Because we don’t really care what’s on the front page of your local paper, unless it impacts nationally.

This is certainly at least news...not chat.

It must be getting harder and harder to find loyal, moral people to fill the spots...

By the way, why is this Denver front page news item in General/Chat?

Because we don’t really care what’s on the front page of your local paper, unless it impacts nationally.

No problem. I had no idea the "News" category criteria needed to be "national" in nature. wow...

I was never aware of that.

Apparently, it IS against the law to photograph the police in twelve states!

I still believe the man who got beat up could have avoided doing so by waiting and approaching the driver when the cops were not there.

Man, I've never seen anyone on this board duck and dodge as much as you have on this thread.

The dog walker didn't get assaulted for talking to the driver getting the ticket. The Dog walker got assaulted after that, while standing by himself on the sidewalk.

The assault occurred when dog walker was standing BY HIMSELF on the sidewalk....The motorist had nothing to do with this assault. Watch the video....

You have repeatedly implied the dog walker was assaulted because he "jumped in" and stood in-between, the officers and the motorist getting a ticket, and obstructed them from doing their job.

This isn't not what happened. lol

I've never ran into anyone like you, that literally runs from truth and ignores facts and hard video evidence.

I have not ducked or dodged one damn thing and as I said you are getting very tiresome and repetitive. A question and the obvious answer:

Q: Why were the cops writing him up before it escalated to the beating?

A: Because the man had already stepped in, giving his contact info to the original ticketed person.

****************

The cops did not like that as was confirmed by the attorney, whom you seem to have no knowledge of. You keep coming back with the same crap and not acknowledging my contention that there was a better course of action then the one the man chose.

Did he deserve the beating.................. of course not, I never said he did.

Hey Michael.....you could have avoided all of the backlash against you buy not posting on here.

Oh! Wait!!

You are just doing what you can legally do and you are expressing your opinion.

Thank God we have that! By standing on the side and not sticking up for yourself, our right will slowly erode.

Your post #69: "You guys stand back.....I am about to shred this Michael person"

As shredings go your post #91 was actually pretty tame.

You disappointed me, and here I have waited for 3.5 hours.

The shredding has not started yet.....just getting you tenderized.

I will destroy your arguments with logic.

I am considering if you are even worth the effort to be honest.

The public humiliation of you will be more for the benefit and enjoyment of others on here.

You have dug your heels in and show no signs of moving.

Meanwhile....just go look at yourself in the mirror and slap yourself a few times. That is from me.

You can deny this all you want...But anyone can read back at your responses here. The Internet makes a great witness.

You have ducked and dodged your way thorough this thread. This is inordinately clear.

Bottom line here is the video doesn't lie.

The video clearly depicts the following:

1. The officers walk over to the dog walker, who was by himself, up on the sidewalk and was not interfering with anyone.

2. The dog walker was not obstructing the officers prior to and when he was assaulted by the officers, in fact the video show the officers chatting with the dog walker prior to the assault.

My honest advise for you is to never go into court and testify in the manner similar to what you've displayed here. No judge would ever put up with it and would likely find you in contempt for refusing to answer simple questions, and failing to admit the obvious.

Give me a quote and reference the post, or STFU.

I have never said that which you accuse me of. I have instead said............... he had a better course of action which would have avoided his being beaten up.

That was posted about 6 hours ago, I guess you are still building your case.

Watch the little dog half way through the video, when the little pooch walks over and sits right in front of his owners face, in a display of protection, as the dog owner is getting his head mashed into the concrete by the officers knee.

Brave little dog, considering the dog had no idea if he was next to be attacked.
