Hibernating in 2016

 

 

Deadliest attacks on police in the last 100 years

 

Amid a month of racial conflict and gun violence, at least three police officers were killed in Baton Rouge Sunday, adding to the tally of law enforcement officials slain in the line of duty in 2016.

 

Before Sunday’s shooting, 60 line-of-duty deaths had occurred in the USA this year, according to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund. Twenty-eight of the fatalities were firearm-related, a 56% increase from firearm-related fatalities at this point in 2015.

 

Just 10 days before Baton Rouge, five Dallas police officers were killed in what was the greatest loss of life for law enforcers since 9/11.

 

Though rare, these attacks are not the first time police officers have been targeted. Here is a look at some of the deadliest attacks on  law enforcement officers in the last 100 years:

You know what else sane Americans knew was rare at the time and still to this day? That Black people are "hunted" by police every time they leave their house.  

 

I'm sorry LeBron felt that way growing up.  And still to this day for some reason.  

 

It's just not 1897 anymore.  Just because the Fake Media hypes up and plays up every single time a black person is shot by police (a number that had been decreasing for years) does not make it the norm, and it doesn't make all cops let alone all white people racist.  

 

Sane Americans know this.  Unfortunately we don't have many of those left.  

 

If there was a problem between Minneapolis police and the community, I don't know.  Maybe that liberal hole in the ground should have been addressing it in the decades the Democrats have run it.

 

But here has always been the truth.  The Democrats don't care.  Racial violence is good for the party.  Same reason they don't care about illegal immigration.  Good for the party.   

 

And Americans Black and White suffer for it.  

Oh goodie we're going back 100 years.  That means we can just get the Greenwood riot from 1921 in.  Racism wasn't quite as rare then, I guess  Here's a discussion about it:  

Scott Pelley: How many people were arrested, tried, for what happened in Greenwood?

John W. Franklin: No one. 

Scott Pelley: Two or 300 people murdered, an entire community burned to the ground, and the police were unable to find a single person.

John W. Franklin: It's a real tragedy.

John W. Franklin: All the thousands of claims that were filed by African Americans, not a one, not a one insurance company paid their claim. And our church was included.

No insurance honored for black Tulsans, no arrests made, no complete count of the dead. The Salvation Army recorded only that it fed 37 grave diggers. The nameless were buried in unmarked graves while their families were locked down in the internment camps.

Scott Pelley: I wonder if there are any doubts in this room about whether there are mass graves in Tulsa, Oklahoma. No doubts?

Wow.  Fascinating.

 

You should read about the death, destruction, carnage, bloodshed, and devastation conducted roughly 60 years before this in order to end slavery forever.

Oh, I actually know a lot about the war which lost the same amount of Americans as this just a flu that's going to magically go away by Easter.  Now if we can just work on making racism go away forever.  BTW, do you think anyone deserves a cookie for righting a wrong???  The word we use to describe that is actually shame.

Wait what?  

 

Are you saying the sacrifice made by those that fought and died to end slavery deserve merely a 'cookie?'

 

What are you talking about?

 

 

And what does the Tulsa riot 100 years ago have to do with all the terror you live with today in this country?

Slavery of black Americans persisted for 80 years after the Civil War.

The keys to the universe are racist.  Who knew?

 

 

 

This women is very proud of her ignorance. Math is not something created it is simply the understanding of how numbers and shapes work. She could more realistically argue Oxygen is racist because white people discovered it since Algebra is an Arabic word since it was first discovered by Arabs.

Actually, the Civil War wasn't fought to "end slavery forever".  The reality is that it was fought to perpetuate slavery forever.  Lincoln and the Republicans did not run on the idea of ending slavery.  They did not oppose slavery in the states where it already existed but wanted to stop slavery from spreading into the western territories.  The  people of the north and the west fought the Civil War to preserve the Union, not end slavery.  The southern states that seceded sought to protect and expand slavery by leaving the Union and establishing a country where slavery would not only be the law of the land, it couldn't ever be abolished.   The Confederate Constitution is almost a carbon copy of the US Constitution except in 2 main instances: states rights and slavery ... except that when it came to slavery, states had no rights to regulate or eliminate it.

