"No, dumb libs like you are to blame. There's a term for it: enabler. Crowds are not supposed to behave this way and you should be happy that more orcs didn't perish in their chaotic and destructive "celebration"."

Sorry. You can call me anything you like, but lib just doesn't fit me. Its rather laughable if you take a look at all my other comments on other topics. I assure you my educational and conservative credentials are a lot thicker than yours.

What you don't seem to grasp is that the police had prior knowledge the mob would form. The police did little to prepare for it. In my conservative world, I'd fire an employee that didn't properly prepare. I'd make them take responsibility for there screw up. So, I'm not sure why you want to give the police a pass here. This was not some random riot. The police did not plan.

I neither give the crowd a pass, nor do I condone their behavior. But, again, it's up to the police to preserve order. If the police were prepared they would have had enough man power out there to prevent crowds spilling into the streets in the first place. It seems to me you are the enabler here of poor police work.

You are one of those that needs their own words read back to them because they forget the nonsense they say if you allow them to. This is a HUGE lib trait, and you can call yourself what you like and post here 5,000 times but if you're a lib you're a lib. And you're not the kind of conservative that the conservative American revolution is about if you are really conserving the lib mentality!

You said: "What you don't seem to grasp is that the police had prior knowledge the mob would form."

You are being repetitive! I did not deny that the police had "prior knowledge" that a "mob" would form and begin to wreak chaos on the streets. The police were prepared enough to the point where the fault for the accidental death lies with the mutants who decided to destroy things and give the cops a hard time. I give police the benefit of the doubt since they put their lives on the line everytime they put on the uniform. Police training allows for simulation firing beanbag rubberbullet or pepper at crowds. You probably don't know sh!# about line of fire or how distance and movement can affect trajectory. Feet, inches and target movement matter. I give THEM the benefit of the doubt when they choose not to put themselves at extra risk than necessary, especially for a stupid football game mob.

"In my conservative world, I'd fire an employee that didn't properly prepare."

You are not properly prepared to represent conservative thought on this website; especially when you call for firing people that have put their necks on the line just because you want to be a "compassionate conservative" . If your daughter dies in a riot, don't blame the police while you "support" them, blame the rioters.

Egalitarian ideas distort our perception of the present and, in addition, mutilate our vision of the past. -Nicolás Gómez Dávila

You need castigation because you have been very childish. I'm not being too harsh with you; lest we forget that you call for firing someone over ridiculous reasons! This is far from about giving the police "a pass" because in order to even talk that way you have to go beyond some lamenting article about the result of a situation caused by the bad behavior of spoiled girls and boys who will do far more harm in the future than merely rioting.
