Kick Boxing Champ And Businessman Racially Profiled




Former 5 time Kick Boxing Champion of the world and Memphis businessman Anthony "Amp" Elmore on last time was stopped by a Shelby County Deputy Sheriff on the pretense that his taillight was out. The officer at first would not tell Elmore what he was being stopped for.
Elmore ask the officer to call his supervisor to the scene which only made matters worse. The supervisor who is the brother of State Representative Larry Miller did not question why the officer stopped Elmore for a tail light being out when it could plainly be seen that there was no problem with the light at all.
The champ feels as though he was racially profiled by the white officer and the supervisor had to follow the color of blue and not have a concern for the rights of a citizen. Elmore sent Sheriff Mark Luttrell an email stating that he plans to file a complaint. Posted is that e-mail and a response from the Sheriff's office

Re: Formal Complaint of Racial Profiling and being stopped without probable cause and lack of examination by a supervisor

Dear Sheriff:

How are you? I last spoke to you on October 15, 2008 at Brad Martin’s home as we among others who were there to meet President Bush and Senator Lamar Alexander. Brad and Diana invited me and my wife Bogalech to the event as their personal guest.

On tonight Monday February 25, 2008 an officer Beck stopped us near Riverdale Road and Holmes road. I asked the officer why I was stopped and he told me that he would tell me later. I explained to the officer that I was a strong citizen with an impeccable reputation in our community and I happen to have a brochure with myself and Congressman Cohen on the picture.

The officer told me that my left brake light was out and I simply asked to see the light so that I could correct the matter and I was told to stay in the car. Since there was no need for alarm I asked the officer to call his supervisor since my wife had just purchased the car and it had just passed inspection.

When Supervisor Miller arrived on the scene he asked me did I know him and I told him I know most Shelby County Sheriffs and just because I did not know his first name I did know him and more than likely he would know me. Officer Miller insulted me and accused me of subtle intimidation. The fact is that I do know Larry Miller and I was told by Randy Wade that he trained officer Miller . The issue that I challenged officer Beck on was the issue of probable cause and Supervisor Miller and an other squad car overlooked the fact that I did not have a brake light out and Officer Miller would not acknowledge the fact that I was stopped for improbable cause and Racial profiling. It was Officer Miller’s duty to point out to me that I indeed had a mal-functioning brake light; instead he chose the “Good old Boy” network to stand behind an officer whether he was right or wrong for stopping me.

I understand that a citizen has a right to call for a supervisor when he is unjustly stopped and this is a clear cut case of injustice. This letter is an official letter of complaint and I am taking this matter to you personally. During my conversation I kelp my cell phone on and I have a witness regarding this matter.

As a concerned citizen this County should not have Racial Profiling and this letter is to bring this matter to your attention. We are also copying this letter to County Mayor Wharton and to our county Commissioners. This office would like to know why supervisor Miller would allow an unjust improvable stop and they are the ones who intimidated me and causing my wife to cry.

Sincerely,


Anthony Elmore

Thaddeus,

I'm so glad you erased that ASS CLOWN posting. Now lets get back to blogging.

Thaddeus do you know what type of car Anthony was driving? Usually the PoPo's pull black men over who have expensive cars. If he had an expensive car in a White neighborhood then I believe he was racially profiled.

Well Mr. Thad, this is a rich one.

You have one brother trying to "one up" another brother and it didn't quite work out for either! Everyone walked away so that much is good news! No mace, no taser, no shooting, and no major beat down.

"I know so and so.....You don't know who I am.....You don't know my position.....You don't know my dog's name....."
In the end it is only Rep. Larry Miller(Gail Jones Carson's former squeeze, who got pissed because he dumped her, and she in turn is your pal) who gets drug through the mud. Fishy tale here. You still owe her for that paperwork on Becton she passed you at that Democrat club meeting don't you?

The office of political correctness, I mean Sheriff IAB, will get to the bottom of this. That is until they find out this is politically motivated and it gets buried.

Miller has done a lot for the community......such as getting a law passed through, to allow people to collect dead animals off the street to eat. Dogs, cats, raccoons, skunks, goats, no difference. Free food for everybody....some of it aged!

By the way....did "Amp" ever turn in his special deputy badge and ID and confiscated gun, that Gilless and Randy "Redbone" Wade gave him?

How do you feel about Rev. Kenneth Whalum's idea of a strong black man for Superintendent of Schools? I strongly support it myself. Makes good sense too. Let us hope he doesn't go for Iranian muff.

It definitely sounds to me like Mr. Elmore has a legitimate complaint and that he is going through the proper channels to address his concerns.

Though I don't know Mr. Elmore personally, I've read about him over the years, including stories about his art collection and his beautiful and unique home. I always thought he was someone I would like to meet.

I hope that this situation is addressed and resolved quickly by the sheriff's department. The citizens of Memphis should not and will not tolerate racial profiling or harassment by our public servants.

I would like to say to you, Thaddeus, that this is exactly the kind of case where you can be a champion for the cause. Your source for this story is a reliable one, and you wrote about it in a fairly unbiased and non-inflammatory way.

And I also noticed an improvement in your writing, spelling, punctuation, grammar and capitalization. I don't say that to be condescending, but because it is true and makes your blog easier to read.

His beautiful and unique home is something that the tax assessor should look into. It's almost 5,000square feet with an assessed value of $169,000 or about $34.00 per square foot.

This is the problem with the city. A local sports celeb and business owner, someone who adds flavor and charm to our city, Amp is stopped for no damn reason.

Why not stop somebody that actually did have their lights out or had no license? Why stop somebody who is obviously a strong, productive member of the community instead of all the losers that need to be stopped?

Having fulfilled the long list of licenses fees and requirements(insurance), wouldn't it be a better idea not to stop a guy who is actually out there working and contributing, paying taxes? Why make this an unpleasant night for the guy and his wife? We should indeed encourage guys like Mr. Elmore to stay here and at least afford them a modicum of respect and dignity.

It is an insult to intelligence to tell a guy his light is out when everybody clearly knows it's not. This smacks of intimidation tactics.

Your judgment is so clouded by hate that you can't let yourself see the truth. This officer may have been exactly like you--a racist who takes every opportunity to put a black man in his place.

Mr. Elmore is a very active and visible member of the community, and he deals with people of every color on a daily basis. I believe that he would be able to discern whether the officer was prejudiced toward him.

He asks for your license, and you ask why you are being pulled over. He refuses to tell you.

You just stop talking then, accept the ticket and go to court?

Who do you expect to believe that?

Policemen are public servants.

Mr. Elmore is a citizen and taxpayer.

Having a tail light out is no reason for a public servant to harass a citizen.

Anonymous said...

Let’s analyze this for what it is.

It should be easy to determine if the light was out. SO cars have cameras. The deputies know this, so the officer would be dumb to stop someone without a violation. IF that happened, fine, he should get what he deserves.

But, it looks a whole lot like some pissed off well-to-do guy who thinks the law doesn’t apply to him. He also has a big black chip on his shoulder. Why do I say that? Because if you’ll notice he only copied selected black members of the County Commission. Next, he begins his letter to Luttrell by dropping all sorts of names (not that mentioning Randy Wade will get him anywhere). That supports the “Do you know who I am” mentality.

So. If the light wasn’t out, the deputy gets reprimanded and a few days off. If the light was on, Ole Amp gets charged with the light law, plus filing a false police report, and hopefully slapped with a civil lawsuit by the officer. We shall see….but if it doesn’t go Thud’s way, be prepared to find that information somewhere else, because it will disappear from this blog just like Gwen Smith, Sammis, and all the rest of Thud’s bullcrap stories.

