I generally agree with what you are saying but am not going to throw the cop under the bus until more very specific details come out and the "video" from across the street comes out (doubtful).
I do think it was a misunderstanding and probably should have been handled differently.....but Sheffler definitely got the white glove treatment once in custody....unlike anyone else arrested for something similar.
I would just like some acknowledgement that, generally speaking, we are much quicker to side with the people we look like or identify with over those we have less in common with. Human nature and identity politics at play.
That is the root of why many Dems (not me) excuse the BLM riots and many Pubs excuse the Jan 6th riot.

The context of the interactions are important. LMPD had ample time to figure out that this was #1 and had every right to be allowed access to Valhalla. I can say that it was a total cluster eff getting in there. I was there Thurs and arrived in daylight. Cannot imagine how effed up it was at 7am in the rain after a death. Certainly the cop may have had reason to be on a higher level alert. But SOMEONE there (and every cop in town was on site) had time to see that this was #1 and to realize that they needed to diffuse this. Give a ticket.

You or I would still be in jail, and not have Steve Romines as our atty, though I do know Steve very well so maybe YOU wouldnt have him as your atty. LOL.

The interactions of Brianna Taylor are totally different. Not a famous pro golfer. Drugs. Fleeing from a crime vs. a traffic stop like this one in a CLEARLY marked PGA event car is different and its unfair to tie those together.

At the end of the day it probably should have been handled differently. I agree on that unless some other facts come to light.
 
Steve Romines smokes the kind, guaranteed. I know the look.

(he might even, or definitely did in the past, add a little octane to it.)

Ronald Reagan isn't laughing at the joke the Republican party of Trump has become.
I'm sure the KGB loves Americans sharing their propaganda videos making fun of their own American President.
Wonder how many Ukrainians have been slaughtered by that funny prankster Putin?
Useful idiot.

As far as pot....Yes....many times but it's just not my thing.
I get a different buzz every time and it's not always to my liking. Did edibles once and I would get sober only to begin digestion again and get high. It was like being on a sober/high roller coaster. Had to pull over 10 times on my way home.
I also don't trust pot anymore with how much it is manipulated before sale.
Much prefer the quality control of a Bud Light can or bottle. It's predictable and legal.

Yes, opposition to a strong centralized government corruptly targeting its political opposition with full support of big corporate America and big media makes me a fascist.

If the Biden admin was doing this same thing in a shithole Muslim country, the uniparty would have already used the corruption as justification for a bombing campaign.

Yet it’s the Biden admin so you fully support it.

He was in a marke PGA Players vehicle. regardless of them stopping all other traffic, there had to be certain exceptions to who was let in so as to not disrupt the flow of events and they decided to go the route of disrupting the flow of events for one particular player. Marked PGA player vehicles should have been a given. Sounds like he was confused on the directions he was being given amidst the chaos and because the cops were all wearing yellow vests, he didn't realize he was a police officer. Then the officer went overboard.

Exactly. We kept them to use them if needed. This is the 'needed'. If we didn't want them being used, we would've destroyed them. Like I already said, both sides had already been using them before anyone got ours. This is the definition of a nothingburger.

Rich vs not. Breonna Taylor was asleep in her bed in the middle of the night when the police broke down the door. Not "fleeing from a crime".

I let Dion get under my skin, after I posted about attending the Honor Flight reception at Bluegrass Airport and describing what a moving experience it was, and Dion crapped on it. I think he said it promotes unhealthy fetishism of the military, and said I was glorifying war. Jingoistic, fascist, MAGA, he fired his entire quiver of buzzwords about it/me.

Shame on me; I took the bait, when I should have just ignored him. Nihilists are tiresome. And too silly to argue with. They exist in two dimensions. I blame myself for engaging. Stain on me. Live and learn.

She was not asleep in her bed. Her coward boyfriend who fired the first shot used her as a human shield. She wasn't awaken from her peaceful slumber with an array of bullets like the media wants you to believe. Yes, her death was tragic and should have been avoided, and the Cops were not in the right regarding how they approached it, I'm not defending anybodies actions, just stop lying about what really happened.

You have nothing to be ashamed of. Dion should be ashamed for shitting on the very soldiers who fought for his right to say half the commie BS he spews on the daily.

Occasionally y'all feel secure enough here in your safe space to say the quiet part out loud. Trump's "revolution" is the biggest danger facing this country today. Not China. Not Russia. Not Islam. Not communists. Not Antifa. The only one with the practical and logistical capabilities(outside of total thermonuclear mutually assured annihilation, and even that's not a guarantee at this point) to seriously threaten the United States of America is a MAGA insurgency. Now, I personally don't think a version of that is likely to happen. But you can't blame the giant defense apparatus America created for itself for doing what it was designed to do. In the Cold War it aggressively went after communists when there weren't really even any. They definitely didn't come anywhere close to the presidency or try to overthrow our constitutional republic from the seat itself. I wish this could be a point of agreement between the right and left, to rail in the expansive power of the defense and intelligence communities. But y'all really are the extremists they accuse you of being. It's on display in this thread every day getting worse and worse. Think about all the flybys who reminisce about what this place was like pre-Trump when all this vitriol was underground.

That is exactly why I pulled over dude. I had never done edibles before....Have you?
Had no idea you could feel 100 percent sober and then suddenly get a wave of digestion that kicks in a buzz.
Never did it before. Never did it again. Never had a DUI. Always get a Lyft or a sober driver.
It was a one off when I was younger...pulled off the road and learned my lesson.

If the MAGA insurgency is a threat then they're pretty awful at it. That January 6th "riot" was an embarassment, but not for the reasons you hear on TV. That thing was pathetic LOL

I've been hearing about MAGA for eight years. I mean, are they on a THIRTY year plan to take over? Because, if you ask me, they don't seem all that motivated.

Are we absolutely POSITIVE that this is a thing?

^^^^ @Dionysus444 , seriously?

I need to lower my BP now...

Dion, you should move to Venezuela. I think you might like it there. Still in the western hemisphere but right up your socialist alley.
