This is pathetic. A man is clearly attacked and yet all the police officers in this case decide to do is threaten to arrest the victim? I too would consider legal action... Especially with video evidence.
It would appear from watching the video that the man was still threatening bodily harm in the presence of the officers. I certainly hope the city attorney referred to presses charges against the attacker with the “club”. That guy was clearly out of control...
America allowing the planned murder of the most
helpless for convenience is the sickening part.
“but who brought up the ACLU? Not me”
Well, there you have it. No one has supervised the ACLU, and so it is still in its rebellious adolescent phase, if not still in the “terrible twos,” even though it is physically much older.
At least, that’s what struck me when I read your comment. Somehow rings true, now that I think about it. A number of people who are way too young for hippiedom throwbacks fit that profile when you talk to them—still just angry with their parents. /irony
More about this un-Christiam language:
Christ is coming as the Lion of Judah this time. With fire and power. We, and I am guilty of this at times, who do not stand against insult and aggression actually agree tacitly with such attacks. There are consequences to inaction.
agreed.
Happens all the time....conservatives believe in 'law and order' and the system being our friend. IT IS NOT.
How long were the cops sitting across the street? Everything thing seemed ok, till the victims called the cops over.
For the scripture junkies in this thread, I thought I’d provide the following from my handle:
Deuteronomy 28:15-18 (NIV, paraphrased)
“However, if you do not obey the LORD your God and do not carefully follow all his commands and decrees I am giving you today, all these curses will come upon you and overtake you:
...The fruit of your womb will be cursed...”
And also Deuteronomy 28:43 (NIV, part of the same cursings)
“The alien who lives among you will rise above you higher and higher, but you will sink lower and lower.”
Interesting thoughts to consider. When George Washington was inaugerated he took the oath of office with his hand placed on Deuteronomy 28, which begins like this:
Deuteronomy 28:1 (NIV)
“If you fully obey the LORD your God and carefully follow all his commands I give you today, the LORD your God will set you high above all the nations on earth.”
A list of blessings for obeying God follow. How far have we fallen from the moral guidance we used to establish this nation? And at what cost?
I am just wondering, why did you ping me to your politically correct comment?