First of all, because it makes such a huge difference to you and you seem to think only black people would defend Mr. Elmore, I want to let you know that I'm white. Most of us don't think like you.

Secondly,I know it's a violation, but a minor one. I would expect my public servant to give me a courtesy warning that my tail light was out, not write me a ticket.

Thirdly, you're a racist idiot.

Anonymous said...

Yes, all SCSD cars are equipped with cameras. These cameras cannot be tampered with. The tapes cannot be tampered with because they are in a specially locked compartment in the trunks of the cars. The deputies, in no way can tamper with this equipment. The new sub-station in Arlington is equipped with a special program that automatically downloads all information from the computers and cameras as soon as the cars pull onto the lot. Nothing can be done to prevent the information recorded from being downloaded if the officer in question has done something wrong. And name dropping doesn't always work. I know because I have tried. My husband, nephew and brother-in-law all owrk for the sheriff's department. One particular officer pulled me over for a seatbelt violation. Dropping names didn't help me even though the officer knew my husband, nephew and brother in law. Maybe the officer in question had a very good reason for stopping Amp. Like a broken tail light.

So. If the light wasn’t out, the deputy gets reprimanded and a few days off. If the light was on, Ole Amp gets charged with the light law, plus filing a false police report, and hopefully slapped with a civil lawsuit by the officer. We shall see….but if it doesn’t go Thud’s way, be prepared to find that information somewhere else, because it will disappear from this blog just like Gwen Smith, Sammis, and all the rest of Thud’s bullcrap stories.

First of all, because it makes such a huge difference to you and you seem to think only black people would defend Mr. Elmore, I want to let you know that I'm white. Most of us don't think like you.

Secondly,I know it's a violation, but a minor one. I would expect my public servant to give me a courtesy warning that my tail light was out, not write me a ticket.

Thirdly, you're a racist idiot.

Yes, all SCSD cars are equipped with cameras. These cameras cannot be tampered with. The tapes cannot be tampered with because they are in a specially locked compartment in the trunks of the cars. The deputies, in no way can tamper with this equipment. The new sub-station in Arlington is equipped with a special program that automatically downloads all information from the computers and cameras as soon as the cars pull onto the lot. Nothing can be done to prevent the information recorded from being downloaded if the officer in question has done something wrong. And name dropping doesn't always work. I know because I have tried. My husband, nephew and brother-in-law all owrk for the sheriff's department. One particular officer pulled me over for a seatbelt violation. Dropping names didn't help me even though the officer knew my husband, nephew and brother in law. Maybe the officer in question had a very good reason for stopping Amp. Like a broken tail light.

Thaddeus do you know what type of car Anthony was driving? Usually the PoPo's pull black men over who have expensive cars. If he had an expensive car in a White neighborhood then I believe he was racially profiled.

Well Mr. Thad, this is a rich one.

You have one brother trying to "one up" another brother and it didn't quite work out for either! Everyone walked away so that much is good news! No mace, no taser, no shooting, and no major beat down.

"I know so and so.....You don't know who I am.....You don't know my position.....You don't know my dog's name....."
In the end it is only Rep. Larry Miller(Gail Jones Carson's former squeeze, who got pissed because he dumped her, and she in turn is your pal) who gets drug through the mud. Fishy tale here. You still owe her for that paperwork on Becton she passed you at that Democrat club meeting don't you?

The office of political correctness, I mean Sheriff IAB, will get to the bottom of this. That is until they find out this is politically motivated and it gets buried.

Miller has done a lot for the community......such as getting a law passed through, to allow people to collect dead animals off the street to eat. Dogs, cats, raccoons, skunks, goats, no difference. Free food for everybody....some of it aged!

By the way....did "Amp" ever turn in his special deputy badge and ID and confiscated gun, that Gilless and Randy "Redbone" Wade gave him?

How do you feel about Rev. Kenneth Whalum's idea of a strong black man for Superintendent of Schools? I strongly support it myself. Makes good sense too. Let us hope he doesn't go for Iranian muff.

It definitely sounds to me like Mr. Elmore has a legitimate complaint and that he is going through the proper channels to address his concerns.

Though I don't know Mr. Elmore personally, I've read about him over the years, including stories about his art collection and his beautiful and unique home. I always thought he was someone I would like to meet.

I hope that this situation is addressed and resolved quickly by the sheriff's department. The citizens of Memphis should not and will not tolerate racial profiling or harassment by our public servants.

I would like to say to you, Thaddeus, that this is exactly the kind of case where you can be a champion for the cause. Your source for this story is a reliable one, and you wrote about it in a fairly unbiased and non-inflammatory way.

And I also noticed an improvement in your writing, spelling, punctuation, grammar and capitalization. I don't say that to be condescending, but because it is true and makes your blog easier to read.

Why not stop somebody that actually did have their lights out or had no license? Why stop somebody who is obviously a strong, productive member of the community instead of all the losers that need to be stopped?

Having fulfilled the long list of licenses fees and requirements(insurance), wouldn't it be a better idea not to stop a guy who is actually out there working and contributing, paying taxes? Why make this an unpleasant night for the guy and his wife? We should indeed encourage guys like Mr. Elmore to stay here and at least afford them a modicum of respect and dignity.

It is an insult to intelligence to tell a guy his light is out when everybody clearly knows it's not. This smacks of intimidation tactics.

Let’s analyze this for what it is.

It should be easy to determine if the light was out. SO cars have cameras. The deputies know this, so the officer would be dumb to stop someone without a violation. IF that happened, fine, he should get what he deserves.

But, it looks a whole lot like some pissed off well-to-do guy who thinks the law doesn’t apply to him. He also has a big black chip on his shoulder. Why do I say that? Because if you’ll notice he only copied selected black members of the County Commission. Next, he begins his letter to Luttrell by dropping all sorts of names (not that mentioning Randy Wade will get him anywhere). That supports the “Do you know who I am” mentality.

Well Mr. Thad, this is a rich one.

You have one brother trying to "one up" another brother and it didn't quite work out for either! Everyone walked away so that much is good news! No mace, no taser, no shooting, and no major beat down.

"I know so and so.....You don't know who I am.....You don't know my position.....You don't know my dog's name....."
In the end it is only Rep. Larry Miller(Gail Jones Carson's former squeeze, who got pissed because he dumped her, and she in turn is your pal) who gets drug through the mud. Fishy tale here. You still owe her for that paperwork on Becton she passed you at that Democrat club meeting don't you?

The office of political correctness, I mean Sheriff IAB, will get to the bottom of this. That is until they find out this is politically motivated and it gets buried.

Miller has done a lot for the community......such as getting a law passed through, to allow people to collect dead animals off the street to eat. Dogs, cats, raccoons, skunks, goats, no difference. Free food for everybody....some of it aged!

By the way....did "Amp" ever turn in his special deputy badge and ID and confiscated gun, that Gilless and Randy "Redbone" Wade gave him?

How do you feel about Rev. Kenneth Whalum's idea of a strong black man for Superintendent of Schools? I strongly support it myself. Makes good sense too. Let us hope he doesn't go for Iranian muff.

It definitely sounds to me like Mr. Elmore has a legitimate complaint and that he is going through the proper channels to address his concerns.

Though I don't know Mr. Elmore personally, I've read about him over the years, including stories about his art collection and his beautiful and unique home. I always thought he was someone I would like to meet.

I hope that this situation is addressed and resolved quickly by the sheriff's department. The citizens of Memphis should not and will not tolerate racial profiling or harassment by our public servants.