 

Slavery was the cause of the Civil War, but ending slavery was a consequence of the southern rebellion.  It never was a Union war aim.   In fact, early in the war, it was common practice for the Union Army to return slaves who had escaped to their lines to their masters, but Union General Benjamin Butler famously declared 3 escaped slaves "contraband of war", ie, war materiel.  This was controversial at first, but as politicians and military men realized that the Confederates were using slaves in the war effort, slaves who escaped to the Union lines were employed in the Union war effort as manual laborers, teamsters, etc and even as spies.  The longer the war continued, the more accepting of the idea of freeing the slaves northerners became.  By 1863, the Union was recruiting ex-slaves as soldiers.  By the end of the war, more than 185,000 Black men, mostly ex-slaves, had fought for the Union cause.

 

The Union's strategy was to strangle the South and force a rebel surrender.   The first step was to blockade southern ports to prevent the export of cotton and the importation of military goods.  The second part was to deprive the Confederacy of access to trade through Texas (from ships that came into Mexican ports) by establishing control of the Mississippi River. Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation was another part of that effort; depriving the Confederacy of a reliable labor supply to produce foodstuffs and military supplies as well as support for the southern armies.  The Proclamation only freed slaves in areas not under Union control, ie, the Confederate states.   It did not free slaves in the slave states of Delaware, Kentucky, Maryland, and Missouri which hadn't joined the Confederacy.   The Thirteenth Amendment ended slavery for all time in the US.

Bill Gates Foundation Donated $140 Million To [Re]Education Groups: To Avoid “White Supremacy Culture”…Teachers Should Answer Math Problems “without using words or numbers”

 

“A radical new push to purge math curricula of allegedly racist practices like showing your work and finding the correct answer is bankrolled by one of the nation’s most prominent nonprofits: the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.”

 

The Gates Foundation is the only donor mentioned on the homepage of A Pathway to Equitable Math Instruction, a group of 25 education organizations whose curriculum states that asking students to show their work and find the right answer is an inherently racist practice.”

 

So, according to this, showing your work is not only racist but also ‘paternal’–which means ‘fatherly’.  So, it too is bad.

 

Keep in mind that this is not unique to the this single globalist organization.  In fact, similar teachings are arising all over America–including at the prestigious Smithsonian, which produced a handout claiming that everything about Western culture and successful mindsets and behaviors are somehow racist forms of a racist white culture:

Excellent post. While the 13th Amendment  abolished slavery in US law, many Southern states reconstituted slavery through vagrancy laws that made it illegal for black people to be in public without a job.

 

Unemployed black man were then mass encacerted and sold to companies for slave labor. The companies would pay the state the "vagrancy" fine over a period of years while putting the black prisoner to work in the field or mines. This second wave of US slavery continued through the 1940's.

The problem is that the collective "we" have never had this discussion.

Germany paid reparations to Israel for 70 years after WWII for the Holocaust.

 

The US has never even apologized for slavery, Jim Crow and redlining.

Are you sure about that?

 

Quote

The formal apology for slavery and Jim Crow issued by the U.S. House of Representatives in 2008 was unprecedented, even after decades of lawmakers trying to push the government to finally apologize, NPR reported at the time. In introducing the resolution, Representative Steve Cohen (D-Tenn), noted that despite the government issuing an apology for interning Japanese citizens and later pressuring Japan to apologize for forcing Chinese women to work as sex slaves during World War II, the American government had never formally recognized and apologized for slavery. While the apology was primarily symbolic, by officially recognizing its role in perpetuating the horrors of slavery and Jim Crow, the American government took a step forward in addressing and atoning for one of its greatest wrongs.

The Senate made the apology bill non-binding and added this disclaimer:

 

(2) DISCLAIMER- Nothing in this resolution--

 

(A) authorizes or supports any claim against the United States; or

 

(B) serves as a settlement of any claim against the United States.

Happy for thirteenth Amendment. Noone should be a slave to anyone. For all types of people and girls.
