Think race played a role in what officers did?
A Texas police department changed its policy Monday after pictures surfaced showing two white officers on horses leading a black man in handcuffs by a rope.
Adrienne Bell, a Democrat who is running for Congress in 2020, tweeted the pictures showing one of the mounted Galveston police officers holding a rope attached to handcuffs clasped behind the man's back.
"It is hard to understand why these officers felt this young man required a leash, as he was handcuffed and walking between two mounted officers," Bell said in a statement. "It is a scene that has invoked anger, disgust and questions from the community."
According to the Galveston Police Department, the officers, identified as P. Brosch and A. Smith, arrested Donald Neely, 43, for criminal trespass on Saturday.
"A transportation unit was not immediately available at the time of the arrest," said a statement from the department. So Neely "was handcuffed and a line was clipped to the handcuffs," and the officer clutched the other end of the line, leading Neely.
The officers were "familiar" with Neely, and he had been warned about trespassing, the statement said. He was led on the rope about two blocks to "where the Mounted Patrol Unit was staging from."
The method of handcuffing someone and escorting them between two mounted officers is usually used in volatile situations, like crowd control.
"The practice was not used correctly in this instance," the police statement said.
"I believe our officers showed poor judgment in this instance and could have waited for a transport unit at the location of the arrest," said Galveston Police Department Chief Vernon L. Hale. "I must apologize to Mister Neely for this unnecessary embarrassment."
"My officers did not have any malicious intent at the time of the arrest," Hale said. "But we have immediately changed the policy to prevent the use of this technique and will review all mounted training and procedures for more appropriate methods."
Bell said she applauded Hale's "swift action" in discontinuing the practice.
But she added that "questions about transparency, community policing in the community, and accountability still remain. There are also concerns about arrest procedures for persons who are known by the police department, as having mental issues."
Bell said she would soon invite law enforcement leaders to a town hall meeting so they could face the concerns of community members.

Democrats Admit Their Welfare State Policies Have Been A Complete Failure
So now they want you to let them DOUBLE DOWN on them. After all, why bother trying to come up with better ideas to earn votes when you can simply buy them with other peoples’ money?
That’s what the Democrat Party’s leading candidates for the 2020 presidential election have discovered.
“Medicare for all” at a cost of $85 TRILLION dollars?
That’s child’s play! That’s just for starters!
Forget about free “STUFF,” now they one upped their game into free “MONEY.”
Andrew Yang promises to give every American adult a “freedom dividend” of $1,000 a month… for doing NOTHING.
Corey Booker (a.k.a. Spartacus) promises to give a bank account with $1,000 in it to every child and put $2,000 more in it every year until they turn 18.
Not to be outdone, spooky moon child Marianne Williamson promises to give out $500 billion in reparations to black people.
The Democrat platform is a virtual FREE-FOR-ALL of who can promise to raise your taxes the most and give more of your money away to someone else.
But the most pathetic part of all is what led to this desperate strategy.
After five decades of pumping taxpayer money into poor minority communities, to the tune of more than $22 TRILLION DOLLARS, and trillions more into the college system which did nothing but raise tuitions, the Democrats have chosen a strategy that clearly admits that their socialist welfare state policies have been a catastrophic FAILURE. It has failed so badly, that here today, 50 years and $22 trillion later they are STILL saying that we need to pump even more money down the same rat-hole with no evidence of results.
After the biggest, longest redistribution of wealth in the history of mankind, they admit that the problems are WORSE THAN EVER.
The Democrat 2020 campaign is a clown car. But the funny is on us. They want to take YOUR money and shove it down the same hole all over again with nothing to show for it. Are you really stupid enough to buy this?

Don’t Fight Insanity With Insanity
100 people died in car accidents yesterday in the US and 8,000+ were injured. IN ONE DAY.
Did this make the headlines? Does it EVER make the headlines although it repeats every single day 24/7/365?
Are the Democrat politicians tripping all over themselves in a rush to get on camera all over the media broken down and wailing their phony tears trying to show how much more compassionate they are than everyone else and proclaiming how much they grieve for the families of the car victims and demanding a ban on cars?
Why not?
When you have a country with 350 million people in it, shit happens. There is a tiny percentage of crazy people and there is nothing that can be done about it. Turning the country upside down, self-flagellating, using these rare events to score political points and taking away the rights of 350 million US citizens because a handful of people die every year in mass shootings is as insane as the acts of the sick people who perpetrate these crimes. Don’t fight insanity with insanity.

I wanna marry an EGG...
For years, I've been looking for an Egg. Eggs are sooo... sexy to me. Small with soft curves. I've always admired how they keep their shape no matter what the temperature is.
Someone told me Eggs like old, fat, white guys... like me and they don't care about my education, job, political orientation... just as long as I have a spare bedroom and money in the bank.
Since I'm new to this, I'm not sure if it's a chicken egg, duck egg, turkey egg, quail egg, or salamander egg I'm after... just as long as it's an egg, I should be allright.

vacation...
July is typically a month for vacation. I didn't take one this year because my field manager took a vacation, two of my designers took vacations, an associate took a vacation and one of the installation managers was out having surgery.
All my staff having vacations put a overload on my workload that I cannot see light at the end of the tunnel.

Funny and Pathetic At The Same Time...
His mistake was that he picked all Democrats.
Flatulence And Your Personality
Research have shown that there is a correlation between your personality and the way you get rid of your excess hot air and psychologists have divided all humans into seven categories – based on the way they fart. 
1. Unapologetic Farters
These people do not care about their surroundings and they will do what comes from the inside. They are brave, charismatic, adventurous, risk-taking, uncaring and bold.
2. Silent Farters
These are the people we need to be most afraid of. They are devious, evil, scheming, and are essentially very corrupt; able to put up a façade on the outside completely out of line with the inside.
3. Opportunistic Farters
These people do not walk around farting all day long but when the opportunity arises their true nature will surface. You would normally depend on them to keep it in but they won’t fail to emit their foul gases when there is enough noise to disguise the sound. In the absence of that they will create some diversion by coughing or sneezing.
4. Narcissistic Farters
These self-centred farts truly believe that their fart does not smell and in severe cases they may even believe that it smells good. They are proud, self-important, selfish, egotistical, narcissistic and arrogant bastards. Of all farters these are the most difficult to get along with.
5. Exit-The-Room Farters
These people are usually cowards, people who are scared and who had disturbed childhoods. They have very little or no confidence are always looking for gratification on the outside, believing what is good for the outside will also be good for the inside.
6. Non Farters
They often appear to be in full control, though constantly in denial and often miss out on opportunities. The real truth is that these people are so tight-arsed that they expand like a balloon when they try to fart.
7. Crappy Farters
These are the people who have not yet learned that a fart with lumps is a turd. Shit happens. They are mostly completely out of control and normally keep things inside until they blow their tops; or is it their bottoms?
With this information you can easily classify yourself without having to engage the services of a shrink but note that if you have been diagnosed with Dissociative Identity Disorder (previously known as Multiple Personality Disorder), it is possible that you may belong to more than one group.
The good news is that you will not be charged for this valuable advice; I render it as a free service in order to promote a better self-understanding.
May all your personalities enjoy today.

When Bill Clinton Said Exactly The Same Things President Trump Did On Immigration
How come no Democrats call Clinton a racist and a xenophobe?
