I recently saw a TV news bit that had a black woman and her 11-year-old daughter on the screen.
The mother gave a standard anti-police interview that you always get from a black ghetto person when a child or neighbor has been shot.
What was unusual was to hear this 11-year-old parroting the same anti-police trope. How badly the police (usually a mixed race police force) treat blacks.
With that attitude I do not think the 11-year-old girl will live to be 16.
This blog is not about the short life that girl faces because of her anti-police attitudes. It is about the violence that is currently running amok in the black neighborhoods throughout America from Oakland to Detroit to DC to New Orleans.
It is about the fact that police are human beings.
I sympathize with the police. When you are hired to protect citizens who hold you in contempt and you are risking your life, you have no reason to answer the phone calls, to leave the police station or to drive your police car to their neighborhood.
You are human being who wants to lead a full life. Why should you risk your life for people who do not appreciate you? Why should you risk your life when they permit killers with high-power weapons to walk freely around the neighborhood and never be reported?
If you are a police person you don't risk your life for these people. The black community has brought this disaster upon themselves.
The people I have sympathy for are the neighbors in non-ghetto areas who are not getting police protection because the police won't leave their station houses.