I would like to say to you, Thaddeus, that this is exactly the kind of case where you can be a champion for the cause. Your source for this story is a reliable one, and you wrote about it in a fairly unbiased and non-inflammatory way.

And I also noticed an improvement in your writing, spelling, punctuation, grammar and capitalization. I don't say that to be condescending, but because it is true and makes your blog easier to read.

His beautiful and unique home is something that the tax assessor should look into. It's almost 5,000square feet with an assessed value of $169,000 or about $34.00 per square foot.

Why not stop somebody that actually did have their lights out or had no license? Why stop somebody who is obviously a strong, productive member of the community instead of all the losers that need to be stopped?

Having fulfilled the long list of licenses fees and requirements(insurance), wouldn't it be a better idea not to stop a guy who is actually out there working and contributing, paying taxes? Why make this an unpleasant night for the guy and his wife? We should indeed encourage guys like Mr. Elmore to stay here and at least afford them a modicum of respect and dignity.

It is an insult to intelligence to tell a guy his light is out when everybody clearly knows it's not. This smacks of intimidation tactics.

Your judgment is so clouded by hate that you can't let yourself see the truth. This officer may have been exactly like you--a racist who takes every opportunity to put a black man in his place.

Mr. Elmore is a very active and visible member of the community, and he deals with people of every color on a daily basis. I believe that he would be able to discern whether the officer was prejudiced toward him.

You just stop talking then, accept the ticket and go to court?

Let’s analyze this for what it is.

It should be easy to determine if the light was out. SO cars have cameras. The deputies know this, so the officer would be dumb to stop someone without a violation. IF that happened, fine, he should get what he deserves.

But, it looks a whole lot like some pissed off well-to-do guy who thinks the law doesn’t apply to him. He also has a big black chip on his shoulder. Why do I say that? Because if you’ll notice he only copied selected black members of the County Commission. Next, he begins his letter to Luttrell by dropping all sorts of names (not that mentioning Randy Wade will get him anywhere). That supports the “Do you know who I am” mentality.

So. If the light wasn’t out, the deputy gets reprimanded and a few days off. If the light was on, Ole Amp gets charged with the light law, plus filing a false police report, and hopefully slapped with a civil lawsuit by the officer. We shall see….but if it doesn’t go Thud’s way, be prepared to find that information somewhere else, because it will disappear from this blog just like Gwen Smith, Sammis, and all the rest of Thud’s bullcrap stories.

His beautiful and unique home is something that the tax assessor should look into. It's almost 5,000square feet with an assessed value of $169,000 or about $34.00 per square foot.

This is the problem with the city. A local sports celeb and business owner, someone who adds flavor and charm to our city, Amp is stopped for no damn reason.

Why not stop somebody that actually did have their lights out or had no license? Why stop somebody who is obviously a strong, productive member of the community instead of all the losers that need to be stopped?

Having fulfilled the long list of licenses fees and requirements(insurance), wouldn't it be a better idea not to stop a guy who is actually out there working and contributing, paying taxes? Why make this an unpleasant night for the guy and his wife? We should indeed encourage guys like Mr. Elmore to stay here and at least afford them a modicum of respect and dignity.

It is an insult to intelligence to tell a guy his light is out when everybody clearly knows it's not. This smacks of intimidation tactics.

Your judgment is so clouded by hate that you can't let yourself see the truth. This officer may have been exactly like you--a racist who takes every opportunity to put a black man in his place.

Mr. Elmore is a very active and visible member of the community, and he deals with people of every color on a daily basis. I believe that he would be able to discern whether the officer was prejudiced toward him.

You just stop talking then, accept the ticket and go to court?

Let’s analyze this for what it is.

It should be easy to determine if the light was out. SO cars have cameras. The deputies know this, so the officer would be dumb to stop someone without a violation. IF that happened, fine, he should get what he deserves.

But, it looks a whole lot like some pissed off well-to-do guy who thinks the law doesn’t apply to him. He also has a big black chip on his shoulder. Why do I say that? Because if you’ll notice he only copied selected black members of the County Commission. Next, he begins his letter to Luttrell by dropping all sorts of names (not that mentioning Randy Wade will get him anywhere). That supports the “Do you know who I am” mentality.

So. If the light wasn’t out, the deputy gets reprimanded and a few days off. If the light was on, Ole Amp gets charged with the light law, plus filing a false police report, and hopefully slapped with a civil lawsuit by the officer. We shall see….but if it doesn’t go Thud’s way, be prepared to find that information somewhere else, because it will disappear from this blog just like Gwen Smith, Sammis, and all the rest of Thud’s bullcrap stories.

Well Mr. Thad, this is a rich one.

You have one brother trying to "one up" another brother and it didn't quite work out for either! Everyone walked away so that much is good news! No mace, no taser, no shooting, and no major beat down.

"I know so and so.....You don't know who I am.....You don't know my position.....You don't know my dog's name....."
In the end it is only Rep. Larry Miller(Gail Jones Carson's former squeeze, who got pissed because he dumped her, and she in turn is your pal) who gets drug through the mud. Fishy tale here. You still owe her for that paperwork on Becton she passed you at that Democrat club meeting don't you?

The office of political correctness, I mean Sheriff IAB, will get to the bottom of this. That is until they find out this is politically motivated and it gets buried.

Miller has done a lot for the community......such as getting a law passed through, to allow people to collect dead animals off the street to eat. Dogs, cats, raccoons, skunks, goats, no difference. Free food for everybody....some of it aged!

By the way....did "Amp" ever turn in his special deputy badge and ID and confiscated gun, that Gilless and Randy "Redbone" Wade gave him?

How do you feel about Rev. Kenneth Whalum's idea of a strong black man for Superintendent of Schools? I strongly support it myself. Makes good sense too. Let us hope he doesn't go for Iranian muff.

I hope that this situation is addressed and resolved quickly by the sheriff's department. The citizens of Memphis should not and will not tolerate racial profiling or harassment by our public servants.

I would like to say to you, Thaddeus, that this is exactly the kind of case where you can be a champion for the cause. Your source for this story is a reliable one, and you wrote about it in a fairly unbiased and non-inflammatory way.

And I also noticed an improvement in your writing, spelling, punctuation, grammar and capitalization. I don't say that to be condescending, but because it is true and makes your blog easier to read.

Having fulfilled the long list of licenses fees and requirements(insurance), wouldn't it be a better idea not to stop a guy who is actually out there working and contributing, paying taxes? Why make this an unpleasant night for the guy and his wife? We should indeed encourage guys like Mr. Elmore to stay here and at least afford them a modicum of respect and dignity.

It is an insult to intelligence to tell a guy his light is out when everybody clearly knows it's not. This smacks of intimidation tactics.

The erosion of our rights and liberties is here, look around you.

And this is what you want our local officers of the law to spend their time and effort doing--stopping citizens for a non-working brake light?

Your judgment is so clouded by hate that you can't let yourself see the truth. This officer may have been exactly like you--a racist who takes every opportunity to put a black man in his place.

Mr. Elmore is a very active and visible member of the community, and he deals with people of every color on a daily basis. I believe that he would be able to discern whether the officer was prejudiced toward him.

OK you ignorant racist, say you were driving down the road, not speeding, hadn't violated any traffic law that you're aware of, and you get pulled over by a black policeman.

He asks for your license, and you ask why you are being pulled over. He refuses to tell you.

You just stop talking then, accept the ticket and go to court?

Who do you expect to believe that?

Policemen are public servants.

Mr. Elmore is a citizen and taxpayer.

