We Have a ‘War on Cops’ because of the War on the Family
American Thinker ^ | July 16, 2016 | Trevor Thomas

Just so we’re clear, here’s the left’s narrative on the police in America: there’s widespread and institutionalized racism inside America’s law enforcement agencies, and black Americans are especially targeted. This racism has led to the deaths of a disproportionate number of innocent black Americans. In order to stop this heinous activity, we need more gun control legislation, more wealth redistribution, more job and education programs, and thus Americans need to elect more Democrats.

Heather MacDonald (more than once), Larry Elder (more than once), and a host of others have provided mountains of evidence that prove beyond any reasonable doubt that there is no widespread special targeting of blacks by U.S. law enforcement. In addition to the crime statistics, consider: of the 50 largest cities in the U.S., 30 percent have a black police chief. Of the 50 largest sheriff’s departments in the U.S., 12 percent were led by black Americans. (Remember, blacks are about 13 percent of the U.S. population, and sheriffs are usually elected.)

Barack Obama, the U.S. president and commander-in-chief of the U.S. military -- the largest, most powerful military in the world -- is a black man. The U.S. attorney general -- the chief law enforcement officer and chief lawyer of the U.S. government -- Loretta Lynch, is a black woman. The previous U.S. attorney general, Eric Holder, is a black man. No doubt there are racists within U.S. law enforcement -- as there are in almost any agency, institution, or organization in America -- however, there is no way a nation achieves the racial diversity detailed above if widespread, institutionalized racism exists.

When and why did you decide that the government was likely to be part of a productive solution to a problem?

Sexual (and other) sins are rampamt in the black "community."

God is not mocked, and you do reap what you sow. You sow sin, you get destruction.

Shephard Smith went off minutes ago, live against former LA Governor Bobby Jindal for Jindal daring to say;

“ALL LIVES MATTER”

Smith just told Jindal;

“Why would you say such a controversial statement, when it is so offense to blacks.”

Jindal again stated: “ALL LIVES MATTER”

Smith, all in a huff, just told Jindal that the interview has ended.
