Intermission

Your Blogmeister’s German Desk

I’m interrupting my weekend to take this quick moment to make fun of all the utopian dopes who actually think that all this talk about eliminating the police is serious, and not anything more than the idle internet and social media clickbait and election year lumpenproletarian GOTV agitprop that it is. It’s as if they don’t realize that the elites need protection, governments need revenue from tickets and fines, and also a way to extract taxes from unwilling individuals.

No, what will happen in the next few years is a “benign neglect” strategic withdraw from “vibrant” areas, and the resultant Ferguson Effect. But, there will still be police departments. The extreme cynic in me thinks that this will all be used as a convenient excuse to wipe away pension liabilities. And you always have to consider that this is all a pincher strategy, floating obviously extreme ideas out there to make people think they could happen, to scare them into accepting a more “moderate” position which they wouldn’t have wanted if it was proposed by itself.

It’s very similar to this “abolish ICE” talk, which I have already dealt with.  Ironically, when I was in this country as a mere tourist.

UPDATE

If Minneapolis dissolves its police department, primary patrolling duties would default to the Hennepin County Sheriff’s Office and/or the Minnesota State Patrol. Chew on that.

Along with my previously stated cynicism, if major cities do eliminate their local PDs, I think it’s really for a combination of wanting to get out of pension obligations, wanting to unload the very expense of a PD, including insurance (important because of the ghetto lottery), and all in all passing the buck to county sheriff and state police agencies.

It’s On

Downtown St. Louis

Forget about Iran.  A real war has broken out back in St. Louis, between Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner and the St. Louis City Police Officers Association.

Four years ago, and I would have had a front row seat.  The bombs bursting in air, right above my head.

If I know St. Louis’s civic elite and establishment like I do, then this will be the big serial thing for them for as long as it lasts, and of course it will matter to the directly interested and involved parties, but the rest of St. Louis will snore.  If I was still there, I would be covering the blow by blow, including slipping in some insider info, but strategically so, so as not to blow my cover.  Alas, I’ll just have to follow the P-D’s telling, and whatever secret squirrels back there that even remember me that send me privileged info from time to time.

In related news, I see there’s this.  The only corporeal human being I voted for in 2016 other than Trump was Josh Hawley for Attorney General, in the primary, because the party establishment choice was a rat fink Judas on Mizzou, and then in the general after Hawley won the primary, because I knew by then that the Soros whore in the person of Kim Gardner would be the next Circuit Attorney, and we’d need Hawley as AG to do the prosecution that she wouldn’t.  Since then, the deck has been shuffled in state government executive positions, and it’s now Eric Schmitt as AG, and then of course the upset of Wesley Bell over Bob McCulloch in August 2018, he being another Gardner-type.  (The only reason he actually didn’t get Soros money is that nobody thought he had a chance.)  So it’s now Schmitt having to do Wesley Bell’s and Kim Gardner’s work.  And of course, the cops in St. Louis City and County are dropping more and more case files in Jensen’s lap instead of Bell’s or Gardner’s — That much, if I wasn’t smart enough to guess, I know from continuing to read the St. Louis media.

And, of course, as I always say about the native city:

“Problemfeldern der Gesellschaft” (Patterson’s First Axiom Sighting in Germany)

Duisburg

I’ll translate and net it out:

ZOMG A DUISBURG COP CAR HAD AN IDENTITARIAN MOVEMENT SHIRT BUTTON INSIDE LOL~!!!!1!!1

But here’s the money quote:

Es ist klar, dass Polizisten, die tagtäglich mit den Problemfeldern der Gesellschaft zu tun haben, für solche Dinge empfänglich sind.

Which translates to:

It’s clear that police officers who deal with the problem areas of society on a daily basis are susceptible to such things.

It’s Patterson’s First Axiom.

What do you think is going to happen to a young white rookie on the St. Louis City Police Department who is given a beat along Natural Bridge?

Likewise, a real German who becomes a cop in Duisburg who doesn’t become an identitarian or some rough equivalent has to be a phlarking moron.

Duisburg has all of current year Germany’s mystery meat vibrancy in one place, but the most ostentatious group are the Gypsies (Roma).  A group that Americans have almost zero direct experience with.  But everything I’ve ever heard about them…well, let’s just say their reputation is well earned, and a little bit more.  Otherwise, Duisburg is the last consummately industrial city here in The Region, (save Leverkusen, a Bayer company town), which had an industrial reputation for a very long time, but most of the cities in it have been transitioning to post-industrial in the last few decades.  Add the two together, and you can figure it’s not a pleasant place to live.

