From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"If you wonder why and when giant corporations got the power to reign supreme over us, here’s the story."
From Cracking the Code:
"Thom Hartmann ought to be bronzed. His new book sets off from the same high plane as the last and offers explicit tools and how-to advice that will allow you to see, hear, and feel propaganda when it's directed at you and use the same techniques to refute it. His book would make a deaf-mute a better communicator. I want him on my reading table every day, and if you try one of his books, so will you."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Never one to shy away from the truth, Thom Hartmann’s collected works are inspiring, wise, and compelling. His work lights the way to a better America."
Think of what you are saying. Since a consequence of protesting police violence may be the heightened chance of acts of violence being committed against police, then People shouldn’t protest police violence.
I know part of you talking heads jobs is to help the Democrats keep the People in line, but I’m not sure such thinking as you indicated above would make for good social engineering. The killer committed the murders in response to the deaths of Eric and Michael, not because of the protests.
Violence begets violence. Protests are in response to violence. My condolences to the families of the two police officers who were slain.
It's odd that neither of the slain police officers were white. Might they just be an attemt to stir the pot of unrest even further than it has been of late?
No, people shouldn't stop protesting because of the two cops having been shot. However, they should be aware of this and show a little sensitivty towards the police. They are obviously---and rightly so---going to be on edge.
I agree with Ms. Necker in that neither police officer was white. Perhaps given the light and angle at which the shooter saw the two officers, they appeared white to him. Then again, he not have cared and just wanted to murder a couple of cops. Who knows what path logic takes through a twisted mind?
