Our judges need to treat these mobs with dam harsh justice. Give them five years without parole.....hard labor. If they get caught again, give them 20 years.”
Alledgely, only 78 were actually arrested.
Most of them have ‘been processed’ & turned loose already, according to noon news out of San Fran.
I wonder if insuramce will cover all these losses.
Seattle had a police car vandalized, windows smashed & tires flattened. Spray painted “Oscar Grant Was Here”.
All you ever hear out of the trouble makers in cities like Oakland is what you saw last night....
It was MURDER!”....
Mehserle ws on that platform for less than 2 minutes to assess the situation & join other officers in trying to subdue a number of trouble-making blacks who were raising Hell on the BART system- inside the cars. They were intimidating passengers & being overly troublesom. Passengers in the moving cars called 911 for help. This station was the first place they could get the troublemakers off the train & try to take them into custody.
Oscar Grant was on his stomach—& he was in handcuffs-—
BUT: He continued to try & move & kick at officers who were trying to subdue other blacks who were part of the problem. I am convinced that the officer thought he had his Taser in his hand.
The gangs & troublemakers raise Hell with the general population & then cry “foul” when they get caught. The politicians work overtime to push decent citizens into MASS TRANSIT, where you are then a contained target for becoming a victim.
How many ‘officers’ work for only the Mass Transit systems nationwide?
That alone is a terrible statistic-—but when you are trapped in a moving train car with men & women bent on giving you trouble....now you need more & more ‘mass transit police’.
These are officers completely separate from the regular police in your cities.
Now-—NObama & the Feds who thought it was OK to turn loose CONVICTED Black Panthers who were intimidating voters in Nov 2008 are willing to step in & think about trying Mehserle AGAIN of “violation of Oscar Grant’s civil right’s charges”.
Who thinks for one minute about the passengers on that train & others all over the country who are in fear every minute they are on these trains?
Want to push me out of my car? Think again.
Ya know, I don’t care what color those people in the riots are. If they riot, round them up, lock them up and throw away the key. Start handing out extremely harsh sentences and maybe they’ll think about it. But, maybe they won’t. I’m beginning to think they don’t have the brains to think about it.
You need to have the right to carry.
Somehow I doubt that the capture/killing of my murderer will satisfy my wife, and, of course, it’ll do nothing for me.
Of course, once into my first job post college, I refuse to ride public transit, but YMMV.
“but when you are trapped in a moving train car with men & women bent on giving you trouble....now you need more & more ‘mass transit police’.”
Nope, you don’t. You need to be armed.
“BUT: He continued to try & move & kick at officers who were trying to subdue other blacks who were part of the problem. I am convinced that the officer thought he had his Taser in his hand.”
Idiot should not have been resisting arrest. Anyone knows that police officers are the most tense beings on the planet and will do whatever it takes to stay alive.
Idiot should not have been out wilding in the first place.
“Our judges need to treat these mobs with dam harsh justice. Give them five years without parole.....hard labor. If they get caught again, give them 20 years.””
These judges are too afraid of Oprah.
“.now you need more & more ‘mass transit police’”
Stupid idiots causing more and more expenses in our government.
