There's allot of people in Savannah that need shooting.

Seems like every shoot now there's "a gathering".  Hopefully this one is cut and dried and one less to worry about.

That's a much nicer way of saying what I was thinking.

At 1:51 p.m. Thursday the Chatham Emergency Management Agency sent a
robo-call to 286 people, including volunteers and representatives from
local hospitals, city government and  Georgia Power, who are registered
to work in its emergency operations center, or EOC. The message said:




"Hello. This is a message from the Chatham Emergency Management
Agency. There is a potential civil unrest situation. All Emergency
Operations Center staff are asked to stand by and be prepared to staff
the downtown EOC if necessary
. Once again this is a message from the
Chatham Emergency Management Agency. There is a potential civil unrest
situation. All Emergency Operations center staff are asked to stand by
and be prepared to staff the downtown EOC if necessary. Thank you.”




Spokeswoman Meredith Ley said the call was standard protocol, whether
it’s a manmade or natural disaster. Similar calls are made for St.
Patrick’s Day and the Rock ‘n’ Roll Marathon, she said.  The decision to
place the call Thursday was made internally at CEMA, "based on us
working with the police and listening to what’s going on,” Ley said. It
wasn’t based on the report of a shooting by a police officer per se but
on "the civil unrest and how things could possibly escalate quickly,”
she said.




"This is an attempt for us to be prepared so if the situation
escalates quickly we are ready to move to the EOC quickly and wouldn’t
be wasting precious time,” she said. The EOC bring together key
community partners in one place so they can work together.




The assembled crowd at the scene has been peaceful.

Yeah, really looks like it.  Ok for the kids to play late at night at too I bet.



Was in Savannah a few weeks ago.  Hit and miss, though I'm glad we stayed at the Hampton Inn further east and not near MLK drive.



It was a nice time at Forsyth Park having one bum try to get us to take pictures of the fountain at "this best spot" and then watching from a distance a sketchy dude on a skateboard ride close by, eying the cell phone.  Head on swivel for the win.

Scuttlebutt here is that an officer cuffed a guy and stuck him in the back of his car but didn't pat him down well. Dude starts shooting from inside and cops ended the problem.

Dear God, let the deceased have felony warrants and a gun in his hand that was purchased recently by his girlfriend.  While you're at it, let the officer who shot him be black.  Let them riot anyway and complain about white privilege and burn down their neighborhood before those details emerge.  In Jesus' name we pray.

Yeah as long as the "victim", so to speak, wasn't unarmed, then this should blow by faster than the gathering's EBT balances.

It'll probably be condensed down to "Officer shoots handcuffed man".  The rest will be ignored at first.

I guessed that from the buildings in the background of the video.  I should probably check my privilege though.

Yeah I'm struggling with the handcuffed part.  They'll see "in handcuffs" and "shot" and "black", and you'll have Holder, Sharpton, Crump, etc, in town before the body gets room temp.  That's the unknown here.    



Police Chief black too?  You guys might have dodged a bullet, though it looks like the one guy didn't.

Wonder who the prez will send to the funeral???

And when can we expect the race pimps to show up.


And I am familiar with Savannah.  Better not start any fires in the area of the shooting.   It would go up like fireworks.

Just said the guy was getting a warrant served, stuck in the cruiser. He kicked out the window and was trying to get out. Reporter was a little unclear but mentioned something about a gun being seen. Cops shot him and a gun was found under the body. Name is Charles Smith..

The crowd is asking for the officer to be put on unpaid leave but department is saying that is not their policy.

Arrest was captured on video.

They got rid of the last black police chief because he wasn't nice enough to black people, or something like that. He was accused of racism or harassment or something.
