He's been pissed off ever since the white policeman "the police acted stupidly" moment. He has done so much damage to the police it is unbelievable. None of us condones genuine abuses by the police.

But he keeps painting them all with the same broad brush and has put their lives in jeopardy, created a whole hate movement, BLM, who chant what do we want? dead cops! when do we want it? now! and pigs in a blanket, fry 'em like bacon.

Sickofit

BLM needs a blanket party rather than pigs in a blanket.

Zer0 is an example of Affirmative Action that has come home to roost. What is evident is he does not even understand our justice system. He thinks he can determine who needs to be prosecuted and who does not without regard to the evidence. If a black man commits a crime it is hands off instead of hands up. The results are a racist criteria for who is to be accountable for their crime. And since the hands off policy was created, crime has spiked. We can thank our incompetent Affirmative Action President for all of it.

I hope that one of the first things President Trump (or even Cruz, for that matter) does is to fire all the top DOJ officials in the Integrity Office, Office of Special Counsel, Civil Rights Division, the Attorney General and all her corrupt staff (anyone from Holder’s time has to go, also, to jail).

They are the most corrupt lawyers ever in the history of the federal government. Integrity, honesty, morality, and professionalism cannot be found on their CVs.

The question is

Can the US Justice Department, the US military (and the US itself)

be salvaged after the damage done by the Soros/Jarrett/obama “adminstration”?

I take you are referring to the former Michael Robinson, who played for his high school football team.

In March, the City of Ferguson, Missouri announced that, unless voters agreed to a massive tax increase to fund its debilitatingly burdensome consent decree with the Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division over the city’s police department, the city would have to lay off 12 police officers and six firefighters and close one of the city’s two fire stations.

I wouldn't be surprised to find out that after a few years tax revenues actually drop.

A tax increase like this is no problem when you are living in government owned or subsidized housing.

But it's enough to drive out businesses and working homeowners - people who actually pay their own way.

That began at the start of the Jarrett/Obama presidency

with their “Justice” dept dropping the case against the new black panthers who threatened white voters at a Philadelphia voting site in the election that made Obama president.

Politics is like a pendulum. For ever action there is a reaction.
This small little man obammy has pushed said pendulum very far left.
Some individual, maybe Trump will come along and push it just as far or more so right.
Will be fun watching the libs go ape shit over those right leaning presidential decrees.
Go Trump give em hell BABY.

"White Flight" is not just for whites. The smarter minorities also leave.

Baltimore is typical of many Midwestern and Northern cities, whose demographics were forever changed by the great black migration of the twentieth century. Not unexpectedly we found a cognitive discontinuity at the city line. Surprising, however, was its magnitude. Whereas suburban mean IQs (86 for blacks, 99 for whites) conform more or less to national norms, city IQs are dreadfully low. With a mean IQ of 76, inner-city blacks fall about 0.6 SD below the African American average nationally. More than a third have death-penalty immunity on grounds of mental retardation. The inner-city white mean of 86 is nearly a full standard deviation below the national white average. By this measure, whites fared worse than blacks. …
