Big girl

When does this sort of injustice stop?? I can't  give my Sons any explanation on this particular tragedy. My advice is & always will be, Please Respect Authority. I don't have anything but my opinion on this 
incident, but it seems the couple didn't do anything to provoke the Officers. Just my opinion.  Prayers for our Communities & the Officers who "Police" them.

Just does not look good when officers shoot ppl running away, lying on their backs, or seemingly sitting in a car cooperating with the cop.  I understand that each case us different, and that on the surface is subject looks as though a shooting was not necessary.  I have the utmost respect for law enforcement, but starting to sense a few are giving the whole a black eye.

Ppl are fed up, its only going to get worse sadly. Called this years ago, now look at every Summer since. 

I been saying this for years on here, I guess its starting to hammer home now to most folks. 

The Dallas shooting was ridiculous

Shame on you Tobie, this board is for talking about Hillary, Obama and benghazi

you sound like my 5 yr old when he gets in trouble and says.........did it too

the majority of cops are good cops, but when we don't do anything about the bad ones it causes problems

If she moved to touch him she probably gets shot. Glad the bullets didnt hit that lil girl in the backseat. 

Paul Ryan was a bit taken back by this. 

Is it a coincidence on this board that everytime a white cop kills someone, the cop is innocent. But when the black cop in orange killed the guy at the auto parts store the victim was innocent. Ive been disrespected by cops and I am a tax paying citizen and a hard working family man, and furthermore if the person wasn't a cop he would have been on the receiving end of a a...whoopin. I respect cops, and all other men that respect me.

So I take a look tonight and I sense the momentum has taken a shell's pace with our original subject matter. I'm beginning to wonder if some of you guys really believe what you post on here. Surprisingly none of you people are whining about the monetary cost behind this investigation...errr witch hunt. 

When it comes down to it the Pope is a man with an opinion!

This is George Will. The GOP's son and voice of reason for you people.

Now yall should be real scared now. Look at the people who support Trump. We all need to pray.

When was the last time two ex presidents refused to support their party's nominee.
And look who GW is hugging in the pic below

I agree wholeheartedly.  Why don't we hear news segments that say a white or black Christian kid killed someone?

LOL. I agree. How many white,black,Asian and Hispanic people rape women? Why are the conservative blogs focusing on Muslims as if they are the only group that commits rape.

Because in our great country, our principles of freedom were not to discriminate because of a person's religion. Granted, the founding fathers may have been thinking about Catholics and not Islam.

thats what i've been sayin about glenn beck, rush, hannity and oreilly.

Crickets!! This Trump guy is becoming an embarrassment for all Americans.

My take:
there are many factors involved in the question you posed: middle America is known as the Bible Belt for a reason.  More religious areas tend to be more conservative.  Country folks tend to be more conservative as well, and the center of the country has vast expanses of rural areas.  Both coasts have many big cities. Young people gravitate towards big cities, and younger people tend to be more liberal.  Minorities gravitate to big cities, as do homosexuals, both of which are generally liberal.  Also, people who are not heavily involved in politics tend to let a small handful of political issues dictate their party affiliation, and their location will often dictate which issues they key on.  Gun control issues will keep country folks going to the polls to vote GOP, as guns are often a part of their daily lives.  Gay rights are a bigger deal to people in metropolitan areas, as they'll generally have more gay friends and acquaintances, which will motivate them to vote democrat.  Big cities will also have larger low-income populations, meaning theyll vote democrat due to government assistance programs they benefit from.

Every now and then for the comedy of it, I like to tune in to hannity on the radio, anytime someone gets the best of him, he hangs up.

Are you kidding me? I won't even make that argument if you don't already know.