And a headache to police.

Note:  Colloquially, in both the German and non-German media, the forces are referred to with the moniker of the city they serve, in this instance, the “Duisburger Police.”  However, law enforcement in Germany is a state function at the ground level, not a municipal function.  The agency is the North Rhine-Westphalia State Police, and it has a number of divisions (constabularies) corresponding to either a given city or a given large swath of a rural area.  What it means is that, from a powerology perspective, the power routes from the democratic imperative into the actual elected state government, and from there it routes into senior police officials, then in a Weberian sense down through the department ranks.

Germany has absolutely nothing like American style county sheriffs, and from my reading of German history, has never.  So much so that the German language(s) never developed a word to describe the concept;  Modern German merely appropriates the English language word “sheriff,” and almost all the time its usage relates to American crime stories, news, documentaries, histories.

Vindication

Cedar Hill

First off, this doesn’t tell you who it is, but I’ll confirm who it isn’t, everyone’s favorite doggy around these parts.

Now, as for the real dog in this story, it is no surprise to me that someone on whom the JCSD needed to serve process also owns a pit bull.

Me, April 9:

I have come to distrust and really turn a side eye toward people (of any race) that own really mean vicious dogs.  What we have to understand, in spite of all the righteous complaining that emanates from our sector, is that tragedies like Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom are rare.  Which is one of the reasons why they’re so tragic to begin with.  In reality, I think a very sizable plurality of the really bad things that happen to most people, the victims kinda sorta bring on themselves.  Even if they’re not civilly or criminally liable in those circumstances.  Which is why, for instance, when I read a story about thirty yoots invading a house in North St. Louis County, my first inclination is to think that the people inside the house aren’t exactly MIT professors or symphony orchestra conductors.

Which is why I’m going to put a lot of daylight between myself and someone who owns dogs of known vicious breeds or vicious individual dogs of a not quite so vicious breed.  I think to myself:  Why do you think you need such mean dogs?  And the obvious answer I have for my own question is that, at least on some subconscious level, you realize that you’re messing around with the wrong people, the wrong side of town, and the wrong side of the tracks, and you at least subconsciously realize that the people you’re messing with will probably send some illicit debt collectors or illicit conflict resolution experts to your house, and you want Pit Bulls and Rottweilers to stand between they and yourself.  As an aside, that’s why I think the black undertow loves pit bulls, because, at least on some subconscious level, ghetto blacks know that they either are or will eventually be fucking with other ghetto blacks to the point where they’re going to get “touched.”

Fifty-Two Years a St. Louisan

Downtown West

Lawrence O’Toole, currently a light bird on the SLPD, who served as acting chief in the recent interregnum between Dotson and Kojak, is alleging discrimination in the process that wound up selecting Kojak but in which he was a finalist.

It’s as if he just started living here a few years ago, and hasn’t lived here for all 52 years of his life, save possible brief exceptions for this that or the other.

By now, he should know the time of day.

Since Bob Scheetz’s retirement, the lay of the land when it comes to SLPD Chief has been that it alternates every other one between black and white.  That and that alone was a clue that Dotson’s successor was going to be black.  But the other reason we knew it would be black is because this is the first chief transition since Ferguson and the Ferguson Effect around here.

If I knew this, then O’Toole knew this.

To the extent his complaint will be successfully resolved in his favor, it will involve nothing more than Lyda stuffing a few money rolls in his mouth to shut him up.

Early Train

Washington, D.C.

Me, July 3:

Listen up, progtards:  The big name top shelf top drawer Democrats yelling about abolishing ICE have absolutely no intention to do so if one of them ever becomes President, and will not vote for such a measure if such a measure gains serious political legs, i.e. has a chance of actually being enacted. They’re only making noise to raise money and churn election year interest from progtard utopian true believer dorks who are dumb enough to think that abolishing ICE is something that actually can be accomplished.  Sure, the big name Democrats yelling ZOMG ABOLISH ICE LOL may vote for token legislation now, knowing it will never pass this House or Senate, and knowing Trump wouldn’t sign it.  But if it gets to a Democrat President who theoretically could sign it, but actually would not, they would vote against such a bill.

