How to Make an Idiot out of Yourself
A fellow calling himself Scott Hudson, who refused to state exactly where he lives for privacy reasons, approached the podium to complain that police are mean to him. He had a 360 degree camera attached to his head as he spoke.
Now if this camera also shot out laser beams, I'd give this guy props. But no such luck.
What this guy does is run around at night, with the camera attached to his head, and taunt cops.
He says he's a journalist.
Come to think of it, I run around at night, and taunt public officials. But I have no camera attached to my head.
I'm a blogger.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
If the cops did the same sort of thing to him, he'd call it "entrapment."
ReplyDeleteI have never seen it fail that if you give an officer the slightest chance to be a good guy (or gal), that's exactly what they're going to do.
Are there a few bums scattered among the ranks of police officers nationally? Sure, just like every other profession. But the tiny number of bad cops are causing the huge number of good cops to be tarred with a really big, indiscriminate brush.
I wonder who this joker would call if someone was breaking into his house?

ReplyDeleteIt's not a city unless there aren't some screwballs walking the streets.
ReplyDeleteHey, this guy was at council to ask if he could do some spelunking underneath the Lehighcounty prison, that just so happens to be in the city of Allentown.
ReplyDeleteMyself I have to ponder to pander what kind of caves a beneath city hall for the pleasures of officials.
Bernie I will chip in for one of these for you, if you promise to turn it off during functions that occur below the waist.
ReplyDeleteYou got it.
ReplyDeleteOh Boy, not another council pestering nut I hope. Does he believe there's a vast conspiracy against him too?
ReplyDeleteCorrection - you are a "bottom feeding" blogger.
ReplyDeleteLooks like their serving and protecting the shit out of that guy. I can't imagine why else someone would have such a hobby.
