Can I direct you to Loams post, 3rd from the bottom on page 2 of this thread? There is ample evidence of systematic harrasment.

McKinney has complained directly to Capitol Police over the very same issue, which resulted in EVERY Capitol Police officer being made aware of McKinney. To claim there are Capitol Police officers that do not recognize her beggers belief. Also the fact that the Grand Jury refused to indict her lends credence to the very premise of extenuating circumstance. How else would she avoid indictment when she admitted to striking the officer?

First, how do you know the police officer saw her face? If she was rushing in and avoided the metal detector the police officer may have noticed when her back was to him, and not before. She avoided indictment on grounds of "political correctness". We know that in these days just for being in a minority group you can make claims, whether they are true or not, and due to the "PC" of these days the person belonging to the minority group will get away with almost anything.
I know this because I am part of a minority group, and tehre have been situations which I could have used to make easy money, yet i dind't, because it isn't right. The only thing that stopped me from using my ethnicity to make easy money was my moral values. But we all know there are people out there who don't care much about moral values, and others would used any advantage they have just to get away from a situation such as this one.

It wont make a difference. Mauddib is married to his position.
In his world, ALL allegations made by law enforcement are fact to be proven otherwise. Fortunately, he was not responsible for architecting our jurisprudence system.

I cant fault the content of that post but its mere conjecture, nothing in it is factual. There is ample evidence of systematic harrassment against McKinney by Capitol Police.
Also if McKinney got passed this guard without him noticing then he should be fired on the spot for gross negligence.

Who is basing their argument in nothing but conjecture and making assumptions? I already stated I am not sure to what happened exactly, but i see people just immediately agreeing with her...perhaps it has something to do with her views?

A person that assaults a Police Officer should feel right at home. Kind of like a Kennedy that drives under the influence.

I wouldnt confuse your ignorance of the facts with complete ignorance of the facts, Muaddib. There is ample evidence outlining what has occured before, during and after this incident. If you dont read what is given then whats the point of discussing anything with you? Loam is right, you really are married to your position and not a thing we say will change that.

Still no qualification on your "poor genetics" comment jsobecky? So you dont mind people thinking you're a racist?

Trying to bait me, subz? And are you calling me a racist?
What is racist about poor genetics?
Originally posted by subz
I remember reading her accounts of being stopped relentlessly by Capitol Police before this incident occured. Loam also provided past occurances where Rep. McKinney has complained directly to Capitol Police over the very same issue, which resulted in EVERY Capitol Police officer being made aware of McKinney.

Well, jsobecky, if you would maybe explain what you meant, people wouldn't jump to their own conclusions.
I would actually like to know what source you have for this "bad genetics" theory. Is there some article that puts this out there without involving race? I don't see this as baiting you, as much as trying to get you to clarify exactly what you were suggesting.

What happened? Why so quiet?
The argument is "Don't Touch!". But what if you had dropped your wallet or some important papers? Would you not want someone to alert you to that fact?
She's just too stupid to do so. Poor genetics, methinks.

I doubt you know her parents, so that cant be it.

Get serious. Do you explain every word or phrase you type?
And I want to know how someone equates poor genetics with being racist. When you explain that, things can progress.
I didn't create that argument; I won't defend it.
