It’s also interesting that ALL of the analyses of police killings I have read (mostly from Heather Mac Donald) are focused exclusively on black MEN. Of course, that’s the way the Left is framing the narrative, and they are higher profile cases due to media reports, but the women’s deaths Crenshaw talks about are, in some ways, even worse. I suspect none of the officers was in any danger of being hurt or killed by the women, although I would have to do some research on that.

At any rate, making “martyrs” of the women may be next on the #BLM agenda, and they are probably more sympathetic ones for the public, even if some might have egregious rap sheets like the men’s (the few cited in the story didn’t seem to).

However, it was pure theater to shout that at Rand Paul, since he is sponsoring a bill that addresses at least one of the causes of wrongful deaths that Crenshaw should be concerned about.

So, I’m going for “ignorant mob” on this one; even if the leaders knew who Paul was (but why deliberately target him?), the followers were going to shout at anyone.

This note was not signed.

Now that’s some comprehensive 360 degree hate, and also projection on a massive scale i.e I’m betting that, whatever the letter writer accuses this Trump supporter of, is exactly what the letter writer himself/herself is guilty of; they’ve inadvertently given us an image of their mind and attitudes.

Two choice quotes, among a lot of other choice accusations–

“You make it clear by these signs that you neither respect us as humans nor believe we are entitled to equal protections and rights under the laws of this great country. You do not believe that we deserve life, liberty or the pursuit of happiness, that we are not really Americans to you, simply because we may not look like you or share your beliefs. So again, thank you for showing us the prejudice and hate that truly fills your heart and telling us so proudly that although you may be our neighbor, we are not equally yours.”

And–

“P.S. If you believe yourself to be a Christian (which we assume is also likely) thank you for further proving that you do not hold true Christian values or follow the teaching of Christ, who preached love and acceptance for all your neighbors. We sure hope you enjoy the heat!”

High level sources tell me:
– The Secret Service wanted to protect the Trump guests returning to their hotels but @MayorBowser refused.

The W is across the street from the White House and yet the SS wasn’t given clearance to provide safe transport.
…
To clear up the initial tweet: the secret service requested additional coordination and support from MPD and it was refused. The SS is not in the business of protecting ordinary citizens on the streets of DC. The mayor is.

And she declined to address this serious issue.

And since this gentleman has been brought up on a related post: this reply was in are in that same thread the first time I accessed it, but the randomness of Twitter has moved it into an alternate universe now.

Bro, it’s 2020!

Black people are not oppressed in America!

Just as Nationwide Insurance is not in fact “on your side,” but selling a product which they hope you will buy at a profit to them, political pros, presumably on both sides, construct ads which have everything to do with potential voters buying the product and little or nothing to do with what the party’s actual intentions are.

Democratic Mayor agrees to cause as much mischief as possible in planning conference with DNC.

Democratic Mayor meets with Chief of Police to ensure resources are dispatched to achieve desired effect.

DNC sends message through the legally-deniable firewalls to the PACs and logistical support groups that organize BLM and Antifa employees.

Lather, rinse, repeat. This is exactly what has been going on in the Democratic cities across the USA.

Meanwhile in DC, US Marshals, National Park police, FBI/DOJ, and Secret Service try to plug the holes as they have done on past riots this year. But they cannot venture onto city streets outside of strictly-defined areas.

Just guessing of course.