Which means I thought that even big name Democrats with national ambitions would vote for a bill to abolish ICE now just to get “on the record” for fund raising and base agitating purposes, but only because they know it would not result in the abolishment of ICE actually occurring.

But the very late breaking developments in the final days of the voyage and the return trip home and my several days of paying off my sleep deficit is that Congressional Republicans, probably at the insistence of Trump and/or Stephen Miller, are pushing hard for floor votes on an abolish ICE bill, just to get Democrats on record, and the Democrats are resisting even getting a bill to the floor, because they don’t even want to go on record, because my guess is polling and focus group data available to the political class but not to the general public shows that the concept of abolishing ICE is almost as toxic and third-rail-ish as advocating getting rid of Social Security.  This means that big name Democrats don’t even want to be forced to go on record right now, because they’ll get stuck in between the rock of touching a third rail or the hard place of offending their kook utopian base slash offending donors.  Which means, contrary to their reputation as the Stupid Party, Congressional Republicans are doing something tactically intelligent, for once.  Which is why I think they’re not the ones that came up with it, that it was Trump/Miller.

Like I wrote back on July 3, what they’re really waiting on is for the next Democrat or establishment Republican President who, like Bush-Clinton-Bush-Obama did, will deploy ICE to purely non-immigration duties, at which time the concept of abolishing ICE in a formal sense won’t matter.

It’s Like an Old Familiar Score

Washington, D.C.

Guten Abend aus Ulm.

From a half a world away, I’m observing this scam of a dog and pony show afoot, and I’m amazed that the sort of people who I would have thought would see right through it and call boo sheet on it aren’t doing so.

It’s this matter of “Abolish ICE.”  This boob bait for the progressivetard masses.

Time for Uncle Blogmeister to sit the world down on his lap and tell it the facts of life.

Listen up, progtards:  The big name top shelf top drawer Democrats yelling about abolishing ICE have absolutely no intention to do so if one of them ever becomes President, and will not vote for such a measure if such a measure gains serious political legs, i.e. has a chance of actually being enacted. They’re only making noise to raise money and churn election year interest from progtard utopian true believer dorks who are dumb enough to think that abolishing ICE is something that actually can be accomplished.  Sure, the big name Democrats yelling ZOMG ABOLISH ICE LOL may vote for token legislation now, knowing it will never pass this House or Senate, and knowing Trump wouldn’t sign it.  But if it gets to a Democrat President who theoretically could sign it, but actually would not, they would vote against such a bill.

How do I know?

Two reasons:

One, it was not so long ago that our side was calling for the abolition of a Federal law enforcement agency.

How did that work out for us?  How did it turn out in the long run?

Right.

Any political muscle there ever was to eliminating that particular law enforcement agency disappeared on September 11, 2001.  Meaning that, if you’re a politically aware later-half Millennial or younger, then you will have zero conscious memory of the American right ever advocating for the wholesale abolition of a law enforcement agency.  If you’re an early Millennial, then you might remember, but you would have had to have been paying close attention to American politics and current affairs from a deep dive perspective starting at a pretty young age.  If you’re older, then you probably remember, provided you were paying attention.

But, believe me, we/it did.  And we failed.

So I know how it’s going to turn out for you in the Abolish ICE crowd, because I’ve seen that movie before, I know how it ends.

Red pill:

There’s nothing more permanent than a government program, even more so for a law enforcement agency.  The current agents for that agency want their nice cushy Federal jobs, paychecks, benefits and pensions.  They’ll inevitably search for reasons to exist, or adapt to the current political reality, or cry uncle to enough elected officials and House/Senate committee chairmen.

Two, and with the above in mind, we already know how an open borders Democrat President would deal with ICE, because we had an open borders Democrat President until January 20, 2017.  Baraq Obama wasn’t dumb enough to call for abolishing ICE.  Because he did the next best (worst) thing — Keep ICE, so that all the agents could have their nice cushy jobs, paychecks, benefits and pensions, but deploy them to duties and missions that are tangentially relevant to ICE’s mission, but not at all relevant to what most people think ICE was established to do, which is found in the first and third letter of the acronym.  Examples were cracking down on fake NFL jerseys, and child porn on some teacher’s computer, and harassing people who wore Google Glass in a movie theater.   In other words, anything that is within ICE’s guide book, and either politically universally popular or demanded by either a well known profitable corporation or Democrat donors/bundlers (RIAA/MPAA and the multimedia conglomerates it rides herd for are big Democrat donors/bundlers).  Above all else, never enforce immigration law, except for maybe trying halfheartedly to deport the odd 853-time convicted felon back to Guatemala.  If we have another open borders Democrat President, he/she/xe/it/they will merely follow the Obama playbook.  But no actual abolition of ICE.

