Originally posted by Ana Dragule View PostValerie Richardson note in the Washington Times that FBI data on police killings are limited and data is not required to be submitted. If there are areas where people feel there is more police discrimination or more killers on the basis of race, people could band together for a change in policy to investigate this and better address needs in the communities.

I keep forgetting that Baltimore has a Police Union which adds a whole 'nuther layer of "interests", because in all my associations with police departments, I have never had to deal with Police Unions.
It's going to be difficult to get the "simple truth" out there.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Having watched the Mayor's press conference earlier today, it seemed --- weird.... she was reminiscing about her own education and career path, and sounded more like a little girl living a fairy tale than a chief executive of a major city. She seemed to be emphasizing the fact that she has lots of hours sitting in classrooms, but precious little executive experience. Then, to stand back and let Al Sharpton appear to be in charge ---- she is in WAY over her head.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

My guess is the fact it happened in their custody and they didn't take due care to avoid injury...and in the end, the charges may get reduced anyway.Watch your links! http://www.theologyweb.com/campus/fa...corumetiquette

But seriously, she's been following the liberal playbook to the letter: rioters are misunderstood, police are evil, and all handling of those riots are national issues and should be turned over to the high-powered people who take care of that sort of thing: Sharpton, Crump, etc.
Also, your posts seem to indicate that you've been reading a certain unacceptable duck's tweets. Do be careful about getting dinged for racism, comrade!
