So what the fuck was all that about in L.A.? ANOTHER Rodney King episode???
Sorry I should explain......
An amateur video was taken on Saturday of an incident showing a white police officer throwing some young black kid called Donovan Chavis (16) against a police car and then punching him in the face.
It happened at a gas station where police were questioning his father about his expired license plates. When the teenager boy approached them they told him to put the chips down and step back from the car. That apparently is when it all got nasty.
The police say that the boy started arguing with him, but his father has protested that and said that the boy didn't know what was going on and that he actually has a development disability and was just confused.
You know what though it doesn't matter what the boy said, he could of told them to go fuck themselves, you DO NOT smash a kid onto the bonnet of a car and then for no reason punch him (VERY HARD) in the face..... And we KNOW it happened because it was all on tv.
Apparently the police officer is now suspended, for how long? oh please, until the tv stations stop commenting on it, that's for how long.
Also the FBI are doing their own investigation. Well that's going to help the family isn't it? A bunch of dickheads in suits getting involved, they're only going to fuel the police even more and no doubt that whole family will have parking tickets, local fines and constant harrassment for a very long time to come.
Don't you just love American police officers????? Give me a dumb ass English bobby with just a stick for defense ANYDAY.......
Ooh listen to me going on like I know anything....NOT.
Oh god that's what I wanted to say the Guardian Newspaper online has this section called weblog, which is a service that they provide for people with their own websites. If they like your website (fingers crossed) then they'll add it to their list and upload it!! How fab is that? I've not really checked it out properly, Morpheus told me about it when he got home last night, so I emailed them my URL with a small note and will hope for the best.
Go to this link www.Guardian.co.uk and then click on weblog.
Ok have to go to my podiatrist today to check on my little toe to see if it IS actually broken, probably not but it still hurts like hell with proper shoes on.
later........
