CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY SEPTEMBER 25, 2020
TWO POLICE OFFICERS WERE SHOT IN LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY FOLLOWING A GRAND JURY DECISION TO CHARGE ONE OF THREE POLICE OFFICERS IN THE DEATH OF BREONNA TAYLOR. TAYLOR WAS KILLED WHEN HER LIVE-IN BOYFRIEND SHOT AT POLICE WHO WERE EXECUTING A LEGAL WARRANT TO SEARCH THE HOUSE. IT WAS NOT A NO-KNOCK WARRANT AS MUCH OF THE MEDIA HAVE SAID. THEY ANNOUNCED THEMSELVES AND WERE FIRED UPON.
KENTUCKY ATTORNEY GENERAL DANIEL CAMERON, WHO DISTINGUISHED HIMSELF WITH AN EXCELLENT SPEECH AT THE REPUBLICAN VIRTUAL CONVENTION LAST MONTH SAID HE AND THE LEGAL SYSTEM OPERATED ON FACTS, NOT FEELINGS. AS A WALL STREET JOURNAL EDITORIAL NOTED, “MR. CAMERON’S MANNER WAS CALM AND DELIBERATE, ALWAYS RETURNING TO FACTS AND THE LAW. HIS HANDLING OF A DIFFICULT TASK OUGHT TO REASSURE AMERICANS WHO WORRY ABOUT POLICE WHO USE EXCESSIVE FORCE, BUT ALSO ABOUT THE RIOTS FOLLOWING SOME POLICE SHOOTINGS AND CASES OF POLITICIZED JUSTICE.”
ONE REPORT SAID A RENTAL TRUCK WITH PREPRINTED SIGNS ROLLED UP FIFTEEN MINUTES AFTER THE GRAND JURY ANNOUNCEMENT. FURTHER PROOF THAT THESE DEMONSTRATORS ARE ORCHESTRATED. THE QUESTION IS WHO IS PAYING FOR THEM? I’M CAL THOMAS.
