I hope the town can survive this. Seems like a black eye on their reputation.

I'd rather they did nothing instead of gunning down unarmed minorities just for existing.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

Wasn't there a point like 2 or 3 years ago where the police in some part of New York got their panties in a bundle over all the anti-police rhetoric so they announced that they would only be responding to emergencies and nothing else, thinking that this would serve as some form of punishment, but everyone ended up loving it and asking them to keep it this way forever?

I finally read an article with real information

quote:

police chief, his four officers and two town clerks resigned


5 cops total resigned, and they only ever had 1 cop on duty at a time to begin with, which has been basically replaced by the sheriff's office in the mean time

also

quote:

“We don’t need to ... let everybody walk out because this woman has a hard time managing, and that I know for a fact,” McGowan said. She said she could not say how Jones was a poor town manager.

Can't even come up with a pretense for their quitting

also also


quote:

Former Kenly Town Manager Michael Douglas was charged with misdemeanor sexual battery in June 2020, according to court documents.

A civil lawsuit against Douglas and the town of Kenly was filed by a woman who claims Douglas came to her house and grabbed her breast in front of her sister and asked, “Why won’t your sister let me hit it?”

“Thoroughly disturbed by this incident, plaintiff contacted the Kenly Police Department to file a report but was prevented from doing so by the Kenly Chief of Police, who informed plaintiff she should just move on from the incident,” according the lawsuit.

The woman tried filing a report again with a police lieutenant, but the chief prevented the lieutenant from filing the report, according to the lawsuit

So it seems like those 5 cops didn't like the new town manager's attitude to sexual harassment (don't do it).
