Was there a gun? The only thing I've seen mentioned was a knife
Idk. But he was ignoring commands and reaching into his car. At that point you can’t wait until a bullet is coming at you to determine if he has a gun.

I'm told there was. The investigation will be out, and it won't be long. I was told that it's a matter of weeks, if not days.

When (not if) the shooting is announced as justified... Kenosha will be blown up.

We are in Northpoint Marina now, and several more are joining today. The harbormaster here has been kind, giving us a deal for $1/foot/day rather than the standard $1.25. He is doing this for all Kenosha refugees.

He said he expects 300 more from Kenosha by tomorrow. Kenosha holds 550 boats. So there may be 100 or so left there.

No economic impacts at all here. Nothing to see.

This harbor still sucks though. Nothing changed since we all left it back in 2005. Of course, it is owned by the State of Illinois, so... yeah. It sucks.

I read some study along time ago noting that poorer people at that time were far more likely to have serious lead exposure than wealthier folks, from gasoline and from paint.  It suggested there had been a measurable increase in IQ after lead paint was abated.
There's a significant body of work that points a lot of societal ills at the feet of lead, although more specifically leaded gasoline than paint. As emissions grew up into the late 70s of leaded gasoline, the amount of lead in topsoil grew with it. Then as it was phased out, the lead concentrations in soil slowly decreased. 

Taking in a roughly 18-year lag (the belief is that the ill effects are due to early childhood exposure) between the exposure and the prime ages to commit violent crimes, violent crime was on a significant upward trend right about until the... Early-mid 1990s. And it's been dropping ever since with no really coherent explanation.

Lead might very well be that explanation.

I'd rather send him a resignation letter to sign.

No chance in hell he gets a second term. The recall talks have already started.

His resignation won't help you, you're now "Florida Man." 


Can't wait to read a news article about you chasing a gator on a moped or somesuch. :)

So, being born in 1971, I'm probably very close to the peak of this lead-induced malady?

Suddenly a lot more makes sense... :)

Right, you can grab him or taze him or 13 other things besides turning his BACK into swiss cheese.

But I'm wrong.

Some of the most racist speech I see on TV comes from Black people

Hell in some universities there even a move to have all black dorms

Look on the channel guide on your cable system and you'll see a channel named BET which is Black Entertainment Television

what if there was a WET no way that would be allowed and it shouldnt be


You're so woefully lost.   I mean Jesus Christ.

The tazed him four times. They had him on the ground and he escaped. The officer grabbed him by the shirt as he was going into his car. He was repeatedly told to stand down. He was told to drop his knife.

There was a loaded gun under his seat. (and the three kids in the car blah blah blah)

What would YOU have done? Stand there and get shot?
Sounds like shitty policing to me.  


How is it that multiple cops have so much trouble subduing these individuals?  It's as if they're not good at it or something.

Yes, you are wrong.

Try paying attention to my posts, particularly to those from this morning. The cops did all you are suggesting, and MORE.

The guy was hopped up on drugs. Have you ever tried to subdue a meth head? It was two cops, by the way.
