I agree with the police free zones. Let em maim & kill each other {whether black or white} just like the mafia did to their own. We could even pay for the funerals with tax payer monies cause it would save money in the long term.

They are quite representative of their constituency...facts are irrelevant, skin color is everything.

Surprised they didn't wear hoodies, too.

Just disgusting.

All Part of Obama's "I hate whitey" followers. Fits right in with Reverend Wright.....Obuma's mentor.

There are planes leaving for Africa every day. Get on them if you haven’t figured out why, after hundreds of years, you haven’t made it in America. Every other group has…even Blacks from Africa who come here for opportunity.

Absolutely not. That would make it totally political...like the Duke boys and all the crooked politicians connected.

Facts are soooooo bothersome. A criminal thug is dead after trying to murder a cop. Good. Idiot politicians. Idiot congresspeople. Are there none in politics who aren’t ignorant, racist sluts? Just askin’?

Worth repeating:

Why don't the lawmakers support their lawkeepers?

That sign is simply amazing.

I think he might be one of us infiltrating the demonstration.

The left used to do that to us...

Whether this occurs on the House floor or Main Street, it is a textbook example of Democracy, in action.

A great response to “Hands up, Don’t shoot”:

Hold up both palms at them and say,

“DON’T ROB, MY STORE!”

(As an aside, in Greece, holding both palms up at someone means “Go to Hell”.)

“Hands up, Don’t shoot”

“DON’T ROB, MY STORE!”

“Hands up, Don’t shoot”

“DON’T ROB, MY STORE!”

“Hands up, Don’t shoot”

“DON’T ROB, MY STORE!”

Is there something in the water, food or air that is making people stupid?
What happened to individual reasoning?
This type of group think is becoming very, very, dangerous!
Especially, since it is being manipulated to achieve something, perhaps, truly evil.
A 7 yr old girl is shot, murdered in Detroit, in a no knock raid by a trigger happy swat cop in 2010. He walks.......no outrage!!!!!!!!!!
Bahhhhhhhh bahhhhhhhh bahhhhhhh sheep!!!

That thought did occur to me. However, that bunch is so stupid that many would not grasp the irony.

Lawmakers make ‘hands up’ gesture on House floor.

Perpetuating a LIE is not democracy. Dumocrats need to understand that this whole fiasco is a lie. Lowry had it right,” You don’t rob stores, you don’t punch a cop and attempt to steal his gun and when told to stop, YOU STOP”

“This has become the new symbol, a new statement, a statement wherein people around the country now, are calling to the attention of those who don’t quite understand that this is a movement that will not dissipate it will not evaporate. It is a movement that is going to continue,” Green said on the floor.


And the movement is based on a lie. The fact is that Brown did NOT have hands up, pleading don’t shoot. The grand jury report is damning in this area. Brown was charging Wilson when the fatal shots were fired.

This hands up don’t shoot nonsense is based on something which never happened.

Michael Brown and Travyon Martin were gang banger wanna be type guys. It surprises me that the left is trying to build this movement around thuggish men.

It appears that facts do not matter to the liberals in this case. The narrative which they set up before we knew any facts, is being pushed even though it’s now clear that the narrative is based on lies.

I’m shocked that the left is stooping so low to push some liberal cause. And they accuse conservatives of lying and misstating and exaggerating about things...........

I remember hearing that during the last “racial tragedy” of Trayvon Martin, a bunch of them were going to wear hoodies on the floor. I can’t remember if they went through with it or not.

What a bunch of idiots.
