Looks like the DA did the ham sandwich thing. Meanwhile, even Putin is aghast over Ashli Babbitt being executed by the US Government.

I’d like to know what the protester was doing when the cop cracked her over the head. Was she throwing a rock or a bottle at the cops? Was she in the middle of committing arson or looting?
I’d be willing to bet 100 bucks that she deserved that hit on the head.

But murdering Ashlii Babbitt in cold blood is A OK, as long as that person voted for Trump

And I give a flower to the big fat cop,
He takes his club and he beats me up.
I give a flower to the garbage man,
He stuffs my girl in the garbage can.
And I give it to the landlord, when the rent comes ‘round.
He throws it in the toilet and he flush it down.
It goes into the sewer with the yuck running through her,
And it runs into the river that we drink.
Hey world, you stink!

In March, the city settled with Jacobs for $50,000 plus $11,000 in legal fees, court records show.
————————————
Hah! That’s chicken feed. If she was really injured the settlement would’ve been into six or seven figures. The city just gave her that amount to shut her up and get her to go away.

“ the integrity of our criminal justice system requires that we, as prosecutors, act as a mechanism for accountability,”
Really? How many rioters have been charged?

Not detailed that it was the officer’s dance class baton where he is studying to be a drum major. Inspired by The Music Man’s “76 Trombones” number. Baton had rounded pink tips.

Fun poem we needed today.
As William Carlos Williams wrote (In the long poem Asphodel, That Greeny Flower):
It is difficult
to get the news from poems
But men die miserably every day
for lack
of what is found there.

Let’s pay no attention at all to what the ‘protester” was doing at the time. Whatever it was, though, it certainly wasn’t rioting.
To: BenLurkin
Yeah, the “protestors” these days are a far cry from that bunch.

So who the hell were the police officers who arrested him for this?
