How Protesters Actually Helped the Dallas Police


In fact, Black Lives Matter protesters had been working with local police from the early stages of planning the march, and the demonstration was completely peaceful. In one photo, a white police officer and a black police officer are seen posing with a black protester, all of whom are smiling. Additionally, the organizers of Dallas’ Black Lives Matter march issued a public statement, saying the group “does not condone violence against any human being, and we condemn anyone who wants to commit violence.”

but I haven't seen that manifesto against BLM. He was angry all right; maybe getting to the root of why he was so angry would help. VA healthcare? I'm so disheartened by all the suicides and now this. Something's not right.

That generally lifts information from other news outlets that do actual reporting.

They want the killing to stop, and they know that violence against police puts their friends and families at greater risk. Police forces full of fearful and angry cops mourning the loss of even unknown and geographically distant peers are bound to be more on edge that usual. And, we all know that they just have to be afraid for the public and judicial system to forgive violence and murder directed towards them.
