| 0:00.0 | Even as President Obama claims that his anti-police policies have not increased risk to police officer around the nation, new stats revealed yesterday show that's just not the case. |
| 0:11.9 | According to Obama's own Justice Department, his DOJ, quote, surprise assault, that's what they're calling them, ambush assault on police, skyrocketed 25% in the period 2008 to 2013 over the 10-year |
| 0:24.8 | period preceding Obama's administration. Ronald Davis is the director of community-oriented |
| 0:29.7 | policing at the Justice Department, and he told the L.A. Times, quote, in an era of strained |
| 0:35.0 | community relations and struggles with police legitimacy, violence against police is of particular concern. |
| 0:41.3 | Yeah, you would think. |
| 0:43.0 | And just yesterday, the head of the FBI admitted that cell phone footage targeting cops had created an upswing in violence against the cops. |
| 0:50.5 | The White House, of course, quickly said this wasn't the case because why would it make people attack cops if there are all sorts of videos that are targeting cops around? |

| 1:20.7 | in areas with high crime, hanging out with the people and living in the communities. This has always |
| 1:24.6 | been the leftist ideal for policing. They just have to be part of the community. They can't be outsiders. |

| 1:40.8 | So, here's what the DOJ actually wrote. |
| 1:43.4 | Quote, it is not within the realm of any |
| 1:45.5 | plausible theory. The community-oriented policing is a contributing factor to violence against |
| 1:50.4 | the police. It's just not plausible. It doesn't matter what the statistics say. It doesn't matter |
