To use his own words, he knew what he was signing up for. To be a member of that 1%.

I was really hoping he would resign. Listening to that presser hurt. Kelly has no sympathy from me.
As a black Iraq veteran, co-sign. I’m so sick of mofos turning military personnel into a new form of fascist idolatry. In addition to wanting Kelly to rot in the lowest level of Hell, I’d like to kick the ass of any black male military or vet that would take Kelly’s side over Congresswoman Wilson.
My grandfathers & two uncles fought in WWII. My Grandfather was the first black quatermaster in The Navy. My Uncle got a Purple Heart for his service in WWII. My other grandfather also received the Gold Cross. I am saying this to say no one needs to say shit to me about the military & what it stands for, because I am…
I think they’re trying literally everything they can to reframe an openly White Supremacist President’s disdain for anyone but His People.
he was trying to protect his daughter because she had run away from home numerous times and was living in a “crime-ridden neighborhood.”
“Only a white American (or maybe a rich Asian) could illegally find someone’s address, stalk them, murder them, and drive away and get 3 mistrials. And only be convicted of manslaughter eventually.”
We don’t need a single other person who “cringes” at people like this. We need a ton of people who actually DOES SOMETHING ABOUT people like this. All of your type-A cops do nothing about the type-B cops. That’s the entire problem. That’s what allows the type-B cops to stay exactly where they are.
There’s no real law being enforced by this guy, outside the law of power through violence. I’m surprised his actions haven’t been found to constitute some charge related to the obvious conflict of interest/abuse of public office for private gain rule, given his inability to keep straight whether he’s acting as a…
I believe that cops fall into two basic categories:
I commented similarly in another thread, but it’s even worse than that. The current military philosophy is all about winning hearts and minds. These folks don’t even seem to try that. They have a less humanizing philosophy toward the people they’re supposed to be serving than our actual military forces do toward the…
“But the city of St. Louis stands behind his tactics. They say he is its most qualified leader and that he “plays an integral role in civil disobedience training.”
Sigh.
Cops believe they’re active participants in an war zone. They think the streets are as dangerous for them as a patrol unit in Kabul.
Until we stop letting them view their jobs that way, they’re going to continue to see themselves as some brave vanguard in a Manichean, disordered world. It won’t matter how many cases…
How original - a fat white man in the middle of America with a chip on his shoulder for no reason other than his own failures in life. Heart disease hurry up baby!
This guy sounds like he’s looked back at other civil disobedience management (e.g. Selma and Kent State) and decided that the authorities were just not prepared with the latest technologies that can be used to silence protests. Seeing that he’s ex-military, I think we need to take a look at the large number of…
“civil disobedience training” Sounds like he should be the last person training other officers. Morons like this are the reason BLM and mass protests exist in the first place. The police are supposed to be peacekeeping agents, not a paramilitary organization at war with US citizens.
A couple of years ago, I used to write for a late night talk show..RZA was a guest..and it was about the ‘n-word’. He said he didn’t think anything was wrong w/his white friends using it around him. This is why I always believed Azealia.
Then I’ve done my job.
He has the witnesses and knows what their testimony will be but it won’t be a “smoking gun” until they say it under oath.
“Will have” is litigation-speak for “I already have this but I’m not going to admit it because I want to see if you turn it over in discovery because if you don’t, then I’m going balls-to-the-wall after your ass. In the alternative, I don’t have anything but I want to make sure that whatever you do have gets turned…
