I use to get angry with Greg Meriwether, but now I just pity him. He asked Mayor Broome, "What does she say to a lady that doesn't have a dog in the fight, living near Broadmoor, near the police headquarters, and just wants to go about her life?"
The mayor should tell the lady in Broadmoor the same thing she tells the lady in Banks. If we are all stakeholders in what happens in our city, we all have a "dog in the fight." Should we remind Greg that the 6 law enforcement officers where ambushed in Broadmoor, near the police headquarters, as a direct result of the national attention brought by the killing of Alton Sterling?
Let me go take a Tylenol PM!


In reply to one of the comments on her post:

FZ...It does not matter to me Greg's color, but I think black people are shocked when other blacks speak from an origin that would suggest they have no black perspective or seek to distance themselves from their black culture.
Their comments and behavior suggest to other blacks that "they are our color, but not our kind"!
Our black experience in America is different among us, but what makes us common is the struggle of our ancestry.

And here we go with the whole "my great great great great grandfather was a slave, so now every white person owes me something."

You have got to be shitting me.

Meriwether is probably the most notoriously brainfarty newsperson this town has ever had.

He once was covering a house fire where a few people died and one child got sent to the hospital in very serious condition and he said "Our sources say that two people burned up (!!!) in the house and another child on the way to the hospital is not dead yet..."

Oh yeah dude, he's a regular Willie Shakespeare.


Agree...that is a poor chioce of words. Provide the clip please.

Couple of comments from the Facebook post

It constantly amazes me how stupid people are. These people are incapable of putting together a legible sentence, much less conducting themselves civily. Good luck with that Baton Rouge.


I find it to be pretty hilarious. It's one big racist, grammatically incorrect circle jerk.

You can't take a break from race relations for a day or two?


It would be great if a certain segment of society would do this....with them, everything and I mean everything always revolves around how badly they see themselves treated because of their race!
