And his mom should have been a better parent when she had the chance. It is a TRAGEDY for all involved and my heart goes out to all involved on both sides. The cops give fair warning PRIOR to shooting any person. Most cops go their whole career without ever pulling their gun on someone then Lucifer brought Meth to the world of angels. A dead young adult should not be your wake up call. Hugging your child should be a commitment long before they leave the womb.<BR/>Sincerly,<BR/>A Mother with Teeneagers who are not perfect.

I too have had a sense that we as a Community have failed to work towards solutions to a system that is overstressed due to lack of funding, workforce, and the loss of leadership. What is the next step? Can we come together without forcing an "us them" rift that will further weaken our Community. We need ideas, and leadership to pull the Community togehter. Eureka will have to figure this out with it's own citizens. Other towns and cities should leave our Community alone and stop trying to force ideas on our Community that they themselves seem to have a hard time putting into action.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30719375.post-1162263042928189252006-10-30T18:50:00.000-08:002006-10-30T18:50:00.000-08:00#1 I will never pick on Marjorie Burgess again or ...#1 I will never pick on Marjorie Burgess again or stand idle while others do--the woman is in pain.<BR/><BR/>Remeber that she has a bunch of people around her keeping her stirred up all the time, she never has a chance to grieve her loss--its always on the the next protest...<BR/><BR/>What I heard in city council chambers is that she had a horrible childhood, didn't know what to do with the kids she gave birth to-asked the city the county for help and now we are here.<BR/><BR/>That doesn't to me sound like she is totally on the bandwagon with the so called cop haters.<BR/><BR/>I wanted to give her a hug myself and I am a cop-loving person I suppose who doesn't think plice review is a bad thing.<BR/><BR/>It worked today at city hall-everyone made their statements in a controlled calm way and listened to each other.

We can only speculate what had happened. The one person who could put the light on this subject is no longer with us. His mother is lashing out, but there might be layers of guilt that again we don't know about. It is a sad commentary of our police departments protocol. Everything about this so far is bad. We can only hope for some lesson for the future or this tragedy is even more sad.samoasoftballhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06244238117702878406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30719375.post-1162232250100920352006-10-30T10:17:00.000-08:002006-10-30T10:17:00.000-08:00Didn't the T-S run an article right after the shoo...Didn't the T-S run an article right after the shooting that said <BR/><BR/>one, the probation officers walked into the house through an open door? <BR/><BR/>and two, the girl friend said the PO's said "What's up, Chris?"?<BR/><BR/>and three, that Chris ran away while holding up his pants?<BR/><BR/>Doesn't all this mean the PO's probably interupted Chris while he and his girl friend were having (oral) sex? <BR/><BR/>Would that help explain why he was really pissed off?<BR/><BR/>Why hasn't anybody on the blogs or in the MSM Media asked about this ? <BR/><BR/>(("What's up, Chris?"

Running was part of a sad and unneccessary drama that Mr. Burgess could have ended at any time by dropping the knife and submitting to lawful authority (the Probation officers or the Police). <BR/><BR/>Instead, it looks like he held onto the knife and threatened the "cop" with it, too. Bad move! <BR/><BR/>"No individual is above the Law." If Nixon had remembered that, he might not have had to resign the Presidency in 1974.

I wish she would stop screaming at our elected leaders. <BR/><BR/>She makes her family look out of control with disrespect for authority. <BR/><BR/>She thinks she is helping her cause, but she is weakening it. <BR/><BR/>I think she is whipping up a lot of young people into a frenzy of hatred against the police and local government. I am afraid she may motivate some unstable child to do something dangerous against another police officer, with God only knows what results. <BR/><BR/>Her grief, anyone can understand. Haven't we all faced grief in our lifetimes?
