Chief [Bratton] blames `knuckleheads' for Lakers disturbance

"Disturbance" = riot. Given the property damage, looting and injuries to police personnel, the chief's response is to call the perps quaint little names. Bratton is useless.

Knuckle-headed hoes?

[GeronL]

Find them and punish them or just outlaw championships

[HIDEK6]

mob of "knuckleheads."

Isn't that a euphemism for a racist slur?

Chief [Bratton] blames `knuckleheads' for Lakers disturbance

I guess that's one way of describing soulless people with little education and a penchant for conscienceless violence; another way is 'Hollywood stars'...

Refugees from Knuckland, formerly known as Nyuk Nyuk Nyuks...

This ‘chief’ is afraid to say anything that could get him in trouble. He IS useless! He also did say the jerks are “stupid” and there are great photos of them all caught on camera. That’s nice, but what is he going to DO with those photos? My guess: nothing at all!

Wise guy eh?

I really don’t know the answer to this question, but I have a guess...On Friday night, the Pittsburgh Penguins won the Stanley Cup. Were there “disturbances” in the ‘burgh?

[snarks_when_bored]

Nah...nobody cares enough about hockey to celebrate...

(heh)

Soitenly!

I am sure there will be some sort of backlash on this for the use of such an offensive slur. Carpal cranial-American is the politically correct term for this minority group.

Don't insult the Moe.

Moe Howard was a genius compared to this guy.

[maggief]

"Knuckleheads" ...

[Mind Freed]

I think the L.A. Lakers should have put out a statement saying that they are embarrassed by the way their fans acted and ashamed of the so called celebration. If I were Phil Jackson or the owner of the Lakers I would think twice about having a parade.

[slumber1]

Find them and punish them or just outlaw championships

I favor the latter - no more championships for LA

[Deo volente]

Must be nice to be able to stay up late on a Sunday night, looting and vandalizing.

I guess these “knuckleheads” don’t have to get up early on Monday for work, like the rest of us.
