Better start soon, today in Philadelphia an attempted murder of a policeman in the name of Islam. Under Bush we had 9/11 and Ft. hood. Under Obama we've had several attacks. Escalating numbers under the passive leader.

BREAKING NEWS-

A Police Officer was shot up by an "Extremist" in Philadelphia. Multiple shots fired @ point blank range. The "Extremist" did it because the police enforce laws contrary to the teaching of the Qu'ran.

Maybe the "Black Lives Matter" movement had influence also. In the past two years the MSM has villanized police officers unjustly.

@MarkG. Yeah, uh-huh. They way those animals acted in Ferguson surely influences others. Perhaps on the new "Background Checks" obama is calling for . . . Perhaps the 1st question into the subject's personal history should be: "Do you support Radical Islam?"

n the past two years the MSM has villanized police officers unjustly.

Your MSM in the bubble refuses to even admit that there is a problem with police killing unarmed black people, while at the same time condemning Obama for not saying Islamic terrorism. It seems your MSM is hypocritical while being as bad as those they condemn.

Time for Michelle to conduct another hashtag campaign?

The help stop "extremist" attacks, the US could decide to stop bombing other countries and starting wars.

the US could decide to stop bombing other countries and starting wars.

The US could also decide to reject islamic refugees from those countries. And deport others who are illegal and have no constitutional rights to be there in the first place.

I can't understand why muslims would want to come to the US. Major League Infidels!

The US should pull all military out of the ME and put them along it's northern and southern borders and become an isolationist state.

The ME should scrap Sharia Law and get their act together. I have been to the Gulf twice, for a total of 5-6 countries visited. Thank god for the oil, the ME is a dump!

Africa too. Yeah, we tried to help them. All those places are still in the stone age though. Good riddance!

As always I agree with this.

All countries would rather do without that kind of "help"

All those places are still in the stone age though.

That's the plan, makes it easier to get their resources.

Closing Langley, then?

FYI Stranger...the police sometimes kill unarmed non-black people too. Your MSM doesn't inform you of that. It spoils the agenda.

Leaving the ME could lead to a nuclear war within the region. Since when was the region in true peace? The Brits and French couldn't do it either.

No one has claimed otherwise.

Sure they do:

Being there isn't going to stop that, and may very well provoke it.

Since when was the region in true peace?

Has it ever been? All the better reason to leave them to each other.

Do you know the full impact of a regional nuclear war? Do you realize the global economy depends on the region not only for oil. How many lives are you willing to wipe away simply turning a blind eye?

As for the police..... StrangerlandJAN. 09, 2016 - 04:58PM JST Not me. I'm still calling bigotry.

Kick these guys out for sure. But painting them all as bad due to the actions of a few is exactly bigotry.

......you say the US police have a serious problem killing unarmed black men yet you do dig up they kill unarmed non-black. Yet you paint the police all one color.

And the west is going to prevent by having their military there how?

Do you realize the global economy depends on the region not only for oil. How many lives are you willing to wipe away simply turning a blind eye?

We only kill more of them by being there, and they only want to kill more of us by our being there. Let them kill each other.

......you say the US police have a serious problem killing unarmed black men yet you do dig up they kill unarmed non-black. Yet you paint the police all one color.

The US police do have a serious problem with killing unarmed black men. And yes, I did show some stories that show the police kill unarmed non-black men as well (proving your last comment that our 'MSM' doesn't report this news as being flat out wrong in the process). I'm not sure what relevance you think the two have - are you saying that killing an unarmed non-black person cancels out the killing of an unarmed black person? Or that killing unarmed black people is excused as long as they kill unarmed non-black people too? Anyways, dig up some numbers that show the number of unarmed black men killed vs. other races, and it's very clear that there is a problem. Just to give you a pointer though - you're probably going to have to look in other places that your MSM, as your MSM is focused on denying there is a problem, rather than exposing it. Let me know if you need to know some other websites than Fox News.

you paint the police all one color

Let's review my comment:

Your MSM in the bubble refuses to even admit that there is a problem with police killing unarmed black people

Please point out exactly which part of that sentence paints the police all one color? I pointed out that their is a problem, and that's all I did. I didn't make any claims as to all police one way or another.

If it's not clear, I'm once again proving your comments wrong, as I did not paint all the police one color.

Let me know if you have anything else you'd like me to prove you wrong with - I'm batting 100 with my last couple of posts.

You must not have recalled your post on the German immigrants you posted hours ago.

You don't want all them in the same box as the rapists and trouble makers. Just as I DO NOT wast police in the USA painted in one color either. The police do a fantastic job and the media and its followers have made it more dangerous for all the men and women in blue.

Look into the crime stats by percentage and population percentage. You may not like what you see.

Sure I do. I very rightly pointed out that painting the entire group as evil do to the actions of a minority is exactly bigotry.

I DO NOT wast police in the USA painted in one color either.

Good thing I didn't do it then. I'll re-quote my post, since you don't seem to have read it either of the other two times I posted it:

Your MSM in the bubble refuses to even admit that there is a problem with police killing unarmed black people

As you can see, I didn't say anything about the police as a whole, I simply pointed out a problem that exists within the police.

The police do a fantastic job

I agree. Most police are doing it because they want to serve their fellow people. Very respectable. Unfortunately within this group of respectable people, they have an issue whereby at some times, some of them shoot unarmed black people, at an amount that is beyond reasonable. This is a problem that needs to be addressed, if not only so that the good police do not have their images tarnished by being associated with the bad cops, by those without the intelligence to realize that they are not the same people.
