POLITICAL PRISONERS: MILWAUKEE COUNTY SHERIFF CLARKE FREDDIE GRAY SAYS CHARGES ‘DUKE LACROSSE CASE ALL OVER AGAIN'



Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke (D) declared the charges brought against six police officers in the death of Freddie Gray “George Zimmerman and the Duke Lacrosse case all over again” and said “these cops are political prisoners,” offered up as human sacrifices, thrown like red meat to an angry mob” on Friday’s “Your World with Neil Cavuto” on the Fox News Channel.

Clarke said of the charges, “it’s a miscarriage of justice. This neophyte prosecutor stood up there and made a political statement, Neil, and I say that because she’s chanting or voicing some of the chants from this angry mob. Her job is to tune that out. She said, I hear the voices. She’s not supposed to hear anything as she reviews this case that is not consistent with the rule of law and our system of justice. Look, I’m an experienced and a veteran homicide detective. I’ve had — I’ve participated in charging conferences. There is no way I have ever gotten a criminal charge within 24 hours after taking over all the reports and evidence to a prosecutor. A prosecutor who is thorough needs several days to sift through hundreds of pages of reports. They usually want to interview some of the witnesses themselves, in person, and they have to sift through all of the evidence, piece by piece, and they have to wait for some of the forensics evidence to conclude, to come back and that’s why I say on a minimum, three to four days. She just got this case yesterday. This is political activism. She’ll never prove this beyond a reasonable doubt, and I’m not going to silently stand by and watch my brother officers, offered up as human sacrifices, thrown like red meat to an angry mob, just to appease this angry mob.” And that “she rushed this thing through.”

After his interview was cut off to carry a Fraternal Order of Police press conference live, he continued, “she knows she’s not going to be able to prove these charges beyond a reasonable doubt. This is George Zimmerman and the Duke Lacrosse case all over again. A politically active district attorney or state’s attorney, you can tell the emotion in her voice, she almost did this with glee. And that’s why I believe, like they [the FOP] do…she needs to remove herself from the case. I hope the state’s attorney general gets involved in this, and sees the error of her ways. The smart thing for her to do is recuse herself and name a special prosecutor.”

Why does it bother you people that some people may have a differing opinion on things?

Where does all this viciousness come from?

Say something of value!

Make your words count.

Like "pigs" and stuff, with its attached value and non-vicious objectivity? I'll work on it, you social justice warrior, you.

In my case, the pigs earned my utmost disrespect one encounter at a time.

It isn't just one or two, it's multiple times.

LOL

WTF does a local-level MILWAUKEE COUNTY SHERIFF matter on what the Baltimore city brass does?

I'm guessing he's a repub that ran on "handle it at the state level, keep the fed govt and obama out of it", but has to give his 2 cents to a friggin CITY issue, half a country away?   lol red meat for the base.   


His defense of zimmerman - who took smiling pics at the gun factory which produced the gun he used to kill a 17 year old... already we know Sheriff isn't right in the head.

[Slapper]

They say, if you keep having bad roomates or bad relationships, maybe it's not them

Of course, white guy with super-duper job, nice house in a kick-ass county (very few blacks by the way,) plenty of money in the bank and well-dressed/groomed all the time... I can see how they would see me as a potential suspect.

It's my fault.

Like I said, only good pig is a dead pig.

Of course, couldn't be more obvious. Lifetime of antisocial misbehavior, but it's always them.

Adorable.

It sounds as if slapper is the common denominator.

the article seems to indicate he is a Democrat ... David Clarke (D)

He runs as a democrat just to prove that for sheriff it shouldn't matter if you are dem or repub.

[240 is Back]

Yep... he shuld be worried about local policy... not ranting about how george zimmerman was persecuted.

he wants to get re-elected and learned he can energize his base by talking about national issues he has zero influence upon.  He gets national news so he's happy. 

[The Ugly]

He runs as a democrat just to prove that for sheriff it shouldn't matter if you are dem or repub.

And the Dems hate him for it.

Well done, Sheriff.

Not a bad little tactic!

CVS Will Rebuild 2 Stores in Baltimore


Daniella Silva / NBC News 7:47 PM ET

Pharmacy giant CVS Health announced Wednesday it will rebuild two store locations badly burned during protests in Baltimore last week in response to the death of Freddie Gray.

“We have a long history of serving inner city communities and we are 100 percent committed to serving our patients and customers in Baltimore,” CEO Larry Merlo said in a statement released Thursday. The company did not release a timeline for rebuilding, but said they were “working diligently to make it as soon as possible.”

You don't have to believe me but... so far civilians in two towns in the US have declared hostilities toward their police departments.

No I'm not saying otherwise. I personally have no experience with American police officers but I'm saying that if they're targeting you, they do so for a reason. You clearly hold animosity towards police officers so perhaps that'll show up in your dealings with them. They're just human. If I'm around a bunch of people with hostilities towards me, I'd keep an eye on them too.

No, I've never shows hostility toward them at all. I'm always compliant.

I think most of it is just shit luck my part.

Trust me as long as you behave yourself like I do the police never even look twice in your direction.  If they are targeting  you then you are doing something wrong or dressing like a thug or homeless bum.

Baltimore Police Officer Bites Man’s Testicles In Ballsy Cinco De Mayo Attack

So you celebrate Cinco de Mayo because you’re a red-blooded American who has pride in the fact that an underdog Mexican army marched to victory over French forces at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862. You head on over to your favorite Mexican-themed restaurant, or Looney’s Pub which is an Irish-style bar in this circumstance, and you proceed to eat your weight in enchiladas verdes and get shitfaced on $2 cervezas. That’s when some unpatriotic tool who can’t handle a few shots of tequila reposado gets up and attacks you by gnawing your testicles. And that’s exactly how you ruin the cherished American holiday of Cinco de Mayo.

This Cinco de Mayo party was gorishly disrupted on Tuesday night when Anne Arundel County police officer Michael Flaig, 31, attacked a man. Allegedly, the man was assaulted by two men, one of whom, Flaig, bit his testicles in the alley behind Looney’s Pub. There’s no good place to have your nuts chomped off, but in an alleyway has got to be one of the worst and probably least sanitary.

A police investigation learned that Flaig and another man jumped the victim outside the bar after the victim confronted Flaig about his touching his female friend and roommate. This guy wanted to get in this woman’s pants soooo badly that he nibbled on some other dude’s bollocks to show his unwavering allegiance to her. That’s nuts!

Flaig was found by police on the second floor of the bar with ball blood stains on his shirt and appeared inebriated. Flaig was placed under arrest for ballsy attack. Cinco de Mayo, more like Cero de Huevos.

Flaig is being charged with second-degree assault.

On Wednesday, Anne Arundel County police released the following statement:


“On May 5, 2015, the Anne Arundel County Police Department was informed by investigators with the Baltimore Police Department that a member of our agency was arrested. We have learned that Corporal Michael Flaig, a 10-year veteran of the Anne Arundel County Police Department assigned to the Northern District, was arrested and charged with a second-degree assault and public intoxication after an altercation in the Canton area of Baltimore.

The Baltimore Police Department is investigating this matter and any further inquiries as to the circumstances of this arrest should be directed to them. The officer’s police powers have been suspended and he has been placed on paid administrative duties.”

As if the Baltimore police P.R. department doesn’t have enough on it’s plate right now.
