The fruits of liberalism have ripened and are now being harvested in several cities across the nation. The wretched Obama administration has set its sights on police in this nation and the returns are coming in. Following the Michael Brown shooting and the evidence supported Darren Wilson’s account of the incident Eric Holder and his race Nazis at the DOJ goose stepped all over the Ferguson Police Department demanding a “wholesale change.” Holder said he was prepared to “dismantle” the Ferguson PD.
In Cleveland a judge found a police officer not guilty in the shooting of two:
A Cleveland police officer was acquitted Saturday for his role in the 2012 fatal shooting of two unarmed people in a car after officers mistook the sound of the car backfiring as gunshots.
After a four-week trial, a judge found Michael Brelo, 31, not guilty of two counts of felony voluntary manslaughter in the deaths of Timothy Russell, 43, and Malissa Williams, 30. Russell and Williams were killed Nov. 29, 2012, after they led 62 police vehicles on a chase across Cleveland.
“The state did not prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant Michael Brelo knowingly caused the deaths of Timothy Russell and Malissa Williams, because the essential element of causation was not proved for both counts,” Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Judge John P. O’Donnell said in his ruling.
The DOJ’s response was to launch another investigation into the Cleveland PD. They found that the Cleveland PD actually used force against criminals.
The DOJ isn’t even waiting for the outcome of the Freddie Gray shooting in Baltimore. It has launched another investigation, this time into the Baltimore PD.
On face value it appears that any time a black person is shot or dies the DOJ will rain down on the heads of the local police department.
Between Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake’s stupidity and Marilyn Mosby’s over-reaching grandstanding, the Baltimore PD is miserable.
The spike in crime and decrease in arrests in Baltimore since the death of Freddie Gray is the partial result of low morale among the police force, an anonymous city cop told CNN.
The 12-year veteran said of officers’ morale: “It’s in the sewers. It’s down. It’s the worst I have seen in my career.”
He said that officers have slowed their response to 911 calls. And when they do answer, they often travel in groups of three or four out of fear for their safety and of being accused of wrongdoing.
They have reason to be afraid. It’s open season on cops. Obama and Holder have cut the ribbon. Cop deaths were up 56% in 2014. Police nationwide are in a pickle. On the one hand they know that they are targets right now. Cops have been killed very recently in New York, New Orleans, Mississippi, Nebraska and New Mexico. On the other hand, cops also know that if they are forced into engaging in a firefight, the Obama DOJ Nazis will be all over them like the stink of corruption on a Clinton. Obama has consistently sided with the suspects against the police.
This is not going unnoticed by the bad guys. They had quite a holiday weekend.

In DeBlasio’s New York you’re 45% more likely to be murdered.
Murders are way up so far this year in Manhattan, The Post has learned.
Sixteen people were killed around the borough between the first of the year and Sunday. Over the same period last year, the figure was 11. That’s an increase of about 45 percent.
Shootings in the borough have also soared.
There have been 50 “shooting incidents’’ since Jan. 1, compared with 31 in the same time period in 2014 — an increase of about 38 percent. Some of these “incidents’’ involved more than one victim.
The number of shooting victims nearly doubled, from 33 to 61.
After seeing crime drop sharply in the first half of 2014, St. Louis saw a steep rise in violence in several neighborhoods as protests grew, following the shooting death of Michael Brown in nearby Ferguson by police officer Darren Wilson. By year’s end, St. Louis logged 157 homicides, the city’s highest yearly toll since 2008.
The problem has persisted this year as well: Homicides went up 6% for the first quarter of 2015 compared with the same period last year.
Police are afraid- afraid for their lives and afraid to do their jobs because they’re being attacked while the a**holes in the White House and in the state offices don’t have their backs but they do have the backs of those who need “space to destroy.”
The violence, the killings- these are the poisonous fruits of liberalism. Hate cops? Great. Enjoy living without them. Watch as the social fabric of these cities is torn asunder. America has bitten into the poisonous fruit of liberalism and now we all see the consequences.
Don’t forget to thank a liberal on your way out of town.
