Unarmed Black Kid Shot By Police.
Man: One, he moved.
Two, thug.
Three, I saw a picture of him on Facebook smoking weed.
Armed militant shot while reaching for actual gun.
Man: The great Satan has delivered us a martyr!!
LAVOY
What’s really disgusting is that this toon isn’t even an exaggeration. And I was just reading an article this morning about a man who threw a “bomb-like-device”, charged the police while wielding a sword, and was shot – with non-lethal foam balls. He’s white.
The Malheur national Wildlife Refuge occupation ending in a firefight which led to arrests and Lavoy Finicum being shot dead. Sounds like he was looking to be shot by the Feds and got his way.Meanwhile black kids are being gunned down by the police – they have no weapons, they haven’t threatened the police, or the United States of America (their skin color is not a threat!) Being black and being in the wrong place is now a death sentence – The police are judge jury and executioner for black teens. They are very careful not to upset white terrorists.
Lavoy had it in mind that he was just going to reach in and ‘present his pistol to the sheriff butt first, like they do in those westerns’ but somehow the sheriff misinterpreted his movements.
BTW: the Mormons have denounced the Bundy’s actions and religious claims apply to all Mormons. Hmm, just as Muslims have denounced “radical Islamic terrorists”, around the world, but oddly, the press in the US doesn’t very often post their protestations against violence and radical terrorism.
Hmm, but folks like Dear in Colorado Springs, or other radical Christians who kill, don’t seem to require denials except to say well, of course they just need mental health care (that those same conservative Christians refuse to pay for).
Threatening police officers with guns is bad for your health. And it seems that the majority of these “freedom fighters” are actually convicted felons prohibited from owning guns. And as many said about the kid who died in Ferguson,“if he had followed the officer’s instructions he’d still be alive”. Remember that?

Moron, not martyr. He got exactly what he was asking for as “blue tarp man”.

Apparently taking a gun to a peaceful protest is worse than taking a knife to a gunfight. Oh well, live and learn. Or not.

Pity the whole band of Terrorists weren’t “martyred”; America’s homegrown ISIS!

It’s the way people like Lavoy think.
What a moron.

Does anyone really believe what the FBI says after Waco and Ruby Ridge?
