Tell your therapist all about it.
Scumbag. I hope many in your family commit suicide from mental health issues. I’ll laugh my backside off at you.
Now I love those cowboys, I love their gold
Love my uncle, God rest his soul
Taught me good, Lord, taught me all I know
Taught me so well, that I grabbed that gold
I left his dead ass there by the side of the road, yeah

He may be best remembered by some for the Acoma Massacre which refers to the punitive expedition by Spanish conquistadors at Acoma Pueblo in January 1599 that resulted in the deaths of around 500 Acoma men killed in a three-day battle, along with 300 women and children. Of the remaining Acoma who survived the attack, many were sentenced to 20-year enslavement and 24 suffered amputations.
Not sure the additional detail explains why in 2020 anyone, let alone people with guns should feel an affinity for this character? The only thing clear is the Pueblo Indians really did not care for him. Hispanics settlers, now American citizens like this guy, feel remembering him with multiple statues is important? The descendant Hispanic settlers are now members of right wing militia?

I am sure it will become clear over the next couple days. Just a strange case.

Is that you secretly begging to limit discussion, stifle speech?

I very clearly stated that if folks want to make comments on that then be prepared for the lack of a filter.

Was that before or after he kicked the man he just shot?

Let me guess, his defense is going to be that he thought he tripped.

But back to the facts, do you really think his defense attorney can negate the kicking by arguing he told him to keep breathing? Good luck with that one.

Maybe there are some facts out there that haven’t been disclosed that are helpful to the cops, but they better get their PR machines moving quickly because today was devastating to them.
No jury's going to watch the entire body cam video, then convict Brosnan of anything.
Howard is making a fool of himself. He's already lost his star witness.
Is he up for re-election before he has to take this sham to a Grand Jury ?
Maybe the Mayor can bring in Mike Nifong to land this wounded turkey for her.
Maybe, maybe not. Depends on the jury. Standing on a guy who your partner just shot is not something that will go over well with any jury. That’s what his lawyer will tell him. That’s why he will cut a deal.

I don't know, that's why I asked. You seem to be an expert on this case already.

Making fun of someone working through their issues to be a better father to their young children is proper however?

Cradle is defending all police behavior because his nephew is in pain (that’s what it is I’ve come to learn) why don’t we let folks mock him?

Let me tell you how hard it is when you’re in the 30s, working 80+ hour weeks for a decade or more, have come a long way but feel like you can’t take a minute for yourself or you’ll lose everything because you never had it before, becoming physically ill with ulcers and miserable all the time. The mask you use to pitch business to clients and execute with colleagues every day becomes who you are. Feel fraudulent to yourself and that you’re failing your young children. The evening bourbon ends up being two, three finger drinks. That’s just a bite from the appetizer section of what it is to be where I got to and I’m lucky I didn’t hurt myself a lot worse. At one point taking out an extra $1mm term life policy not because is intentionally do anything but afraid of what situation I might end up in.

The guy probably had a run in with the law before. So the cop should have been justified in killing him. Old Salt believes he was railroaded....

I reread Old Salt’s posts and there’s nothing in them offensive in nature.i think Far is seeing something there that no one else possibly could.

The reactions by the left though....why?

I opened up my own situation in response to Cradles nephew, a place 5-10yrs who I wouldn’t have given two thoughts about and this cat wants to immediately go there. Same person putting ugly surnames to 20 something women regularly. And put out there that if folks wanted to comment on it negatively they’d get the unfiltered response. It was all there plain as day.

But sure conjecture away.

Rolfe's life as a COP is over. At very best he will end up getting off criminal charges, will lose any civil trial. Outside of West Bumf*ck he won't work as a COP again, and probably not even there. His case will contribute to the legal changes coming.
