B-Man Posted August 23, 2020 Posted August 23, 2020 DEAR MAYOR FREY: On June 12, The 508 had some unruly people causing trouble outside of our restaurant’s front door. Along with our neighboring restaurant, we called the police at the 1st precinct to help break up the group so that customers would be allowed to get past them and into our place of business. In what I can only describe as utterly shocking, we were told by the police that there would be no police sent our way….and it was recommended that we simply close and lock our doors. Mind you, the 1st precinct is literally one block away from The 508. We had just been allowed to reopen our dining room two days prior, per the Governor’s reduced restrictions. Then, we’re told by City of Minneapolis police that they cannot help us and we should close up and lock our doors on that fateful Friday, June 12. That was it for us. If the City is going to provide that level of “support” to its loyal downtown businesses then we simply cannot operate safely. It was the next day that we decided to close the business forever. 1 1

Oregon protester convicted of arson in fire near police precinct gets probation, community service “I am sorry for my actions,” the suspect told a judge By Louis Casiano | Fox News An 18-year-old man accused of setting a fire outside a Portland Police Bureau precinct during a chaotic protest was sentenced Wednesday to three years probation and community service. Rollin Tristan Fodor pleaded guilty to first-degree arson in connection with the June 26 blaze. His lawyer told Multnomah County, Ore., Circuit Judge Amy Baggio that her client attended several protests and got "caught up" in the event. “I am sorry for my actions,” Fodor told Baggio during Wednesday's court hearing, according to The Oregonian. https://www.foxnews.com/us/portland-protester-convicted-of-arson-in-police-precinct-fire-gets-probation-community-service Edited August 27, 2020 by OldTimeAFLGuy 1

BuffaloHokie13 Posted August 27, 2020 Posted August 27, 2020 1 minute ago, Chef Jim said: Define harm. "Must result in bodily injury" It's allowing police wives to slap their husbands when its deserved. More seriously, it seems like if you were to throw a bottle at an officer it wouldn't be a felony unless you hit them pretty good with it. Should prevent some charges from being drummed up due to a bruised ego, but maybe I'm just optimistic. I'll be interested to hear our resident enforcers response to it. I get the feeling they won't care too much.

BuffaloHokie13 Posted August 27, 2020 Posted August 27, 2020 2 minutes ago, Chef Jim said: Assault and Battery does not require bodily injury. Read the summary Quote Eliminates the mandatory minimum term of confinement for an assault and battery committed against a judge; magistrate; law-enforcement officer; correctional officer; person directly involved in the care, treatment, or supervision of inmates; firefighter; or volunteer firefighter or any emergency medical services personnel and provides that such crime can no longer be committed as a simple assault and must result in a bodily injury.

SoCal Deek Posted August 27, 2020 Posted August 27, 2020 I listened to the press conference from two knuckle heads leading up the Wisconsin AG's office yesterday. They started off stating the FACTS of the case as they know them...perfect. Then, they went of the rails with a bunch of work non-sense about social unrest, systemic racism, and even brought the Milwaukee Bucks basketball team into it. Really? What's the one thing that ALL of these police shooting issues have in common that nobody wants to comment on? If you are stopped by the police and are politely asked to do something ....do it! Do not fight back. Do not try and get in your car. Get in the police car. Do not reach for the officer's weapon, lethal or not. Do not run away. Do not drive away. Are we clear? Sheeeeesh! 1

B-Man Posted August 29, 2020 Posted August 29, 2020 Defunding police would harm minority communities the most. I feel like all the riots and assaults and arson and looting have really undermined the case for defunding the police. Heck, I’m starting to rethink my opposition to police militarization, a view that I held before cities were being assaulted with organized, hostile, often armed, mobs.
