chit never ends

Get ready...you're next.

The Officer should be politely boiled in oil,lol.

Another fine job done by the boy's in blue,or is it black? For all that is disgusted by this,you should be. Very plain to see where this is going. Remember folk's,they have families as well,and shit roll's down hill. OK,so he was a simi whack job,but still just half a man.

Nice to see that pigs don't discriminate against the handicapped...they'll kill them, too! Everyone is a perp ( in a pig's eye)

Two cops couldn't handle an amputee? What kind of police training is that?