And I’ll bring this full circle by noting that it was better in the long run that the ATF was not eliminated, because its existence as an agency separate from the FBI is how we were able to find out at all about Operation Gunrunner (“Fast and Furious”), as the late Mike Vanderboegh documented.  Even though the ATF, in fear of its elimination, tried to manufacture reasons for its existence, the most unfortunate and drastic of which was Waco.

Long and short to all you progtards reading this:  I’m hardly on your side, but do yourselves this favor and take this wooden nickel’s worth of free advice:  Don’t let people wind you up and get you to throw bricks through windows for the sake of a cause they have no intention of following through upon.

Two Things At Work Here

Jefferson City

MissouriNet:

Missouri among worst states to be a police officer, has several of the most dangerous cities

There’s new research showing Missouri has some of the most dangerous cities and is one of the worst states to work as a police officer.

Two of the top 25 most dangerous cities with more than 100,000 residents are St. Louis which ranks 4th and Kansas City at number 19 on the list.

There’s the first thing at work here: The Ferguson Effect.

The personal finance website’s data shows the top 5 states to be a police officer are, in order, North Dakota, New York, Connecticut, Minnesota, and California.

Wallethub’s research shows that officers, like people in most professions, are drawn to financial perks, but are also more likely to be attracted to police departments that steer clear of scandal and corruption and that are transparent with their communities.

There’s the second thing at work here: Moynihan’s Law of the Canadian Border. Funny when you want transparency, lack of scandals and lack of corruption, you’re thinking about high trust and high social capital, and states like North Dakota and Minnesota rank at the top.

This official reason for encrypting police radio traffic is Barbra Streisand.  Those floating it know full well that way many more good guys than bad guys are listening, and it’s a net positive for law enforcement.

No, the real reason for this censorship, let’s just call it what it is, is that departments’ brass, i.e. politicians with badges, don’t want an official route for people to find out how much more violent crime there is in their cities than they officially report.  Because one of the only practical ways to reduce violent crime these days is to pretend it doesn’t exist.

Notice the salary bump brings the SLPD “closer” to the pay scales of surrounding agencies. Not equal to them, and certainly not more than them.

As a certain someone you all know predicted.

Jaded

Waterloo

The story.

It says he’s SLPD and lives in Waterloo.  Quite a few years ago, the SLPD eliminated the residency rule for officers with a certain number of years on the force, as long as they lived within a certain mile range distance from the city.  And while Waterloo seems like it’s in the middle of nowhere, it’s not that far away.

Which means that my new favorite SLPD cop has quite a few years of tenure.  Which, of course, you’d also have to deduce from his Lieutenant rank.  And, believe me, anyone, especially white, who is a St. Louis City cop for long enough is going to get that jaded, even if he or she (or xe or it) didn’t start out that way.

Besides, didn’t Raj Chetty tell us that the corn fields between Waterloo and Red Bud are where black kids from the jurisdiction that Lt. Foster patrols should really be raised in order to have better life outcomes?

Body Worn Cams Vindicate White Sheriff’s Deputy, Prove Dinduette a Liar

Lawrenceville, Virginia

Remember the point I make here often, about how, in spite of their initial political gluttony for body cams, the other side is now in the process of doing a 180 and starting to demand no body cams.  This is one reason why.

It’s also obvious what she was up to:  She tried to bait the deputy into losing his cool, doing something brash, then ghetto lottery lawsuit.  When he didn’t lose his cool, she went home and made some lie-filled video, which the deputy’s own video footage refuted.

NOTE:  I embedded the YT video, but the Goolag yanked it, so all you get is a direct news link.

The Chicongo Beat

Chicago

ATF is hanging around bell curve city Chicago to find Federal gun crime violations to nail dindus with, because the Illinois criminal justice system is so weak and its state prisons already overcrowded. For instance, someone convicted of murder two in Illinois is unlikely to spend more than a single digit number of years in prison even if he’s sentenced to much more.

