this is gonna set back Soros another 15 million
Im waiting for the Transgendered Herzbollah Brigade to show up.
Everything is riot worthy these days.
...
That’s what happens with a community organizer in the White House.
Have the yutes started to march in the streets yet?
Zero discipline from a bunch of solder wannabees.
solder = soldier
Protestors are marching, chanting, “Hands up, don’t shoot...”
Thanks for the update. Prayers are needed for Cleveland!
I think that is probably at best, not least.
I don’t see how every cop that fired wasn’t charged, and convicted. It is clearly illegal for cops to shoot and kill fleeing suspects, without provocation. There had been no crime committed, and maybe i missed it but no outstanding warrants, not that these two weren’t already convicted criminals.
I haven’t seen anything that suggested the pair purposely tried to run over some cops. I was just a bunch of keystone cops that thought a backfire was gunfire and we’re so scared they just started chasing and shooting.
Maybe I’m missing something, I fully admit I haven’t followed closely, I’ve only read 5-6 stories about the incident.
;)
In the school parking lot, 13 Cleveland officers fired a total of 137 shots at Russell's 1979 Chevrolet Malibu. Investigators from the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation said 49 of those shots came from Officer Brelo's Glock 17. His final 15 shots were fired from the hood of the suspect's car.
4 hours later and CNN still running with this non stop. Practically begging for things to somehow develop into unrest.
And we return from commercial...back to Cleveland. Unreal.
Gotta make sure let everybody know there is something to riot about.
Meanwhile in Baltimore, there have been 30 black on black killings in 30 days since the riots of April.
All black live matter although some matter more than others...
“It is clearly illegal for cops to shoot and kill fleeing suspects, without provocation.”
The provocation was a belief that the cops had been fired on. In addition, it is legal for cops to shoot at any fleeing felon, such as someone who flees at high speed. In some places, the reckless endangerment of fleeing at high speed is itself a felony.
I haven’t read the judge’s reasoning in this case, but there must be something to it for him to decide that the events, no matter how out-of-bounds they were, we’re not enough to convict the cop.
