He did. I even pointed out that Ferguson PD is statistically better than national averages in an earlier response to you.

Militarization has a part to play here. Like the scene from the end of batman begins... Escalation.

Militarism of the police has an opposite effect on communities where crime is generally high.

My narrative? shite, my narrative is that this whole thing where cops were shot is directly due to an incompetent attorneys general in holder, and race baiting by Obama.

I'm watching the police chiefs presser right now. He just stated that the shots were 125 yards away not 225. Anyone that can operate a rifle can make that shot.

What are you inferring when you keep saying "militarization of the police"? And are you suggesting that the increase in defiance from the populace is due to this militarization? What is this based on...a gut feeling?

To add onto that, no trained snipers take head shots when body shots are available. A center mass shot with a rifle is almost certainly a death sentence.

He's talking about the acquisition of weaponry and equipment that has been surplused by the military. I actually agree with him on this.

Cubans are siding with whites. Florida is covered. Most illegals don't carry because if they get caught they know it's a trip back to their motherland.

The central Americans will side with whites. Puerto Ricans are the wild card to taking Orlando would be a bit tricky but the pressure from the West from Tampa and from the South from Miami would make them come around quickly.

We'll move West to Texas in case they need help.



florida has a LOT of blacks though.

Texas should be covered, but some Mexicans identify with black culture more than white.

I really hope this doesn't happen, but if it does, it would suck to live in the south and Chicago.

So what does that have to do with the incidents that have occured in the last year or so?

Not really. Louisiana has more legal guns per-capita than any other state in the union

He actually just said that they recovered pistol shell casings from the scene and due to the way the shots sounded they are "pretty sure" the shots came from a pistol.
Sounds like some asshat just shooting towards police and got a couple lucky shots in.

15% black in FL
32% black in LA
10% black in TX

Sure, pure numbers wise but still not enough.

ETA: Just to be clear...I'm in now way advocating a race war. That's just stupid.

Chris Kyle said it in his book. I'll take his word. Plus I know a good bit about guns and shooting and stuff.


Thanks for playing though.



Stop watching movies

It doesn't, but they have to find something or someone else to blame this crap on.

That's part of his stance on escalation of violence he's referring to. Police aggression increases and civilian aggression increases. They are tied together and no one is backing down. The criminals get bigger guns, the police get bigger guns. Eventually that powder keg is going to blow up.

I don't think this is a new phenomenon either, but the media is blowing it up, pun intended.

And FWIW I don't agree with him looking at it like he does, I'd rather take it on a case by case scenario.