Having a tail light out is no reason for a public servant to harass a citizen.

Let’s analyze this for what it is.

It should be easy to determine if the light was out. SO cars have cameras. The deputies know this, so the officer would be dumb to stop someone without a violation. IF that happened, fine, he should get what he deserves.

But, it looks a whole lot like some pissed off well-to-do guy who thinks the law doesn’t apply to him. He also has a big black chip on his shoulder. Why do I say that? Because if you’ll notice he only copied selected black members of the County Commission. Next, he begins his letter to Luttrell by dropping all sorts of names (not that mentioning Randy Wade will get him anywhere). That supports the “Do you know who I am” mentality.

So. If the light wasn’t out, the deputy gets reprimanded and a few days off. If the light was on, Ole Amp gets charged with the light law, plus filing a false police report, and hopefully slapped with a civil lawsuit by the officer. We shall see….but if it doesn’t go Thud’s way, be prepared to find that information somewhere else, because it will disappear from this blog just like Gwen Smith, Sammis, and all the rest of Thud’s bullcrap stories.

Well Mr. Thad, this is a rich one.

You have one brother trying to "one up" another brother and it didn't quite work out for either! Everyone walked away so that much is good news! No mace, no taser, no shooting, and no major beat down.

"I know so and so.....You don't know who I am.....You don't know my position.....You don't know my dog's name....."
In the end it is only Rep. Larry Miller(Gail Jones Carson's former squeeze, who got pissed because he dumped her, and she in turn is your pal) who gets drug through the mud. Fishy tale here. You still owe her for that paperwork on Becton she passed you at that Democrat club meeting don't you?

The office of political correctness, I mean Sheriff IAB, will get to the bottom of this. That is until they find out this is politically motivated and it gets buried.

Miller has done a lot for the community......such as getting a law passed through, to allow people to collect dead animals off the street to eat. Dogs, cats, raccoons, skunks, goats, no difference. Free food for everybody....some of it aged!

By the way....did "Amp" ever turn in his special deputy badge and ID and confiscated gun, that Gilless and Randy "Redbone" Wade gave him?

How do you feel about Rev. Kenneth Whalum's idea of a strong black man for Superintendent of Schools? I strongly support it myself. Makes good sense too. Let us hope he doesn't go for Iranian muff.

It definitely sounds to me like Mr. Elmore has a legitimate complaint and that he is going through the proper channels to address his concerns.

Though I don't know Mr. Elmore personally, I've read about him over the years, including stories about his art collection and his beautiful and unique home. I always thought he was someone I would like to meet.

I hope that this situation is addressed and resolved quickly by the sheriff's department. The citizens of Memphis should not and will not tolerate racial profiling or harassment by our public servants.

I would like to say to you, Thaddeus, that this is exactly the kind of case where you can be a champion for the cause. Your source for this story is a reliable one, and you wrote about it in a fairly unbiased and non-inflammatory way.

And I also noticed an improvement in your writing, spelling, punctuation, grammar and capitalization. I don't say that to be condescending, but because it is true and makes your blog easier to read.

And this is what you want our local officers of the law to spend their time and effort doing--stopping citizens for a non-working brake light?

Your judgment is so clouded by hate that you can't let yourself see the truth. This officer may have been exactly like you--a racist who takes every opportunity to put a black man in his place.

Mr. Elmore is a very active and visible member of the community, and he deals with people of every color on a daily basis. I believe that he would be able to discern whether the officer was prejudiced toward him.

OK you ignorant racist, say you were driving down the road, not speeding, hadn't violated any traffic law that you're aware of, and you get pulled over by a black policeman.

He asks for your license, and you ask why you are being pulled over. He refuses to tell you.

You just stop talking then, accept the ticket and go to court?

Who do you expect to believe that?

Policemen are public servants.

Mr. Elmore is a citizen and taxpayer.

Having a tail light out is no reason for a public servant to harass a citizen.

Let’s analyze this for what it is.

It should be easy to determine if the light was out. SO cars have cameras. The deputies know this, so the officer would be dumb to stop someone without a violation. IF that happened, fine, he should get what he deserves.

But, it looks a whole lot like some pissed off well-to-do guy who thinks the law doesn’t apply to him. He also has a big black chip on his shoulder. Why do I say that? Because if you’ll notice he only copied selected black members of the County Commission. Next, he begins his letter to Luttrell by dropping all sorts of names (not that mentioning Randy Wade will get him anywhere). That supports the “Do you know who I am” mentality.

So. If the light wasn’t out, the deputy gets reprimanded and a few days off. If the light was on, Ole Amp gets charged with the light law, plus filing a false police report, and hopefully slapped with a civil lawsuit by the officer. We shall see….but if it doesn’t go Thud’s way, be prepared to find that information somewhere else, because it will disappear from this blog just like Gwen Smith, Sammis, and all the rest of Thud’s bullcrap stories.

Thaddeus do you know what type of car Anthony was driving? Usually the PoPo's pull black men over who have expensive cars. If he had an expensive car in a White neighborhood then I believe he was racially profiled.

Well Mr. Thad, this is a rich one.

You have one brother trying to "one up" another brother and it didn't quite work out for either! Everyone walked away so that much is good news! No mace, no taser, no shooting, and no major beat down.

"I know so and so.....You don't know who I am.....You don't know my position.....You don't know my dog's name....."
In the end it is only Rep. Larry Miller(Gail Jones Carson's former squeeze, who got pissed because he dumped her, and she in turn is your pal) who gets drug through the mud. Fishy tale here. You still owe her for that paperwork on Becton she passed you at that Democrat club meeting don't you?

The office of political correctness, I mean Sheriff IAB, will get to the bottom of this. That is until they find out this is politically motivated and it gets buried.

Miller has done a lot for the community......such as getting a law passed through, to allow people to collect dead animals off the street to eat. Dogs, cats, raccoons, skunks, goats, no difference. Free food for everybody....some of it aged!

By the way....did "Amp" ever turn in his special deputy badge and ID and confiscated gun, that Gilless and Randy "Redbone" Wade gave him?

How do you feel about Rev. Kenneth Whalum's idea of a strong black man for Superintendent of Schools? I strongly support it myself. Makes good sense too. Let us hope he doesn't go for Iranian muff.

It definitely sounds to me like Mr. Elmore has a legitimate complaint and that he is going through the proper channels to address his concerns.

Though I don't know Mr. Elmore personally, I've read about him over the years, including stories about his art collection and his beautiful and unique home. I always thought he was someone I would like to meet.

I hope that this situation is addressed and resolved quickly by the sheriff's department. The citizens of Memphis should not and will not tolerate racial profiling or harassment by our public servants.

I would like to say to you, Thaddeus, that this is exactly the kind of case where you can be a champion for the cause. Your source for this story is a reliable one, and you wrote about it in a fairly unbiased and non-inflammatory way.

And I also noticed an improvement in your writing, spelling, punctuation, grammar and capitalization. I don't say that to be condescending, but because it is true and makes your blog easier to read.

Why not stop somebody that actually did have their lights out or had no license? Why stop somebody who is obviously a strong, productive member of the community instead of all the losers that need to be stopped?

Having fulfilled the long list of licenses fees and requirements(insurance), wouldn't it be a better idea not to stop a guy who is actually out there working and contributing, paying taxes? Why make this an unpleasant night for the guy and his wife? We should indeed encourage guys like Mr. Elmore to stay here and at least afford them a modicum of respect and dignity.

It is an insult to intelligence to tell a guy his light is out when everybody clearly knows it's not. This smacks of intimidation tactics.

