Civic Ignorance - Or, It's All About How You Feel

Have you noticed how we no longer hear about Black Lives Matter; the group that claimed police were out to kill African-Americans across the country because they felt police were prejudice against them? Do you recall how the mainstream media fed the country with the false narrative that Michael Brown - and the policeman who ordered Michael and his friend to get off the street - had held his arms up in the air, but was shot anyway in the back because some witness claimed that's what happened? Yet, the forensic evidence revealed otherwise. How about the way Pres. Obama and A.G. Eric Holder responded to this situation? Did their actions and the complicit news media reporting on it give the public a false sense of what actually happened? And then, there was the incredibly biased situation regarding the five Dallas police officers who were killed by the crazed shooter with a rifle.

So far this year, just 45 days in 2018, a total of 12 police officers have been killed by gunfire in the line of duty. Above, is Officer Bauer, the latest to be killed.

Now, let's fast forward to today and examine an example of how that inaccurate, biased news and the attitude fostered by both "leaders" at the top of our nation's government has resulted in treatment of our law enforcement community today. This incident is recorded in this report about officer Andrew Ward, who was meeting his wife for a dinner date while on duty at a Tennessee Outback Steakhouse. What ensued provides us with our perfect example of how ignorant our younger - and some older - people are about letting their bias override the company policy for which they work, get in the way. Fortunately, there is a positive outcome to this story. Here is a different source regarding this story. 

What you personally do with it is, of course, strictly up to you.
