Maybe this would have been the time to employ the *shoot-shovel-shut-up* philosophy.

**I dunno, I thought I saw it there yesterday**

The only way anyone has to “act” around the majority of LE, is to not be breaking the law. Blacks want a pass to break the law with impunity, and then cry “raycism” when their actions have the natural consequences.

Chicago is setting an example of what happens when the “community” tells LE to get lost, stay out of their hoods, leave the criminals alone-the murder rate is on course to break records. Now the “community” is bitching that the police aren't doing their jobs-when that's what they demanded.

They can't be really be so stupid as to demand that police desist from making stops for probable cause in areas with high rates of crime, and then be surprised when more violent crimes are committed. The police can't read minds and get there right before the criminal pulls the trigger.

Also, their judicial system is a revolving door, even for violent criminals. Before the CPD went fetal, they had to feel like they were trying to empty the ocean with a sieve, because as fast as they could arrest criminals, the thug-hugger judges would release them.

Good idea, but I doubt that people can draw breath there without someone watching.

Lets see.
Hypocrisy reigns.

A picture is taken from a wall and placed in the office of the person who placed it on the wall.

In ‘their feeble minds’ this is grand theft.
The real ‘beauty’ of this is said Congressman took his complaint to the POLICE while it is the Police who are being maligned in the poster.

A 6’8 300 pd+ 18 year old, in shape, goes into a store, rambles OVER the 5’3 120 lb clerk, takes what he wants, leaves, walks down the middle of a busy street— a Policeman attempts to stop him and ‘Tiny’ attempts to wrestle his gun away, ends up getting shot by the cop and the COP is charged (well - it is the Cops fault) after a lengthy investigation it is found the Cop didn’t know about the strong arm robbery so he had no business f’n with the kid walking down the middle of the street.

A Baltimore City Councilman or Ward person -whose wife is the ‘States Attorney’ DEMANDS more police presence in ‘his’ neighborhood due to the increase in drug trafficking.
The Police start rousting drug sales people, one - who is known to the Police runs, get captured and dies in the van.
Despite another van passenger who said the guy slammed himself inside the van, 6 police get charged with his death (the guy had pulled this crap before and gotten a cash settlement) and they attempt to hang the 6.
The Mayor and States Attorney tell the Police to ‘stand down’ during the riots that followed.
The Mayor, States Attorney & the Councilman are still there and the latest out of Baltimore is they don’t have enough Police.

DUH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So if Hunter is charged with theft and Clay accepted the property, then shouldn’t Clay be charged with possession of stolen property?

What would happen if an elected official put up a painting in the U.S. Capitol wall of the exact same motif but in this case showing the rioting blacks with heads of monkeys with big blood stained teeth and depicting some of the monkeys holding big screen TVs and others pointing guns at the police and the police are depicted with halos around their heads and saving a little white girl who is about to be hit over the head with a bottle of liquor by one of the rioting monkeys and there is a frightened baby deer in the mayhem holding a sign that reads “911”?

Paintings that are propaganda, jingoistic renditions of hate, have no place in the halls of Congress.

Similar to this case (Woman arrested for stealing a D.C. police officer’s french fries) except the two stolen french fries were worth more than one poorly executed painting.

I hadn't seen the painting before. Apparently Duncan Hunter removed it to save the rest of us from the trauma of viewing a badly done 4th grade art project.

What a nasty, amateurish piece of "art".

Clay continued. “Any black parent would tell you that they have to have this conversation with their children about police and how to act around them, so that’s the conversation we need to be having here. . . .

I guess Lacy Clay wants the painting to start the conversation with, "Son see that WILD BOAR PIG right there?"

In the Capitol performing the People’s business means that he cannot be arrested or charged, pretty much.

“...after a lengthy investigation it is found the Cop didn’t know about the strong arm robbery so he had no business f’n with the kid walking down the middle of the street.”

Actually the Cop, Wilson, was indeed aware of the robbery commited by the punk and his cohort.