Secondly,I know it's a violation, but a minor one. I would expect my public servant to give me a courtesy warning that my tail light was out, not write me a ticket.

Thirdly, you're a racist idiot.

Yes, all SCSD cars are equipped with cameras. These cameras cannot be tampered with. The tapes cannot be tampered with because they are in a specially locked compartment in the trunks of the cars. The deputies, in no way can tamper with this equipment. The new sub-station in Arlington is equipped with a special program that automatically downloads all information from the computers and cameras as soon as the cars pull onto the lot. Nothing can be done to prevent the information recorded from being downloaded if the officer in question has done something wrong. And name dropping doesn't always work. I know because I have tried. My husband, nephew and brother-in-law all owrk for the sheriff's department. One particular officer pulled me over for a seatbelt violation. Dropping names didn't help me even though the officer knew my husband, nephew and brother in law. Maybe the officer in question had a very good reason for stopping Amp. Like a broken tail light.

Thaddeus,

I'm so glad you erased that ASS CLOWN posting. Now lets get back to blogging.

Thaddeus do you know what type of car Anthony was driving? Usually the PoPo's pull black men over who have expensive cars. If he had an expensive car in a White neighborhood then I believe he was racially profiled.

Well Mr. Thad, this is a rich one.

You have one brother trying to "one up" another brother and it didn't quite work out for either! Everyone walked away so that much is good news! No mace, no taser, no shooting, and no major beat down.

"I know so and so.....You don't know who I am.....You don't know my position.....You don't know my dog's name....."
In the end it is only Rep. Larry Miller(Gail Jones Carson's former squeeze, who got pissed because he dumped her, and she in turn is your pal) who gets drug through the mud. Fishy tale here. You still owe her for that paperwork on Becton she passed you at that Democrat club meeting don't you?

The office of political correctness, I mean Sheriff IAB, will get to the bottom of this. That is until they find out this is politically motivated and it gets buried.

Miller has done a lot for the community......such as getting a law passed through, to allow people to collect dead animals off the street to eat. Dogs, cats, raccoons, skunks, goats, no difference. Free food for everybody....some of it aged!

By the way....did "Amp" ever turn in his special deputy badge and ID and confiscated gun, that Gilless and Randy "Redbone" Wade gave him?

How do you feel about Rev. Kenneth Whalum's idea of a strong black man for Superintendent of Schools? I strongly support it myself. Makes good sense too. Let us hope he doesn't go for Iranian muff.

It definitely sounds to me like Mr. Elmore has a legitimate complaint and that he is going through the proper channels to address his concerns.

Though I don't know Mr. Elmore personally, I've read about him over the years, including stories about his art collection and his beautiful and unique home. I always thought he was someone I would like to meet.

I hope that this situation is addressed and resolved quickly by the sheriff's department. The citizens of Memphis should not and will not tolerate racial profiling or harassment by our public servants.

I would like to say to you, Thaddeus, that this is exactly the kind of case where you can be a champion for the cause. Your source for this story is a reliable one, and you wrote about it in a fairly unbiased and non-inflammatory way.

And I also noticed an improvement in your writing, spelling, punctuation, grammar and capitalization. I don't say that to be condescending, but because it is true and makes your blog easier to read.

His beautiful and unique home is something that the tax assessor should look into. It's almost 5,000square feet with an assessed value of $169,000 or about $34.00 per square foot.

Why not stop somebody that actually did have their lights out or had no license? Why stop somebody who is obviously a strong, productive member of the community instead of all the losers that need to be stopped?

Having fulfilled the long list of licenses fees and requirements(insurance), wouldn't it be a better idea not to stop a guy who is actually out there working and contributing, paying taxes? Why make this an unpleasant night for the guy and his wife? We should indeed encourage guys like Mr. Elmore to stay here and at least afford them a modicum of respect and dignity.

It is an insult to intelligence to tell a guy his light is out when everybody clearly knows it's not. This smacks of intimidation tactics.

Your judgment is so clouded by hate that you can't let yourself see the truth. This officer may have been exactly like you--a racist who takes every opportunity to put a black man in his place.

Mr. Elmore is a very active and visible member of the community, and he deals with people of every color on a daily basis. I believe that he would be able to discern whether the officer was prejudiced toward him.

Let’s analyze this for what it is.

It should be easy to determine if the light was out. SO cars have cameras. The deputies know this, so the officer would be dumb to stop someone without a violation. IF that happened, fine, he should get what he deserves.

But, it looks a whole lot like some pissed off well-to-do guy who thinks the law doesn’t apply to him. He also has a big black chip on his shoulder. Why do I say that? Because if you’ll notice he only copied selected black members of the County Commission. Next, he begins his letter to Luttrell by dropping all sorts of names (not that mentioning Randy Wade will get him anywhere). That supports the “Do you know who I am” mentality.

So. If the light wasn’t out, the deputy gets reprimanded and a few days off. If the light was on, Ole Amp gets charged with the light law, plus filing a false police report, and hopefully slapped with a civil lawsuit by the officer. We shall see….but if it doesn’t go Thud’s way, be prepared to find that information somewhere else, because it will disappear from this blog just like Gwen Smith, Sammis, and all the rest of Thud’s bullcrap stories.

I would like to say to you, Thaddeus, that this is exactly the kind of case where you can be a champion for the cause. Your source for this story is a reliable one, and you wrote about it in a fairly unbiased and non-inflammatory way.

And I also noticed an improvement in your writing, spelling, punctuation, grammar and capitalization. I don't say that to be condescending, but because it is true and makes your blog easier to read.

His beautiful and unique home is something that the tax assessor should look into. It's almost 5,000square feet with an assessed value of $169,000 or about $34.00 per square foot.

Why not stop somebody that actually did have their lights out or had no license? Why stop somebody who is obviously a strong, productive member of the community instead of all the losers that need to be stopped?

Having fulfilled the long list of licenses fees and requirements(insurance), wouldn't it be a better idea not to stop a guy who is actually out there working and contributing, paying taxes? Why make this an unpleasant night for the guy and his wife? We should indeed encourage guys like Mr. Elmore to stay here and at least afford them a modicum of respect and dignity.

It is an insult to intelligence to tell a guy his light is out when everybody clearly knows it's not. This smacks of intimidation tactics.

Your judgment is so clouded by hate that you can't let yourself see the truth. This officer may have been exactly like you--a racist who takes every opportunity to put a black man in his place.

Mr. Elmore is a very active and visible member of the community, and he deals with people of every color on a daily basis. I believe that he would be able to discern whether the officer was prejudiced toward him.

You just stop talking then, accept the ticket and go to court?

Policemen are public servants.

Having a tail light out is no reason for a public servant to harass a citizen.

Let’s analyze this for what it is.

It should be easy to determine if the light was out. SO cars have cameras. The deputies know this, so the officer would be dumb to stop someone without a violation. IF that happened, fine, he should get what he deserves.

But, it looks a whole lot like some pissed off well-to-do guy who thinks the law doesn’t apply to him. He also has a big black chip on his shoulder. Why do I say that? Because if you’ll notice he only copied selected black members of the County Commission. Next, he begins his letter to Luttrell by dropping all sorts of names (not that mentioning Randy Wade will get him anywhere). That supports the “Do you know who I am” mentality.

So. If the light wasn’t out, the deputy gets reprimanded and a few days off. If the light was on, Ole Amp gets charged with the light law, plus filing a false police report, and hopefully slapped with a civil lawsuit by the officer. We shall see….but if it doesn’t go Thud’s way, be prepared to find that information somewhere else, because it will disappear from this blog just like Gwen Smith, Sammis, and all the rest of Thud’s bullcrap stories.

