I'm not surprised.

Written on Powell: Trayvon Martin verdict 'questionable':

Ten people killed overnight in Chicago, one was an eleven year old girl.


in response to sonnycrockett:

I guess once Madison figured out that the officer was wearing a camera and recording the stop, he now wants time to figure out what to do next. George, an apology to the officers for overreacting to this event would be the right thing to do. Your integrity is at stake here.

Madison didn't think they had video, ha ha. You cop haters didn't want to hear that.


in response to Panopticon:

The cops investigate themselves, and, lo and behold, they exonorate themselves! Is anyone surprised?

They just fired officer winters, what about protecting him. I think your just a hater.


in response to iheartpeople:

Not surprised at all. Hand grenades, tasers, SWAT, tanks are exactly what is needed in the rebelous town of Evansville. I saw Chief Belly Bolin chowing down on some fast food while driving the Bennet Motors Jeep (since when does the City advertise for a private company? Donations are fine but should be without advertising the donator) and he was in his own little world then and is in his own little world now. He watches Batsman movies and thinks he needs all the weapons he can get to hold off the evil of Gotham.

Honestly speaking though how did a man this unqualified get his job? I'm not being mean or disrespectful either. Is he really the best that the entire EPD had? Not a single person on the force had a college degree or the maturity level past 9th grade?

You mad bro?

Written on Camm murder case long nightmare for both sides :

There must have been a lot of evidence for two juries to convict him. I bet he was involved.

Written on Potential growth in Warrick sewage has Chandler, Newburgh at odds:

So I complained about the bill. Was told that they use to add a late fee and add previous bill to next month bill. Now, it is due on 20th every month regardless if you get bill or not. Total scam to generate revenue.

Get all that iron and copper out of the water.


Chandler utilities is horrible! Them bandits shut our water off without warning.

Bill was never received, Never received a late notice, and never been late before after 10 years of service. They wanted a $40 reconnect fee before turning back on.
All this for some crappy water that is hard, and full of iron and copper to rust anything it touches.

Written on Evansville Police Merit Commission fires Cpl. Mike Winters:

in response to spartan:


In this instance and from what the kid said, "it wasn't sexual in nature." Any person doing this would be/could be charged with misdemeanor battery.

I believe he got more than what any other person would have got, (21 days w/o pay). I don't agree with losing his job though.

He probably lost $3,000-4,000. He deserved the suspension, I'm just saying no one else gets that type of punishment for a misdemeanor. Probably court costs = $100-$200 bucks or around here community service.


in response to noog:

George Zimmerman criminal genius. Call 911. Tell them to send police. Break your own nose. Shoot innocent black kid. Claim self defense. Cunning plan.

Put the Coo Coo back in the clock.

Written on UPDATE| Defense rests case in George Zimerman trial:

I believe Zimmerman would have followed and tried to keep an eye on whoever was walking through the neighborhood until police arrived. White, black or Hispanic.

Written on UPDATE: Expert says evidence jibes with Zimmerman's story:

El rushbo,

Faded obama's post is no worse than any of yours.

Written on George Zimmerman Trial, Week 2:

Just from what I've seen so far....Not guilty!

Written on Neighbor testifies about Martin-Zimmerman fight :

in response to Up_North:

Anyone can use whatever racial slur they choose to use. As a previous poster said, your freedom so speech is protected. Use whatever slur you like. Understand tough that the constitution does not protect you from being treated as the ignorant person that you are should you choose to use that word.

I'll never understand the need that white people feel to use the n-word just because others do it. For centuries, and still now, it has been used to denigrate and discriminate against blacks. The word has been taken back somewhat by the black community and is used colloquially. When used among black people, the sting is gone. The hatefulness is taken away. Why is that so hard to understand. It's the same way when women will call each other b**ches, but if a man calls them it, it's easy to get offended.

The more pressing question is why do white people feel that they need to be able to use that word? Why is it so important that they be able to use the n-word? I've always wondered about that. And I'm as white as the freshly fallen snow.

Partially correct, but a white guy that is good friends and hangs with the black crowd cannot use the word either. As you say their is no hatefulness in that situation but expect a beatdown.


in response to Westside2:

Wouldn't surprise me if it was Zimmerman crying like a little boy. Like most gun totin' tough guys, he was big and bad when he had his gun and intimidating a teenager. But when it came to a man to man fight and he couldn't get to his gun, he turned into the coward he really is.


Written on Jury recommends Weisheit be executed:

He should have been shot and killed when he threw the knife at the arresting officers.

Written on Police dispute Facebook account of arrest at SculptEVV performance:

30 punches to the face or head area? Head slammed to the ground or pavement? One scratch or very minimal abrasions and he was released from hospital. Sounds to me that the arrested and his friend witness is exaggerating.

Written on Appeals court won't vacate Bradford's conviction for 1993 stabbing death | PDF:

Yeah the fire was started earlier, Bradford didn't do it right the first time he set it. The fire burned out and when he didn't hear fireman dispatched to a "fire" he became paranoid that the murder he committed will be discovered. So, he goes back and resets the fire just to make sure that evidence is destroyed. That is why he argues that point cause he knows the fire was started earlier.

Written on Police: Ky Officer fatal shooting 'premeditated':

Sure is a different world today it seems.

Written on Chief recommends suspension or firing of officer accused of battering student:

AIS or Academy of Innovative Studies is the politically correct name. It basically is an alternative school.


With exception of a few, AIS is horrible. The kids are disrespectful to all the staff and the other kids there. These kids CAN'T function in a normal school and pretty much given a diploma if they can just show up. It's all about money per student if they are in attendance. Who cares what bull the staff has to put up with.

Written on Evansville officer dislocates shoulder while pursuing suspect:

The officer is in good shape and plays ball at least 3 days a week.

