Opinion

Huntsville Police called out for ‘inexcusable’ behavior



Dear Mayor (Tommy) Battle and Chief (Mark) McMurray,
I am writing to object to the inexcusable way protesters were treated Monday evening at the courthouse square.
I am an older white female pediatrician. I attended the protest yesterday to add my support to BlackLivesMatter, but also because I noticed that on Saturday, no medical personnel were stationed near the event. I was concerned someone might have heat stroke or be stressed and have a heart attack, so I brought ice to the organizers and had some medical supplies including aspirin and my CPR mask.




quote:

I packed some eye wash and bandages in case some of those fringe patriot groups got in there and rioted. I thought that wasn’t very likely, but I wanted to be prepared.
I decided to stay until it was obviously over, again because there was no EMS presence. First of all, the posture of the police standing there was very confrontational. The body language was over the top. And one policeman was up there smacking gum, with his mouth open! Very disrespectful! I am sure I sound my age, but things like that are important. People were there protesting a murder and systemic racism. To stand up there smacking gum—wow.



It just goes on...

frick this world.

There is no way these writers are actually real people, right? This is clearly some journalist who works for the paper writing a "sure to cause discussion" piece disguised a letter from the general public.

I know we have one baw around here who lives in probably the perfect place for you. It's not Roger though. Just can't remember his username here, but he definitely lives in the middle of nowhere Alaska.

I'd be there tomorrow if I could convince the wife to go.
