DETROIT (Reuters) - A Detroit prosecutor who said on Facebook that people involved in Baltimore rioting should be shot has resigned, after her comments ignited fierce criticism, the prosecutor's office said on Friday.
Wayne County Assistant Prosecutor Teana Walsh had posted comments about this week's unrest in Baltimore, which was sparked by the death of Freddie Gray after he was fatally injured in police custody, according to a screenshot of her page posted on MyFox Detroit.com.
She described "large swarms of people throwing bricks etc at police who are fleeing from their assaults" and then suggested using guns.
"Simple. Shoot em. Period. End of discussion," Walsh posted.
The comment, which was criticized by local defense attorneys, has since been taken down from Facebook and Walsh's page is not accessible.

Any thinking person would safely assume he did not mean it literally.

I agree with her. And after a couple more years of this “social justice” cr-p almost everyone will agree.

Actually READING the article would appear to be extremely informative.

I keep telling people that Detroit is a changing city and the GOP needs to capitalize on it.
Note the lack of Rioting in Detroit despite a federal agent shooting a perp just the other day. In fact, they’re complaining about the lack of accountability from the feds.

What do you mean Laz? Laz'd hit it, take it home, dress it up like yo' mamma and hit it again.

So, she had to resign for saying that looters should be shot, but the government actually sent armed agents to Bundy’s ranch with the blessings of the media and government, killed children at Waco, pointed a gun at Elias Gonzales, etc, and that was just peachy. Sent SWAT teams into the homes of private citizens in Wisconsin because of their political beliefs, etc.
