There is war ongoing. The war is being carried out on cops, with a certain class of cops in particular.
On Tuesday Ma’Khia Bryant, a 16 year old girl was fatally shot by a cop as she was attempting to stab another girl. The video can be seen here. No one was interested in the facts. No one.
Certainly not the media and not activists. This from attorney Ben Crump:
Unarmed? Uh, no. It gets worse.
The White House again put its finger on the scales of Justice. Wacki Jen Psaki:
“She was a child. We’re thinking of her friends and family in the communities that are hurting and grieving her loss. We know that police violence disproportionately impacts black and Latino people in communities and that black women and girls, like black men and boys, experience higher rates of police violence.”
Never mind that the cop saved another young black woman. Those present at the shooting were undetered by that fact:
“This is the racist ass b—h that shot this poor f–king girl,” a bystander is heard shouting, according to the 13-second clip. “He f–king shot this girl, talking about how she tried to stab him, the f–k. That’s somebody’s f–king daughter b—h.”
Also:
“Are you f—ing serious?” the man, who was not identified, is heard screaming. “You shot my baby. Are you f—ing kidding me? Are you f—ing serious?”
“She had a knife,” Reardon is heard saying. “She just went at her.”
“She’s a f—ing kid, man,” the man responds. “Man, are you stupid? A f—ing kid?”
Protests are already springing up and riots are likely.
LeBron James, the world’s most oppressed man, identified the cop who shot Bryant and tweeted out an incitement to violence against the officer.
“YOU’RE NEXT”
The mayor of Chicago wants police to ask permission before engaging in a foot chase. Attorney General Merrick Garland promised to give the Minneapolis Police Department an enema. Nancy Pelosi supports Maxine Waters’ call for violence against the police.
Anti-police activist Bree Newsome tweeted this out:
Teenagers have been having fights including fights involving knives for eons. We do not need police to address these situations by showing up to the scene & using a weapon against one of the teenagers. Y’all need help. I mean that sincerely.

She might be on to something.
Being a cop is difficult under the best of circumstances. Now it’s nearly unbearable. Police actions are under a magnifying glass and all actions are accompanied by a guilty verdict no matter what. There is one solid way to reform policing.
Don’t respond.
Don’t interfere with knife fights. Don’t interfere with gun fights. Don’t interfere with riots (think Portland). Stop responding to any 911 calls in the cities and counties whose leaders call for defunding the police. Wait until it’s calm and the smoke has settled, as long as it takes. Then show up and take reports.
It’s what they want. Give it to them.
DrJohn has been a health care professional for more than 40 years. In addition to clinical practice he has done extensive research and has published widely with over 70 original articles and abstracts in the peer-reviewed literature. DrJohn is well known in his field and has lectured on every continent except for Antarctica. He has been married to the same wonderful lady for over 45 years and has three kids- two sons, both of whom are attorneys and one daughter who is in the field of education.
DrJohn was brought up with the concept that one can do well if one is prepared to work hard but nothing in life is guaranteed.
Except for liberals being foolish.
The Left is busy stereotyping blacks as all preferring knife attacks over being protected from getting knifed.
Have we heard from the girl who would have been stabbed, possibly killed had police not acted?
I do believe we have not.
All sorts of black voices, but not hers.
Remember back in Jan 2020 when Sen Tim Scott offered a bill full of police reform ideas?
He even offered Dems the option of adjusting his bill.
But Dems wanted none of police reform.
They were busy stereotyping Republicans as racists.
Already an exodus from police work is happening.
Police are moving from blue states to red states.
Police are retiring early and even quitting.
Private security, such as wealthy and powerful Dems can afford, is the new growth industry.
The Democrats blocked Scott’s bill with the “racist” filibuster. They didn’t want Republicans to be viewed as proposing and supporting police reform. Plus, they wanted to “reform” police by destroying it.
“We do not need police to address these situations by showing up to the scene & using a weapon against one of the teenagers.”
I’m okay with that. Police should only patrol and respond to calls in neighborhoods where they’re wanted. Cities could lower their police budgets that way, also. Win-win!
Problem is, most blacks want more police in their neighborhoods, not less. Because of “youths” like this girl.
Most blacks are good, decent people. We need to stop catering to those who aren’t.
In 100% agreement. They can start with the upscale all white neighborhoods where the white limo libs live since they are the ones fanning the flames along with the race baiters in BLM. It’ll be interesting to see what happens when the truckers refuse to deliver food etc. to the local stores because of a lack of police presence. The ensuing food riots would be most entertaining.
Police should post notices in neighborhoods like where Pelosi, Schumer, AOC, Omar, Bush, Pressley, James, Tlaib, DeBlasio, Cuomo and any other police-hating leftist, that the police will not be responding to any calls from those neighborhood, so those who live there will feel safe.
Agreed. No police, no fire runs, no EMT’s. Seal them off, and let them run their own lives by themselves.
Blacks reject the legitimacy of all American institutions, and many are in open armed revolt. There is no appeasing them, and no controlling them. We are lucky the worst of them are self-segregated. The problem is how to put the rest of them, the Obamas et al., back into the ghetto.
Not all blacks but, sadly, they will be the first to suffer the worst. Of course, no Democrats care about that.
Not all blacks, but they will be the first to suffer from lack of protection.
Last night NBC News edited this story to imply that there was no knife.
They had to edit both the 911 call as well as the footage.

