Cops can steal, so long as they give back later

Your parents paid for your education, right?

Congrats on the newspaper link. Is this guy a cop who is also in (or was in) a biker gang? Because in your article, Kurt Angle testifies that he is not, nor has ever been, a Concord PD officer but for the rest of the entry you refer to him as a cop. I was really tired when I skimmed it last night, though, sorry. And the guy who killed himself was president of the "club" but you have a photo of him in what looks like a cop uniform? I need some "tl;dr" tags because this kind of bounced around on me for a bit. I gather some guys stole a guy's vest and some cops protected the thieves, for whatever reason-- Do these guys donate to the police department or something? What's their relationship? And why did the shop-keeper have the vest? Just to scramble the patches around to tell them he doesn't like them? What's his relationship with them? Was he a victim prior to this? What am I doing with my morning?

Thanks for trying to figure out what's in the article, Ritt. The motorcycle club/gang is made up of former and current police. The top of their hierarchy in the state of NH committed a robbery of this guy's store. Only, instead of it being called robbery (five guys thuggishly blocking the storeowner and taking a vest, walking off threatening to kick his ass), the two guys who physically handled the vest were given class B misdemeanor theft charges, the lowest level charge you could get. One killed himself, the other denied responsibility for just 'doing what the group did'.

All but one of the participants were cops, the door man was not a cop, but was in the gang somehow as an associate or something. They were from towns that were not Concord, where the robbery took place. Concord police investigated it and testified for the prosecution.

The two biggest newspapers in the state wrote editorials denouncing the case. For people who had clicked the link, they may have seen that as the previous day's entry.

It's incredibly rare that two major newspapers from opposite ends of the political spectrum would both pen harsh critiques of a legal ruling. I suppose that if you're an overweight, self-loathing person of a discriminated against orientation who locksteps with a braindead alpha on the darker reaches of the internet, you're just too cool to be into that whole independent media thing.

The fact that this trial was recorded is historically significant, but that's cool if you sit on your ass all day and trash the work others do. Flashy pictures are so mental stimulating and funny!

As far as I know, he was never suspended or penalized for this, and he is still employed as a sergeant in the town of Hill. You can see his chief, young guy, hug him after the verdict, then get all nervous after looking at the camera. I've made note to avoid that town.

Your revolution is over, Tuffy. Condolences, the bums lost. My advice to you is to join your ideological generation on the way out.

Have they looked into a refund?
