San Francisco Chronicle ^ | September 14, 2020 | Kevin Rector

The video showed a shooting that shocked the conscience: a cold-blooded attempt to kill two Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies at close range in Compton. Immediately, unequivocal condemnations flooded in from law enforcement officials, city leaders and the nation’s most prominent politicians.

Ali, the South L.A. activist, said he rejected those who had protested outside the hospital where the deputies were being treated. (At least one protester was heard on video saying, “I hope they … die,” a phrase that was criticized through the day in conservative media and became a trending topic on Twitter.)


Criticized on conservative media. So it was approved on liberal media? This article give the opinion that the two officers caused their own shooting

Find a steamroller for the animals who were causing trouble at the hospital. Fewer Biden Voters, but it wont matter in Cali, could help in a congressional race. I heard a commercial today for Adam the S**t’s opponent, Eric Early

In reality, she said, the protests are a response to the problem, not the cause: “If there wasn’t injustice in the system, they wouldn’t be out in the streets.”

What "injustice", specifically, ma'am?

Why haven’t they found the perp? Didn’t he get off a bus?

Its hard to tell from the security video of the shooting but based on the relative height of the shooter to the top of of police cruiser he looks and walks like a kid, maybe 9 or 10.

That’s even scarier than an adult since he probably can’t be given real prison time but only juvenile home time.

Article is a mega-Barf.

Just one of countless examples: The only thing it says about the hospital incident is that LEOs were "enraged" merely by the fact that "a small group of protesters had gathered there". It says absolutely nothing at all about what those protestors said and did.

Radio news coverage sounded very familiar going back to when the same stuff was happening in New York .Where cops were being murdered as the aftermath of Obama using the Zimmerman trial and the Bully Pulpit creating racial division defending resisting arrests which resulted racial attacks on innocents traversing black neighborhoods and attacks on police officers.

Those so called “protesters” at the hospital in this should be considered accomplices and also held responsible.

It looks like a man to me, fat but perhaps short. He looked about average from another camera - that was a fish-eye lens that made him look so small.

In any case, I think his gait is so weird because he’s trying to keep his baggy shorts up. Notice what looks like underwear sticking out over the top as he runs. They run with their knees angled outwards so the pants won’t slip over them.

Definitely odd, though, whatever the cause.

These police assassinations have been going on for years, started in Obama’s administration.

It’s amazing the short term memory that the media has.

Oh really? Yes the response from law enforcement officials matches as does Trump & Biden BUT from "city leaders" and the academics quoted in this full article, the response is equivocal and conditional condemnations. Of course they also managed to squeeze in a referrence to blame Trump and Kenosha here;

Laura E. Gómez, director of the Critical Race Studies Program at UCLA School of Law, said that when she heard Villanueva say “words have consequences,” it struck her that activists had used similar language after it came out that a white teenager charged with shooting and killing two protesters in Kenosha, Wis., had a history of praising Trump — who has been accused of stoking tensions between police and protesters through his rhetoric.

However, and to echo the Sherlock Holmes about the key being the dog that does not bark, where are the CALIFORNIA POLITICOS on this ambush attack? I am talking about Rep.Maxine Waters (CA-43) & Rep.Nanette Barragán (CA-44) as this is in your joint Congressional Districts area. I’m talking about you Madam Speaker & Rep.Nancy Pelosi (CA-12), Senior US Senator Diane Feinstein (CA) and Senator & VP Candidate Kamala Harris (CA). If you have said something, nobody is talking about it!

And it started with the addition of Obama's mentors, those unrepentant terrorists, Bill Ayres and Bernadine Dorhn, both of whom should be facing life in prison, but instead are dispersing their filth to college students!

When does the rioting and burning and looting start in support of blue lives matter?

Didn’t you get the memo? Obama could do no wrong. He was the Baby Black Jesus, as Kevin Jackson calls him.
