Several police officers have been injured by Black Lives Matter protesters who took over the I-94 freeway in St. Paul, Minnesota Saturday night over the deadly police shooting of Philando Castile, attacking police officers who tried to clear the road by throwing chunks of concrete, rebar, rocks, bottles, fireworks and Molotov Cocktails. The attacks have gone on for three hours.

I’m sure Gov. Dayton will blame the White citizens of the Twin Cities for this mayhem. What a putz. But he has to keep the Blacks stirred up so they turn out to vote for Crooked Hillary….the most important consideration for Democrats this year.

Agreed. The National Guard would, if they weren't forced to have empty magazines.

Police departments the world over periodically face an acute dilemma in confrontations with violent civil unrest: the need for effective riot control and the duty to preserve the health and safety of all, including the protesters themselves. Conventional tactics - from physical force all the way to tear gas and water cannons - have proven either ineffective, potentially lethal, or both.

Odortec, supported by a police R&D unit, developed the perfect, if highly pungent, solution: The Skunk.

There Are No Countermeasures
A non-lethal, completely non-toxic liquid spray, the Skunk is the most innovative and effective riot control method available. And there simply are no countermeasures.

This harmless deterrent consists of an extremely foul-smelling liquid, with the viscosity of water, that can be sprayed over a large area using a standard water cannon. The overpowering odor of the Skunk drives rioters away - and keeps them away - effectively shutting down any escalating situation.

One would think five murdered cops in Dallas would make them smug and satisfied about getting even. But like Islamic Jihadis, it only emboldens them to spill more blood.

One more thing... when Obama reportedly asked high military officers whether or not they would fire on American citizens if ordered, he didn’t mean blacks.

My office was in St. Paul on W. 7th near the airport for 16 years. Glad to be out of there...

Yeah, but those weren't ordinary Rocks, Rebar, Bottles, Fireworks, Molotov Cocktails, they were peaceful Rocks, Rebar, Bottles, Fireworks, Molotov Cocktails, and the police acted stupidy by getting injured.

The recent events have the police on edge, no doubt. Unfortunately, accidents will happen and that may be what happened in Minnesota. Even a traffic stop can result in someone being shot. And no, it is not about race.

Be careful everyone. Especially folks who have a concealed carry permit.

Obama could stop this if he wanted to. He could get on tv and start addressing black violence. He could tell BLM to stop blaming police for black dysfunction. He could tell parents to raise their children with respect for authority.

But he WON’T because he believes in their cause.

The answer:

The Knoxville riot of 1919 was a race riot that took place in Knoxville, Tennessee, United States, on August 30–31, 1919. The riot began when a lynch mob stormed the county jail in search of Maurice Mays, a mulatto man who had been accused of murdering a white woman. Unable to find Mays, the rioters looted the jail and fought a pitched gun battle with the residents of a predominantly black neighborhood. The Tennessee National Guard, which at one point fired two machine guns indiscriminately into this neighborhood, eventually dispersed the rioters. Newspapers placed the death toll at just two, though eyewitness accounts suggest it was much higher.

The Riot of 1919 was one of several violent racial incidents that occurred during the so-called Red Summer, when race riots plagued cities across the United States. The riot was one of the worst racial episodes in Knoxville’s history, and shattered the city’s vision of itself as a racially tolerant Southern town. After the riot, many black residents left Knoxville, and racial violence continued to flare up sporadically in subsequent years

Libtards. They are so stupid. Black violence is turning voters into Trump supporters by the second. Keep it up. All Trump need do now is sit back and send condolences and he is a lead pipe cinch.

Would suit me just fine. It wouldn’t bother me if they shot every one of them. They can shoot all the New Black Panthers too.