Written on Police investigating parent's complaint that off-duty officer battered student:

in response to letsallgetalong:

By all means, let's have armed off-duty officers to protect our kids in schools.
They never make mistakes. Hopefully they are drug tested for all the legal amphetimines because they may get twitchy arm and accidently shoot someone.
We'll never know this cop's name. They never release the names of wrongdoers in the force. If they did, they would have to punish him and they simply won't do that. Protect and serve, their own, is absolutely correct. He'll never miss a paycheck.



That is why Mt. Vernon sucks. Too many nosy people in everyone's business.

Written on Motorists who flout tolls on Wabash bridge face prosecution in Posey County:

We used the bridge in February and it was really confusing. We thought there would be the automatic booth just to drop change in. There Wasn't anything and if there were signs it wasn't in view. If someone used it at night they sure wouldn't see any signs.

Written on Evansville police arrest three after finding meth supplies in truck:

in response to Panopticon:

Neither making nor using meth is a violent act, and so neither should be illegal. The only people who acted violently here were the cops.

Also, if you have anything illegal in your vehicle, always obey all traffic laws to the letter, including making sure that your taillights and headlights work. Don't give the cops any excuse to pull you over.

You must be stupid.

Agreed, this would be the time to have one.

in response to gollygeeandy:

(This comment was removed by the site staff.)

It doesn't matter the gun. You can take a small handgun and kill 10 kids. My point is you don't have to have a powerful gun and a high capacity magazine. Banning won't stop a determined individual set on killing.

Written on Teague disappearance is top card in KSP's deck of unsolved cases:

I believe dill either committed this horrible crime and/or participated. That's probably why there are so many questions. We may never know.

Written on New York newspaper's handgun permit map draws criticism :

Now as a would be burglar, the decision is easy. Burglarize the homes without a gun. The anti-gun folk should be upset with this as well.

Written on Urban advocates say new gun control talk overdue :

in response to jimbo2:

(This comment was removed by the site staff.)

Japanese tend to be more tolerant of the broad search and seizure police powers necessary to enforce the ban. "Japanese, both criminals and ordinary citizens, are much more willing than their American counterparts to consent to searches and to answer questions from the police. I don't think people are truly ready for tougher law enforcement. The criminal is protected here enough as it is. The courts would actually have to hand down stiffer penalties, which we all know that is not happening.

Approximately 3,200 babies die every day from abortions.

Every 23 seconds a baby is killed by abortion in the US.

Written on UPDATE: Newtown holds the first funerals for the victims | POLL:

in response to Up_North:

For all the people who say that you can inflict as much damage with a knife ask yourself this......Would you rather have to fight off someone with a knife or someone with a high capacity gun? At least with a knife, you have a fighting chance, literally. There is at least a chance in a knife fight. And they can't stab 20 people to death in 2 minutes.

You think that cops can be there in two minutes. WRONG!
You think 6-10 year old kids can fight off a knife attack. WRONG! Would they have a better opportunity against a knife compared to a gun, yes. The point is 1 kid is 1 too many to die.


in response to jinx:

This assault rifle was available right in the home of a troubled young man. Where is the responsible gun owner the gun lovers always talk about? And a kitchen knife? Get real.

You don't have a clue. You need to get real if you don't think that an individual is capable of getting into just about any school at any given time and do something similar without a gun.

I was at a high school the other day on business. I wasn't even questioned cause it appeared I was ok.


This is for discussion purposes and not meant to start any argument.

I know people want gun control. I'm just saying that guns will be out there at anytime for the wrong person no matter how much control.
I don't believe it's the gun but the person. This same guy could have taken a kitchen knife and probably did the same damage before police arrived.

Written on Evansville Council approved budget; Ford Center losses projected:

So Della resorts to name calling when I was simply stating a point that there is a lack of quality dine in restaurants within walking distance of a"state if the art" arena.
How can anyone take Della serious when name calling is part of the response.

Written on Evansville Council approved budget; Ford Center losses projected:

I was looking for places to eat on Main Street last week while attending a seminar. The choices were: subway, Angelo's, Lic's and a few raggedy bars. I couldn't believe that there wasn't a descent restaurant within walking distance of this monstrocity called the ford center. Why the heck even go downtown if you can't get some good food before or after an event.

Wonder what big news Donald Trump is going to announce Wednesday?


in response to guido63:

Okay, tommyb, since you have all the answers then explain what we have gained from going to war with the Afghans and Iraqis???

Who have we taken out with direct military involvement aka troops? Name one leading terrorist who lost their life or was taken captive by direct troop involvement and not by secret covert mission or drone strike? Just one!

What we have won in my opinion is that we have taking the inevitable war to them. A place where terrorists train and plan attacks against America. I believe that if it wasn't there then it would be here on our home soil. Something to think about.

Apparently you need to go back to the 3rd grade and learn how to read. I never compared marijuana to alcohol. The effects are different but nevertheless still IMPAIRMENT.

They won't test for marijuana unless there is an accident, so you won't know if it is in his system, and even if he was tested you won't be able to narrow down how long.


in response to DontBeBlind:

Alcohol impairs the judgments of others more than marijuana ever could, yet you can get it at gas stations. No one is minimizing the problems with marijuana. And a strong odor does not always mean someone has been smoking recently. There are different types of marijuana that give off a strong odor while being in an air tight container. He is probably a bad driver who happens to smoke marijuana, not a bad driver because he smokes marijuana.

Don't change subject to alcohol, this is a marijuana issue. People should not drive a vehicle under the influence or impaired by marijuana.


I would say that a strong odor would indicate that he is or had been smoking. Stop trying to minimize the problems associated with marijuana. It impairs ones judgement plain and simple.
