  1. Somebody wrote fairly recently that "...some black lives matter more than others." I think we're seeing this in action. There's no way to stir up the masses with this in order to make political hay, so, crickets.

  2. Nate said "...this is what happens when you hire criminals and give them guns." Leaving aside the historical fact that NOPD is, or has been one of, if not THE most corrupt law enforcement agency in the country for many decades, there are many people who will argue that cops ARE criminals with badges and guns. In fact, that old saw goes like this: "What's the difference between a street criminal and a cop?" The cop has police powers, a badge and a gun." I heard that back in the '70s. The thing of it is, Simmons could have been injured or killed by a brick. I've seen it happen not 10 feet from where I was. She looked to be in uniform, which suggests to me that the perp was not only willing to try and injure what looked to be a cop, but anyone who got in his way. The only reason he didn't try to incapacitate her was a) she was armed, and b) there ware at least 2 others after his punk ass. I would argue that he posed a serious threat to the community at large. Criminals only escalate their behavior. My only issue with her is that she endangered the public by doing what she did. Pretty good shooting, however; 7/11 rounds at a moving, man-sized target that a lot of people would have a hard time hitting from that distance were it stationary. How many rounds did New York cops fire at a suspect some years ago, and hit everything BUT the alledged perp? Dozens of rounds fired. I can't remember for sure, but they hit buildings, cars, windows, maybe even a bystander or two. Dozens of rounds.
