BLM / Plano - Disruption and confrontations

[Renegade]

He was the police chief in Amarillo before.. I thought police chiefs came from within the department.

He did come from the dept, sorta.

He started his career in Plano in and worked his whole career in Plano except those 4 years in Amarillo.

Houston always before had gotten a castoff from the bluest place they could find. Since Avocado decamped I believe they promoted from within. Watching disinterestedly to see if it makes a big rodent's rear of difference. So far no.

Here is another pic of the Plano Chief. As you can see, he is blocking traffic and walking with BLM. This is what we call "being part of the problem, not the solution". FYI - this is an incident from last year.

Here is a tweet from yesterday.

It has happened in Houston and in Plano and the Police have followed their orders and let it be. How much more before we understand that the rank and file officers are going to decide "screw the law, were just collecting a paycheck."
The law abiding are a much easier target. So if you want to play with these dogs or just run into a pack of them, the blue sheep won't help. It's hard to baaaaaaaaack the blue colored sheep

I know. After DPD had 5 dead officers, they got tough. Then they fired the Chief for arresting protestors....

That's not why that Chief was fired... and she wasn't the one that got tough.

well technically she resigned. But it was after that incident her career unraveled, not that she was going to be around for long. Minorities do not seem to have long tenure at DPD.

OP needs to check the political affiliations of Dallas and Plano government before thinking they are not democrat led.

Brown was chief when the 5 died, and things got tougher. Seemed like there was some funny business going on there, too, from watching some non-official DPD accounts. Hall seemed in bed with the libs from the start, but they turned on her after the bridge incident. With the non-libs, she was in trouble because she seemed to have some real serious personal problems, like not passing the test and being able to wear her uniform.





To the OP: yeah, we all need to individually take steps to be prepared. I'd suggest starting to learn more than just standing in place and shooting at paper targets. Maybe find 5-6 buddies and start investing in learning some tactics and even doing some airsoft matches together. Lucas of TrexArms has a lot of content on Instagram that might be useful for drills... and he's advocated learning movement and such if you really want to get serious about being prepared.

That is the way it looked to me. That bridge incident was a career ender, and the investigation and mis-statements after did not help.

This kind of stuff pisses me off.

If I marched with ANY political group in support or solidarity, I would be fired so fast it would make your head spin.

What would happen if we had a WLM protest?

You could if you were a police chief. Quit being a slacker and get promoted!

You would be harassed by fed civil rights folk. Put on terrorist watch list and no fly list. Doxed be press and government .

And no desserts for a year.

So did back up ever arrive and clear the intersection, or did they just wait until they got tired of protesting?

Nope, they're still there.

 

[easy rider]

I already know the answer to this, but why the hell arent these people working again? Everything is opened back up

They keep extending unemployment plus a $300 bonus. Some people will take a lot less for free rather than have to work.

IIRC this is the 3rd in Plano. 1st PD let it run it's course. 2nd was shut down right away. 3rd (this one) seems like privately planned.

Brown's call in D got them shot, was looking for better job at the time. Hall was 'uncoordinated' at best, don't know who gave the bridge arrest order that was then countermanded by city hall. Most front line chiefs are gone now. Pretty much a trade-a-chief now so collect pension and leave.

Sad but true. Possible the same ones, that would be on welfare instead.

Just offer them work boots....they'll call you racist but...
