Late-night comedians got serious on Wednesday following a Kentucky grand jury’s decision to not indict the police officers involved in the shooting death of Breonna Taylor.

The grand jury’s decision ignited widespread protests and violence throughout Louisville, with demonstrations cropping up in other cities across the country. In Louisville, two police officers were shot amid the rioting. Officials said the two cops are in stable condition and the suspect is in custody.

Did they ever think about where all those drugs were going and all the misery it would create?

"The most relevant common factor - far more than race - in ALL of these highly-politicized acts of “police brutality” is that the suspects refused to cooperate with police, did not follow directions, attacked and fought with police, and/or shot at police with a gun or taser."

It's not true in ALL of them, but yes it is a common factor. This particular case though, the police conducted an unnecessary no-knock raid putting lives at risk, and an innocent party was the victim of that. It was not just.

The reference, is to the charge of wanton destruction of only toward the ‘white’ apartment, and no charges toward the other damaged apartment where blacks lived.

Maybe if blacks valued their OWN lives they wouldn’t overdose on drugs, attack cops with knives, hang out with drug dealers and black out in the drive-thru at Wendys.

Trevor Noah and Jimmy Kimmel are not comedians. They are red-faced, spewing with spittle and anger. There's nothing funny here. Poor Jimmy Fallon tried to stay out of the fray but then Hollywood made a rule, "only woke comedy permitted" so now he's not funny either.

Jimmy Kimmel used to star on a show with Adam Carolla where they'd mostly parade hot chicks, make jokes about boobs, and end the show with girls wearing dresses and jumping on trampolines to show off their panties.

It was a wonderful show.

Now he's woke. Former partner Adam Carolla, however, is not woke. He's still pretty funny.

Blame the judge who issued the no-knock authorization. And even though the raid was authorized as a no-knock, the A.G. said that the police DID knock and identify themselves before entering (which was corroborated by a witness), and the first thing that happened when they entered is that the boyfriend shot one of them.

Wonder if they'll say anything about the two cops (one white, one black) that were shot last night in downtown Louisville (thankfully they're expected to recover) though I'm pretty sure I know the answer already.

My black friends are ashamed of these rioters and BLM. They are afraid that they’ll wrongly be judged similarly. Valid point.

These Stalinazi idiots don’t care about Breonna Taylor. She isn’t the issue. The issue is the Revolution.

The no-knock warrent isn’t a factor because the cops did knock and identify themselves.

Still posting the lie that it was a no knock? Grand jury established that it was not a no knock, they had a valid warrant and knocked. Oh yeah and The perp shot first. Why are you pushing disinformation?

I do. And the police that asked for it and executed it.

"And even though the raid was authorized as a no-knock, the A.G. said that the police DID knock and identify themselves before entering (which was corroborated by a witness), and the first thing that happened when they entered is that the boyfriend shot one of them."

Yeah. They're lying. Out of a dozen witnesses they got one to say that maybe he heard the police announce themselves, and only after his third interview. And the boyfriend called 911 saying people were breaking into his apartment. It was a no-knock raid.

Nope, the disinformation is that it wasn't a no-knock raid. The grand jury didn't establish that. The authorities that said it wasn't are lying. It's written right into the warrant. Their argument is that a witness says he heard the police announce themselves. The truth is that out of a dozen witnesses they eventually got on to change his original story to say maybe he did. Presto! No no-knock raid. It's BS.

True. If they really believed that they would also clamor for increased police presence in their neighborhoods to protect innocents who are being slaughtered. Children and passerby.
