The BLAZE is carrying a video of a police shooting on August 19th in St. Louis. Kajieme Powell was allegedly carrying a knife and had just robbed a convenience store, (petty theft, I think). The video shows him hanging around outside the store when cops showed up; he yelled at them to shoot him, wandered around a bit and started toward the police car. There was plenty of distance between him and the officer who opened fire and killed him after several shots.
COMMENTS:
At his point, I do not know whether Powell was black or
green. Had I been the officer, I would
not have shot him dead; I would have tried to taze him or maybe to him in the
foot or leg. This appears to me to be a
totally unjustified police shooting. I’m
guessing that, since Al Sharpton didn’t show up, the guy was not a Black.
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. I read that less than half of the Chicago residents want
Obama to build a Presidential Library there?
(Olaf ~ Wisconsin Rapids, WI)
A. That’s correct; only 47%.
And 45% are against it with 8% undecided. What they are saying, in essence, is that
Obama’s library should be built in his real home town of Under-A-Rock,
Kenya.
Q. I too think it was a crummy idea for Obama to go golfing
minutes after discussing the beheading of Foley. (Jason ~ Twin Falls, ID)
A. Obama is totally apathetic as to what anyone else thinks
or feels about anything. He has no
feelings and he doesn’t care whether we care about his insensitivity or not; he’s
the epitome of being a sociopath. If it’s
any consolation, he only lost 45 balls in the golf round; but you paid for
them.
Q. I understand Christian owners of a farm in New York are
facing a huge fine because they refused to allow a gay wedding to take place on
their property. (Lee ~ Carson, CA)
A. The farm owners rent it out for special events; they told
the couple they could have a reception there, but refused to allow them to get
married there. They have gay employees
and have hosted gay events I the past, but have never allowed a gay marriage
there. The Judge ruled that their business is a
public business and that subjects them to the law which endorses same sex marriages. I’m
for them; the fact that the gays chose to make an issue out of it instead of taking
their marriage business somewhere else where someone might want the income
tells me that the gays don’t give a damned about the religious beliefs of the
property owners, and I would not have allowed it either; there is such a thing
as freedom of religion and I don’t give a damn what the New York law says on
the subject.
