Spencer, I don't like our uncle as much as you. But I also have a problem with people destroying where I live and the cop cars I pay for through taxes... That cop will pay for what he has done. Why does there need to be a destructive protest?

(dis)pencer said...

actually he won't.
he resigned, so no disiplinary action from the force. plus he doesn't have to answer any questions.

he won't pay anything either, you/we will. 25mil is the lawsuit, and it ain't coming from him- it's tax $$.

the shooting happened on NYE, and there was no riot until the 6th, when the video came out.
i think the poeple show alot of restraint, and only flew off the handle when it was clear they were being lied to.
