I suppose it is if you believe that justice is truly blind and that there are no racial injustices ever, but otherwise it's mostly interesting for the sheer number and creative use of qualifiers to leave the impression of stating a fact without actually stating the fact. That and the wildly...

Nope. It's almost inevitable. If you are a pestering mosquito. you're eventually going to get swatted. If you attack Pearl Harbor, you'll get what's coming to you in the form of an atomic bomb. If you launch Internet attacks against Sony Pictures, your entire Internet mysteriously goes down. If...

Brian, BTW, is a recruiter at Load One. He's not just any ol' random Brian.

Sharpton never said the dialog. It was a dozen or two bad examples among the protesters. It was unfortunate and everything realistic and reasonable should have been done to weed them out. That doesn't include selectively blaming someone who didn't advocate or promote the cop killings, especially...

I dunno. I'm against Common Core, too. It's nonsense. For starters, the misnamed “Common Core State Standards” are not state standards at all. They're national standards, created by Bill Gates-funded consultants for the National Governors Association. They were designed, in part, to circumvent...

Thank you for your comments. Your comments are important to us. Do you have any that are on-topic, though?

I'm not sure why tracking traffic patterns and overall movement would be a concern. The system in NY, called Midtown in Motion, includes 100 microwave sensors, 32 traffic video cameras and E-ZPass readers at 23 intersections to measure traffic volumes, congestion and record vehicle travel times...

The embargo accomplished all it was gonna accomplish by about 1972. Since then, the only thing it's accomplished is keeping McDonald's out of Cuba, and keeping the good Cuban cigars out of the US, and most of the good Cuban baseball players out of MLB.

I don't think there is any question that blacks are more targeted and more readily suspected of something or another by cops than are whites. The stats show it, the overwhelming anecdotal evidence supports it, and even cops have admitted it. I thinks it's a lot worse than a lot of whites...

No I'm not in denial. The issue isn't about the percentage of black killed, it's the fact that unarmed black people get killed at all by cops. You are apparently saying that because it's only 1%, then it's either an acceptable number, or that it's a small enough number not to be concerned with...

That's not how those stats work. Without realizing it, what you just said was, black cops shoot 92% of the black motorists they stop, and white cops shoot 86% of the white motorists that they stop.

He probably won't say never mind. If you're white you'll get arrested. If you're black you'll just get shot.

It's the same in trucking as it is in any other facet of life. But as a trucker sitting at a truck stop, the likelihood of you (assuming you are black) being pegged as dangerous, a suspect in something or another, or up to no good, is lower than if you were walking down the street, because it's...

Actually it is. Whether their fed up-ness is justified or not doesn't matter, the reality is they're fed up, and that's why. Because it's a diversion that has exactly zero to do with white cops killing unarmed black people over things that white people aren't killed over. Those who preach the...

I don't know about feeding the "need," but it certainly feeds the "want" and "desire." One possible solution is in the Louisville video above. The police changed their behavior, "They don't kill no more, they just stop."

When you say telling it like it is, do you mean someone is actually saying that people, blacks especially, are fed up with it being "open season on black people" and that a cop's badge is the equivalent of a hunting license? Because that's how it is. Everything else is just political spin on a...

It's all public record.

By the same token, it is that same deference, respect and appreciation that allows prosecutors and grand juries to give cops the overwhelming benefit of the doubt in cases where such benefit is not warranted or deserved. And when encounters are handled unprofessionally, and otherwise good cops...

The shooter, Ismaaiyl Brinsley, wrote on an Instagram account: "I'm putting wings on pigs today. They take 1 of ours, let's take 2 of theirs," officials said. He used the hashtags #Shootthepolice, #RIPErivGardner, #RIPMikeBrown. Incidentally, this is the kind of thing that tick people off...
