[quote=FlyerInHi]Not any more disturbing than the young gay guy who was dragged to death in Wyoming or the black people who were mowed over by a pickup truck.
Maybe the Muslims in England have more cause for grievances. Minorities in Europe live in pretty bad ghettos.
Interesting that NSR brings up integration. The situation in Europe is bad.
We have a more vibrant economy in America and immigrants can more easily thrive in commerce and make a living in their own communities.
We also have more generous naturalization policies and once a person is a citizen, he’s the same as a natural born citizen. Europe also has show-me-your-ID laws that are discriminatory and harassing.[/quote]
This is no justification for murder.

Fuck that. Issue sidearms and let the games begin.[/quote]
Usually I am against the death penalty due to the economics involved with it but in such a clear cut situation these guys should be dragged in front of a magistrate and hung within 24 hours upon video review.
And I’m with Allan on this one. I am not sure these guys would have had this kind of brass if guns were more apart of the social landscape. Meaning if every cop was armed would these guys still had the balls (and by extension the public)?
As for the people… Shame on them.

I think hanging is a better death than hacking. It is more civilized. I think this is going to be a long summer full or social unrest.
ZeitgeistParticipantSo much for multiculturalism.
ZeitgeistParticipantDefinitely more than just that term being used loosely by All the President’s Men. Loosely is definitely an understatement for the butchering of the truth at the alter of politics.
ZeitgeistParticipantThanks for the link Rich and Happy Thanksgiving to you. It is full of useful information.

She stated: ‘Now I don’t know if a lot of you heard this, but the CIA annex had actually had taken a couple of Libya militia members prisoner. And they think that the attack on the consulate was an effort to try to get these prisoners back. So that’s still being vetted.’”
ZeitgeistParticipantI had heard things about Bert and Ernie. We found out that Big Bird is rich, but this is news about Elmo.

I was worrying about where you would use your EBT card if they close the one by you.

Even McDonald’s is suffering in the downturn that is now being reported: “NEW YORK (AP) — McDonald’s says a key sales figure fell in October, first monthly drop in nearly a decade for the world’s biggest hamburger chain. The company says global revenue at restaurants open at least 13 months fell 1.8% for the month. The last time it dropped was in 2003.”

Not my problem either.

DIY or Professional Installation #754122ZeitgeistParticipant[quote=spdrun]Write it up, post it to some local blogs along with officers’ names. Send it to some media outlets as well — “troubleshooters” love this kind of story.[/quote]
I also recommend a letter to the Mayor and cc your City Councilman and cc the Chief.
I watch Turko files and people try for months to get the city to perform necessary repairs and Turko usually gets satisfaction within days. He really knows what buttons to push. I would also consider calling him.
ZeitgeistParticipantIt looks like you will get your theory(ies) tested in the next couple of years. There are a lot of people that think those that do not want to pay these rates will find a more tax friendly State. There is also the theory that the rich will find ways to “lower” their income by changing their investments. Therefore, I think the taxes will mainly impact the middle class. If they do not like it then they can change their vote the next time around.
It is going to be interesting to watch this social experiment we call California. I do not think the schools will improve because I expect the State to find a way to siphon the money to where they want it. I also think the teachers will not improve because of more money any more than the police dept. improves with more money. Both just spend it on more administrators. All the COPPS money that was spent during the Clinton years was mostly pissed away, including upper level employees taking the cars and computers that were supposed to go to the working level law enforcement employees. It was just one big money grab with no oversight from the Feds.
Call my distrustful, but that is what I saw happen and I do not have much hope for this being different because that is always what happens with OPM- other people’s money. Your mileage may vary…
ZeitgeistParticipantCAR, flu and AFF. You all are 100% right. One big gravy train. All I can say is God save the Country.
