against Clinton. This should surprise no one. When it comes to progressives, their toxic ideology always trumps national security and common sense.

While I have a theory that Comey preferred not to recommend charges because he didn't want to interfere with the political process; nevertheless, he laid out perfectly why Clinton should never be president.  In other words, she's not off the hook yet.  Comey made it clear the nation would not be in good hands with Clinton sitting in the Oval Office.

Since many believe Comey dropped the ball in the Red Zone, it's now up to the public and Trump to prosecute Hillary Clinton. As I wrote in a previous post, Trump now has an open field full of low-hanging fruit.  Easy pickins.  John Podhoretz noted today: "Clintons have earned the dubious distinction of being the most outrageously careless couple this nation has ever known."

It's time for Republicans to finally put an ice pick into the legacy of Bill and Hillary Clinton, the king and queen of decadence, corruption and political arrogance.

Postscript: Since this was posted,  there have been more revelations about Clinton's emails and her health.

Comey"s Report: No Crimes Occurred But Hillary Clinton Is Really, Really Incompetent

OK government employees, you heard the FBI Director, no punishment for storing private info on a private unsecured server in your bathroom...Josh Earnst Tweet (parody)

----

Of course, there are many Americans disappointed with the outcome of today's FBI announcement regarding Hillary Clinton.  Others are cheering. And while no "crimes" were committed (and that's still up for debate),  Comey made one fact clear:  Hillary Clinton's is really, really incompetent and just as stupid.  The FBI closed the case legally but politically---it's a wide open field. And my suggestion to Donald Trump:  you now have an open field of low hanging fruit.  Let's take a look at this gold mine from the lips of Comey himself:
  • Clinton and staff were extremely "careless" in handling of classified information.
  • Of those 110 emails, "52 email chains ...have been determined to include classified information."  Reminder: Approximately one year ago, she denied sending classified information from her private server.
  • "8 of those chains contained information that was Top Secret at the time they were sent."
  • "None of these emails should have been on any unclassified system.."
  • "But their presence is especially concerning because all of these emails were housed on unclassified personal servers..."
  • "We do assess that hostile actors gained access to the private commercial email accounts of people with whom Secretary Clinton was in regular contact from her personal account."
And finally:  "We are expressing to Justice our view that no charges are appropriate in this case."

You can read Comey's entire statement but the above are the highlights of his presser.  He appeared to indicate there was no "intent" by Hillary Clinton to jeopardize the nation's security. Well, next time you get stopped by a cop for speeding or going through a red light, try telling the officer: "But it was not my intention to break the law sir."  See how far that lame excuse gets you.

Moreover, how can anyone have any confidence in an administration with the legacy of the IRS scandal, Fast and Furious and Benghazi to name a few among many?

Nevertheless, if you read between the lines of his statement, it's clear he and the FBI believe Hillary Clinton is incompetent and very, very stupid.  For those reasons alone, she should never set foot in the WH again.

The Bill Clinton & AG Lynch Private Meeting: Raising More Justified Suspicions

Hillary was finally summoned to the FBI on the busy 4th of July weekend when Americans weren't paying attention. Thank you, FBI...WH Press Secretary Tweet (Parody).
-----------

So let's see if I understand this. The attorney general of the U.S. meets with a former impeached president whose wife is the first candidate for president of the U.S. who is under criminal investigation by the FBI--the AG's Department of Justice. Why should that raise the eyebrows of any rational thinking American?  Well, it should. But their arrogance knows no bounds. After all, this administration has been conning Americans for the last 8 years.  In other words, nothing to see here folks.  But coincidentally, the Benghazi Report  was released within hours of their meeting. Author J.M. Darhower once wrote: "Yes, you see, there is no such thing as coincidence.  There are no accidents in life. Everything that happens is the result of a calculated move that leads us to where we are." 

Just as disturbing, this meeting was suppose to be a private one but a local affiliate broke the story.  This should bring to mind it was this administration that told us it would be the most transparent in history. Instead, we witnessed more arrogance and deceit.

After being questioned as to why she met with Bill Clinton, Lynch said: "Our conversation was a great deal about his grandchildren. It was primarily social and about our travels."  Did you catch the most important word in that sentence?  PRIMARILY.   The use of that word suggests or hints they talked about other issues and concerns. Gee, I wonder what they were?

Many theories were proposed.  From Lynch informing Clinton of the outcome of the criminal investigation to Bubba reminding her it was he who---as president---appointed her to serve as the U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of NY. However, the suspicion I prefer is the one put forward by J. Christian Adams of PJ Media who wrote: "The tarmac summit sent a signal. It is a signal to all of the hardworking FBI agents who have the goods on Hillary. The AG has made it clear what team she is on. The AG isn't on the side of justice. She's on the side of the Democrat Party."

One fact is now clear.  The meeting placed Lynch in between a rock and hard place (thank you Bubba). More distressing is that the meeting shot a large hole through any semblance of impartiality.
