There are officers who help people who moments before were yelling F Tha Police and wanting to fight with them. It's part of the job. Again, unless you feel officers should only protect those who share their political viewpoints.

Sorry. Maybe Yurt can explain the difference between 'political viewpoints', and 'political power'. I just taught him the difference.

Not at all, considering that there were over 11,000 Islamic terror attacks in 2015 and Obama didn't even acknowledge that they happened, much less, send his condolences.

So obama ran opposed to gay marriage in 2008. So it would have been very ironically if a gay secret service took a bullet for him.

Would that have been good or do you only want people in congress shot?

MSNBC’s “AM Joy” host Joy Reid is receiving criticism for attacking the politics of House majority whip Steve Scalise, who is still in the hospital after a gunman opened fired last week on the GOP Congressional baseball team.

“It’s a delicate thing because, obviously everybody is wishing the congressman well and hoping that he recovers. But Steve Scalise has a history that we’ve all been forced to sort of ignore on race,” Reid said over the weekend.

Reid continued: “He did come to leadership after some controversy over attending a White nationalists event, which he says he didn’t know what it was. Because he is in jeopardy and everyone is pulling for him, are we required in a moral sense to put that aside?”


While Reid was making these comments, an on-screen graphic showed Scalise’s record highlighting his more polarizing decisions, such as sponsoring a bill to define marriage as between a man and a women.

The MSNBC host also sent out a tweet that said,

On Monday, Fox News media guru Howie Kurtz was still upset about Reid’s comments, calling her “appalling.”

“While Steve Scalise remains in a hospital bed fighting for his life, she’s attacking him because she doesn’t like his politics,” Kurtz said. “For Joy Reid to tweet that Scalise was attacked by a white man… why bring race into it?”

The Hill media columnist Joe Concha made a prediction about the situation, “Here’s how the Joy Reid thing unfolds: She goes viral for profoundly reckless/myopic Scalise tweet. Blowback ensues. Forced apology follows.”

Obama was asked his OPINION on gay marriage in '08. He didn't sign any anti gay legislation. Quite the contrary. Do you see the difference?

Obama evolved. Maybe Scalise will do the same, now that he actually knows his security detail is gay?

Why are you having so much trouble discerning the difference between opinions, and legislative actions?

Your position is that it's acceptable to shoot legislators who sign laws that you disagree with?

One.

My living relatives are comprised of three lawyers, one brain surgeon, one PhD nuclear physicist, one MBA, one neuroscientist professor, a psychology professor, a CPA, a writer/photographer/poet/philanthropist, and two moms, one with a college degree in history and one without. Oh, I forgot an uncle on my mom's side who owns a bank.

Now up and coming are a whole shitload of nieces and nephews who are too green to eval.

Harvard is but one.

Anyway, your point included that Harvard formerly lacked a history of institutional nepotism. Good luck with that.

But that isn't the point, is it. You want to list all your Harvard connections. Am I wrong. Do proceed, boat person.

Why do I doubt all of this coming from a confirmed liar about being a lawyer? Seriously PackD. Give it up. If it was not for your taxpayer paid internet service, you would not even be able to afford being on.

"Would have"? Did it happen, idiot? Nope.