It’s for the same reason why the Feds have been using the Hobbs Act to scoop up garden variety armed robbers of establishments in Illinois into the Federal system.

Carjacking victim: City police took 2 hours to respond

A carjacking victim is critical of the St. Louis Police Department after she said it took nearly two hours for an officer to arrive and take a police report.

Angela Hutchinson told News 4, “I could have got killed, I could have got shot.”

Saturday night around 7 p.m. Hutchinson said she parked her car on Pershing Avenue, near the rear entrance to Kayak’s Coffee, when four young adults approached her and demanded the keys to her 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee. She said one of them demanded her cellphone and tried to punch her.

“I was in tears, I mean I was, it was a very terrifying situation,” she said.

Hutchinson said it was nearly two hours later when an officer finally met her to file a report and begin the investigation.

“He apologized and said you know what mam I’m really sorry but unfortunately we don’t have enough police officers in the city of St. Louis to cover what’s going on and it was a busy night tonight an basically he said we had more important things going on,” Hutchinson said.

Yeah, like all the murders.

Someone already e-mailed this to me, asking me if this makes me walk back my contention that the number of cops in a given jurisdiction (over a relevant range of reality) makes virtually no difference.

Nothing of this news refutes my contention. In a normal scenario, the cops would have been there in a few minutes. But in either case, the carjacking still would have happened. The root cause of the carjacking happening isn’t too few cops, but too many dindus.

The city of St. Louis has one of the highest ratio of patrol officers to total civilian population around.

The story that sits at the intersectionality of the Wicked Racial Profiling Trick and They All Look Alike.

Oh boy.  I see where this is going.

Remember this?

Such as it is, we get “NAACP” in the third paragraph.

I had predicted not long after the official demand for cop body cams that the official demanders would do a 180 within ten years, and as it turned out, it didn’t even take three.  Now, to the extent there’s any enthusiasm left for body cams in the civil rights alphabet gang, this will totally end it.

Quarter Century On

Waco, Texas

Hits the nail:

Baylor professor Pitts, who was familiar with the Branch Davidians before the raid, said questions remain about whether the ATF — while seeking a budget renewal — saw the sect as a nice target “for a decisive kind of show.”

At that time, there was a very serious possibility that the ATF as a Federal law enforcement agency would be eliminated and its functionality folded into the FBI.  In the early 1990s, the ATF desperately tried to find reasons to justify its continued existence, and among those reasons was a very significantly black central Texas religious cult.

The BDs were/are basically Scientologists without the Tom Cruise.  But the ATF wasn’t going to incinerate the Scientologists, because too many important people belong to it, including the guy who flew jets around and beat the Soviets in a dogfight, all in a movie.  You can’t incinerate that kind of hero!

Back to the point, the love of money is the root of all evil.  You know, muh money, muh jobs, muh pensions, muh annual budget allotment.

Look Innocent, The Deputy Chief Is Watching

Downtown West

4:

Changes coming to St. Louis Police Department starting Monday

Changes are coming to the St. Louis Police Department in an effort to bring down crime numbers as police step up patrols in some of the more troubled neighborhoods.

Monday, deputy chiefs will be moved out of the downtown St. Louis headquarters and into the patrol divisions they oversee. Police Chief John Hayden said the move will allow deputy chiefs to be more accessible to officers and the citizens they serve.

That does it. The deputy chiefs will be moving from one building to others. That and that alone will make the dindus knock it off.

Chief Hayden also told News 4 he is continuing to focus on “Hayden’s Rectangle,” an area of St. Louis with some of the highest crime. The chief told News 4 there will be more officers and additional cameras in the area. He also said there is evidence his plan is working, with violent crime down 20 percent in the rectangle.

Hayden’s Rectangle, aka the Dindu Box.

More cops and cams do well enough, but the weak link is on the northeast corner of Tucker and Market. The Circuit Attorney these days is too busy trying to make an extortion case based on a non-existent video.

The Police Chief said the department needs 130 more officers to be fully staffed.

Well, Proposition P should cure all that. Unless it never was meant to do so.

