The St. Louis Rams are under fire from the St. Louis Police Officers Association for their intro protest they put on during their game against the Oakland Raiders on Sunday. The Rams play 17 miles from the turbulent Ferguson, MI where protests and riots have broken out in the city and across the country.
"There's so much ugliness in this statement that it's difficult to know where to start. "Violent thugs." "I've got news for people." There seems to be an implicit threat of … something, which is a little alarming to hear from a leader of a police union. Now, it is definitely worth noting that this isn't the Chief of Police talking; this is the business manager of a union. Actually, it's more than that: Roorda is a former cop (who was once fired and accused of filing a false police report) and former Missouri state representative who just lost an election for state Senate, and may have just found a way to keep his name in the news.”
