Geared up w a gun, a dog, grungy tattoos and a holier than thou opinion of himself. Glad the right decision was made.

He wore all that to chase two black filmmakers?

Well, bless his heart!

The opening sentence states that he has been fired from the England PD. But there's no further reference to that action, and the two guys who filed the complaint said they released the video because they hadn't heard from the PD.

Also in the article is a statement that this guy had been fired from the Sheriff's office.

Sounds like a real gem.

Lonoke county is a county to the north of England, Ar. Both are to the East of Little Rock.

I don't think I've ever been to England - it's not on the way to anywhere. I assume it's a white flight bedroom community for Little Rock.

Is England a sundown town?

Judging how quick they got rid of the guy, I would guess not that conservative.

it may have just been that the cop was suspicious of people he didn't know. England is a small town and probably doesn't get a lot of outsiders - and these guys were filming something and therefore suspicious.

When you think about it, hassling folks obviously video recording guarantees you will be video recorded.

The cop got fired AFTER the the video was posted on the internet - not when the complaint was made. Nevertheless, the police chief gets some credit for doing the right thing.

On edit.. most of the small towns don't want the big city type cop, just someone to hand out the speeding and traffic tickets and bust up the ocassional teen drinking party

I don't know how many of us there are but we couldn't fill War Memorial.

I noticed it after the Bill Halter debacle.

However, I'm energized.

Attended the Woman's March (Little Rock), the March for Our Lives (Little Rock), and Families Belong Together March (Hot Springs). It's time to march and speak out. The country is at stake.

We're in the minority in Arkansas but we need to make our neighbors know we're here.
