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.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.
At the end of the day it probably should have been handled differently. I agree on that unless some other facts come to light.The context of the interactions are important.

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.
You're right, this is the crux of the issue. Y'all're fascists.Meanwhile, those of us with a brain think if anyone knew the Biden admin was going to be this corrupt, Trump would have been justified in calling for a revolution
Ronald Reagan isn't laughing at the joke the Republican party of Trump has become.
Yes, that's what that phrase means. You think they're comparing 20somethings to 60somethings?And Second, your in your 20's, YOUR SUPPOSED TO BE WORSE OFF THAN YOUR PARTENTS IN YOUR 20's. Are you worse off that your parents were when they were in their 20's?
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.
And I have a gift for you. Shove it.Turn that frown upside down, and do something about it.
The joy of giving is the greatest gift you'll ever receive.
And THAT, Dion, is my gift to you.
You're right, this is the crux of the issue. Y'all're fascists.
Why is Cohen not in jail? Seriously?

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.
Not yet. May run out there one day.
Trump fired 80% of the federal government when he was president? I admit, that's news to me.Yes.

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.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.

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.In case we need them?
Stop with the acting dumb.
And pretty obvious I was talking about Trump and the government, not Musk, in the same context.Pretty obvious he was talking about Musk in context.
Lying on the stand is a jailable offense in and of itself, unless you're protected by the uniparty.Because he’s willing to lie on the stand to take down Trump.
I've been absent for the past few days but it seems to be getting a little salty in here. Are the Dems starting to realize that the Ice Cream licker may not win in November?Well, that's not very kind of you.
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".The interactions of Brianna Taylor are totally different.

So Cohen is gonna be back in jail for embezzlement and tax fraud?
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.I've been absent for the past few days but it seems to be getting a little salty in here.

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.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".
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.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.

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.

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.lol

That is exactly why I pulled over dude. I had never done edibles before....Have you?You literally just admitted to driving impaired.
I never want to hear you up on your high horse again, Village Idiot.
