Apparently the Fault lay not with the news station, but the NTSB. A summer intern at the NTSB provided the names. http://www.ntsb.gov/news/2013/130712.html

It actually aired. I imagine somebody is probably looking for a job this weekend. :lol:

No they just write them Truf!

No matter what your feelings are on the case, whether you think Zimmerman guilty or innocent, the actions of the DOJ are beyond the pale. The federal government is out of control and I fear it cannot be ever be brought back to rights.

I agree. I also feel the same way about the pinko commie republicans.

This is correct. Basically City of memphis tried another power play, Well, if we have to do inspections, why can't county. so they tried to make the county do it and basically the county said F you. and that is where we stand right now. Although i believe the city had a policy in place if you had a car the was like 2 years or newer, you got a pass. Oh, and for those in memphis, lets not forget about that "one time" wheel tax. I find it amazing what memphis is doing. They are not funding a school system anymore, they are not doing emissions any more, and guess what. Taxes are still going up....someone is getting paid off. Yeah, what some of these other folks are saying their tags run them makes me sick. $106 for my last set. At least it isn't Mississippi.

One of each on my Xterra.

And?......let them watch. I'll send a link to them so they can get a laugh.

If I understand local events correctly, right now there is no emission testing in Shelby County. Prior to the end of June it was only required by Memphis City residents and was funded by the city. They chose to end funding (cause we are broke) and turn it over to the county. Shelby county said "we don't want to pay for it either" and refused to take it over. Now it is up to the state and that looks like it will take at least 1-2 years to implement. Charlie Foxtrot as always.

As far as the policeman's behavior... Judging by modern standards and the current status quo of our culture, I would say that the policeman struck quite the good balance between checking out a potential threat and not violating citizens' rights. However, if you cut out the emotionality and flawed thinking regarding firearms in our culture for a moment, you start to remember that openly carrying a rifle strapped to the shoulder should not mean that you have criminal intent. In fact, some would view it that concealing a firearm would mean that you are more likely to have malicious intent because you plan to suddenly brandish and commit a crime. What I would love to see is a climate where the police don't stop someone open carrying a rifle at all. Short of that, it would be nice if it at least went like this: ] Officer: "Can I ask why you're carrying a rifle down the sidewalk, today?" Citizen: "I'm just exercising my right to bear arms, sir." Officer: "Ah....One of those guys. Okay, just promise me one thing..." Citizen: "What's that?" Officer: "If zombies attack while you are here open carrying....Head shots.....Ammo is gonna be issue, so don't waste any on center mass." That would give the activist guys nothing to whine about and they would likely get bored of such videos. ;) There is a metric crap-ton of truth here.

My condolences.

Probably because it is irrelevant & diversionary? Not really, it goes to standing and credibility.

What a couple of flippin' morons. Kudos to the officer for remaining as calm as he did throughout the encounter. Damn hippies should face child abuse charges for wrapping the poor kid in tie dye. That's just wrong.

Just gonna leave this here. A legal analysis of Jay-Z's "99 Problems". http://slu.edu/Documents/law/Law Journal/Archives/LJ56-2_Mason_Article.pdf

I am one of those who has more than a couple of tattoos. I have several on my forearms but I understood when I got them that I would possibly have to cover them if need be for employment. As far as the expense, it can vary greatly and you can usually tell who spent a lot of money on their ink and who didn't with a quick glance. Good work isn't cheap, cheap work isn't good. I'm a fan of the art form and if given a choice, I am much more likely to spend $500 on a tattoo than a gun.

Nothing good can come from that. I know the boy is innocent, but it needs to go to the jury. This. A directed verdict would be a bad, bad, bad thing for everyone. A jury must return the not guilty verdict.

You could install a lo-pro gas block and then install a FSP with the cap etc at the mid length position.

:lol: think they realized they have landed in a shitstorm yet?

There are plenty of examples of municipalities paying out because of lawsuits arising from civil rights violations by officers in cases like this. Also, I wonder what the odds are about a defense attorney being able to use this video as evidence to impinge upon the reliability of a RCSO K9 alert signal when trying suppress evidence that followed on from such an alert? The false positive alert is pretty damn flagrant in this video.

With a shitbag officer who got but hurt the kid did no more than he was required to instead of bowing to his authoritah. The kid may have been looking for trouble, but Deputy Ross and those that assisted him (like the K9 handler) were under no obligation to provide it. They chose to act in an unprofessional and possibly illegal manner that has now opened up the RCSO to a possible lawsuit. If any of the residents of Rutherford County want to lay blame for their tax dollars having to defend a lawsuit and possibly pay out a judgement/settlement, then they have to look no further than Deputy Ross and his accomplices that night.

The OP found it on Reddit, I believe your tense may be wrong.;)

Can't you just smell all the freedom?

Nothing that anyone outside of the NSA would know about, at least not until it was too late...

Considering the militarization of police departments, how can one tell the difference betwixt the two anymore?
