In reply to the discussion: About that young lady the cop brutally attacked over the pool party.... [View all]JustAnotherGen
(33,037 posts)164. Don't waste your time
. . . Never ever believes a cop shooting someone or taking out their gun was wrong.
There is a group at DU that by the time they get done with the girl in the bikini -
Will actually believe (it's the way their minds workd) she was 300 pounds, 7 feet tall, wearing shit kicking boots, and armed with several guns and a few loosies - and some of those cigarellos.
You wait - it's coming.
That itty bitty girl in a bikini will be made into a foaming at the mouth violent thug!
There's one more - it's the N.H. person who ONLY is concerned with the criminal activities of minorities. Can't wait to see their post later! This shit reminds of how I used to laugh at the Benny Hill show!
