Yup, we get road details all the time at a flat "detail rate". The detail rate is actually lower than our OT rate, so I try to grab a OT shift more than a detail.

The road details are a huge benefit to the city as a detail officer is expected to respond to 911 calls if they are within walking distance now. So you get a extra officer in the street, on the utility companies dime.

One positive thing about recent events is it inspired Lil B's first good track :kappalq:

**Priran** · 2014-12-21 14:55

so how about them dead cops in brooklyn targeted as revenge for eric garner and michael brown

**notorious bum** · 2014-12-21 15:18

I heard he visited Ferguson and lead the protestors for a few days before he murdered his gf in B-more by accident, then headed to NYPD and found two cops that were seen harassing protestors. Shit is a conspiracy tho, some say it was a setup and he was assassinated by the FBI because he was going to be the next Fred Hampton.

Same people who think 9/11 is a conspiracy, etc. Tinfoil needed before reading the article. You've been warned.

**Koul** · 2014-12-22 01:33

Your conspiracy theories are obviously CRAZY but my conspiracy theories are obviously logical. Is that the gist of it

**notorious bum** · 2014-12-22 03:43

Yall don't know who Fred Hampton is or? Anyways, wtf is counter-current news? lol At least the 9/11 folks have some valid concerns (well, some of them). These cats who do street-level conspiracies with low IQ's are the same people liking the killer's Instagram.

This is some fucked-up ominous shit, but it is to be expected, if anyone has followed these protests from the beginning closely. The racist hatred is hella present online, threats launched every day. Shit, all I do is retweet and favorite mainly on twitter and I have received neocon blast messages about "the blacks" from established accounts. The overtly racist stuff will be from newer accounts or eggs, usually, but it seems like the bigots are being more vocal lately.

If the NYPD wants deBlasio to give two shits about them they need to become horses.

**Khajit** · 2014-12-23 03:21

The only stupid infographic I've gotten so far is this stupid one that 5 seconds of google disproved. Then again most of the stupid thread related comments I see on facebook are from the same person who has shown no concept or understanding of how inaccurate every opinion he repeats (with regard to anything stemming out of Ferguson) is even when his statements are dissected and analyzed for him to show how wrong they are.

People will fit the commentary to their agenda no matter what. If he doesn't speak about something, he's an unfeeling Muslim terrorist. If he speaks about something, he needs to shut up because the President is above discussing those sorts of things.

I've stopped caring at this point. The President could condemn North Korean cyber-buttfuckers at this point and people would still say he's weak for not sending in troops to show them what good ol' America can do when a flea wakes a sleeping giant.

#AntonioMartin just turned 18 in September. He was unarmed. He was Black. He was murdered by the police. Berkley, MO, outside of Ferguson.

ShordeeDooWhop ‏@Nettaaaaaaaa 10m10 minutes ago

Folks in the crowd said #AntonioMartin was breathing when he hit the ground. And they let him die. #AntonioMartin #Berkley #Ferguson

#AntonioMartin body still on ground at gas station parking lot after cops shot him. Its been over an hour http://www.ustream.tv/channel/stacki...20141223224501 … #Ferguson

**kuronosan** · 2014-12-24 02:34

And what happened?

**notorious bum** · 2014-12-24 02:51

Hearing that they wheeled his body into the back of a minivan. Fucked-up shit that it took them 3hrs to move his body. He bled out just like all the recent murders, medical attention refused to be given. Pic of gun has surface, no official story yet.

**notorious bum** · 2014-12-24 02:52

Also appears they showed up with dogs, again. Victim's family is at the scene, he was killed while with his girlfriend.

**Nephlite** · 2014-12-24 03:28

No real news on this yet except the photo's of a gun with a police marker on the scene.

Additionally, three people in D.C. were shot early yesterday morning in apparent revenge attacks. All were non-LEO, but had tags/stickers for FOP on their vehicles. Guess if you support the police or are affiliated, you'll get killed too.

**Khajit** · 2014-12-24 04:34

Huffington post wrote an article and it seems the officer is claiming Antonio Martin had a gun. Hopefully there was some proper video this time.

Edit:
Also the guy tweeting that he was Antonio's best friend is a hoax. he just did it for the retweets it seems.

**notorious bum** · 2014-12-24 04:44

I'm seeing people report that Christo is a fraud and wasn't even at the scene... meanwhile AP and NYT are reporting the police story as all facts without even seeing the camera footage. God, I love journalism.
