Black Lives Matter leader who ran through police tape on live TV and grabbed a Confederate flag was shot in the thigh on his bike in an attempted robbery and died from blood loss after carrying on cycling for six blocks
The headline is misleading. I thought d’Baha was the robber, not the victim.
So let's say later we discover he was shot by Deqavious Johnson. I wonder how much of a commotion you're going to get from BLM then? Because in their mind his death doesn't count. All that matters is who shot him.

A well-known Black Lives Matter leader who was slain in New Orleans earlier this month is believed to have been the victim of an attempted robbery, police have revealed.
Muhiyidin d’Baha, 32, was found shot in the early morning hours of February 6 while riding his bicycle on Bienville Street, with his bicycle at the end of a six-block trail of blood, the NOLA Times-Picayune reported.

Police are asking anyone with information to contact the NOPD Police Department.
Well-known Black Lives Matter leader Muhiyidin d’Baha, 32, who was slain in New Orleans earlier this month is now believed to have been the victim of an attempted robbery
d'Baha, whose legal last name was Moye, achieved notoriety for jumping through caution tape set up by police to take a Confederate flag away from a protester on live television at the College of Charleston in February 2017.
Though the nation took notice of d'Baha then, his family and loved ones, who referred to him simply as 'Moye' or 'Moya,' said his work within the Black Lives Matter movement ran much deeper than that isolated incident.
d'Baha referred to his activism as 'putting in work,' his girlfriend, Erica Veal, told the NOLA Times-Picayune at the time of his death.

Thomas Dixon, a North Charleston pastor who often worked side by side in activism with d'Baha, who practiced the religion of d'Baha 'I, echoed what a great loss this was to their community.'
'They'll never know it. Whether it was accidental or intentional, that person, at least in this realm, will never know what they took away from the world,' Dixon said of d'Baha's killer.
d'Baha was in New Orleans to celebrate Mardi Gras, and connect with local musicians
The percussionist, guitarist, flutist, pianist and marimba player, who is said to have loved drums the most, had arrived to the city on February 2, and four days later, he was dead
Camille Weaver, his niece who was responsible for creating an account to raise money for the transport of his body and a memorial service, said the family learned of his passing at around 9.30 am the next day, through a phone call from an official 'saying that he had died due to excessive blood loss.'
The updated information about the suspected robbery was revealed by the NOPD on Wednesday.
NOPD Homicide Detective Brett Mathes is in charge of the investigation into d'Baha's death, which remains ongoing at this time.
NOPD is offering a cash reward of up to $5,000 for anyone who can provide information leading to an arrest and indictment in this case.

Trump wants his personal pilot to lead FAA, drug dealers to be executed: reports
So before you find Trump's take below, let's say excessively stringent, bear in mind Trump has to round up all the drug dealers and various other criminals Barry released from prison during his 8-year occupation. These were just a few of the headlines:
...and the list goes on and on.
Once we get the full story on the Clinton-financed Trump dossier with a whole host of co-conspirators he may be booked for a reservation instead of just visiting.
------------------------------------
President Donald Trump speaks at the White House on Friday.
President Donald Trump is pushing for his personal pilot to become the new head of the Federal Aviation Administration, and has talked of the appeal of executing drug dealers, according to a pair of reports by Axios on Sunday.
John Dunkin, who flew Trump on his private Boeing 757 during the presidential campaign, is on the FAA short list, Axios reported. The FAA chairman oversees a $16 billion annual budget and is in charge of all U.S. civil aviation.
A senior administration official told Axios that Dunkin had an impressive interview for the FAA job, and has prior managerial and administrative experience. “He’s on the list because he’s the president’s pilot, but if he gets the job it won’t be because he’s the president’s pilot,” the source said, according to Axios.
In a separate report, Axios cited multiple sources who said Trump has expressed admiration at how countries such as Singapore and China execute drug dealers.
“He often jokes about killing drug dealers... He’ll say, ‘You know the Chinese and Filipinos don’t have a drug problem. They just kill them,’” Axios quoted a source as saying.
In the Philippines, more than 12,000 drug dealers and users have been killed by police and death squads in the past two years under President Rodrigo Duterte, according to Human Rights Watch.
According to the sources, Trump has said drug dealers are as bad as serial killers, and he would love to change U.S. law to have them executed.
While that is unlikely to happen, Axios reported Trump may push for new mandatory-minimum sentences for drug traffickers and take inspiration from parts of Singapore’s “zero-tolerance” policy, such as increased anti-drug education in schools.

Delta and United end their discounts for NRA members as the number of companies to cut ties with the gun lobby rises to 14
Looks like the MSM is trying to pin the Parkland shooting on the NRA and now they have ginned up more support. After all, someone has to be at fault...just not the killer right? Why should the NRA take it on the chin? How are they responsible for what a deranged killer did who sent up red flags galore before the shooting? Cruz had the cops at his home 39 times since 2010!!! A good starting point on the gun control debate is---Why do people allow other people who are close to them and insane give them access to guns?
The common thread---Insanity
Five million NRA members will now be buying their insurance elsewhere, driving rental cars from a different company, and of course, their are plenty of other hotels to stay at.
Suppose a guy who's a duck hunter and a member of Ducks Unlimited goes into a bar and shoots three people dead. Should we now boycott Ducks Unlimited?

What do you think the odds are any of these lunatics actually belonged to the NRA?

A cap and shirt are displayed at the booth for the National Rifle Association (NRA) at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) at National Harbor, Md., Feb. 23, 2018. (Reuters)
The National Rifle Association defended itself in no uncertain terms Saturday after numerous companies sought to cut ties with the gun lobby following the nation's latest mass shooting.
Let it be absolutely clear. The loss of a discount will neither scare nor distract one single NRA member from our mission to stand and defend the individual freedoms that have always made America the greatest nation in the world. #StandandFight #NRA #2A https://t.co/4kzNq9GDLq— NRA (@NRA) February 25, 2018
The statement came two days after Wayne LaPierre, the NRA’s executive vice president, delivered a fiery speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Maryland.
The NRA, which represents about 5 million members, has faced public outcry following a mass shooting Feb. 14 in Parkland, Fla., that killed 17 people. That outcry has mostly taken the form of calls for gun control legislation and for boycotts of companies that partner with the NRA on discount offers and other consumer inducements.
On Saturday, United and Delta Airlines joined the list of companies separating themselves from the gun group. Previous companies to do so include MetLife, Symantec and rental car companies Hertz, Budget, Avis and Enterprise.
Those moves prompted Saturday's response from the NRA, which asserted that those corporations had “decided to punish NRA membership in a shameful display of political and civic cowardice.”
The NRA's statement argued that other factors besides gun ownership were to blame for events like the Parkland massacre.
How true:
How true:
“The law-abiding members of the NRA had nothing at all to do with the failure of that school’s security preparedness, the failure of America’s mental health system, the failure of the National Instant Check System or the cruel failures of both federal and local law enforcement,” its statement said.
15 brands have now ended their relationship with the NRA:
1. MetLife
2. Symantec
3. BestWestern
4. Wyndham
5. Alamo
6. NationalPro
7. Enterprise
8. FNBOmaha
9. Hertz
10. Budget
11. Avis
12. Norton online
13. North-American
14. SimpliSafe
15. Chubb
