This is how the City of Ferguson conducts business:
Ferguson, Missouri police once wrongly arrested a man, beat him, then charged him with destruction of property. What property? His blood got on the uniforms of the four officers involved in his beating:
“On and/or about the 20th day of Sept. 20, 2009 at or near 222 S. Florissant within the corporate limits of Ferguson, Missouri, the above named defendant did then and there unlawfully commit the offense of ‘property damage’ to wit did transfer blood to the uniform,” reads the charge sheet.
To make matters worse, they had the wrong man.
The booking officer had no other reason to hold Davis, who ended up in Ferguson only because he missed the exit for St. Charles and then pulled off the highway because the rain was so heavy he could not see to drive. The cop who had pulled up behind him must have run his license plate and assumed he was that other Henry Davis. Davis said the cop approached his vehicle, grabbed his cellphone from his hand, cuffed him and placed him in the back seat of the patrol car, without a word of explanation.
The police later said, in a civil court deposition, that there was no blood. And the camera recording the cell malfunctioned.
The contradictions between the complaint and the depositions apparently are what prompted the prosecutor to drop the “property damage” allegation. The prosecutor also dropped a felony charge of assault on an officer that had been lodged more than a year after the incident and shortly after Davis filed his civil suit.
This is from the/police charge sheet/: the above named defendant did then and there unlawfully commit the offense of ‘property damage’ to wit did transfer blood to the uniform
Actually, that article seems pretty measured. Talks a lot about increases in storm surge related incidents, increased costs from storm damage, droughts and water shortages in some areas. I don't see anywhere in there it's claiming that NYC will be knee deep in sea water in 2010, unless it's the result of a storm surge. Which is exactly what happened.
Indeed. Let us put Louie Gohmert, Michelle Bachmann and James Inhofe in charge of our global geoengineering efforts. They're highly respected members of House and Senate. What could possibly go wrong?
I remember the Tea Party. GG is very similar. A big bunch of know nothing babies screaming and pounding their fists on the table. Also, don't like women much.
Here's what you can't get through you thick skull. Her sex life is NONE OF YOUR FUCKING BUSINESS. I know you're upset because you figure, hell she was sleeping with everyone but she didn't sleep with me, but it doesn't work that way sparky.
It isn't a CRIME to sleep with other people while in a relationship and it isn't any of your business, you mouthbreating troll. That you lead with this abject stupidity makes anything else you have to say not woth bothering with.
A public trial instead of a secret proceeding.

And a prosecutor who comes from a family of police officers did not want a trial in this case. He got his desired result.
In 2010 there were 162,000 grand juries. Only 11 refused to hand down an indictment. The prosecutor got exactly what he desired.
This is /. You're been here before. What did you expect?
Ok, mischaracterizing troll is troll. I see.
You are rational. Rational does not do well at /.
Very bad sock puppetry. -5
Assertion, pulled out of your ass, with absolutely no supporting evidence.

Sometimes, I wonder if the percentage of slashdot population who really ought to be on medication is somewhat higher than the general population.
This is an assertion that is beyond idiotic.

I'm sure he'll conveniently ignore that. You should have added 'thanks for playing'
Fuck Uber.
It's patronage. But whatever it is, what it is NOT is an investment.
A kickstarter is financial backing, not investment. They are not the same thing.

Well said.
Why are you anonymous, coward?

Mention it where? In the review he didn't right. Back to redpill, PUA.
The story wasn't about her. Tip your fedora and head back to redpill.
Jesus, it's UBISOFT! How smart do you have to be to think that taking a wait and see approach is the right course with ANYTHING from Ubisoft???
