Offence taken! I am not advocating for getting rid of the police. I am for getting rid of bad police. Police who have multiple allegations of misconduct and a number of disciplinary actions before they kill somebody. While I am a supporter of unions as a concept, there are many bad ones and police unions tend to protect their members at all costs. This has to change!
I realize you have simply copied a meme but do you think someone was checking the membership cards of the despicable criminal thugs who defaced this property or any others during the crime spree that happened on the back of peaceful protest?
On the bright side, My local reopend went for a few pints tonight. Football restarts soon, things are getting better.
Seen that earlier Wakey, I think the film Glory was based on this Union Regiment. It just shows how dumb these protesters are. .
Hey bud yeah I was thinking of the same film this morning. They asked to be first up to take the Fort next to the sea. In doing so they were slaughtered and that Fort was never taken. Off the top of my head was it not Galveston.i stand corrected it was Charleston. 600 men took part from the 54th.270 were either killed.. Wounded or captured.
TBH Wakey I'd have to google that, but the point is that this has gone beyond supporting a dead ex con and is just an excuse for mob rule. The pulling down of a statue in Bristol regardless of the mans past history is more anarchists and mob rule winning. The reason the statue was put up was for all the money he had given to the city and the building of schools etc. To me it's although they want to rewrite or hide History. There's even a memorial park in America for a Black Panther, tear that up. Apologies for rant. Maybe I should have posted on the politics thread.
Ok, funny, point is how do you know what affiliations those who committed these criminal activities had? Remember the good old days when football firms included scrappers who had no interest in football? They just showed up as they wanted to fight. Similar phenomenon.
