I contacted St Elizabeth, OLOL and BR General about donating plasma/platelets, and they all said they either don't have an immediate need or aren't set up for donors on a Sunday.

This world is going to shite over hate. For something as small as skin color and what you believe in.

Considering most cops are normal people and only a limited amount are exposed to any serious tactical training, its not really a surprise.

But then if you give them training, people complain about the militarization of police and they get all whiny and shite.

Its a fine line, a bunch of my family and wife are Leo's and I cringe at their training.


IMO we need the police to either be demilitarized or militarized. None of this half-arse bullshite.

Let's equip them, actually train them, and hold them fricking accountable for their mistakes. Strict ROEs. And a heavy hand for all of the frick ups.

Cops love to congregate and hangout at Bquicks during patrol.. I live very close to the one on Perkins and frequent it near daily and at certain times there are upwards of 7-8 cops there.. Which sets up perfectly for the scene that seems to be unfolding here

I can report that the one shooter that has died is a black African American.


So one shooter down?

I'm reading that at least one more is at large.

Why jump to conclusions?


Because even the dumbest criminal would not try to pull off a robbery/drive by a block from Police Headquarters. AND anyone and everyone that has ever been to a B-Quik/Benny's knows that there are at least 2 police cars there at all times.

maybe from the BLM perspective. Everyone else has hate because of unwarranted shite like shooting innocent cops on a Sunday morning.

BLM is very similar to Muslim hate clerics. They scream "frick the police" or "kill the infidels," then they distance as soon as bad shite happens.

It's coordinated. Politicians need it.

Poor black folks are the pawns of big government. Stop voting for more government.

It is a favorite coffee stop for them.

Tara, Broadmor, Hammond Aire.....those are safe neighborhoods. Actually they are pretty much filled to the rafters with middle aged and older WASPS and some younger families with kids.

That part of Airline is not dangerous.

I was hearing fireworks yesterday (live a few blocks away from Hooper). Might have just been that and a bad report.

how is this any different than the rhetoric in this thread or in threads like it?

How is an angry mob protesting in a huge group walking down public streets different than message board posters?

That's a serious question you're looking for an answer on because you don't know the answer?
