To heck with allowing the justice system do its job with the shooting of Keith Lamont Scott or Terence Crutcher in Tulsa, OK. These mobs want instant justice and don&#8217;t care about the carnage that is left in their path&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>This mess is never going to end. If obama was a good president he would speak out condemning the police when its justified but more importantly speak to the American people to ask, no, tell the American people when a cop says to stop and put your hands up you do it! Don&#8217;t argue, try to negotiate or try your hand at being a street lawyer. Obey the orders given, don&#8217;t run, don&#8217;t fight, don&#8217;t make any quick moves that could get you shot! If you&#8217;re innocent fight the police in court run to the ACLU and obama DOJ they will welcome you!<\/p>\n<p>Police are trained to protect themselves <b>first<\/b>. When confronting a suspect they are not trained to sit and wonder &#8220;hmm is this person going for their waistband\/ pocket.. let me wait to see if they pull a weapon out to use on me&#8221;. Those of you out there with doubts, I highly recommend you take a police simulation course some cities are offering. They put you right in their shoes where split life or death decisions have to be made. The libs I&#8217;ve seen take this course have a change of heart, anyone critical of police should do the simulation.<\/p>\n<p>Police are on edge just as civilians where the Black Lives Matter crowd, DOJ and the admin are not helping so police and entrepreneurs need to come up with a solution. That said on the flip side I think police should deploy tasers first in situations that have gone fatal and didn&#8217;t have to. All police should be armed with this non-lethal device too as their next resort before going lethal.<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"197\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wxE0Bd2Ooco?rel=0\" width=\"350\"><\/iframe><iframe loading=\"lazy\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"197\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/14CUYMFSXoQ?rel=0\" width=\"350\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<p>If the free market and police don&#8217;t come up with a solution and fast a federalized police force is coming that no one will like!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8211; Police cruiser has been destroyed &#8211; 12 officers reported injured &#8211; Tear gas and flash bangs being deployed &#8220;When we start firing back, don&#8217;t ask why.&#8221; #Charlotte #KeithLamontScott pic.twitter.com\/Yx5nEvv4jL \u2014 D (@Delo_Taylor) September 21,&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":29317,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_options":[]},"categories":[630],"tags":[43196,43197,39448,658,43198,731],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/savingtherepublic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Protests-in-Charlotte-Turn-Violent-Following-Police-Shooting.png?fit=799%2C400&ssl=1","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/savingtherepublic.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29316"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/savingtherepublic.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/savingtherepublic.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/savingtherepublic.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/savingtherepublic.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=29316"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/savingtherepublic.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29316\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":29321,"href":"https:\/\/savingtherepublic.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29316\/revisions\/29321"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/savingtherepublic.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/29317"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/savingtherepublic.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29316"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/savingtherepublic.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=29316"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/savingtherepublic.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=29316"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
