Bingo. Anecdotally, that’s exactly why my wife and I are waiting. I’m personally content to see if they can stick the landing on the first season before I open my heart to GoT again.

...might be wearing those platinum-blond wigs for quite a while.

You mean that shooting in texas where a bunch of cowards stood around and let a bunch of kids die.

Lmao moving a bike a foot to the left is the same as hotwiring a car? Holy fucking shit we’re fucking doomed hahahaha

Wow, that is a facetious arguement. You have never seen bikes leaning against one another at a bike rack. You are dumb.

Was there no way around the parked bike?

Him: You can’t touch my bike!

Don’t mess with other peoples’ stuff

Bah, don’t bother.

I guess they think moving someone’s cart out the way in the supermarket is grounds for murder too.

That’s BS. Moving another person’s bike over a bit is like sliding others’ coats on a hanger to make some space for yours, or moving an unattended shopping cart out of your way in a store aisle.

“Vitellaro labeled the boy as an “offender” who wasn’t complying with directions.”

Yeah I’m not going to comply with some random plain-clothed individual screaming at me and trying to grab me either. Imagine that. 

I’ve resolved plenty of “possible theft” situations without throwing kids to the ground, and I’m not even a cop. 

If your shit is in a public place and in my way, I’m going to move it. If you tell me you haven’t moved other people’s stuff out of your way in a public place at least once, I’m going to call you a fucking liar.

How about that?

I didn’t read it as a “standard” he’s being held up to, but rather pointing out the fact that being attacked by a man-baby cop is going to cause some trauma that he’s going to have to work out, hopefully with proper support. It sucks that he has to do that, but it doesn’t really matter whether Sergeant Starbucks…

in all cases off duty cops should have exactly zero cop privledges. at this moment he is a private citizen wrongfully detaining a minor. IANAL but i would argue that the kids friends could have been scared for the kids life and should be allowed to act accordingly by beating the fucking shit out of this moron, and…

“...Vitellaro labeled the boy as an “offender” who wasn’t complying with directions.”

According to the Chicago Sun-Times, the boy was sitting on his bike outside of a Starbucks with his friends in Park Ridge. He moved the bike of Vitellaro’s son out of his way, which the sergeant saw as attempted theft.

Now, those boys are left wondering what about them is so suspicious,

Why should the boy be held to a standard where he needs to grow and move on from this incident, when it’s the cop who obviously is the immature one?