First of all, because it makes such a huge difference to you and you seem to think only black people would defend Mr. Elmore, I want to let you know that I'm white. Most of us don't think like you.

Secondly,I know it's a violation, but a minor one. I would expect my public servant to give me a courtesy warning that my tail light was out, not write me a ticket.

Thirdly, you're a racist idiot.

You have one brother trying to "one up" another brother and it didn't quite work out for either! Everyone walked away so that much is good news! No mace, no taser, no shooting, and no major beat down.

"I know so and so.....You don't know who I am.....You don't know my position.....You don't know my dog's name....."
In the end it is only Rep. Larry Miller(Gail Jones Carson's former squeeze, who got pissed because he dumped her, and she in turn is your pal) who gets drug through the mud. Fishy tale here. You still owe her for that paperwork on Becton she passed you at that Democrat club meeting don't you?

The office of political correctness, I mean Sheriff IAB, will get to the bottom of this. That is until they find out this is politically motivated and it gets buried.

Miller has done a lot for the community......such as getting a law passed through, to allow people to collect dead animals off the street to eat. Dogs, cats, raccoons, skunks, goats, no difference. Free food for everybody....some of it aged!

By the way....did "Amp" ever turn in his special deputy badge and ID and confiscated gun, that Gilless and Randy "Redbone" Wade gave him?

How do you feel about Rev. Kenneth Whalum's idea of a strong black man for Superintendent of Schools? I strongly support it myself. Makes good sense too. Let us hope he doesn't go for Iranian muff.

This is the problem with the city. A local sports celeb and business owner, someone who adds flavor and charm to our city, Amp is stopped for no damn reason.

Why not stop somebody that actually did have their lights out or had no license? Why stop somebody who is obviously a strong, productive member of the community instead of all the losers that need to be stopped?

Having fulfilled the long list of licenses fees and requirements(insurance), wouldn't it be a better idea not to stop a guy who is actually out there working and contributing, paying taxes? Why make this an unpleasant night for the guy and his wife? We should indeed encourage guys like Mr. Elmore to stay here and at least afford them a modicum of respect and dignity.

It is an insult to intelligence to tell a guy his light is out when everybody clearly knows it's not. This smacks of intimidation tactics.

And this is what you want our local officers of the law to spend their time and effort doing--stopping citizens for a non-working brake light?

Your judgment is so clouded by hate that you can't let yourself see the truth. This officer may have been exactly like you--a racist who takes every opportunity to put a black man in his place.

Mr. Elmore is a very active and visible member of the community, and he deals with people of every color on a daily basis. I believe that he would be able to discern whether the officer was prejudiced toward him.

He asks for your license, and you ask why you are being pulled over. He refuses to tell you.

You just stop talking then, accept the ticket and go to court?

Having a tail light out is no reason for a public servant to harass a citizen.

Let’s analyze this for what it is.

It should be easy to determine if the light was out. SO cars have cameras. The deputies know this, so the officer would be dumb to stop someone without a violation. IF that happened, fine, he should get what he deserves.

But, it looks a whole lot like some pissed off well-to-do guy who thinks the law doesn’t apply to him. He also has a big black chip on his shoulder. Why do I say that? Because if you’ll notice he only copied selected black members of the County Commission. Next, he begins his letter to Luttrell by dropping all sorts of names (not that mentioning Randy Wade will get him anywhere). That supports the “Do you know who I am” mentality.

So. If the light wasn’t out, the deputy gets reprimanded and a few days off. If the light was on, Ole Amp gets charged with the light law, plus filing a false police report, and hopefully slapped with a civil lawsuit by the officer. We shall see….but if it doesn’t go Thud’s way, be prepared to find that information somewhere else, because it will disappear from this blog just like Gwen Smith, Sammis, and all the rest of Thud’s bullcrap stories.

Well Mr. Thad, this is a rich one.

You have one brother trying to "one up" another brother and it didn't quite work out for either! Everyone walked away so that much is good news! No mace, no taser, no shooting, and no major beat down.

"I know so and so.....You don't know who I am.....You don't know my position.....You don't know my dog's name....."
In the end it is only Rep. Larry Miller(Gail Jones Carson's former squeeze, who got pissed because he dumped her, and she in turn is your pal) who gets drug through the mud. Fishy tale here. You still owe her for that paperwork on Becton she passed you at that Democrat club meeting don't you?

The office of political correctness, I mean Sheriff IAB, will get to the bottom of this. That is until they find out this is politically motivated and it gets buried.

Miller has done a lot for the community......such as getting a law passed through, to allow people to collect dead animals off the street to eat. Dogs, cats, raccoons, skunks, goats, no difference. Free food for everybody....some of it aged!

By the way....did "Amp" ever turn in his special deputy badge and ID and confiscated gun, that Gilless and Randy "Redbone" Wade gave him?

How do you feel about Rev. Kenneth Whalum's idea of a strong black man for Superintendent of Schools? I strongly support it myself. Makes good sense too. Let us hope he doesn't go for Iranian muff.

It definitely sounds to me like Mr. Elmore has a legitimate complaint and that he is going through the proper channels to address his concerns.

Though I don't know Mr. Elmore personally, I've read about him over the years, including stories about his art collection and his beautiful and unique home. I always thought he was someone I would like to meet.

I hope that this situation is addressed and resolved quickly by the sheriff's department. The citizens of Memphis should not and will not tolerate racial profiling or harassment by our public servants.

I would like to say to you, Thaddeus, that this is exactly the kind of case where you can be a champion for the cause. Your source for this story is a reliable one, and you wrote about it in a fairly unbiased and non-inflammatory way.

And I also noticed an improvement in your writing, spelling, punctuation, grammar and capitalization. I don't say that to be condescending, but because it is true and makes your blog easier to read.

Just another black trying to make something out of nothing. ANY white person would have "protested" the ticket, and if they felt they were right ... have gone to traffic court with their witness.

Interesting ... Was the "amp" a daddy at the age of 10????

I'll bet anything the brake light wasn't working.

And this is what you want our local officers of the law to spend their time and effort doing--stopping citizens for a non-working brake light?

Your judgment is so clouded by hate that you can't let yourself see the truth. This officer may have been exactly like you--a racist who takes every opportunity to put a black man in his place.

Mr. Elmore is a very active and visible member of the community, and he deals with people of every color on a daily basis. I believe that he would be able to discern whether the officer was prejudiced toward him.

OK you ignorant racist, say you were driving down the road, not speeding, hadn't violated any traffic law that you're aware of, and you get pulled over by a black policeman.

He asks for your license, and you ask why you are being pulled over. He refuses to tell you.

You just stop talking then, accept the ticket and go to court?

Who do you expect to believe that?

Having a tail light out is no reason for a public servant to harass a citizen.

Let’s analyze this for what it is.

It should be easy to determine if the light was out. SO cars have cameras. The deputies know this, so the officer would be dumb to stop someone without a violation. IF that happened, fine, he should get what he deserves.

But, it looks a whole lot like some pissed off well-to-do guy who thinks the law doesn’t apply to him. He also has a big black chip on his shoulder. Why do I say that? Because if you’ll notice he only copied selected black members of the County Commission. Next, he begins his letter to Luttrell by dropping all sorts of names (not that mentioning Randy Wade will get him anywhere). That supports the “Do you know who I am” mentality.

