Default Race Relations Have Ratcheted It Up A Bit
It all started with Treyvon Martin.
In the NASCAR thread, I had posted this, probably wrongly so, but I did.
My handle in Fantasy NASCAR is "The Race Rioters" Back when I coined it over two years ago, I thought it clever.
Peaceful protest, that people mock here, obviously does not work.
Now it's ratcheting up to assassinating police.

Here is my post.

Can you believe my handle?
I had it last year too.
How prophetic.
Not to get too political here, but, I saw this coming for quite some time

If I can see it, why couldn't LE ?

Information gathering has been hampered by rules implemented in the last 7 years that FORBID using a certain religion of peace as a marker for certain lists.

Too much news. One guy does something stupid, and the coverage makes it look like it's the norm; which encourages more stupidity.

Get used to it.

You and everyone here knows when race relations started to deteriorate: With the election of Obama, who has aided, abetted, and given immunity to Blacks and Muslims no matter what atrocities they commit. If a Black murders a White or a White police offficer, it's not reported. If a Muslim does a terrorist act, it's the fault of guns.

Anyone with any common sense sees this. Police have been slow in speaking out, but no more. We now have a war going on.

What makes you think they didn't see it? I know several cops very well and they have been saying for several years that we have a problem coming.

Yup

It just wasn't the politically correct thing to speak about publicly...

Add to that the agenda of division pushed by the left.

As long as people qualify what lives "matter" based on skin color this will continue to get worse.

I wouldn't do it. Certainly not for what they get paid.
