He may have been a Prince but he was acting ghetto.

I am not scared at the sight of a gun, but I am petrified at the sight of a lawyer named Bickerton. So there’s that.

Could very well be settle and not take a chance a jury would award a bigger payment.

In Hawaii...whites and foreigners like Mr Prince dead Zulu are all haoles! Don't know if his wife will get much of a payout from a Hawaiian jury.

It would have been nice had the article gone into more detail about the struggle.

But it must have been a doozy. From the article: “One cop was also hospitalized with major facial injuries and concussion…”

If Myeni was advancing faster than the cops could maneuver, this would seem like a good shoot.

As a side note, in the old days every cop carried a hickory wood baton. Most don’t now, for various reasons. I wonder if a baton used as a prod would have been useful here.

[Prosecutor Steven] Alm also noted that Myeni, a former rugby player, suffered from stage three chronic traumatic encephalopathy, a degenerative brain disorder often seen in people who have had repeated concussions or head trauma.

The hickory shampoo.

It’s a long story, but there’s a giant riot baton that was given to my father leaning against my safe. It’s a very simple piece of hardware.

Sure, in a "democracy" your suppose to just bend over and take it. Just because "THEY" say so.

And the reason they give for being able to rape and rob you is, this is a "democracy".. (spit)

> The hickory shampoo. <

Yep. If I recall correctly, the Rodney King incident put an end to that. The cops were using their batons as clubs and not as prods. That got many folks upset.

Awhile back I was talking to a cop I know about equipment. Why don’t you carry a baton? He (surprisingly) said it’s a financial thing. To carry a baton, a police officer has to go through a couple of days of training, on an annual basis. The township doesn’t want to spend the money.

I don’t know how true that is. But that’s what he said.
