For the first six years of Bush's presidency (2001-2006), the total number of cops intentionally murdered was 426. This doesn't count 911-related deaths, which would obviously skew Bush's number higher. During the first six years of Obama's presidency, the total number of cops intentionally murdered was 382. That's a 10 percent drop.
In the seventh year of Bush's presidency, there were 77 cop killings, by our definition. So far this year, Obama's seventh in office, there have been 35. Statistically speaking, we're on pace for a total of 52 in 2015, which would be the lowest total in this century.

Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke told Fox News yesterday, "President Obama has breathed life into this ugly movement," meaning Black Lives Matter and the "war on cops" Clarke says the president is at least partly responsible for.HuskyInAZ said:You are one sick mother fucker.

Yes and the narrative is placing blame in the wrong place. So let's stop trying to point fingers and blame each other and actually do something about it.HuskyInAZ said:8 police officers have been killed in the past 9 days. STFU already.

You could start with the media that's creating a false narrative and riling people up over bullshit and falsehoods. Not to mention we have some crazy people in this country, half of which reside on this board.dnc said:

It's sad really. The people that are pointing fingers, are really the ones making it worse. It's just that they don't see it that way. -