No wonder so many people honestly think police go around shooting to death unarmed blacks.
85% of very liberal,
77% of liberal,
66% of moderate,
53% of conservative and
54% of very conservative
people polled believe police killed more than 100 unarmed blacks in 2019.
The real number is 27.

Accurate knowledge would go a long way to put black deaths in perspective.
Black-on-black criminal deaths are in the tens of thousands for 2019.
But blm won’t focus on that and neither will their handmaidens in media.
There is but one reason to suppress such facts and lie about the truth; the left WANTS racial division, hate and violence. So does anyone that denies it and anyone that will not condemn it.
Why put your life and career on the line. It’s a no win situation, let them fight in out in the thug neighborhoods, that’s a win for law abiding Americans.
These guys do it because they are dedicated to protecting society. The left screws them for it; all THEY are dedicated to is making society more dangerous and exploiting the tragedies.
I kinda gotta say that the young officer did – from a certain perspective – screw up.
1) The prospective victim was not in immediate jeopardy. The fact is wounds from a short bladed knife are seldom lethal. Preemptively calling for assistance as well as for an ambulance would seem to have been the prudent course of action.
2) SCOTUS has firmly established that no LEO has any legal duty to intervene. The officer would have been entirely correct in standing down.
3) The officer was not himself personally in jeopardy of life or limb. While deadly force is equally legally justified in defense of a 3rd party as in defense of oneself, the officer was not AT THE TIME HE DISCHARGED HIS WEAPON in jeopardy. The prudent thing would have been to retreat to beyond 7 yards (i.e. the kill zone for a knife), draw his sidearm and wait until the situation stabilized.
Both the assailant and the potential victim were Black. That meant that there was no way the officer would be right. In such an instance, seeing as how all the persons involved – the officer aside – were Black the prudent thing to do was to maintain an alert but otherwise non-threatening presence. Blacks WILL BE Blacks. There is no getting around that fact. The prudent course of action for LEOs – of any color – from now is not to intervene jn any situation involving Blacks. Period.
The cop had to make a quick decision. To his credit, he chose to protect an innocent girl. No time to weigh options or calculate the odds.
And that knife looks to be 6 or 8 inches in blade length. She was going to do some damage if not stopped. Had the cop not stopped the stabbing, he would have been just has vilified, and he may have had to shoot the knife-wielding thug anyway. Stepping away would have appeared cowardly.
The cop was screwed as soon as he rolled up. His only way out was to not be there.
Seriously?
“Blacks will be Blacks”?
So who cares if they kill each other?
The soft bigotry of low expectations…
What about justice for all?
Equal protection under the law?
Judging by the content of their character, rather than the color of their skin?
Um…I hope LeBron watches this video.
That was a cop doing his job. Period.
James could not possibly care less that the cop did the only thing he could have done. Spreading racial division and hatred is all that matters.

Janiah Pate, 13 stabbed Nyaira Givens also 13, in the neck with a “pocketknife.”
Officers responded to the scene to find Givens suffering from a stab wound to the right side of her neck. The teenager was rushed to Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center, where she later died.
Well, at least no police killed either of these black kids.
That would have been an unimaginable tragedy.
So, will BLM, LeBron James, Joy Reid, Varlarie Jarrett, Jan Psaki, Joe Biden or any of the “Squad” weigh in on how good it was that two blacks just fought while ONE of them had a knife?
Waiting…..
Crickets.
“Well, at least no police killed either of these black kids.”
Something considered by Democrats as a true loss; a tragedy that cannot be politically exploited.
The liberals still want police, they just want them limited to enforcing mask mandates and confiscating legal firearms from conservatives…
And arresting political opposition.
This “defund the police” campaign is designed to replace local police with a federal police force. A police state. Then, the central government can direct local police to take out their political opponents.
We’ve all accurately predicted that this selfish, cynical, anti-American stupidity will hurt minorities in poverty first, and it has. Though this cop did what he had to do, this is an example of what would be happening WITHOUT police. The other girl would be dead, stabbed to death. Just the day before, a 13 year old stabbed another 13 year old to death. Every crime category is spiking. This is a crisis of the left’s device and they are ready with the “help”.
Yes, the only solution is for cops to stop responding. This cop, simply because he did his job, was faced with a no-win situation, unless lightning suddenly struck the knife-wielding thug. If he protects the victim, he is damned. If he hesitates and the other girl is stabbed, he is damned for not protecting her. His only option: don’t go.
The woman that made the call was desperate for law enforcement help. In the future, those in desperate need of law enforcement help will plainly and simply suffer the consequences of the left’s promotion of destroying law enforcement which they have characterized as racist and murderous. I truly pity those who don’t have the resources to defend and protect themselves. They will feel the threat, danger and harm much sooner and more intensely than the rest of us.
This is what the Democrats have to offer. Well, we told you so.
I’ve been planning that for some time and you will see it soon
segregation seems to be the only way we could possibly avoid this problem
