[QUOTE]Originally posted by zarahan- aka Enrique Cardova: [QB] Agreed, and condolences likewise. This incident seems to only help the right wing, who can now start beating the "law and order" drum. A bunch of cops will appear at the Republican convention, Trump will "stand up for our officers", unlike the "weak" Democrats and so on. And killing these officers barely makes a dent in a well armed, well-organized paramilitary formation like the Dallas PD, who, like other police depts nationwide, have had fulsome access to heavy military hardware, including advanced tech like the robot used in Dallas. As a "gesture" some find it thrilling, but ultimately its just a gesture, like the romanticized but ineffectual Black Panther confrontations with well armed police, that usually saw mostly Panthers dead. David Hilliard, top ex Panther official, once attended a party given by white leftists in the late 1960s and while some made some supportive noises, he found that most didn't give a damn about the young men being gunned down, and sought to "distance" themselves instead. When trouble hit, the affluent whites could comfortably afford lawyers, bail, white network support etc but the brothas languished at the mercy of those targeting them. He watched the whites as they slurped down on hors d'oeuvres and wine while the brothas moldered in dank "safe" houses, awaiting the next police raid as they hunkered down. Meanwhile informers and provocateurs within the ranks stoked the fires, set up the brothas, and ran rampant. Furthermore the police are a hardened target - the next set of shootings will not come off with such a high body count. Drills, new weapons including improved body armor and drones will be deployed. And aside from whatever damage an incident accomplishes all that will have been accomplished is a stalemate against a strong, repressive force, that will have suffered minimal or moderate damage at best- basically diminishing returns. The usual reply is that such incidents "raise consciousness." But we already have plenty of "consciousness" WITHOUT any murders. And without allowing right wingers to profit by whipping up the faithful into paroxysms "agin" the "black menace." [/QB][/QUOTE]
