The only thing that offends me that racist are creating a story without hearing the statement from the defendant.  The police chief attacked black lives matter, without explaining why he was politicizing this tragedy.  You post your usual racist nonsense to try to demean those who have been abused by police.  Sorry, I do not know any American that thinks cold blooded murder of a police officer is a good thing.  However, to jump to conclusions that legitimate peaceful protest over black males being killed by police, and arguing that those lives do matter has inappropriately been dragged into this horrible tragedy....using the blood of the fallen for political purposes.....shameful.

Maybe I am missing something, but has this defendant made any statement or confession as to what his intent was?  Until then I think extrapolating cause and effect should be left to soothsayers.........and you are no soothsayer.

There are malevolent interlopers trying their best to hijack their justified protest.

I watched his speech and he did not attack black lives matter, he said why does it have to be black lives, why can't it also be cops lives or better yet all life's matter.

Of course, cop's lives matter.

You can clearly see that by the reaction to this cop's death.

A massive manhunt, sparing no cost, was launched to apprehend his killer.

His killer has already been arraigned and will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

On the other hand ...

Was his body left on the pavement to bake on the hot asphalt uncovered for hours?

Did the killer attempt to exonerate himself by planting evidence next to the body?

Have the authorities taken it upon themselves to delve into the victim's background and selectively leak information that would reflect badly on his character?

Will this incident be adjudicated in a court of law, or by a crooked independent prosecutor with ties to the killer?

Is the killer incarcerated or put on paid administrative leave?

The differing reactions to specific types of killings seem to indicate some lives matter more than others.

It's not so much the deaths, it's the official reaction to those deaths that indicate which lives actually matter to the authorities.

All I'm hearing from that is "cop's lives don't matter, thug's lives do"

The entire group was chanting "pigs in a blanket... fry em like bacon".

The real risk to black lives are young black males.
