If Ben Crump is on the scene you can be sure things are about to go sideways. His hustle is always the same script with the same outrage.

Wow either this must be really bad or this department is woke. Because from what I am seeing most pd’s couldn’t afford to lose 5 officers. After seeing the officers.. this may cause a glitch in the matrix.

Looks like all five officers are black. That might help temper the “outrage”.

Memphis is a ****hole city run by democrats and has been for years. That clearly doesn't mean anyone should be treated unfairly. I'm not sure who the target of the anger will be--it's people they voted for and the type of people they've been elected for years running that ****hole.

That isn't why people riot. Riot = looting. Looting = getting what they want for free all while calling it justified outrage.

Those store owners should feel good about their charitable contribution to the impoverished community. Looting is redistribution don't ya know. We've been told that it's no biggie. The insurance companies will reimburse the store owners anyway.

I remember Reading about the people who lost their stores after many riots. They lost everything trying to serve their community and the thanks they get is to be burned out or looted with no compensation.
One that stuck out to me was the retired fireman from Minneapolis who took all his saving to build a bar & grill that was looted and burnt to the ground. His insurance would not cover it because of the riot or war clause.
If anyone needed compensation he, and people like him did.

Firefighter spends life savings to open Minneapolis sports bar, which gets burned down during riots

"While rioters looted and destroyed property under the premise of injustices against the black community, a black family’s hard work was crushed."

People responded to his loss and donated over 1 million. That's America.

No... they were BLUE.

Cops are all blue, therefore by extension, white supremist.

I like Memphis. In parts. In the daytime.

Memphis is also a great place to get stabbed if you don't pay attention to when/where/who. There is a strong culture of violence there. I would not be shocked at riots, I would not be shocked at a shrug and "that's the way things are" response.

Crump will do his best to keep that from happening.

I am sure Soros funded groups are on call, give them a minute.

You may think this is funny but Elvis was the one that kept Memphis straightened out. When he died it just went down hill.

My company does work in Memphis from time to time. I'm not saying they have a crime problem, but while my guy was sitting in his truck doing paperwork on the CCTV system he just serviced, a dude actually had the balls to ask him outright "So how much could I get for one of them security cameras at a pawn shop?"

He learned quickly to get in, do his work, and get out. Worry about the paperwork a few miles up the road.

And he was smart enough to say "nothing. They only work on the system here. Take it anywhere else and it wont work. "

Can we get Kut a pass for this thread only? I don’t think there’s enough popcorn…

 

[Cameramonkey]

Yeah, Blue aka Uncle Toms. Black officers are just as bad as white ones according to those evil groups. Yes, I used the correct word.
