Cliffs: Young hoodie wearing black man with a concealed firearm gets pulled over is polite, respectful, and gets a verbal warning. What strange alternate reality is this? Is this more common than we think and the BLM narrative is just that - a narrative?
So I was just checking the news and I saw an interesting story comes up. It’s a story about a young, black, concealed-carrying National Guard member who was stopped by two police officers and… Well, if you believe the BLM crowd and a good portion of Sherdog posters, this guy should have been lucky to leave with handcuffs on his wrists – but it didn’t quite go down that way.
“So, I’m driving to my office to turn in my weekly paperwork. A headlight is out. I see a Tucson Police Department squad vehicle turn around and follow me. I’m already preparing for the stop.
The lights go on and I pull over. The officer asks me how I’m doing, and then asks if I have any weapons.
“Yes, sir. I’m a concealed carry permit holder and my weapon is located on my right hip. My wallet is in my back-right pocket.”
The whole affair progresses and much to my shock the interaction is one of mutual respect and understanding and the guy gets off with a verbal warning and appreciation even though his National Guard card is expired. What’s more, this is in Arizona, and we know how racist people who are south of New York State are! He goes on to say this:
“I’m a black man wearing a hoodie and strapped. According to certain social movements, I shouldn’t be alive right now because the police are allegedly out to kill minorities.
Maybe…just maybe…that notion is bunk.
Maybe if you treat police officers with respect, they will do the same to you.
Police officers are people, too. By far and large, most are good people and they’re not out to get you.”

What say you War Room? There is an incredibly prominent narrative out there right now but the reality is, there are countless black people in America getting off with warnings every single day. Of course whenever something bad happens we are inundated with countless articles and histrionic screeching protests and rioting proclaiming the rampant racism and corruption of the police but is it possible that maybe, just maybe, it might be the people being pulled over giving attitude that are the problem, and not always the police? Is it just possible that the people consistently blaming the police for negative treatment should look in the mirror and they might be treated as well by the police as they treat the police?
