Good Golly, I'm Defending Sarah Palin

The Daily Beast website headline reads: Sarah Palin used today’s Iran Deal rally as an opportunity to refer to #BlackLivesMatter as “the dogs.”

How drama queen of them. What Palin said was: “Since our president won’t say it, since he still hasn’t called off the dogs, we’ll say it! Police officers and first responders all across this great land, we got your back! We salute you! Thank you, police officers!”

Now while I am troubled by Palin’s amnesia as to the propensity for some police officers to be prone to shooting blacks far more than whites, the assertion by The Daily Beast was more than a bit of a stretch. Using the phrase “calling off the dogs” is not calling some people “dogs.”

(Gotta call BS no matter the political stripe….)
