BP's Apparently Are NOT Fond of LEOs...

Outlander,

I think you mean, “It’s a no win game.” Not a, “Zero-sum game.”

A zero-sum game would mean that the cops would have to balance patrolling majority minority/poor neighbors and majority white/wealthy neighborhoods, because they need to protect both and there’s only so much to go around.

In any case, it doesn’t seem that black men and women carrying weapons openly leads to calls for gun bans. At least not any more. And that’s progress, of a sort.

I think this would be in the news if they were doing it in support of the protestors/rioters in Fergusson while in Fergusson. Just as the Oath Keepers (and two other, smaller anti-government groups) “protecting” a mine on public property from the Feds isn’t in the news, but the Oath Keepers and the Oath Keepers alone being paid by Alex Jones to protect his reporters in Fergusson is.

@jpmuscle

No kidding. Any opposition they’d face would be spun to be the aggressor. LEO, civilian, or otherwise.

Isn’t that exactly what happened in Ferguson? The attorney general didn’t go there to investigate the rioters.

Real talk:
In those late night moments of cigarettes and bizarre streetside commiseration, I was told by a black citizen who was certainly no angel.

He said, “Man, black folks (well he used another word I’m not going to use just because it’s polite not to) act like they hate the police. And they don’t like being stopped by the police or getting caught by the police. But who do they always call? The Police. And you wanna know why? Because we don’t trust each other.”

Experience has shown that while they may actually hate the police, there is still that unspoken trust. Like…like with children. You run to your parents when scared but resent punishment.

And some parents, certainly not most, are abusive or ignorant.

And there are more than a few non-black officers, far far from being great white liberals, who have wept over the bodies of black kids, adopted black families, and consider the most godless urban blight imaginable as their neighborhood too.

If these silly black panthers actually cared they’d collect food for eldetly women too proud for EBT, or they’d get together and restore shanty houses, they’d form a neighborhood watch to find out why in the hell 13 year olds are out at 0300. They’d sit down and say “We forgive your past if you forgive our present”.

But no, that would be too much work and wherewithal. Require too much humility. So…people suffer. People hold themselves back.
They have my deepest condolences, but no sympathy.

So yell, wear a fake uniform, carry a gun you’ll never use…or get over yourselves and get a real life

It’s easier to blame “whitey” for your problems and just hate.

Again, they are no different from the KKK who blame “blacks” for destroying the country and just hate.

It’s easier to blame others (especially if they seem different from you) for all of societies problems than accept any responsibility for those problems, or worse…work for a solution to those problems.

For far too many, hate is the only thing they have. The worse thing that could ever happen is for people to actually work together and do any of the things you suggested.

I wonder what percentage of the people in those photos are police informants?

Things that make you go “Hmmmmmmm…”

:lol: I’m literally dying of laughter at these yahoos.

First off, they intimidate no one.
Second, the police are protecting them from others. Not the other way around.
Third, they make all these promises of revolution and force. “Oink Oink, Bang Bang”. But if one of them actually tried it. Actually tried to shoot anybody, they’d be cut in half and whomever survived couldn’t drop their stuff fast enough to call the NAACP or SPLC or the media complaining of a massacre.

Not an ounce of legit fight in any of them. But, hey, whatever boosts self esteem.
That said, other people should get to chant, sing, and carry on with openly beared arms too without DHS investigating them. Sauce for goose and sauce for gander, right?

I wouldn’t laugh. The seething hatred that a lot of black (and people of other races) have for white people has caused, is causing and will continue to cause a lot of problems in the US, and the West in general.
Look at the crime statistics when broken down by race of the perp and victim.
These racists don;t plan to fight on a battlefield, and this was a symbolic chest puffing exercise, but the harm they and their ideas do in other parts of the world is very real.

@thei3ug

I for one am happy to see Americans exercising their rights to peaceably assemble and bear arms.
Sure, they want to kill me, but they didn’t, and that shows class.

The reason they didn’t kill you has nothing to do with class, and more to do with the armed cops standing watch over them.
Given the opportunity, they wouldn’t think twice about killing you and your entire family.

@Crow_Hunter

Can you imagine the media outcry if someone of a different color had done the same thing with a different flag without even having guns…

Immediate criminal charges and life ruined forever.

@SteyrAUG

These days Obama would send out the Guard and 82nd Airborne to help protect the civil rights of the BPs.

He’d call in artillery and close air support for his fellow Black supremacist Marxist brethren.

Let’s hope that is the case. I hope they are as loaded with informants and undercover as any Aryan Nations group. Too bad we can’t get another SLA barbecue out of this group.

It’s zero sum, in terms of Society as a whole being the loser.

For the Police, it is definitely a “no-win”.

One can only hope…
