    Statement from one of the owners:

    “I feel like the situation has been handled horribly all the way around,” Pence said in an interview. He added: “All they needed to do was take responsibility, admit they had an accident and handle it differently.”

    Hate to tell you buddy, but you’ve got a better chance of winning the lottery.

    Statement from one of the cops (disputed by owners’ attorney):

    An officer identified in police records as John Pierce accused Morris of striking him “in the chest with an open hand,” causing him to lose his balance, according to police records.

    How does a grown person use this to justify violence or arrest without feeling deeply ashamed at having taken a job as a cop despite being such an absolutely fragile human being?

      How does a grown person use this to justify violence or arrest without feeling deeply ashamed at having taken a job as a cop despite being such an absolutely fragile human being.

      They took the job because they’re so deeply fragile and completely lacking in shame, why would they feel bad about it?
