Steve Sailer writes<\/a>: Shooting cops is not a self-interested scheme that will thus get worse and worse after today. It\u2019s a suicide trip. It will burn out, eventually.<\/p>\n

Nonetheless, the long term consequences of what our Administration, mainstream media, and prestigious NGOS have conjured up seem fairly predictable and depressing.<\/p>\n

For example, go long on Dunkin\u2019 Donuts stock. Cops will retreat to the donut shop just like they did during the liberal Warren Court Era of the 1960s. We\u2019ve been down this path before.<\/p>\n

COMMENTS:<\/p>\n

* By only reporting the black victims the media turns 26% black victims into 100% black victims so black people think it\u2019s just them being targeted thus sparking a violent reaction.<\/p>\n

The media have blood on their hands.<\/p>\n

* I wonder if the shooter was radicalized by something he read online.<\/p>\n

MORE COMMENTS<\/a>:<\/p>\n

* Where is Lee Atwater?<\/p>\n

I suggest a pincer movement strategy<\/p>\n

First, Trump makes Hillary the Black Lives Matter candidate in the manner of Willie Horton and Dukakis.<\/p>\n

Second, like Nixon in 1968, he runs a positive campaign of \u2018all lives matter.\u2019<\/p>\n

In Springfield, Illinois, Nixon said: \u201cAmerica [now] needs to be united more than any time since Lincoln.\u201d<\/p>\n

* I\u2019m disappointed that the NYT is calling Jeronimo Yanez a \u201cwhite\u201d police officer.<\/p>\n

* Policing isn\u2019t a very dangerous job in America.<\/p>\n

\nIn 2013, out of approximately 900,000 sworn officers, just 100 died from a job-related injury. That\u2019s about 11.1 per 100,000, or a rate of 0.01%.<\/p>\n

Policing doesn\u2019t even make it into the top 10 most dangerous American professions. Logging has a fatality rate 11 times higher, at 127.8 per 100,000. Fishing: 117 per 100,000. Pilot\/flight engineer: 53.4 per 100,000. It\u2019s twice as dangerous to be a truck driver as a cop\u2014at 22.1 per 100,000.<\/p>\n

Another point to bear in mind is that not all officer fatalities are homicides. Out of the 100 deaths in 2013, 31 were shot, 11 were struck by a vehicle, 2 were stabbed, and 1 died in a \u201cbomb-related incident.\u201d Other causes of death were: aircraft accident (1), automobile accident (28), motorcycle accident (4), falling (6), drowning (2), electrocution (1), and job-related illness (13).
\n[\/quote]<\/p>\n

In America, workers experienced a workplace fatality rate of 3.3 per 100,000 (full-time workers).<\/p>\n

If we assume roughly half of cop deaths are at hands of blacks (about half of all homicides in America are by blacks), then police fatality rate (at the hands of non-black killers) is 6.7 per 100,000. In comparison, US workers (of all professions) had a fatality rate of 3.3 per 100,000.<\/p>\n

So if you were a cop handling exclusively non-black individuals, your chance of death would be about 2x that of some average American worker. Not especially dangerous at all.<\/p>\n

* Someone at work today actually said that the protest last night was a \u201cpeaceful protest\u201d until shooting broke out.<\/p>\n

I so desperately wanted to point out that lots of things were peaceful until the violence broke out. Like the St Valentine\u2019s Day Massacre and World War I.<\/p>\n

I didn\u2019t, because I\u2019m a wuss. But it still always floors me to see how well the media narrative actually works on people.<\/p>\n

* Brits have few guns. Fewer guns means fewer homicides, all else being equal.<\/p>\n

Fewer guns also means more burglaries and assaults, as well. An unarmed society is an impolite society.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
