SHREVEPORT La. -- Caddo Sheriff Steve Prator and City Councilman Grayson Boucher say they confirmed that Shreveport Mayor Adrian Perkins pulled city police resources out of assisting with security for President Trump's rally for GOP gubernatorial candidate Eddie Rispone.
And they say it left the U.S. Secret Service in a lurch.
Boucher said after an SPD officer informed him on Wednesday morning, he sought confirmation outside the SPD.
"I was told by several members of law enforcement that this was true. That at about four o'clock yesterday afternoon, the mayor contacted the Secret Service and said we would no longer be participating," Boucher said.

Amos Moses was a Cajun
He lived by hisself in the swamp
Hunted alligators for a livin.
Just knock em in the head with a stump.
Wonder where the Lusiana sheriff went to?
You can sure get lost in the Lusiana bayou!
You already made that point, hence my reply to it.

15 Nov: KTBS: Shreveport mayor now says city first responders will be used for President’s visit

“He looks like a player of the skin tube flute.”
The pork piccolo.
Block all of the bridges over the Red River, only out of state plates into Bossier City. Refer everyone to the Shreveport mayor. Just a security measure you understand. Forget to take down the security points after the rally. Shreveporters won’t be able to get to the casinos. Tell them to check with the Shreveport mayor.
This is my problem with the police. While we try to support them, they are, in the end game, just blind followers of whoever is in power. They have no integrity to put their jobs on the line to actually protect and serve “the people” as they are supposedly sworn to do.
Remember, the policeman themselves “chose” to leave a major venue and not perform the job they are paid and are sworn to do.

I realize it is just speculation BUT
Conjure up the image of the $hiite$torm that would arise had a WHITE Mayor in Southern City pulled the Security Forces from a BLACK President?
I’m having flashbacks of Kennedy’s car turning onto Elm Street.
God protect our great President and give him POWER as he speaks tonight. Amen
Sorry MAGAthon, didn’t see you had posted it already.
Black privilege?
It comes down to legal responsibility vs moral responsibility.
It’s a unisex name. My grandpa had that name and so did my female principal.
YO! Adrian
Too many sane voters have left Shreveport proper. They’d just replace him with another Black Stalinist Demonrat.
I see in the picture that he is wearing an American flag. This couldn’t be further from the truth by this display.
Another liar to everyone including this countries real heroes, those that support the flag that he uses as a prop.

“Adrienne......Adrienne” real nice in the Fog. ...
