And then he lied about the actions of his superior, saying the guy yelled at him and threatened him. Turned out had a recording proving he was lying. That's when he was finally fired. Then became police chief of a neighboring town.

So viewed, the record reveals that in July 1997, Roorda attempted to try to "cover" for another police officer by filing a report that contained false statements as to what happened during a suspect's apprehension and arrest.   As a result of this false report, all charges against the defendant involved were dropped,…

So, let me get this straight: Missori cops want to punish black men for putting their hands up and saying "Don't shoot." Hrm.

I feel like playing football in your racist, God-forsaken city is punishment enough, SLPOA

you know what I find offensive? 18 year olds getting shot and prosecutors intentionally throwing the case

I lost my son to suicide in 1998. Still haunts me to think he was giving me hints of his depression and I was too busy with work to realize. We need to do a better job of speaking to our kids.

This should have been one of the best weeks of Kosta Karageorge's life. Fifth year senior, final Senior Tackle, final Michigan game.

Yes. These should always be shared:

I can't imagine the pain and sadness that his friends and family are experiencing right now.

Fucking horrible. Praying for family.

Could be. Still, I was really happy that they appeared when they did. I was definitely in over my head. Unfortunately, you don't always realise that until things have escalated.

Sounds like those Marines were arseholes themselves, not willing to help until they felt it was one of "their" women.

This is so awful on so many levels. That these young men's masculinity is so fragile that they 1) feel they have to harass women to prove themselves, 2) can't accept when someone steps in and calls them out on their aggression and behaviour and 3) can't accept that they were doing something wrong, and attack the…

Women not being responsible for the actions of men is filed under Society's Mental Gymnastics. When it comes to power & money, men (according to them) should be in power bc they are supposedly so very rational & even keeled. But, once women are in the picture- total loss of control! This shit will not change until…

Society wants women to courageously fight back against their attackers and be brutalized doing so because it fuels the media machine that is powered by sexualizing violence against women. They'd rather have a dead martyr than a living victim who might say things that hurt their feelings, because that martyr no longer…

Women can't win. If we stay silent about our harassment/abuse, people will blame us for not saying anything. If we DON'T stay silent, we're still condemned or worse, killed. When are people finally going to understand that WE are not responsible for the actions of men? This man was so insulted that a woman would…

It is horrible because she did the right thing. She stood up for those girls and one of those guys had to "put her in her place."

I know I won't forget about her. She is a hero.

It was horrible enough they were harassing teens in a bathroom and nobody was doing shit to help, but then when a brave woman helps, she gets killed.

Black & Tan is delicious! It was my go-to beer for several years, before the microbrews sprouted everywhere like yeasty fungi.
