We got to talking politics and this story came up. When I told her one of the women evicted from the trees was named "Dumpster Muffin", I thought she was going to have a heart attack she was laughing so hard. "I heard part of the story on the news, but when they said her name, I thought I was hearing things," she said. Between fits of outrageous laughter, she joked, "That's what you can name your next child!" Yah - she won't let me name my daughter Hermione (a good, respectable British name) but she thinks Dumpster Muffin is hilarious. Gosh, I love my mother. :lol: Tonight I was talking with my mom.

They need to be aware that that is a FELONY in the state of California. Back in the day even that dipstick with the bullhorn would have gone to jail, police work has really changed since I started. I would also charge them with assault and battery, Interfering with a PO and being stupid in a no stupid zone, with a lesser included offense of mopry with intent to gawk.<--- Old joke among cops back in the day and I still don't really know what it means. ;) www.americanarmed.blogspot.com What really ticks me off is how often you see an officer trying to make an arrest and the scumbags friends try to pull him away.

Same on the Berkley Police for letting the Criminal Assault continue--THEY should have pressed charges going around the City or County Attorney if necessary. We have seen how allowing these assaults to go unanswered to worse. Someone is going to kill a policeman or citizen and we will see stupid "Stop the Hate" candle light vigils.
