Sanders: Too Often, Unarmed Black People Dragged from Cars and Shot
National Review ^ | 08/30/2015 | Jim Geraghty Read more at: http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/423281/sanders-too-often-unarmed-bl

Appearing on CNN’s “State of the Union” with Jake Tapper, Vermont senator Bernie Sanders told the host that “unarmed black people” getting ”dragged out of cars” or getting shot “is happening too often.”

Sanders said this after Tapper showed him video of Ron Hickman, the sheriff of Harris County, Texas, responding to the murder of a deputy sheriff at a gas station, declaring, “This rhetoric has gotten out of control.  We have heard black lives matter, all lives matter.  Well, cops’ lives matter, too.  So why don’t we just drop the qualifier and just say lives matter and take that to the bank?”

TAPPER: Has the rhetoric gotten too hot?

SANDERS: Well, this is what I think. Obviously, it is an outrage that this police officer was basically assassinated. Other police officers have been killed. I worked with police officers when I was mayor of the city of Burlington. They have a very, very difficult job. And we need to make sure that we have the best-trained, best-paid police departments in the world. And, as president, I would help bring that about, community policing and so forth.

We know that this can’t be happening in Bernie’s Vermont because it is virtually 100% white.

A lot of the time the drive-bys don't even make the effort to drag them out of their cars.

Americans are tired of the Democrat/Marxists and their victim issues, their agenda 21, political correctness, their hate of our country, our history, of achievement, their love of despots, dictators and Islam. They are heavy and tiresome!

We’ve had our fill of your BS.

Yeah, just this morning on the way to church, the black driver in front of me took too long at the light,
I pulled his butt out of his car, and tapped him twice...

Everyone behind me was grateful...

Old Burn me got hijacked off his campaign stage in Seattle by the lovely BLM more than his speech peep’s. A victim of his own stupid socialism experiment of unwanted side effects.

Too often blacks attack whites out of racial hatred. Too often the media deliberately and intentionally hides the races. Too often blacks rape white women and the media ignores it. Too often blacks shoot cops out of racial hatred.
Too often all whites are blamed for the crime of one. Too often Marxists overlook the crimes of blacks, thereby encouraging them to do more.
