The #1 Holiday Discussion Topic Of 2014: False Racism And Supporting Cops
Far and away the #1 topic people wanted to discuss in my personal holiday circles this year was the subject of false racism and subsequent cop bashing that has taken place this past year. This discussion cut across ideological lines and came out overwhelmingly in support of cops and against the race baiting politics of Barack Obama and his ilk. Some who for years indicated unwavering support for all things Obama were finally indicating they had had more than enough of how the current president and others like Al Sharpton seemed so determined to tear America apart.
To them I said more than once, “It’s about damn time.”
The primary motivation for these people’s political awakening were the recent deaths of two New York police officers by a troubled black man clearly influenced by the anti-cop rhetoric and subsequent environment created by the Obama administration, Al Sharpton, and others within the Mainstream Media.
Several who now claim to support the police and disagree with the racial divide being created in this country were then stunned to learn (after my telling them) that the two police officers were themselves minorities. They were then further shocked to learn that the majority of men and women serving in the NYPD were minority as well. Within the NYPD, white officers are by far the lesser number.
This then led to another teachable moment of explaining how the media will form a story by focusing on one aspect and ignoring the other. It shows crowds of people marching in protest against the “racist” New York police, but ignores the fact that it is a police department made up primarily of minority officers.
