tale as old as time at this point: pigs knock on the wrong door and ventilate a guy as soon as he opens it, then try to make it sound like they're heroes

quote:

He said the sheriff’s office, through its statement about the shooting, had misled the public.

“You go pick it up and read it. What’s it make you think? It makes you think this happened outside. That this kid was in the middle of a disturbance,” Barr said. “And he did something. He instigated this and lost his life. That’s what it makes it sound like. It sounded justified. That’s what they tried to make it sound like.”

In its statement, the sheriff’s office said: “Our deputy responded to a call of a disturbance in progress where he encountered an armed man. The deputy shot the man, who later succumbed to his injuries.”

:sigh:

unfortunately for the cops he was facetiming his girlfriend at the time

quote:

Pittsburgh is worse than Philadelphia

I spent several days in Pittsburgh last week and was thinking about writing this, but when I read the story about the state of Downtown and other parts of the City, I knew I had to write (“Downtown, South Side remain epicenters of violence, despite Pittsburgh’s crime numbers — and response,” Aug. 1).

In all my years of living in and visiting Pittsburgh, I have never seen the Downtown look so bad. Empty, dirty, and unsafe. Personally, I experienced an attempted homicide in the lobby of my hotel on Forbes Avenue and was accosted twice walking to my office in Gateway Center. Yes, I live in Philadelphia and as bad as Philadelphia is, Pittsburgh is worse. I am trying to get my colleagues back to work at least four days a week, but with what I experienced, it is apparent downtown has a true chicken and egg dilemma.

But I was also in Lawrenceville, Shady Side, and Squirrel Hill, which were the polar opposite of Downtown. The fact is, for a city to be thriving, it must have a strong core. If something is not done, Pittsburgh will suffer in job loss and reputation. To see friends and associates was wonderful, to experience the Downtown was heartbreaking.

I don’t have the answer, but one thing I know about Pittsburgh is there are people, businesses and organization there that do, and they should be given the chance to make things right.

Crime in the area he's complaining about is a third what it was in 2015, but homelessness has exploded since the covid eviction moratorium ended. Both parties are manufacturing a narrative to remove the homeless by framing them as a criminal element.