So. If the light wasn’t out, the deputy gets reprimanded and a few days off. If the light was on, Ole Amp gets charged with the light law, plus filing a false police report, and hopefully slapped with a civil lawsuit by the officer. We shall see….but if it doesn’t go Thud’s way, be prepared to find that information somewhere else, because it will disappear from this blog just like Gwen Smith, Sammis, and all the rest of Thud’s bullcrap stories.

Well Mr. Thad, this is a rich one.

You have one brother trying to "one up" another brother and it didn't quite work out for either! Everyone walked away so that much is good news! No mace, no taser, no shooting, and no major beat down.

"I know so and so.....You don't know who I am.....You don't know my position.....You don't know my dog's name....."
In the end it is only Rep. Larry Miller(Gail Jones Carson's former squeeze, who got pissed because he dumped her, and she in turn is your pal) who gets drug through the mud. Fishy tale here. You still owe her for that paperwork on Becton she passed you at that Democrat club meeting don't you?

The office of political correctness, I mean Sheriff IAB, will get to the bottom of this. That is until they find out this is politically motivated and it gets buried.

Miller has done a lot for the community......such as getting a law passed through, to allow people to collect dead animals off the street to eat. Dogs, cats, raccoons, skunks, goats, no difference. Free food for everybody....some of it aged!

By the way....did "Amp" ever turn in his special deputy badge and ID and confiscated gun, that Gilless and Randy "Redbone" Wade gave him?

How do you feel about Rev. Kenneth Whalum's idea of a strong black man for Superintendent of Schools? I strongly support it myself. Makes good sense too. Let us hope he doesn't go for Iranian muff.

It definitely sounds to me like Mr. Elmore has a legitimate complaint and that he is going through the proper channels to address his concerns.

Though I don't know Mr. Elmore personally, I've read about him over the years, including stories about his art collection and his beautiful and unique home. I always thought he was someone I would like to meet.

I hope that this situation is addressed and resolved quickly by the sheriff's department. The citizens of Memphis should not and will not tolerate racial profiling or harassment by our public servants.

I would like to say to you, Thaddeus, that this is exactly the kind of case where you can be a champion for the cause. Your source for this story is a reliable one, and you wrote about it in a fairly unbiased and non-inflammatory way.

And I also noticed an improvement in your writing, spelling, punctuation, grammar and capitalization. I don't say that to be condescending, but because it is true and makes your blog easier to read.

Why not stop somebody that actually did have their lights out or had no license? Why stop somebody who is obviously a strong, productive member of the community instead of all the losers that need to be stopped?

Having fulfilled the long list of licenses fees and requirements(insurance), wouldn't it be a better idea not to stop a guy who is actually out there working and contributing, paying taxes? Why make this an unpleasant night for the guy and his wife? We should indeed encourage guys like Mr. Elmore to stay here and at least afford them a modicum of respect and dignity.

It is an insult to intelligence to tell a guy his light is out when everybody clearly knows it's not. This smacks of intimidation tactics.

It should be easy to determine if the light was out. SO cars have cameras. The deputies know this, so the officer would be dumb to stop someone without a violation. IF that happened, fine, he should get what he deserves.

But, it looks a whole lot like some pissed off well-to-do guy who thinks the law doesn’t apply to him. He also has a big black chip on his shoulder. Why do I say that?

If the light was on, Ole Amp gets charged with the light law, plus filing a false police report, and hopefully slapped with a civil lawsuit by the officer. We shall see….but if it doesn’t go Thud’s way, be prepared to find that information somewhere else, because it will disappear from this blog just like Gwen Smith, Sammis, and all the rest of Thud’s bullcrap stories.

I'm so glad you erased that ASS CLOWN posting. Now lets get back to blogging.

Thaddeus do you know what type of car Anthony was driving? Usually the PoPo's pull black men over who have expensive cars. If he had an expensive car in a White neighborhood then I believe he was racially profiled.

Well Mr. Thad, this is a rich one.

You have one brother trying to "one up" another brother and it didn't quite work out for either! Everyone walked away so that much is good news! No mace, no taser, no shooting, and no major beat down.

"I know so and so.....You don't know who I am.....You don't know my position.....You don't know my dog's name....."
In the end it is only Rep. Larry Miller(Gail Jones Carson's former squeeze, who got pissed because he dumped her, and she in turn is your pal) who gets drug through the mud. Fishy tale here. You still owe her for that paperwork on Becton she passed you at that Democrat club meeting don't you?

The office of political correctness, I mean Sheriff IAB, will get to the bottom of this. That is until they find out this is politically motivated and it gets buried.

Miller has done a lot for the community......such as getting a law passed through, to allow people to collect dead animals off the street to eat. Dogs, cats, raccoons, skunks, goats, no difference. Free food for everybody....some of it aged!

By the way....did "Amp" ever turn in his special deputy badge and ID and confiscated gun, that Gilless and Randy "Redbone" Wade gave him?

How do you feel about Rev. Kenneth Whalum's idea of a strong black man for Superintendent of Schools? I strongly support it myself. Makes good sense too. Let us hope he doesn't go for Iranian muff.

It definitely sounds to me like Mr. Elmore has a legitimate complaint and that he is going through the proper channels to address his concerns.

Though I don't know Mr. Elmore personally, I've read about him over the years, including stories about his art collection and his beautiful and unique home. I always thought he was someone I would like to meet.

I hope that this situation is addressed and resolved quickly by the sheriff's department. The citizens of Memphis should not and will not tolerate racial profiling or harassment by our public servants.

I would like to say to you, Thaddeus, that this is exactly the kind of case where you can be a champion for the cause. Your source for this story is a reliable one, and you wrote about it in a fairly unbiased and non-inflammatory way.

And I also noticed an improvement in your writing, spelling, punctuation, grammar and capitalization. I don't say that to be condescending, but because it is true and makes your blog easier to read.

Why not stop somebody that actually did have their lights out or had no license? Why stop somebody who is obviously a strong, productive member of the community instead of all the losers that need to be stopped?

Having fulfilled the long list of licenses fees and requirements(insurance), wouldn't it be a better idea not to stop a guy who is actually out there working and contributing, paying taxes? Why make this an unpleasant night for the guy and his wife? We should indeed encourage guys like Mr. Elmore to stay here and at least afford them a modicum of respect and dignity.

It is an insult to intelligence to tell a guy his light is out when everybody clearly knows it's not. This smacks of intimidation tactics.

Let’s analyze this for what it is.

It should be easy to determine if the light was out. SO cars have cameras. The deputies know this, so the officer would be dumb to stop someone without a violation. IF that happened, fine, he should get what he deserves.

But, it looks a whole lot like some pissed off well-to-do guy who thinks the law doesn’t apply to him. He also has a big black chip on his shoulder. Why do I say that? Because if you’ll notice he only copied selected black members of the County Commission. Next, he begins his letter to Luttrell by dropping all sorts of names (not that mentioning Randy Wade will get him anywhere). That supports the “Do you know who I am” mentality.

Yes, all SCSD cars are equipped with cameras. These cameras cannot be tampered with. The tapes cannot be tampered with because they are in a specially locked compartment in the trunks of the cars. The deputies, in no way can tamper with this equipment. The new sub-station in Arlington is equipped with a special program that automatically downloads all information from the computers and cameras as soon as the cars pull onto the lot. Nothing can be done to prevent the information recorded from being downloaded if the officer in question has done something wrong. And name dropping doesn't always work. I know because I have tried. My husband, nephew and brother-in-law all owrk for the sheriff's department. One particular officer pulled me over for a seatbelt violation. Dropping names didn't help me even though the officer knew my husband, nephew and brother in law. Maybe the officer in question had a very good reason for stopping Amp. Like a broken tail light.