WARNING:  RED PILL DISPENSATION AHEAD

There’s a lot to read, but I can net out the bullet points:

County Browns hired Asymmetric to train its officers in what the NAACP, Eric “My People” Holder, BLM, SJWs, Ferguson Commission, et al. want:  De-escalation training.  In order to get the cops used to what they will inevitably encounter when dealing with the kind of people that one must inevitably deal with in a situation where de-escalation is politically a good idea, the trainers are de-pussifying the cops’ ears by yelling words at them that the kinds of civilians they’ll encounter typically yell at each other, and increasingly, use to refer to adult men of any race.  I’ll give you a hint:  It starts with an “N,” and could be the six-letter variety that ends with “R” or the five-letter variety that ends with “A.”

Nontroversy, nothingburger.

Now, you see?  That red pill was easy to swallow.

And also, I gotz da red pillz, nigga.

Wheel of Stealers

Parkland, Florida

This is more interesting in the middle:

Broward County reformed its student discipline policies a few years ago to shrink the number of infractions punished under zero-tolerance rules. Such reforms typically reduce in-school arrests, suspensions, and expulsions. While the shooter was not part of the intervention-based program borne of these reforms, his serious, felonious conduct was shielded from the criminal justice system. It has been reported that the Broward Sheriff’s Office collaborated with the school district in a concerted effort to avoid law enforcement involvement in order to manufacture statistics for state and federal grants. Note also the accolades that followed the disciplinary shift.

With limited information, some we must ask what role the student discipline structure played in the horrific event that resulted in 17 dead. And we should question the validity of reforms in recent past.

Efforts focused primarily on arbitrary statistical reduction instead of improvements to public safety are bound to undermine otherwise prudent policies. A core responsibility of government is to keep communities safe, and this duty should not be placed behind political gain.

Zero-tolerance policies are designed to deter misbehavior by employing swift, uniform responses to broad categories of offenses, irrespective of details. While well intended, there exists ample evidence these policies fail to produce safer learning environments for kids and cost taxpayers millions in alternative programs. Moreover, the problem with these blanket policies is that they lack nuance. If you ask judges or prosecutors to relinquish discretion in favor of rigid punishment schemes, they balk — and for good reason. Not every case is the same, and there is considerable value in having the ability to assess situations on an individual basis.

Likewise, zero-tolerance policies in school systems disallow for exceptions or proportionality, leading to outcomes that defy common sense. Reasonable minds can agree that punishing a 12-year-old girl for saving a classmate’s life by letting her borrow an inhaler is simply unjust, and suspending an exemplary student for seven weeks due to a theater prop sword found in the back of a car is nonsensical. This is why discretionary decision-making, coupled with a variety of disciplinary tools, is more effective than broad, sweeping punishment.

According to the title of this, the issue is that BCSD/BSO/BHO joining forces to eliminate discipline greased the skids for nutbar.  Spoiler alert:  Yes.

But there’s a more interesting issue afoot here.

Read closely, and what we seem to have is pursuing two undesirable wildly extreme paradigms, both of which are enacted in reaction to the inevitable outrages of the other. In contrast, there seems to be fierce resistance against moderate rationality.

And I happen to think the answer to the paradox of the “virgin-whore complex” of the pincher movement of the zero discipline zero tolerance coalition against moderate rationality has two discrete end games:  One, to feed the SJW/equity wackadoodles (reducing NAM suspensions, in order to keep wild feral NAM students off the streets for at least seven hours a day five days a week for the benefit of nearby business owners and residents, and to increase schools’ per capita per diem student attendance reimbursements), and two, to satisfy the insurance lobby.  Plain words, there’s no monied constituency behind moderate rationality.

But Not Really

Except what will be happening here isn’t really mentoring.

I point you back to this month and a half old post of mine bouncing off an earlier video of someone else’s.

Round and Round Tony Goes

City Hall

Is that what he’s upset about?

The thing that we should be upset about is that Prop 1 was sold as almost purely revenue raising for cops.

You may remember an item from my posting storm upon my return here that all these things relate to each other.

How in Sam Hill…

St. Charles

Not guilty.  This was his second trial, the first which resulted in a hung jury happened where the “incident” actually happened, in Audrain County.  This the second trial got moved to St. Charles County on a change of venue request from the defense.

From what I’ve read and heard, the case hinged on the question of whether Comerzan knew that a law enforcement officer was pursuing him, and as it turns out, the first jury could not agree unanimously on that question, and the second agreed unanimously that there was not evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that he did know.

