      Nope, they were kind enough to call our home phone at 1:00 AM with those instructions.

      Most of the action last night, including the shooting of a protester and the looting was right across the street from my office.

      Parrot Head, on the other hand, works a mile or two away so if he stays home he is just goldbricking.

            No kidding. I guess it is important to get how others feel though and so that is why it is worthwhile to post articles from a shit (my opinion not stated as fact) publication like Solon.

                    Maybe not for you, but I will decide if it is for me or not. For instance, your feeling of hatred for what Trump would do to America has been very helpful to me.

                      I don't hate Trump. I just hate what he seems to want to do to America.

                        I changed my post to more accurately reflect your stated feelings. My apologies.

                        • The black police officer who shot the man in Charlotte was wearing plain clothes. I'm wondering if the guy who was killed ran out of his car with the gun because he saw a man in plain clothes approaching him with a gun.

                          Supposedly, the police department has a video of what happened and the guy came out of his car with a gun.

                          • This is an insane article. "It doesn't matter that the cop who shot Scott was black because the job of the police is to oppress black people."

                            Look at the police chiefs for the 30 largest cities in the country, if half of them aren't black or Latino, I'd be surprised. Black people are the mayors and occupy significant positions in these city governments, they're not all in on a conspiracy to kill black people.

                              • This Charlotte case and the protests just show what a powder keg there is over police actions in the country right now.

                                I mean this is a guy who had a gun in his hand, refused to drop it, and was shot by a black police officer. Gotta say from that standpoint I don't see the reason for the outrage.

                                And although I'm glad the officer in Tulsa is being charged I think her defense will have a pretty good case -- guy isn't following commands and is going back to his car and about to reach into door or window perhaps. Should have been tased instead of shot though clearly.
