The horrible person of the day award goes to Dallas County Commissioner John Wiley Price for disrespecting police across America when he refused to honor Dallas police who were murdered by a crazy Black Lives Matter enthusiast who opened fired on cops.
Price basically said the cops brought it on themselves.
Here are the men who died for no reason while serving their city and their country, doing one of the hardest jobs in America.
Price should be removed from his job and shunned by the public for his lame views on police and thinking that any cop has ever wanted to be shot at, let alone murdered.
You cannot blame police every time some crazy person goes on a shooting rampage. No one ever asks for that to happen and no one ever wants that to happen.
On the contrary, if those particular officers were known to beat people for no reason, or rape women behind dumpsters, or do horrible things to the public – then I would agree with John Wiley Price. Anyone who acts like that, regardless of their job, should be dealt with one way or another. However, it does NOT seem like these particular officers who were shot to death were anything like that. Anyone who takes the job of police officer is granted immediate respect and admiration. They deal with the worst of the worst people in the world and police are all amazing people for what they do (except that fat cop who let himself go after passing the test – get back in shape, you whale).
Here’s John Wiley Price in the news.
Blue Lives Matter reported:
Dallas County Commissioner John Wiley Price voted to oppose a resolution to honor murdered police officers, blaming police officers for the assassinations.
The Wednesday vote was supposed to be largely ceremonial, but gained unexpected opposition as Commissioner John Wiley Price argued that law enforcement should not be honored, according to Fox4.
“I think it’s interesting in this country how you again try to frame the narrative with regards to other people who’ve lost their life at the hands of law enforcement,” Price said. “No life is more important than any other life.”
Price said that ‘unjust police violence’ was the cause of the terrorist attacks against law enforcement, according to Fox4.
Sheriff Lupe Valdez argued that all officers killed in the line of duty deserve to be honored.
“It’s not that they died, because everybody dies. It’s how they died,” she said. “We need to continue as people in blue to make a difference so that both sides, both of us hurt when somebody dies — it’s not officers go home safely, it’s let’s all go home safely.”
Since being the only commissioner to vote against the resolution, John Wiley Price has refused to back down from his statements.
“Until we start to recognize all life, then no life is more important than any other life,” Price said.
Others have been voicing their disagreement with Price.
In April, prosecutors unsuccessfully prosecuted John Wiley Price, accusing him of using his public office to illegally take over $1 million. The jury deadlocked in the decision on four of the charges. Afterwards, prosecutors dropped the case.
