The officer stopped in the area of Prairie Road and Jacobs Way around 6:20 p.m. after spotting a large number of people in the street. He said that as he approached he saw a woman punch a man in the face, and he could see that the woman had a can of pepper spray.I guess police should stop enforcing laws in the black community and allow criminals to do as they wish to other blacks.
The officer said that as he went to arrest the woman he was surrounded by a crowd that was voicing anti-police sentiments, including "We need to start killing these officers."
Police said the woman’s daughter was grabbing the officer while trying to free her mother. The officer said he tried to diffuse the situation by explaining to the crowd that the woman had just punched someone and was armed with pepper spray. Police said his words were ignored, and the struggle with the two people continued.
The older woman punched the officer in the face and grabbed him by the throat, according to the release.
The officer said he could see many in the crowd were recording the incident on their cellphones while some accused him of misconduct and using excessive force.
And why can't reporters figure out that diffuse is not defuse? I keep seeing this mistake everywhere by journalists.
A degree doesn't make you a journalist any more than listening to Texas Ritter makes you a cowboy.
ReplyDeletePolice are going to back off, letting the thugs run roughshod in the bad neighborhoods. Baltimore is a good example. Wailing and gnashing of teeth will be the result for those who run off the cops.
