Poor Mike.

He keeps going back to Sharpton because it's the only play he's got.

But for every Sharpton on the left, we have a thousand Krazy Assed Klowns on the right to throw back in your face.

The knuckledraggers sure are riled up today, it must be because the Ferguson grand jury decision is set to be announced this afternoon.

I give Giuliani credit in the clean up of the city.

However he is always spouting nonsense. He has his eye on the lucrative security business.

BTW the reason why there are so many white cops in any area black or
white: A cop's pay/benefits are on the average better than for those jobs facing
working Joe.

Yeah, he's hawking for some identity theft protection scam now.

What's interesting is that they flash some rally fine print that you can barley see that says they can't guarantee that you identity won't be stolen if you sign up with them.

Giuliani doesn't have the capacity to frame the concern he was trying to establish, mainly because he doesn't hold it close to his heart. It is a two parter.

Why do we not hold all lives to be precious, and not allow murder? Especially in the black community, where 93% of all homicide is black on black, AND where close to 50% remain unsolved because no witnesses come forward.

What Giuliani tried to point out, in his usual inept manner, was the duality of the overwhelming black community's concern regarding police brutality, and the almost complete silence in investigations for many black on black murders.

There needs to be an evolution to where all murder investigations receive equal overwhelming support from the black community. The culture of omerta, and disdain for snitching, needs to end. Accountability needs to begin.

^^^^ The thing is Dave if you come forward as a witness in a black on black murder you are likely to wind up dead. If you complain or offer testimony in a white cop on black killing no one is going to shoot you.

Omertà is a cultural response to protracted oppression. It does not arise spontaneously or for no reason. Sure it interferes with the honest rule of law, if and as that is attempted. But once it's going, you can't get rid of it just by saying it's bad and should stop.
