Are they asking you for help to pay their hotel bill, airline ticket, or medical expenses. If so, then you have a scammer. The gal you are talking to is a male not a female. It is a scam people.

I know the guidelines are 2-20 yrs, but how much time do people normally stay in for it. Say no body got hurt and it was a first offense, but he did go to prison.

Watching old cop shows from the 70's,they used to put the old Mars light on the roof of their car when responding to a call.Does anyone know when that was stopped and why it was stopped.Here in Chicago,the unmarked police cars have flashing headlights.

On a personal level, i feel if anybody hit any member of my family like that or people i love, i'd want to see them prosecuted. That's equivalent to a man beating his wife at home and saying it was 'only' a domestic. And i think it's generally accepted that men are stronger than women. Also she was surrounded by three other officers whilst being beaten.
I feel 'racism' may be one issue, in addition i think there is the perpetual issue of police who abuse there power, and police being accountable to themselves. No doubt that someone will wave the I.P.C.C flag at me but the persistent flagrant abuse of police power is a constant reminder of why some in society rebel against systematic repression, and merely mirror that chip on their shoulder, which in actuality, is more the position of their oppressors. I think it's scandalous that police officer was not prosecuted, and i think it's important that justice is seen to be done, and that clearly has not been the case in this instance.......

Given that the woman who was subdued with a few swift police punches has admited she was very drunk, has no recollection of the events in question, and according to more than one police officer was violent and even grabbed one of them in the nuts, why does she have the right to complain? Would this have even made the press if the woman was white?
It seems to me that irrespective of creed or colour people need to take responsibility for their own actions and cannot then blame the police if they are so violent it takes five officers and a dog to subdue her.

Last night I went with some friends to N.O. for Mardi Gras. First, we went to a parade in Metairie, La, and I thought everything would be cool for the rest of the night. After the parade we headed toward Bourbon Street. We tried to walk down the street; everything seemed cool at first, but someone started pushing the crowd in one direction; as a result, my friends and I were separated. After about five minutes, we were reunited with each other, but this incident paled in comparison to the subsequent incident.

As my friends and I were walking down a street off of Bourbon, a cop car comes flying a thousand miles per hour down the street, so I told my friends to get out of the way so they would not get hit. About two minutes later, this man (who is dressed in street clothing) approaches me aiming a gun at my chest. I started shouting to the policeman behind him, but the man who approached me tells me that he’s a cop. The cops escort my friends and I to the police car, while I am constantly and angrily shouting, “I did not do anything.” When we arrived at the police car, I had to spread my legs and place my hands on the car so I could be searched. Next, I was placed in cuffs because I was too “jumpy.” We asked the cops to enlighten us of the crime we had committed, and they informed us that I looked like I was warning my friends that they were coming and that I looked “suspicious,” and I replied, “Yes, I was warning them that you were coming because I did not want them to get hit.” About two minutes later, they got a call on their radio, and they let us go to go and harass some more people. I am cognizant of the crime statistics in N.O.; however, I do not believe that the cops should have used that as a pretext to treat me like a savage.

In closing, I want to say that I have the utmost respect for the policeman who performs his or her job well, which is to protect and serve, but I do not have any respect for those policemen who abuse their authority. Also, I have learned that no sober person should walk down Bourbon Street during Mardi Gras at night because it is not a fun place to be. Intoxicated people may be having fun while a large portion of New Orleans’ citizens are still living in FEMA trailers, and only half of them have returned, but I do not drink alcohol.

I know it is wrong and no way should the police punch anyone they are arresting but has anyone asked the question

If she didn't vandalise that car would she have been punched in the first place!!

By the police punching her it has taken the spotlight off the fact that she is a no good vandal who has ruined someone else's property!!

Plus if she is epileptic what is she doing in a club anyway surely all the strobe lights would set of a fit!!!

I am sorry but I think it is so wrong that the highlight has been taken off the fact she is scum

Again I don't agree with what the police did but if she never vandalised the car she wouldn't have been punched!!

to have a handgun in the car, even unloaded.

Okay, if it's so "illegal" to have a handgun in your vehicle, then how in the hell are you supposed to take it home from the store or to other places where you'd legally have it to use, or whatever? What do you do: SHIP it everywhere you want it? PSCHHH!

What's up with that?

My dad used to say that it was against the law to drive barefooted. When asked why, he said it was to protect our feet. Then again, my dad has always loved pulling people's legs... It's getting hot in south Texas again, and I'm finding myself kicking off my shoes while I'm driving.
So, mostly out of pure curiosity,
1. Is it REALLY against the law, in Texas, to drive barefooted?
2. If so, do you know the reasoning behind this law?
Personally, I think I get better traction with my middle-aged wrinkled foot skin, than I do with slippery shoe soles...
3. How is a law like that enforced... if it is a law?
Thanks.
