Bye Bye Louisville

[AM64]

@Rickyvol77 is a dyed in the wool police state bootlicker and NOTHING the police do will ever be wrong in his eye's. His reverence to them here is a microcosm of and representative of why "good" cops don't stand up to the bad. Just like Rick, they refuse to acknowledge anything they do is wrong and the ones that do speak up by mustering the testicular fortitude that Ricky lacks, are ostracized.

I think Ricky simply sees the job from a perspective we don't. Nothing wrong with that, but like you I don't think what's passing for civil law enforcement always passes muster. Ultimately it's people further up the line making decisions like this one. Our nitwit Chattanooga police chief goes around with a SWAT badge on his puffed out chest - he may be a stand up guy, but too gung ho for my taste. Much more ready to charge into a stand off with SWAT than to take on protestors blocking streets.

The problem here is that this wasn’t one warrant. There were simultaneous warrants being served at different locations. They do this to keep one location tipping off another.

$12 M, workman's comp, and a crapload of property damage cost a lot more than surveillance and picking up people as they came out doors at all those places.

I don't see these cops going after these pill pushing doctors or pharmacists...

Hey, there's no fun in arresting white collar crime guys. They aren't violent, so no need for guns and SWAT. Besides they usually have good lawyers and go to country club type places. Of course, if our legislators and judiciary pulled their heads out occasionally, they might connect the dots between white collar crime and the number of victims and severity vs a guy who holds up a store with a gun and realize where the potential for really screwing up people lies.

 

[VolStrom]

They had a no knock search warrant so it doesn't matter if they knocked or not. Go burn some crap down if you don't like it.

I don't blame him/her. He/she has probably been threatened by the mob at the apartment complex.

I don’t think the mob made him change his story to help the police. It seems like it might be someone else putting pressure on this witness

 

[Rasputin_Vol]

I used to live beside a physician that ran a pill mill in Knoxville and the charges against him would refute your idea.

One doctor

 

[allvol123]

One doctor

How many pill mill doctors do you think I should have lived next to at this point in my life?

 

[508mikey]

Louisville football must have been tired after their little justice thing -- lost to Pitt afterwards

 

[Rasputin_Vol]

Not one doctor next door to you. One doctor that you know of. One doctor in your home town.

I'm willing to bet that the number is much higher. And it doesn't have to be on the level of a pill mill... There are degrees to this form of drug pushing.

I'm guessing there are a lot of cops getting ready to write bogus search warrants so they can storm in and murder black people now that they know nothing will happen to them.

Do you really think, with all the pressure on them, a grand jury would not indict if the evidence even remotely supported it? I don't. Any REASONABLE person would agree. There is a lynch mob mentality against any police action used against blacks. Ms. Taylor CHOSE to co-habitate with an armed drug dealer and paid the price for her bad decision. That's a shame, but she was partially responsible for her fate. Furthermore, had she been white, she would have suffered the same fate. She was not shot because she was a black woman. She was shot because her "boyfriend" opened fire on police and she was with him. The flames of unrest are being fanned by people with another agenda. Time for people to stand up for police!

 

[LAVol1]

Tell me how I'm wrong? Cops finding any way to murder black people has been going on since this country's foundation. Now they were just given another way of doing it.

TOTAL B.S. NONE of the tragedies highlighted in the last couple of months would have occurred if the victim had followed police orders. See Chris Rock's video "How Not to Get Your A$$ Kicked by the Police".

Comply.

 

[TNVOLNAVY]

Then they should leave the country. There is someone selling drugs in every neighborhood regardless of demographics.

Most people don't care.

Sorry you have trashy drug dealing neighbors.

Lol what

Not in mine.

Sometimes ktown says things that make me think he has never left his hometown before.

Do as I say or I'll kill you seems like the appropriate level of law and order.

 

[Roustabout]

Say his name ....Christopher Michael Straub. Chris was turning his life around as the police snuffed out his young life in a blaze of gunfire in California yesterday. They said he was a white supremacist, but after being arrested 22 times, he was getting his life together, and may have even become a doctor. This is a call for all of America to march for poor Chris, and highlight the undeniable fact that the police are hunting us down in the streets..

Blue font implied

I’m assuming somewhere in Memphis and he just uses his name to try and throw people off.

Again, I don’t disagree. But none of those things are specific to race.

 

[0nelilreb]

Comply.

... and stay alive long enough to tell a judge they were wrong . Isn’t that the ultimate goal ? I mean you don’t have to but that gets us to where we are now . Me personally , I would rather be talked about as a living victim trying to fix a bad policy . Life is all about choices .

Pushing regulated drugs. Sure.

I’m sure some prefer black tar heroine for having surgery on a bulging disc.
