  1. IMO the city and MPD drug their feet on this incident. The local news reported the story shortly after it happened. The next day the deceased family was raising hell that he had been put in the hospital with serious injuries. Three days later the young man dies. The DA rightfully referred the investigation to TBI. Days later police announced that they would be holding an administrative hearing the following week, which was held on Friday. The incident was discussed on national news earlier in the week. The feds got involved. The entire time people are already suspecting an attempted cover up. If the city and the cops wanted to avoid suspicion, they should have immediately released the video and suspended the officers pending investigation. They allowed rumors about misconduct/cover up to grow wings.
  2. The SP5 pistol is imported without a brace. If one wanted to SBR the SP5 they could easily bring it into 922r compliance by switching out five parts. I own two. One is a registered SBR with a Lee Sporting complete AR style trigger group featuring a Geissele trigger and the other will remain a pistol without a brace as it was imported.
  3. Once Ben Crump signed on with the family, that told me everything I needed to know about the seriousness of this case. Dude is a world class ambulance chaser, and he only signs on to slam dunk cases that he can use to agitate the black community while forcing governments into huge settlements.
  4. They’re cops. Their skin color doesn’t matter. Many blacks believe they’re treated worse by black cops, especially the male cops. If there are protest, the police would be smart to create a buffer zone similar to what Rawlings did several years ago and let it fizzle out. If the cops do anything that’s perceived as aggression that’s going to set it off. Lots of idiots looking for a reason to act out and destroy property.
  5. I’m hearing local law enforcement is preparing for unrest after the video is released next week. It can probably be avoided if charges are filled prior to the video release. Secondly, I understand the need for the Scorpion unit, but car jackers disguised as cops are a regular occurrence in Memphis. Young people I’ve discussed this with are more likely to run if it’s an unmarked car or keep driving while calling 911 to ask for a marked car. Both actions that may protect one from car jackers, but will definitely piss the undercover cops off. It’s a bad situation. If those cops did what they are suspected of doing, I’d like to see them buried under the prison. This statement applies to any large city. Bad elements are more mobile than ever. Use to be our local criminals would mostly avoided the suburbs because of the high visibility of law enforcement. Now the criminals follow the easy opportunities regardless of the area. I’m scouring the country now looking for somewhere near a beach to safely settle down. I’m tired of being hyper vigilant just going out to dinner. These f’n kids today don’t care about anything. I never imagined I’d be saying those words. I’m getting old. Apparently he was beaten an tased while restrained. He arrived at the hospital in really bad shape and was unconscious and on dialysis when he died.
  6. It’s all about Congress and the courts. Breath easy ladies and gentlemen.
  7. I agree that liberals and crazy extreme right conservatives should both be able to own machine guns to defend themselves and I’m sober.
  8. The same thing will happen if they attempt to ban braces.
  9. My apologies for the long post. I think things are going just as they were designed. I don’t blame immigrants for still flocking to this country and I don’t blame the president for oil companies not using the already approved and available leases for oil. I see a country that only functions if it has an angry, divided and mostly poor working class. Neglected infrastructure, stagnant wages and an undereducated populace contribute to the success of this model. Don’t take this the wrong way, but this country has never been great. Compared to most countries, America is exceptional, but never great. I say America has never been great based upon the fact that every generation of Americans has had to deal with its own set of difficulties and no generation has existed without circumstances that one could look at and not say “this is the end of us.” Most people in this country proclaim themselves to be Christians, but the negativity combined with the doom and gloom from most people doesn’t bare witness to that claim. I’m a believer, and based upon my experiences, the good, the bad, everything happens for a reason and when it’s supposed to. This is our season. We can accept what is and move forward positively reflecting the behavior of the savior or we can wallow in negativity and what is will still occur. Based upon inflation, that’s my $2.69.
  10. You’re still a legend. Much respect.
  11. It’s a daily habit. TGO is a unique space on the Internet.
  12. Rolling blackouts are to our on the western side up to 30 minutes twice a day
  13. I’ve also heard that internet rumor. He can’t be that stupid. He’s under too much scrutiny.
  14. He’s reportedly sold out and made four point five million in the process. Good for him. Amazed at the suckers. Especially considering he was a year late to the game. He knows his base.
  15. Indeed
  16. Limited quantities only $99.00 Get them while they’re hot
  17. I can’t speak for the IRS’s intentions, but I would assume that most of their new hires are actually going to be working tax related issues. I’m still waiting on resolution of a 2020 tax issue. I filed and paid 2021 online to put the headache behind me. I wouldn’t read too much into the IRS supposedly arming their agents. With the exception of the bump stop, how many of these scare tactic internet rumors have been true over the last fifteen years?
  18. I don’t expect anything long term to come of this. I could be wrong. It wouldn’t be the first time. The cost of litigation or the cost millions of free tax stamps or the cost of jailing those who don’t comply is simply something the budget wouldn’t allow. That being said, I do fully expect the ATF to implement some rule change concerning braces before the end of the year, but I believe it will be rescinded before the April 2023 amnesty period ends. This opinion is worth what you paid for it. Good evening!
