Controlled Chaos Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 QUOTE(YASNY @ Mar 30, 2006 -> 05:41 AM) Must have been a republican cop. Nope...just a white racist cop harrassing her cause she's black. She clearly had every right to defend herself in this situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mplssoxfan Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Apparently, the Representative from Georgia wasn't in the habit of wearing the lapel pin which identifies her as a Representative. Stupid. Almost as stupid as some of the things she's said over the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIFWIW, since it's again coming from her. Probably correct. Also, she'll probably use the "the cop should have known who I was" argument. Still no excuse for punching the cop. Prediction: nothing will come of this, since the cop will be "convinced" to drop the charges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilMonkey Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 One word to describe her. b****. It is bad enough that the reps don't have to follow the rules like everyone else and go thru the detectors, but her attitude speaks volumes about the arrogance of our elected members of government (of all parties). If a cop asks you to stop, stop. If you ignore them, of course they are going to stop you, even if it includes grabbing you by the arm. They should have just tasered the b**** and shut her up for a few minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mplssoxfan Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 I don't have a problem with the Congresspeople not having to use the detectors, but it shouldn't be that hard to wear your ID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very simple...the same Congresswoman who punched the cop, as shown by the link above (which someone else posted, not me), also spent $1000 to fly Isaac Hayes in to a rally in her state, in a manner which almost certainly is either against House rules or just plain illegal...and the solution to that problem is the House Ethics committee, which has been a shambles since the Republicans tried to rewrite the rules of the thing and the Democrats lost interest in it.

She will be...and I think the fact that she decided to make this a racial issue has only hardened the resolve of the capitol police. Had she just come forward the next day and apologized, I bet they would have dropped it, but it's going to the grand jury, and it's what she deserves.
