Couldn't they have set a curfew after the first night of looting? It took them a week to come up with curfew as the solution. I coulda told them that

He is scapegoating looters and rioters - who turned around and bit him 2 hours later.

I get why you'd think that's a slam, being a County cop and all.


LOLOLOLOLOLOL The world would be a lot worse of a place if fat asses like me were cops but I digress. But yes, even a non cop can understand that blaming a riot and looting on cops is perhaps a slam.

quote:

I hope he gets shot for it. Amirite?


Wow - I understand being intellectually challenged is frustrating for you but perhaps you should leave so the adults can have a conversation.

They want justice. That's all they say. Sounds like they want revenge not justice. What will they do when or if the cop is found innocent on all accounts. That day will start this mess all over again.

Do you live in St. Louis? No one I talked to thought Johnson came in wanting to slam the previous approach. I didn't hear any of that. So I'm curious, other than the quote from last night, where you got that impression.

I think he had to do the first because of the county whiners. The second is the right move, IMO.

I don't take it to be that binary.


Sounds like a you problem.

If you're the object of some of that criticism, I get why it would piss you off.


yes having the new cop in charge saying the old cops caused the rioting and looting is a little frustrating.

quote:

Y'all got payback last night.


Payback? Watching peoples properties and livelihood get destroyed is not what I call 'payback'. And what facking payback is there is a horrible tragedy like this.

You may think it is a game.

quote:

Lots of "hahaha" and "I told you so" texts going back and forth I'm sure.


yes, nothing tickles my fancy like destruction and violence - you know me so well.

quote:

And then come in here and dress it up as righteous indignation.


For your sake I am going to assume you are 12. If as an American, you do not have righteous indignation about the past week, no matter what 'side' you are on, then you don't have a pulse. This has been a horrific week for the people of that town and the country. It is a terrible shame no matter how you slice it. Any thoughts of 'payback' or 'scorekeeping' or 'haha' are beyond offensive but again I understand who I am dealing with.

Again, the grown ups are trying to have a conversation - we can send you a cookie later.

They aren't enforcing laws against looting, I doubt they'll enforce a curfew.
