    Video commentary on the shooting

    Excerpt from the article....


    Suspect in officer deaths has history of racial provocations




    DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — A white man with a history of racial provocations and confrontations with police ambushed and fatally shot two white officers Wednesday in separate attacks as they sat in their patrol cars, authorities said.
    Police took 46-year-old Scott Michael Greene into custody hours after the killings and less than three weeks after he argued with officers who removed him from a high school football game where he had unfurled a Confederate flag near black spectators.

    Yeah, they pretty much nailed the hypocrisy in that video. The "blue lives matter" crowd is nowhere to be seen. If the shooter had been black, there would be wall-to-wall coverage. Both Clinton and Trump would have denounced the killings, and that disgusting coon, Sheriff Clarke, would be yelling and screaming about how poor black people need to get their heads cracked by the boys in blue.

    But let it be a right wing white dude, and we get crickets. Even the right leaning members of WWBM haven't even bothered to chime in and pretend to be outraged.

    The majority in the US doesn't give a shit about the police. All of this praise and exaltation of law enforcement that we've seen recently is just a means to bash black people who are fed up with police abuse.

    You're so right. Within hours social media would've been full of Blue Lives Matter memes, and anti-Obama stuff.

    IT WAS. Maybe not the friends you know but it made the DM news, but strangely not the Leftist News. Probably because in the end, TWO INNOCENT Police Officers yet again were murdered in cold blood by a killer who hates BP and LAW ENFORCEMENT.
    Pretty sure they weighed their pros and cons when deciding to bury this story. If Hillary and Obama weren't all over this, you have to ask yourself..why?

    I disagree... From what I see it wasn't at all buried. I saw the story a few times on the various news channels that I watch and websites that I frequent, but I know for a fact that any time police are intentionally injured/killed and the suspect is a person of color... It truly floods social media. This time... not much at all. Admittedly, just a small percentage of my FB friends would buy into mentality of Blue Lives/All Lives Matter.

    Do l detect a passive insult towards them, in that?

    It's not at all passive, but making a point It is a fact that someone who's saying... Hey... Black Lives Matter (too) is usually a different mentality from the person saying... All Lives Matter/Blue Lives Matter.

    Because they don't have to play defense against the Republicans politicizing the deaths of the officers.

    Officers get killed in the line of duty all over the country year round. Generally, the President isn't expected to comment every time that it happens. The murders of officers are only portrayed as national tragedies in the press when people purported to be involved with the black protest movement are responsible.

    Most of the ambush police killings in recent years have been perpetrated by those Sovereign Citizen whackjobs who claim not to be citizens of any country, yet I've never heard any high-profile politician come out and denounce them.

    Immediately after this happened...

    Police dispatch describe the shooter as a Black male in orange shorts.

    Where is the outrage especially from Heather Mac Donald and her ilk?

    Exactly
    She knows what's up but plays dumb
    It's obvious to everyone that there is propaganda when it comes to this shit.
    Like it's been said funny how all lives matter ONLY speak up when the accountability for the killing of black people come up.

    Right.
    But hopefully you understand that many of those are unwittingly (incorrectly) viewing it as being exclusionary.

    U.K Daily Mail (U.S News).
    The main US liberal news outlets were quiet. Very strange.

    She is right on the first half. I saw on youtube the racist comments. I knew it wasn't a black person because lets be real Iowa.....Not that many black people there.

    On the opposite, I'd like to know what is a leftist News as I saw many stations including CNN reporting on this. unless I am to assume that you believe CNN is not leftist...

    They are just looking to blame black people and BLM for this, but they got nothing.. yet. Just like they had nothing when that caretaker got shot. They need something so they won't (at least to them) sound crazy and racist. That is one of the ways racist people are now days. They need something usually a reach to "protect" themselves when spewing their racist rhetoric about black people so they can use that reach to defend themselves as not being racist.

    That's not a surprise. International news outlets (i.e. Al Jazeera and RT) tend to be more honest about news in the U.S. than the mainstream news outlets in the U.S.


    Bliss are you a watcher of Fox News Channel or something? It feels weird for you to be saying "Liberal News Outlets" instead of "Mainstream News Outlets" like most people who criticize the news outlets.
