…I can’t finish the headline because I can’t figure out the PC rules that apply.
If it’s ok for President Obama to say it, then why isn’t it ok for CBS (or anyone else) to transcribe it ?

We first heard about this last week amid chatter in social media, and thanks to a link from Nivico it is now apparently confirmed – Tamir Rice’s mom, Samaria Rice, has fired Benjamin Crump as the family attorney in Cleveland.
From a local CLEVELAND article:
[…] Before the rally, Samaria Rice told Northeast Ohio Media Group that she is no longer being represented by attorneys Benjamin Crump and Walter Madison. She dropped Crump and Madison last week and retained New York lawyers Jonathan Abady and Earl Ward, her third pair of lawyers since Tamir was killed.
“I wanted to make sure Tamir’s interests were put first,” she said. “I want the best representation for Tamir and myself. I needed to be able to sleep comfortably at night without wondering if someone was making decisions without my knowledge.”
This is one of those stories with multiple layers and angles for consideration embedded.
Summary: Injured, innocuous (not black), man wraps hand in towel and waves down a cop for help. LAPD Cop gets out of vehicle shouting “put down the gun” (man never had gun) apparently anticipating a handgun under the towel. Confused man unable to comply (man never had gun); without compliance cop draws weapon and shoots man four times, once in the head. Now the man is really, really, injured – as the police roll him over in his blood (witness video) and handcuff him while waiting for ambulance. Rushed to the hospital in critical condition – original hand injury now irrelevant to his bullet to head injury.
NBC Summary Here – Another Link HERE
Meet The Press aired a discussion story featuring New York prison inmates discussing the regret they carry for using guns. The actual piece is very powerful, but almost immediately the politically correct crowd jumped into action because the prison inmates were black.
It appears from the lead-in, and the following conversation, the NBC panel was already hyper-sensitive and fraught with precursory guilt about airing the video. Watch (it might not be available long):
The Hill has a breakdown of the cultural Marxism that followed – the aftermath HERE.

New York City two nights ago: The Police Become Punching Bags !!

The latest example:
CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCIV) — A Confederate monument at White Point Gardens was vandalized with graffiti.
The graffiti was discovered Sunday morning as thousands gathered downtown to honor the victims killed at Emanuel AME Church.
The words ‘Black Lives Matter’ and ‘This was the problem #racist’ is spray painted on the base. The vandals also called out Mayor Joe Riley and Governor Nikki Haley scrawling “Riley and Haley -Why defend this evil -This the root of our evil.”
A couple of local men moved quickly to cover the base with a tarp but it was just as quickly uncovered by other passers-by.
A lively debate soon followed, attracting Barry Tighe from the organization Code Pink. He wrote up his own sign that read “Take down racist statues” and it was followed by a local protester’s sign that read “All lives matter #CharlestonUnited.” (more…)

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – Authorities are investigating after they say seven people were shot Saturday night in West Philadelphia. This happened just before 10 p.m. on the 4100 block of Ogden Street in the Mantua section of the city.
Block party chaos; 7 shot and critically injured in West Philadelphia; youngest victim is 2. http://t.co/1dT2bEwIVr

Authorities say two children — ages two and ten, and five adults — ages 15-25 — were shot during a picnic. The two-year-old was shot in the neck. (more…)
(UK Independent) […] More than 30 pedestrians, including three children, were hurt at several locations during the rampage and 10 victims were in hospital with serious injuries. One patient was in a critical condition on Saturday afternoon.
The driver, identified by police as a 26-year-old Austrian man of Bosnian heritage, has been arrested. He works as a professional driver and is married with two children.
Police are not currently investigating terrorism as a motive and the suspect is believed to be suffering from mental illness.
Witnesses recounted how the man drove his vehicle into crowds apparently at random, sending pedestrians and cyclists crashing into the windscreen and rolling over the bonnet.
The New York Times and the Daily Mail are both reporting the South Carolina mass murderer Dylann Roof wrote a 2,500 word manifesto on a website called TheLastRhodesian.com. There are also pictures on the website reported to show Dylann Root burning and spitting on U.S. flags.
I have visited the site and read his nonsense, however I have not verified the pictures are there, nor viewed the content of those pictures, because it requires a zip.file download to view them and I’m not downloading sketchy content based on the NYT or Daily Mail.
We’ll take their word for it, or if you want to see it yourself you can here.
What immediately jumps out, noted in both pictures and words, is that Dylann Roof has an almost identical set of racial values as Valdosta State University flag burner and similarly self-proclaimed racist, Eric Sheppard Jr.
Root and Sheppard are the mirror image of each other. One is white, the other is black, but their ideology about race is as identical as it is diametrically opposite.
Eric Sheppard Jr. also produced a manifesto last month, and a video diatribe, which was sent to, and published by, the Valdosta Daily Times when Sheppard was on the run from law enforcement.
Previously the Valdosta Daily Times printed the full Sheppard Manifesto.
In order to compare views from both Roof and Sheppard for yourself, and not read the manifesto through the prism of the presenting media ideology describing it, here is Dylan Roof’s Manifesto in full – you can compare Sheppard to Roof. (more…)
A judge had given Mosby until June 26 to respond to three defense motions. In addition to the motion to remove her and her office from the case, defense attorneys have asked that the case be moved away from Baltimore and that it be dismissed because of “prosecutorial misconduct.” (link)
Baltimore’s Special State Attorney Marilyn J. Mosby’s office has responded to defense motion that she should be removed from prosecuting the Baltimore Six. (Full pdf motion below)
An astoundingly petulant, and ideologically-worded, rebuttal motion claiming the accused police officers and their attorneys distort facts in the hope “vitriol will trump logic.”
Notably absent, actually glaringly absent, from the motion is anything relating to a “rough ride” despite numerous references to the construct of negligence in reference to the transport of Freddie Gray.
This excerpt screams petulance -directed at a media audience- and is seriously lacking in any foundation toward the substance of the actual recusal motion itself: (more…)
