Many of the individuals involved are UM students --- this is something she should have been dealing with from the first 911 call.<br /><br />AND when the head of EO&D is involved in the Black Reunion itself, when she is the one to whom all the complaints about "racist" cops would be directed (particularly since UMPD mutual aid would have been needed), perhaps she could have been proactive?<br /><br />But no, this was about <b>power</b> -- we can do this and you can't.<br />You can't touch us.

You going to support the cops when it all goes wrong and it's front page news across the nation? Or will you join hands with you pals sporting a black lives matter/hands up don't shoot/can't breathe t shirt while marching down Main Street? I'm guessing the latter. They moved in for more reasons than that when blarney hit & were crucified. Nationally crucified for doing their job. You bitch when they use caution and prudence and condemn when they take the necessary steps. They let this go, wise decision.<br /><br />Again you are missing the real issue; the issuance of a permit based on false pretenses. The town/lsse got duped (again). Dunce hat time you fools. They will still issue it next year for the "Jones" family reunion.
