Teana Walsh, an assistant Wayne County, Michigan prosecutor posted this on her Facebook page after watching images of protesters and rioters in Baltimore following the homicide of Freddie Gray:
So I am watching the news in Baltimore and see large swarms of people throwing bricks, etc at police who are fleeing from their assaults ... 15 in the hospital already. Solution. Simple. Shoot em. Period. End of discussion. I don’t care what causes the protestors to turn violent...what the “they did it because” reason is...no way is this acceptable. Flipping disgusting.
this is an older article but it shows the mindset of those who oppose inspite of all the reporting and opining and calls for correcting wrongs on both sides police and rioters the hate shines through with statements like this there can be little hope for cooperation but as proven for decades some really don't want any more than the status quo that brought them to where they are now.
I don’t care what causes the protesters to turn violent..
She has since removed the offensive and incendiary post but you can see a screenshot of it HERE.
Considering her position as a prosecutor, Walsh's judgment is now seriously in question. Progress Michigan's Lonnie Scott issued this statement:
These remarks are particularly dangerous and irresponsible in light of protests taking place right now in Detroit in the wake of yet another shooting death of a young black man by law enforcement. Kym Worthy must conduct a thorough review of Walsh’s conduct as a prosecutor and should lead a discussion on the issues of police violence in Detroit. For an assistant county prosecutor to call for the summary execution of disenfranchised and angered citizens shows she has little regard for justice or due process.like i said some just want it to stay the same change threatens their position and ability to push an agenda like "just shoot them", in light of all the recent killing by cop that was might right wing of her.
UPDATE: AND NOT SOON ENOUGH! wonder who's decision it really was give her statement and the inference of conviction felt in the written text my first thought is not her's.
