Cops fear violence against violent thugs. You can’t make this shit up.
Cops Fear Violence Against Flash Mobs
UPPER DARBY, Pa. – As police in Upper Darby, Pa., search for more young people involved in last week’s flash mob, more adults are thinking about arming themselves with guns.
People are talking about how afraid they are of being caught in the path one of these flash mobs while they’re out minding their own business, and they want to be ready.
Law enforcement officials say it’s a nightmare in the making because ordinary, private citizens are getting gun permits.
“We have people now that are fearful and carrying guns because of children. How sad is that?” Upper Darby police Captain George Rhoades said.
He said it’s all legal.

Rhoades says with that many people “carrying” and the violent actions of these flash mobs, the worst is bound to happen.
No actually the best is bound to happen. It might deter these flash mobs from flashing again.
There’s an object lesson in all this.
Capt. Rhoades probably leads a decent moral life in private and probably the same in public. (I’ll say that, then we’ll soon find out that the FBI is investigating him for something. For the meantime, presume he’s straight as an arrow). So much so that all that, combined with the proper skin color, gets him into a leadership position in this Upper Darby, Penn.’s Police Department. Since he’s a cop, his duty is to enforce the city’s laws, the state’s laws, and (for the most part) the Federal government’s laws. Yet, when the rubber hits the road, he is opposed to white people using their legal rights to self defense against wild gangs of black thugs for one reason and one reason only: Because he is also black.
The object lesson? A black is a black is a black is a black is a black. Keep that in mind, those of you who might harbor sympathies for Allen West and Herman Cain. Make any one of them President, or give the former any measure of power in Congress other than being a regular Congressman, and they’ll do just like this Capt. Rhoades did.
As an aside, Pennsylvania’s Governor just signed a bunch of laws making self-defense easier, the “Castle Doctrine” bill.

“Everybody’s got a gun permit. Everybody’s got a cell phone. Depends upon which one you wanna pull out,” he said.
Yeah, your cell phone is a really good weapon against a rampaging mob of hateful blacks. Besides, if the cops come, and they see you recording their efforts to quell the mob, they’ll want to seize your cell phone. The war on photography, as the Instapundit calls it.
