Cop-Hater Kills Two Cops in Brooklyn Ambush; NY Times Obfuscates Motive

Posted on | December 21, 2014 | 187 Comments

Michelle Malkin: “Sickos on the Left have been stoking hatred against cops for months now in the wake of Ferguson and explicitly calling for their murder.” They finally got what they wanted Saturday when a cop-hater named Ismaaiyl Abdulah Brinsley shot his ex-girlfriend near Baltimore, posted anti-cop messages on social media and drove to New York where he murdered two NYPD officers in an ambush in Bedford-Stuyvesant. The cop-killer then killed himself.

The killer participated in anti-police protests and, in his social media messages, referenced both the death of Michael Brown in Ferguson and the death of Eric Garner in New York. However, Weasel Zippers points out that the New York Times is attempting to obscure Brinsley’s motive by depicting him as “random crazy.” Liberals never accept responsibility for the evil results of liberalism, because the whole point of liberalism is the evasion of personal responsibility.

    Richard Weaver said, “Ideas have consequences”, indeed they do. The forty years drumbeat of class envy and race baiting looses the demon in society. Obama and Holder and the poverty pimps are pushing for a race war and if they get it, we’ll all pay a terrible price. Dirty bastards.

    The prosecutor in the Brown case admitted he used witnesses that he knew were lying in favor of Wilson.

    Cops ambushed and killed Crawford in Ohio.

    Cops ambushed and killed Rice in Ohio.

    Brinsley ambushed and killed two cops in NYC.

    All three are murder cases.

    They want a race war.

    Think of it: The race-baiting left has the same motivation as Charles Manson.

    I guess that’s what happens when you worship the ’60s.

    This is not just about cops. Ferguson itself and Trayvon Martin were the result of a new phenomenon in social media and academia: the proliferation of active demonization and scapegoating theories about whites as an entire race of people, and a non-existent race at that. Look up the White Privilege Conference, some 15 years old now and funded by tax dollars, gov’t institutions and colleges.

    I’ve been following this in the science fiction community for some 3 years now, not only because of its startling sudden appearance but because it is a study in microcosm of how rancid sociopathic hate speech is mainstreamed into a public arena as “social justice.”

    It is not a complex mechanism or a new one: sociopathic bigots and supremacists present a reasonable sounding anti-oppression narrative through venerable and therefore credible institutions that appeal to fear and compassion until what is in essence pure hatred not only sounds noble but necessary. It requires an amount of stunning naivete in people that to be honest I never suspected adults capable of. The over-the-top racist remarks in the SF community by award-wining authors and without reproach are nothing less than amazing.

    This is a shill and a con game, and I have warned the SF community only to be laughed at myself as being a racist if not insane. Meanwhile my predictions have come true. There is blood on the hands of every social justice warrior from Jessica Valenti to Ta-Nahesi Coates to the Science Fiction Writers of America to Anita Sarkeesian to MSNBC for their incessant drum beat of non-stop hate speech and inflammatory theories against whites, men and heterosexuals. It is a recognizable ideology with a formal faux-academic language which includes “rape culture,” “white privilege” and “cis-normative” put forward in a Gods/Devils scenario. Brinsley had that ideology and its narratives mainstreamed right into him by mainstream media.

    Social Justice Warriors equals hate speech equals death because of insane theories whites are out gunning for blacks at all levels of society ranging from excluding them from literature and film to outright cold-blooded murder.

    Even if what you say is true, the implication is that not only do cops who don’t know each other share racial attitudes across nationwide municipal boundaries but then by extension so must at least a majority of whites. The more reasonable alternative is that cops nationwide are up against a criminal culture with a racial demographic spike almost unprecedented in its own gun violence or that police procedures should be improved. There is an ocean of difference between that latter and the idea a majority of 240 million Americans are yowling racists.

    People like you who present “patterns” but without proof of them are using hate speech.

    So, because people protested an injustice where officers in NYC killed a man on video, and then stood around with a blase attitude while he died on a city street, they’re now in some way responsible for the deaths of two police officers? Absurd. Im guessing Makkin would prefer people just stay silent while authorities murder people with no accountability?

    ”Obligatory *downtwinkles* for invoking as fact statements already debunked by evidence.

    Ambush/noun/ a surprise attack by people lying in wait in a concealed position.
    While both Crawford and Rice were almost certainly murdered neither was ambushed.

