The song remains the same......different day

There is nothing new under the sun. We have seen all this before.

In 1999 Amadou Diallo was shot dead by four policeman in a very unfortunate incident that was every bit as publicized and exploited as that of Michael Brown. Four undercover policemen tried to stop Mr. Diallo to question him in regard to the search for serial rapist. Mr. Diallo fled from the police most likely because of a language barrier and the fact that he was an illegal immigrant. Mr. Diallo ran into a vestibule where the house light was out and he was silhouetted by the hall light. He took out his wallet and one of the cops panicked and shouted gun. The cops fired 41 times and tragically Mr. Diallo died.

That tragedy was also gleefully exploited by many of the same bad actors that involved in the current attacks on the police. There were daily demonstrations at One Police Plaza and the usual collection of progressive demagogues such as Al Sharpton, Susan Sarandon, Tim Robbins, David Dinkins, Basil Patterson. Harry Belafonte and the rest of the band were arrested daily and freed in ten minutes with a desk appearance ticket in a no cost day of outrage. Every day the outrage and hate was flamed and the police department was once again under siege. The officers were brought to trial by a multiracial jury in Albany and acquitted. They could not get a fair trial in NYC because of the racial inferno incited by these “activists.” Still a jury of their peers acquitted them. Not that it mattered to the racial arsonists and poverty pimps and the politicians who represent the criminal class.

The progressive left reveled in their protests at the time. But a few short years later something else happened. 911.

Suddenly cop and fireman hate was not fashionable. There was a rally at MSG to “support” the cops and fireman. Hillary Clinton came and was booed off the stage. Sarandon and Robbins and De Niro and bunch of others were told to take a walk. They wanted to pretend that they actually supported the uniform services and wanted accolades for their pretend concern. They were rightfully scorned and ignored.

You see you need to step up and speak up when the crowd is shouting against the law. When the pro criminal crowd was shouting “Kill the Police”….that was the time for De Blasio and Obama and Holder to speak up. When hipster and libtard professors are blocking traffic so ambulance can’t get through and people die…well that is the time to say something. When the protestors where fighting and beating those two police lieutenants on the bridge. When that college professor was throwing a garbage can into ongoing traffic. Not now. It is too late.

Obama and De Blasio will never say “That could have been my son” about these cops. Because you know that their children or the children of any of the professors or journalists or pundits will ever be cops or fireman or soldiers. Cops and fireman come from the working class.  Contrary to Obama and Holder and Sharpton and De Blasio they are not all racist white guys from Long Island. They are Spanish and Asian like the two cops who died. They are black like the sergeant who was in charge when Garner died. Working class men and woman with families who put their bodies between you and the criminal class like Michael Brown.

Those are the people who they hate. Those are the people who they want dead. Those are the people that they scorn. These murders are directly due to their actions. To hateful rhetoric and political posturing. They have blood on their hands.
