Watching the detectives

After the recent murders of police officers in Dallas and Baton Rouge, Steve Loomis, the President of the Cleveland Police Patrolman's Association proclaimed that President Obama was to blame (why--because he's black?) and wondered how police officers had become the bad guys.

I think I can answer that.

It's because prosecutors across America have decided that police officers can murder American citizens with impunity.

See how easy that was?

Fear of a mad black protester

And if they're not blaming President Obama for the deaths of two New York City police officers this past weekend, they're blaming people exercising their first amendment right to peacefully assemble,

New York Police Union President Pat Lynch said there was "blood on many hands tonight" including the protestors in his fair city.  (By the way, am I the only one who wonders if this overplaying of their hand by police union leaders makes unions as a whole look bad?)

Not to be outdone, Missouri Senator Roy Blunt said criticism of police tactics from his own constituents led to the deaths of the two police officers.  (Apparently Senator Blunt isn't happy with merely losing 95% of the African-American vote, he's shooting for 100%.)

The only action the protesters in Ferguson and New York City (and those across American who joined them) are guilty of is seeking justice.  The deaths of two men who did a job most of us want no part of and provide a service we all need is tragic--it is not a time to place blame where it doesn't belong.

But it's standard fare--think welfare queen.  Think driving while black.  Think stop and frisk.  Think black on black crime.  It's a whole hell of a lot easier to concoct bullshit about the messengers than it is to debunk their message.

The only thing we have to fear is their selling of fear

Never missing an opportunity to spew hate and stoke fear, Fox News and Rudy Giulani are doing their best to convince our more ignorant fellow Americans that the shooting deaths of two police officers in New York City this past weekend are the fault of President Obama.  Shocking, I know.

No, the murders are not the fault of the President--they were committed by a young man with a history of mental health problems.

But anybody want to guess the state of affairs in America if either of two tone deaf bozos named John McCain or Mitt Romney had been President when the grand jury decisions on Michael Brown and Eric Garner were handed down?  Or having Sarah Palin wax poetic on the state of race affairs in America?

The jackasses ought to get down on their hands and knees and thank God that we have Obama for our President--his steady hand and empathetic nature have been the only things keeping us from a maelstrom of anarchy from a people thirsting for justice.
