Washington Post vis MSN ^ | Ju;y 28, 2019 | Hannah Knowles

The tribute by Italian police put the slain officer’s fate in numbers: 35 years old, married for just 43 days, dead of eight stab wounds inflicted in the wake of 100 euros demanded for a stolen bag.

As law enforcement mourns the Rome killing of Mario Cerciello Rega that has sparked outrage in Italy, more numbers have been added to the picture: two Americans arrested Friday on suspicion of aggravated murder and attempted extortion, according to the Carabinieri, the Italian military police force where Cerciello Rega served.

Cackle cackle, I’ll send that on to my friends in Rome. They’ve probably heard it before but worth a second giggle.

wasn't the American Taliban from Marin County?

Per Wikipedia, he was born in the D.C. area but the family moved to San Anselmo, CA (Marin Co.) when he was 10.

My beloved told me of an incident where the German Police caught US military men raping a young girl.

Long story short, the dead US military were delivered to the base they were assigned. Once the situation was explained the Base Commander did not raise any stink. Guess he didn’t want it out that US soldiers were attacking German citizens.

I asked him if it really happened and he said from what he saw over there it wouldn’t have surprised him. Back then they were not worried about being politically correct.

Of course that was decades ago, when the Germans still had a backbone. So sad to see they’ve fallen short...

Well, it depends. If you are a British hooligan, the Polizei will still crack skulls. Now islamists is a different story...

After WWI the German government fought through the media US and French occupation, making outrageous articles about negroes and French Morrocan soldiers raping blond German women... the Kaiser resorting to leftists to win the war against Russia and defy occupation is one of the fruits they are still reaping...

This is a strange one. The only sure things here are that these two are not MAGA material, and there are so many good reasons not to do drugs. They do look kind of gay, but hey, the Bay Area. What I seriously wonder about is if there is some kind of police corruption here, as in police running drugs or taking a cut.

He was one of the good guys; an undercover officer appearing to sell drugs (actually just white powder) in order to catch offenders. The same kind of stings are routinely done in the U.S.

I will relate to you a story from my own unit outside Nuremberg in the late 70s. A soldier in our unit was resisting arrest in a Nuremberg night club and the polizei broke his arm trying to subdue him. No one complained or said a word about their tactics. The soldier did get thrown out of the Army however, once his arm healed.
