Two Cops Murdered in Mississippi Traffic Stop -National Media Ignores Story Since It Doesn’t Fit Racist Police Brutality Narrative.
Dan Calabrese / Canada Free Press
Al Sharpton won’t be heading to Mississippi, and for that I’m sure all of Mississippi can take some comfort. Geraldo Rivera won’t be showing up either, nor can we expect burning drug stores and video of one brave mother whooping her son for acting like a moron.
But two innocent police officers who were just trying to make a routine traffic stop are dead. The murders occurred on Sunday, and four suspects have already been arrested. Now the usual media pattern for stories like this is tell you the race of everyone involved, but that assumes they cover the story at all of course. I think it’s a racist load of crap to do that, but I will tell you that the racial makeup of the principles here pretty much guarantees the media won’t touch this story with a 10-foot pole, as it holds out no potential for causing a race riot – just the thing they love.
All we have are two fine people dead. Here’s a video from Next Media that explains what happened:
More from Breitbart:
Lt. Jon Traxler, a Hattiesburg Police Department spokesman, identified the officers who died as 34-year-old Benjamin Deen and 25-year-old Liquori Tate. Local reports identified Deen as a past department “Officer of the Year,” and Tate was a newcomer to the force who Strain said was a 2014 graduate of the law enforcement academy.
“All I know right now is that there was a traffic stop and someone started shooting at them and both of the officers were struck,” Traxler said.
The officers bodies were taken to a medical examiner’s office in Jackson with autopsies pending, Strain said.
After the shooting, law enforcement agents swarmed the area. Many emergency vehicles, their lights flashing, could be seen and police initial asked nearby residents to shelter indoors while they sought suspects.
The fact that there have now been four people arrested suggests to me that this was not some random situation where a person being stopped by the police suddenly opened fire – whether out of panic or anger. There was something far more organized and sinister, perhaps a bigger crime being perpetrated or covered up, that led this group or part of this group to want these officers dead.
