Conservatives are having a field day in the wake of the death of five Dallas policemen yesterday. Former Illinois Congressman and dead-beat dad Joe Walsh sent a tweet out yesterday after the sniper attack on Dallas police officers that demands a visit from the Secret Service:
“3 Dallas Cops killed, 7 wounded. This is now war. Watch out Obama. Watch out black lives matter punks. Real America is coming after you.â€
He has since deleted the tweet, but he hasn’t taken it back, not really. This was what he claimed he meant when he told Obama “real America” was coming after him:

“I wasn’t calling for violence, against Obama or anyone. Obama’s words & BLM’s deeds have gotten cops killed. Time for us to defend our cops.â€
Right. That was right after comparing Obama to “thugs” on the street.
And despite all the blame being heaped on President Obama by conservatives over the shooting, Tea Party Joe tweeted this:
He was a black guy who wanted to kill white Cops. He killed 5.
How long before the Left blames Trump? Or the tea party? Or Christians?
Smh

Well, you already blamed Obama for it, so…
Like this one, not even bothering, like Trump, to “hint” that Obama is to blame:
When Obama goes after cops it opens the door for anti cop rhetoric and action.

So let’s not blame Trump or the Tea Party or Christianity, but by all means let’s blame Obama. Deranged much? Yes. Yes he is.
And there was this one:
2 cops shot in Dallas.
Anti-cop rhetoric turns into dead cops.
Not ok.

And of course, for Walsh, who has previously put his racism on display, saying black lives matter is the same as saying police should be killed:
When will people realize the black lives matter "movement" is an anti cop objective?

And remarkably, while he demands due process for cops who gun people down for no apparent reason…
Hey all you Cop haters on the Left, have the balls to answer this question straight up: Does this MN Cop deserve due process?
Yes or no?
— Joe Walsh (@WalshFreedom) July 7, 2016
…he thinks the same is not necessary for those who kill cops:
If you kill a cop, you should get the death penalty. No questions asked.

Racist Tea Partier Joe Walsh is giving Donald Trump a run for his money where unhinged is concerned, from putting words in Obama’s mouth to actually threatening violence against him. There is a good reason – on display here – why he is no longer in Congress. Or hold any elected office ever again.
