Sheriffs Deputy Gunned Down

Go tell this deputy's family that he deserved to die because of questionable shootings by other cops. I DARE YOU

Why in the world would it justify anything??? Didn't I say the shooting was unfortunate? Read an entire text so that you don't look stupid. Deserved to die!!! That's moronic. We lost 4,500 Americans in a very stupid war in Iraq, the consequences of Bush's blunder. But I don't think that those Americans deserved to die. You have issues.

Mumia is a hero to anti cop extremists and racist blacks everywhere. He is a convicted cop killer in PA whom many left-wingers claim was framed. IIRC he was shot by the dead cop. The proof against him was pretty damning

Thank you. Never heard of him or his case.

News from The Associated Press

HOUSTON (AP) -- Authorities are still pursuing a suspect in the death of a uniformed sheriff's deputy who was shot several times while filling up his patrol car at a suburban Houston gas station, they said Saturday afternoon during a strongly worded news conference..

It's proof that people need to move out of the suburbs and into the inner cities where it's safe.
 
The deputy had gone to the Chevron gas station in Cypress, a middle-class to upper middle-class suburban area of Harris County that is unincorporated and located northwest of Houston, after responding to a routine car accident earlier Friday....

Harris County....again. Tensions must be running real high there. My sincerest condolences to Deputy Darren Goforth's family and friends.

I understand the sentiment, but is this a good idea to have all that flammable material near a gas pump?

And its horrible. Think this trooper was just trying to help a motorist. Serving and protecting in a way that doesn't require enforcement action. And it cost him his life.

That was terrible but this case of the officer getting shot in the back while filling his car is maddening. What the hell is going on?

I have a friend's son who is a police officer and just couple weeks ago he responded to residential shootout with police. His patrol car was hit by bullets and was the first time in his career he was shot at. The perp was finally killed by police. Getting close to home.

Are you suggesting that police wrongdoing is always excusable?

I am suggesting that police wrongdoing has to be proven as wrongdoing first.

The media jumps on the "bad cop" bandwagon trying to turn any incident into a police officer being a criminal to sell papers.

Some people lack the ability to review information received, examine what is and isn't being told in news reports, and make the smart decision to sit back and wait for better information.

Some people lack the proper skepticism to actually process news reports.

Wouldn't it be a little late to call a cop then. Better to call an ambulance; you can always stop by a donut shop and pick up a cop on the way to the hospital.

If someone is running a knife through your chest, it's a bit too late to call the cops.

I don't think it means that he deserved to die, but as the rift between the People and the government widen due to certain agents ofngovernnent forces, such as the police, not being properly punished for comitting crimes, things like this will happen.

It's a devastating, dispicable act and I hope the one responsible spends the rest of his life behind bars. But this is likely not the end of it. Public trust in the police must be restored, and part of doing that will be rooting out all the bad apples and making sure they are properly punished.

Maybe it's the unfortunate consequences of so many extrajudicial shootings by cops of late, captured on video.

Then again, maybe it's guilt by association, profiling or racism. Why not choose an officer who was accused of wrong doing, not in uniform or non-white? Affter all, you would likely not cut a police officer any slack for coming down harder on a member of a "high crime" group (perhaps a young black male?) - trying to explain it away as an "unfiortunate consequence".

What beliefs would those be? Generic analogies don't work.

It's as valid as what I responded to. And will get as much effort as what I responded to.

No, what you responded to was someone pointing out that the #BlackLivesMatter movement and the Ferguson movement have been specifically hostile to law enforcement even occasionally calling for violence against police officers.

Now show me where Fenton has ever called for violence against blacks since you have chosen to link Fenton's beliefs to the church shooting. If you can't then apologize.

Conservatives sometimes call for violence against blacks, therefore conservatism is responsible for violence against blacks.

It's the same thing you're doing: Painting anyone using a twitter hashtag with the same brush and declaring they're responsible for murdering a police officer. The same logic makes you responsible for murder.

They can be accessories. Al Sharpton Leads March in DC as NYC Protesters Chant: 'What Do We Want? Dead Cops!' - Breitbart
 
"Black Lives Shatter". Bottom line. How pathetic blacks are with all their stupid mottos while the continue to look at family as a blockade to welfare checks. "Black Lives Matter" What a brilliant thought provoking slogan! What poetic genius of propaganda thought that up? Why Not "blacks have feet"? Equally profound don't you think? It is like that stupid 50 year old "What do we want? Bla Bla! When do we want it ? Now"! How unique and breath taking those things are as they prove beyond any doubt the bums on the streets have no clue what they are there for. And how does anyone hold down a job while spending a weeks protesting?

I think what you meant to say is that some conservatives have said violence is justified against looters, rioters, or criminals who happen to be black.

You were talking about FENTON'S beliefs specifically, not a generic accusation of a group. So tell me which of Fenton's beliefs lead to the church shootings.

Nope. I am saying that the #blacklivematter and Ferguson protesters have called for violence against the police. This is true.

You then tried to connect Fenton's beliefs with murder, which you can't prove and amounts to slander.

You give Deuce too much credit. Deuce is trying to claim that Fenton's beliefs specifically lead to the North Carolina Church shootings. It's an abysmally idiotic attempt at deflection on Deuce's part.