But he did know he was going 105 on a motorcycle on a road which has a speed limit way less than that.  Even on the Missouri interstates with a maximum rural limit of 70, if you’re caught doing 105, you’re going to be taken in.

Why couldn’t his very excessive and dangerously high rate of speed by itself be used as some sort of affirmative evidence against him on some charge?

The Candy Man Can

Downtown West

I’m sure you’ve heard by now.

I don’t have any objection as such, but what I do roll my eyes over is the inference that little (black) kids don’t like the cops because the cops have never given them candy.  No, the reason little black kids tend not to like cops is because cops have the bad habit of arresting their older brothers for committing violent crimes.  And even when the SLPD starts handing out candy to little black kids, that still won’t make them like the cops, precisely because the cops would at the same time still be in the business of arresting their older brothers for committing violent crimes.

If the SLPD would just get out of the business of arresting people, then little black kids will like them a lot better, candy or no.

This mentions the Polar Cops truck, of which Paul Kersey has made much sport.  Remember, the Polar Cops truck was rolled out mid-2016, and it somehow wasn’t able to prevent the last half of that year and then all of last current year from being the worst stretch for murders and other violent crimes in the city since the early ’90s “bad ole days.”  And, because the cops have to start handing out candy, it doesn’t seem to have improved the SLPD’s PR vis-a-vis little black kids.

Look Just Up the Street

Benton Park;  Knoxville

Read all about it.

If the cops want a line on who did it, all they have to do is walk west a few blocks.

In related news, yesterday, TradWorker rallied on the campus of the University of Tennessee, and of course Profa showed up.  Instead of going after TradWorker, Profa chimped out at the cops.  This is hardly anything new — Modern day far left street activists have way more contempt for cops than the “fascists” they’re purportedly protesting.  The reason for that is something I alluded to in my link in the second sentence, and made more plainly obvious a long time ago.

Question:  Doesn’t Memphis have enough people to agitate for a $15 min-wage without having to import any more from a nearby city?  Remember, the last time Memphis brought some people in from out of town to help its black people protest, it didn’t turn out quite so well for someone in that entourage.  You know how that goes, happy James Earl Ray Day, as our sector says every third Monday in January.  Translating that snark into English, it means that without James Earl Ray, (ironically, a St. Louisan who followed MLK around while he was on the lam after breaking out of Jeff City), Martin Luther King would have been relatively forgotten today, the assassination made a martyr out of him which begat the national holiday.  As an aside, April 4 is the 50th anniversary of his untimely departure from this world, and next James Earl Ray Day next January would have been his 90th birthday, so prepare yourselves.

One other thing you have to remember is that hotels near airports in cities with plenty of blacks seem to be a chronic problem.

Pre-Planned Ambush?

Columbus, Ohio

This reads to me like there’s a chance that this could have been, or that’s what the detectives are thinking.

Here:

Morbitzer said officers Morelli and Joering responded to a 911 call at an apartment building just after 12:10 p.m. on Saturday. But as they arrived on the scene, they were immediately met with gunfire.

Before that:

Two police officers were fatally shot Saturday after responding to a 911 hang-up call at a home just outside of Columbus, Ohio.

Called 911, hung up, and then shot the cops as soon as they arrived.

If the suspect didn’t pre-plan this as an ambush, then he probably figured that he was going to do this at some point between the call and the arrival.

One more thing:  The Orange Crowned God-Emperor should realize that the suspect is extremely unlikely to be part of MS-13.

P-D:

Information fair brings together St. Louis police, residents

Sometimes, going into a police station can be intimidating.

IKR? Because it’s not just an ordinary building, it’s actually a portal to Hell full of the ghosts of eternally condemned souls.

So at the Information Fair held Saturday at the St. Louis headquarters of the NAACP…

Now we’re getting somewhere. I wonder if there’s a plausible through line between “NAACP” and “going to a police station can be intimidating.”

Citizen turnout for this first information fair was sparse at best…

Should’ve advertised free weave and Jordans. But then that would have put the undertow in the surrounding neighborhoods in conundrum, so much so that it could have solved that millennia-old irresistible force – immovable object paradox. With weave and Jordans being the former, the fear of being around cops (outstanding warrants) being the latter.  You know how that goes, stuck in the middle of the two equally strong gravity wells of bix nood and sheeeyt.
