When I have had our people out on the street in larger numbers, it wasn’t without contacting the local police, defining parameters, and promising them that we would ALWAYS observe the law and comply with their direction.

I was responsible for the group. I also wanted the officers to know that we are law and order people, and support law enforcement.

We are Conservatives. We DO believe in law and order. We DO realize police officers are the ultimate authority when dynamics on the street are getting dicey.

I won’t be having a problem with them, because if they ask our group to move or to get back from the curb, or ask anything else, we will comply.

Our cause is not served by giving them lip.

Not saying I never have, but in group dynamics it’s not the best thing to do.

I’ve seen a bunch of them in person in the last couple years and they are all sloppy and slovenly

I don't know how many here have been "on the street reporters" but I have, and after your first suit is ruined by covering TV news out on the street you "dress down." Also it's better camaflage

I get it.

There’s casual and then there’s total slob.

The last one I saw, about a week ago could have been holding a “Will work for food” sign

The Dispatch has already basically put a bounty on the head of every cop in St. Louis and they are glad to do it.
