There has been some media criticism of the fact that Pat Smith, whose son Sean was killed at Benghazi, spoke at the Republican National Convention<\/a>. Democrats in particular criticized the fact that she was allowed to speak. Well, the Democrats have upped the ante.<\/p>\n

The Washington Times<\/a> is reporting today that relatives of victims of police shootings have been invited to speak at the Democrat Convention<\/a>. Wow. Of course the Democrats at the convention expect all the benefits of police protection as they conduct their convention.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

John McNesby, president of the Fraternal Order of Police<\/a> Lodge 5, said the union was \u201cshocked and saddened\u201d by the planned choice of speakers at the convention, which opens Monday in Philadelphia.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe Fraternal Order of Police is insulted and will not soon forget that the Democratic Party<\/a> and Hillary Clinton<\/a> 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,\u201d Mr. McNesby said in a statement.<\/strong><\/p>\n

He said it\u2019s \u201csad that to win an election Mrs. Clinton<\/a> 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<\/a>, you should be ashamed of yourself, if that is possible.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Clinton campaign has scheduled former President Bill Clinton to speak Tuesday night with members of Mothers of the Movement, a group that includes relatives of black men killed by police such as Eric Garner of New York and Michael Brown of Ferguson, Missouri<\/a>. Former Philadelphia Police<\/a> Commissioner Charles Ramsey, who said the nation is a \u201cpowder keg\u201d over the police-involved shootings and assassinations of officers, is also scheduled to speak.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I would like to remind anyone reading the above paragraphs about the details of the death of Michael Brown. Witness who said that he was surrendering have admitted to lying in their original statements.<\/p>\n

The New York Daily News<\/a> posted the following\u00a0 information from the medical examiner’s report:<\/p>\n

Ferguson Police Officer<\/a> Darren WIlson’s account of the confrontation in which Michael Brown was fatally shot has reportedly been leaked, with an independent medical examiner’s report backing up his version of events.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Brown had marijuana in his system and was shot at close range in the hand, backing up claims by a police officer that that there was a violent struggle between the Ferguson, Mo. teen and the cop, an independent medical examiner told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The report supports Wilson’s account<\/a>, given after he shot and killed the 18-year-old on Aug. 9. Witnesses claimed the teen was surrendering when the cop fired. Police maintained Wilson only used his gun after Brown tried to take it \u2013 a life-and-death fight inside a police SUV.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Democrats are continuing their war on police. It will be interesting to see if this wins them support.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
