This article contains the thread appearing on a public forum called St. Louis Coptalk (SLC). SLC is a forum that many St. Louis Police Officers utilize to discuss issues and topics. This thread, in particular, demonstrates a ethos of blatant disrespect and a willful interest in harming peaceful demonstrators. The entire thread is preserved along with links (in case it is removed from public viewing). This is incredibly scary stuff -- especially since some of the posts allude to information that has already been removed from the site and appears to have given names and addresses of various organizers and protestors. |

I missed the earlier posts about the protesters coming to St. Louis.
Who is in town (or coming) that causes the Turds to come to good old St. Lou?
Their website shows no planned action.

The World Agricultural Forum opens May 18th. You'll have to seek further information elsewhere.

Where did the "Anarchist" posts go? Oh well, no matter. All the post with references to shooting protesters have been printed out and mailed to various media sources, Internal Affairs, the U.S. Attorney's Office, the A.C.L.U., and the Attorney General.

Nothing wrong with a peaceful protest you have that right. But, when you attempt to harm an officer or destroy property in our city you better believe we our gonna open a can of GRADE A WHOOPAZZ! You can quote that if you like.

I don't know why the information posted previously was removed, as it was info obtained through internet search engines. Not Regis. That is why the info did not give full date of birth, social security etc. If these folks want to mix it up with us, and want to post their name out over the net, they are fair game too. I don't know if youv'e noticed, but one of their sites has pictures of some of our officers on it. Why do we have to play fair and they don't?

We will not allow posting of names and addresses of private citizens, regardless of the subject matter. If you think these people are a threat to police officers, get authorization from your Watch Commander and post the names on Department Outlook, which is not accessible to the public.

Posted by Seattle???? on May 13, 2003, 11:59 pm, in reply to "Protesters"
Will this be another Seattle? I don't know, and
from what I have heard, no one else really knows.
I would like to thank the MR sgts who have
put a helluva lot of time into preparing us for
this. I know at least two MR sgts have put in
about 12 hours a day plus to get us prepared and
will probably not get any credit (or overtime
pay).
If we make it through the storm, I am buying them
both alot of beer.
You guys know who your are.

Mobile Reserve will be prepared, the question would be how long can those trained people put up the good fight before they must fold? At some point, numbers become important and we may not have the numbers necessary to fulfill the task. These are groups that are trained to recognize when a department is understaffed and to take advantage of that fact. Also a good time for those who still use the drop handcuff carrier to rethink that idea. I still see a lot of those out there, they will be gone in this situation.

Barring major bizarreness, this is not going to be another Seattle--it's a minor protest! A bunch of politicians are trying to hype it up--don't fall for it. Relax and do your job, let the protesters say what they think peacefully, and all should be fine.
