New Black Panther Party establishes a chapter in Baton Rouge -- July 16, 2016.

Al Sharpton: #BlackLivesMatter is not anti-cop -- July 16, 2016. Al Sharpton is a nominee for the 2016 Geico Rock Award.

From September, 2015, almost a year ago.

Baton Rouge cops ambushed; 3 killed; 7+ injured -- July 17, 2016.

One wonders if President Obama will be attending memorial services for cops killed under these circumstances.  My hunch is that the minimum threshold is six cops killed in any one event if he plans to attend. With five cops killed in Dallas it would have been hard for him not to go. But now that that box has been checked, a new, higher bar has been set.

The "War on Cops" officially becomes part of Obama's Legacy.

Flashback: if "they" bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun." Yes, he actually said that.
That’s exactly what Barack Obama said he would do to counter Republican attacks “If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun,” Obama said at a Philadelphia fundraiser Friday night. “Because from what I understand folks in Philly like a good brawl. I’ve seen Eagles fans.”
No better than Boehner.
