| Hildebeest invites families of blacks killed by police to speak at convention |
| 2016-07-22 |
| [Wash Times] Philadelphia’s police union is blasting Hillary Clinton for inviting relatives of victims of police shootings to speak at the Democratic National Convention next week, but failing to include relatives of slain police officers. John McNesby, president of the Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 5, said the union was "shocked and saddened" by the planned choice of speakers at the convention, which opens Monday in Philadelphia. "The Fraternal Order of Police is insulted and will not soon forget that the Democratic Party and Hillary Clinton are excluding the widows and other family members of police officers killed in the line of duty who were victims of explicit and not implied racism," Mr. McNesby said in a statement. He said it’s "sad that to win an election Mrs. Clinton must pander to the interests of people who do not know all the facts, while the men and women they seek to destroy are outside protecting the political institutions of this country. "Mrs. Clinton, you should be ashamed of yourself, if that is possible." |

| #14 I went to see that d00d twice, seriously. Closed for repair. I suspect the old boy is carted off to the deep freeze during the fierce Russian Summer. |

| #11 Inviting this "demographic" to speak at the the DNC is an extension of 0bean's efforts to divide and sow chaos in the US. I would like to say that his latest rhetoric suggests he's sort of backing down from this stance, but given his megalomania, he's not the kind to learn anything in less than about six years, if ever. So maybe he's having her pick up the mantle. |

| #10 Wow - I did not believe this was true. I just checked the DNC list of speakers and it looks like Tuesday is Bubba Clinton and BLM day at the convention. Baton Rouge Police Officer Montrell Jackson will be laid to rest on Monday...and Clinton works to reignite the BLM madness on Tuesday. And what pizzes me off is that somewhere, right now, a police officer is going about his business on the beat or at home with his family, not knowing that he will be shot in the back and his/her life taken later this week by a racist BLM thug...because of this agitprop. Clinton is complicit. |

| #6 At that young age she was extremely anti-military, hence why Benghazi went down like it did. Obama and Hillary are identical in that mindset. |

| #5 Hillary Clinton is now moving into tertitory that is very dangerous territory. Hillary Clinton is now seizing on the evil movement of cop killing. During her time in law school she corresponded with Saul Alinsky, author of "Rules for Radicals". He offered her a job but she turned it down because because she did not think he was radical enough. She was interning for a leftist law firm that represented the Black Panthers. She now sees the anti cop movement as the vehicle for tearing down society via violence that radicals like her have been looking for, for decades. |