    The violations of the civil rights of persons carrying firearms even in states where it’s legal by statute (as opposed to constitutional by birth) is a growing problem in this country and not just when the victims are killed. This is happening all over the country. In some cases people are being ”swatted” via 911 calls. This is the area where police training and probably 911 operators are woefully under trained.
    The Tamir Rice case is particularly egregious as the officer who shot him had already been determined to be unfit for duty by another department before he’d even finished his training.

    I can think of several ways to characterize the killing of Mike Brown. The most obvious is ”justifiable homicide”, inevitable also comes to mind, execution does not. Mike Brown does not in any way belong in the same category as the two cases you mentioned in your first comment. At first I found this and your other comments in this thread inexplicable. Then this question occurred to me, are you attempting to establish the predicate for a defense based on ”disease or mental defect”?

    Liberalism is an ideal that exists in each individual liberal’s head. Thus when someone behaves in a way that deviates at all from their unique vision of liberalism, they are obviously not a liberal, thus liberalism is still good. That way of thinking means that to the individual liberal, no socialist was actually a socialist, no communist was actually a communist, no democrat was actually a democrat. Sometimes they portray themselves that way to others. Sometimes they’re close. Until they sin. Then obviously they were a capitalist, or a right winger, or whatever, no matter how ridiculous the claim.

    He can’t.

    The prosecutor was faced with people who lied, all right, but not in Wilson’s favor. They were exposed, during questioning, as lying.

    The grand jury proved the worth of the system.

    Garner died of a heart attack. Possibly brought on by the stress of his encounter with the police, but not the infamous choke hold. I am not privy to all the evidence seen by the grand jury in that case, but I am willing to bet that the video is not all the evidence they considered.

    Michelle Malkin would prefer a world where actual evidence, rather than propaganda, drove people’s opinions and actions.

    Neither was George Zimmerman. And most likely this guy never even got a good look at the cops. They were targets of opportunity.

    LIke Zimmerman, they were stand-ins. Or you can pretend this was a racially neutral killing despite the hue and cry about racist cops.

  33. Dianna Deeley
    December 21st, 2014 @ 7:13 pm

    Completely wrong.

    The first, most evidence based complaints regarding the militarization of the police came from conservative commentators, and were treated with the usual scorn by the mainstream media.

    Until a racial narrative could be adduced, the media simply did not care how many corgis were shot in the course of mistaken police raids, or military veterans were gunned down in their own homes during no knock raids. The very second a racial narrative could be created, then and only then, the media cared.

    There are numerous myths about the Eric Garner case going around and I suspect you subscribe to all of them. One noteworthy yet barely noted element of this case is that the four medical personnel were the only responders who were disciplined by their organizations.

    Fomenting murder while maintaining plausible deniability is the game of the grievance industry. And the fact that the NYT attempts to obscure the motive merely demonstrates how stupid it believes the American public is. It goes to what I said a day ago on a different thread. The NYT know the truth but publishes lies; it seeks to humiliate its readers, because if reasonable people begin making the appropriate connections, such reasonable people risk being turned into pariahs. And so they acquiesce to a narrative which is patently absurd and hate themselves for it.

    There’s no link. The first thing out of Bob McCulloch’s moth was that all evidence was being shared with the Feds. If McCulloch had falsified evidence to the grand jury he’d be risking hard federal time and Darren Wilson would have a federal indictment to defend.

    I read something like that, as well; since I have an actual job, I have not taken the time to track them down.

    I did note that the one everyone was so very excited about was edited. This led me to wonder what was left out. I assume the grand jury saw all of it, and that contributed to their finding.

    This means what exactly in this context? Malkin is blaming people who took to the streets over the obvious injustice in the Garner case for the murder of two cops. Perhaps she thinks people should just shut up, and let cops murder with out any accountability? Amazing that Christians are so for state violence, and against the concept of justice.

    [referring to various witnesses]“The best thing the criminal justice system can do is treat everyone the same,”

    The gist of the article seems to be that McCullough didn’t engage in the customary abuse of the grand jury process. All witnesses should not be treated the same nor should all witnesses’ testimony be given equal weight. It is the sworn duty of jurors to determine the credibility of witnesses. The weight given testimony is not determined by popular vote.

    The actual miscarriage of justice in the Ferguson case isn’t the ”no true bill” from the grand jury but the fact that this case was presented to the grand jury solely due to political correctness in the first place.
