During a discussion on the Dallas Police headquarters shooting this afternoon, CNN anchor Fredricka Whitfield appears to have really misspoken in referring to the gunman’s actions as “courageous and brave.”
Whitfield was speaking to CNN legal analyst Philip Holloway when she said this:
“It was very courageous and brave, if not crazy as well, to open fire on the police headquarters, and now you have this scene, this standoff. So you believe these are the hallmarks of more than one person’s involvement.”

Can you just FEEL the nuttiness taking over? It’s in the zeitgeist. Since Obama came into office the sheer craziness of the Left is becoming ascendant in the culture. From the white women who decided to become black…to Bruce Jenner…to CNN commentators. Things are getting nutty. But cheer up…there’s bound to be a backlash.
This was a ”standoff” in the same way the end of the Hollywood shootout was one.
Police were waiting until the shooter had bled out and was dead before moving in with paramedics and rescue.
This was suicide by cop, plain and simple.
Now, if that CNN dope wants to say suicide is brave and/or courageous, she can.
There are always a few people who want other people to kill themselves.
Looks like she’s been told to apologize.

As the left continues to demonize the police, the police will increasingly respond slower or not at all to citizens calls. Personally I can’t blame them as entire communities seem to be in this gotcha mode with their cell phone cameras hoping to get their 15 minutes of fame on the evening news…
If you aren’t armed and able to protect your own family you may want to seriously reconsider because there will come a time when the police no longer get involved when you place your call for help…
