So, let's get this straight – white guy with confederate flag pics shoots up a church, and we impose a purge on any historical imagery of the confederacy.
Black guy with #BLM Â pics shoots up white cops, and "We cannot let the actions of a few define all of us"?
There is a blinding hypocrisy here, and Barry is just making it worse for everyone. Blacks are afraid of trigger happy police. Police are afraid of ambushes by #BLM Â terrorists. In the meantime, somehow, we're supposed to believe that all of this crazy is because of firearms that magically pervert normal people into racist cops, or racist terrorists.
Bottom line:
1) inner city violence requires a police presence to manage, but it will take a cultural change on behalf of inner city residents to fix;
2) use of force by police must be scrutinized, minimized, and held to the highest standards;
3) self-defense is a natural right that should not be abridged.
