Drug Arrest in Boynton Beach Sparks Racial Unrest (Crowd surrounds cops-"*%^$ these crackers!")
New Times ^ | 11-19-09 | Thomas Francis

After arresting a young black man last night in Sara Sims Park, two white Boynton Beach Police officers faced down an angry crowd threatening violence. Cooney, who authored the incident report, noted here that there were some 100 people in the park and the surrounding area. He wrote:

The crowd was also yelling loudly and closing in on officers. Kelley was still screaming obscenities. Kelley was then approximately five feet from officers (Connor) Haugh and (Jeffrey) Williams when he was advised again to leave the area or be placed under arrest. Kelley then stated, 'F

Let go the suspect (Mr. marijuana) so they could deliver a righteous beat down + chase down + arrest of the two who had just committed the MUCH more serious crime of assaulting a police officer.

They made the right call IMHO.

Well, as far as I am concerned, the police had no business being there in the first place. They want to live like animals, fine! Just cordon off the area, keep them in and decent people out. Unless I was armed I would not go near the place.

Change you can believe in

Only it started in the '60s. Now it's just more of the same...

People are ready to fight.

Certain folks on the front lines are noticing. In my endless haunting of Wal-Mart for the purpose of obtaining reasonably priced ammo, I ran into someone having a fearful realization. The female clerk suggested without prompting from me that she was worried about bullet hoarders and what "they" were going to do with them. I told her it was the fault of idiot politicians that people were making certain of their supply. "Maybe I gotta get me a gun" says she. "Good idea" says I. "But I gotta get a license". Being neighborly, I explained it wasn't necessary in Pennsylvania.

obviously not if the tolerate such trash living in their community.

And just what are the good, law-abiding citizens supposed to about the vermin living on the other side? Become a bunch of lawless vigilantees?

What an utterly stupid thing to say.

Poor fellows. No doubt they were discriminated against their whole lives by surly, racist white folk. Such a shame, they were no doubt in the process of turning their lives around when this happened.

"Just cordon off the area, keep them in and decent people out."

Yeah; like they did in Watts? Where they burn down their houses, then WE (the taxpayers) pay for their new digs? That makes sense....

Shoot the bastards on sight when found breaking the law, and you eliminate chronic, repeat offenders.

actually, not as utterly stupid and narrow-minded as your response. Continued phone contact with the police, neighborhood watches and increased activities near the problem areas.

Obviously, you are a quitter.

I’m not against shooting them. In fact, that would be my first choice. But, it ain’t going to happen. But the first time you, me, or the cops give one of them so much as a dirty look the fbi, splc, naacp, jesse jackson, sharpton, the black congressional cacus,the white liberals will be on whoever does it like ugly on a ape. There is a reason that the cops are scared to go in places like that.

Boynton Beach needs to eliminate law enforcement and let the city become a “Lord of the Flies” society...........

Sane people don't go in the inner-cities at night, including police IF they can avoid it.

Cities (Democrat strongholds like Detroit, Cleveland, Philadelphia, etc.) are our form of "Beirut" streets.

Obviously, you failed to properly read my original post.

The good, law-abiding citizens live on the other side of town. They are not bothered by the trash on the east side, and couldn’t care less about them.

I am not a quitter, I do not live in Boynton Beach. You need to be more careful with your utterly stupid responses.

Your rude comment began this little spat. So be my guest and report me. Let the mods see the back-and-forth between us and let them decide who was harassing whom. Please. Do not respond to me, just report me.

Three cheers for resistance to the failed War on Drugs.