Well Mr. Thad, this is a rich one.

You have one brother trying to "one up" another brother and it didn't quite work out for either! Everyone walked away so that much is good news! No mace, no taser, no shooting, and no major beat down.

"I know so and so.....You don't know who I am.....You don't know my position.....You don't know my dog's name....."
In the end it is only Rep. Larry Miller(Gail Jones Carson's former squeeze, who got pissed because he dumped her, and she in turn is your pal) who gets drug through the mud. Fishy tale here. You still owe her for that paperwork on Becton she passed you at that Democrat club meeting don't you?

The office of political correctness, I mean Sheriff IAB, will get to the bottom of this. That is until they find out this is politically motivated and it gets buried.

Miller has done a lot for the community......such as getting a law passed through, to allow people to collect dead animals off the street to eat. Dogs, cats, raccoons, skunks, goats, no difference. Free food for everybody....some of it aged!

By the way....did "Amp" ever turn in his special deputy badge and ID and confiscated gun, that Gilless and Randy "Redbone" Wade gave him?

How do you feel about Rev. Kenneth Whalum's idea of a strong black man for Superintendent of Schools? I strongly support it myself. Makes good sense too. Let us hope he doesn't go for Iranian muff.

It definitely sounds to me like Mr. Elmore has a legitimate complaint and that he is going through the proper channels to address his concerns.

Though I don't know Mr. Elmore personally, I've read about him over the years, including stories about his art collection and his beautiful and unique home. I always thought he was someone I would like to meet.

I hope that this situation is addressed and resolved quickly by the sheriff's department. The citizens of Memphis should not and will not tolerate racial profiling or harassment by our public servants.

I would like to say to you, Thaddeus, that this is exactly the kind of case where you can be a champion for the cause. Your source for this story is a reliable one, and you wrote about it in a fairly unbiased and non-inflammatory way.

And I also noticed an improvement in your writing, spelling, punctuation, grammar and capitalization. I don't say that to be condescending, but because it is true and makes your blog easier to read.

His beautiful and unique home is something that the tax assessor should look into. It's almost 5,000square feet with an assessed value of $169,000 or about $34.00 per square foot.

Why not stop somebody that actually did have their lights out or had no license? Why stop somebody who is obviously a strong, productive member of the community instead of all the losers that need to be stopped?

Having fulfilled the long list of licenses fees and requirements(insurance), wouldn't it be a better idea not to stop a guy who is actually out there working and contributing, paying taxes? Why make this an unpleasant night for the guy and his wife? We should indeed encourage guys like Mr. Elmore to stay here and at least afford them a modicum of respect and dignity.

It is an insult to intelligence to tell a guy his light is out when everybody clearly knows it's not. This smacks of intimidation tactics.

Your judgment is so clouded by hate that you can't let yourself see the truth. This officer may have been exactly like you--a racist who takes every opportunity to put a black man in his place.

Mr. Elmore is a very active and visible member of the community, and he deals with people of every color on a daily basis. I believe that he would be able to discern whether the officer was prejudiced toward him.

Let’s analyze this for what it is.

It should be easy to determine if the light was out. SO cars have cameras. The deputies know this, so the officer would be dumb to stop someone without a violation. IF that happened, fine, he should get what he deserves.

But, it looks a whole lot like some pissed off well-to-do guy who thinks the law doesn’t apply to him. He also has a big black chip on his shoulder. Why do I say that? Because if you’ll notice he only copied selected black members of the County Commission. Next, he begins his letter to Luttrell by dropping all sorts of names (not that mentioning Randy Wade will get him anywhere). That supports the “Do you know who I am” mentality.

So. If the light wasn’t out, the deputy gets reprimanded and a few days off. If the light was on, Ole Amp gets charged with the light law, plus filing a false police report, and hopefully slapped with a civil lawsuit by the officer. We shall see….but if it doesn’t go Thud’s way, be prepared to find that information somewhere else, because it will disappear from this blog just like Gwen Smith, Sammis, and all the rest of Thud’s bullcrap stories.

His beautiful and unique home is something that the tax assessor should look into. It's almost 5,000square feet with an assessed value of $169,000 or about $34.00 per square foot.

This is the problem with the city. A local sports celeb and business owner, someone who adds flavor and charm to our city, Amp is stopped for no damn reason.

Why not stop somebody that actually did have their lights out or had no license? Why stop somebody who is obviously a strong, productive member of the community instead of all the losers that need to be stopped?

Having fulfilled the long list of licenses fees and requirements(insurance), wouldn't it be a better idea not to stop a guy who is actually out there working and contributing, paying taxes? Why make this an unpleasant night for the guy and his wife? We should indeed encourage guys like Mr. Elmore to stay here and at least afford them a modicum of respect and dignity.

It is an insult to intelligence to tell a guy his light is out when everybody clearly knows it's not. This smacks of intimidation tactics.

And this is what you want our local officers of the law to spend their time and effort doing--stopping citizens for a non-working brake light?

Your judgment is so clouded by hate that you can't let yourself see the truth. This officer may have been exactly like you--a racist who takes every opportunity to put a black man in his place.

Mr. Elmore is a very active and visible member of the community, and he deals with people of every color on a daily basis. I believe that he would be able to discern whether the officer was prejudiced toward him.

He asks for your license, and you ask why you are being pulled over. He refuses to tell you.

You just stop talking then, accept the ticket and go to court?

Policemen are public servants.

Having a tail light out is no reason for a public servant to harass a citizen.

Let’s analyze this for what it is.

It should be easy to determine if the light was out. SO cars have cameras. The deputies know this, so the officer would be dumb to stop someone without a violation. IF that happened, fine, he should get what he deserves.

But, it looks a whole lot like some pissed off well-to-do guy who thinks the law doesn’t apply to him. He also has a big black chip on his shoulder. Why do I say that? Because if you’ll notice he only copied selected black members of the County Commission. Next, he begins his letter to Luttrell by dropping all sorts of names (not that mentioning Randy Wade will get him anywhere). That supports the “Do you know who I am” mentality.

So. If the light wasn’t out, the deputy gets reprimanded and a few days off. If the light was on, Ole Amp gets charged with the light law, plus filing a false police report, and hopefully slapped with a civil lawsuit by the officer. We shall see….but if it doesn’t go Thud’s way, be prepared to find that information somewhere else, because it will disappear from this blog just like Gwen Smith, Sammis, and all the rest of Thud’s bullcrap stories.

First of all, because it makes such a huge difference to you and you seem to think only black people would defend Mr. Elmore, I want to let you know that I'm white. Most of us don't think like you.

Secondly,I know it's a violation, but a minor one. I would expect my public servant to give me a courtesy warning that my tail light was out, not write me a ticket.

Thirdly, you're a racist idiot.

Well Mr. Thad, this is a rich one.

You have one brother trying to "one up" another brother and it didn't quite work out for either! Everyone walked away so that much is good news! No mace, no taser, no shooting, and no major beat down.

"I know so and so.....You don't know who I am.....You don't know my position.....You don't know my dog's name....."
In the end it is only Rep. Larry Miller(Gail Jones Carson's former squeeze, who got pissed because he dumped her, and she in turn is your pal) who gets drug through the mud. Fishy tale here. You still owe her for that paperwork on Becton she passed you at that Democrat club meeting don't you?

The office of political correctness, I mean Sheriff IAB, will get to the bottom of this. That is until they find out this is politically motivated and it gets buried.

Miller has done a lot for the community......such as getting a law passed through, to allow people to collect dead animals off the street to eat. Dogs, cats, raccoons, skunks, goats, no difference. Free food for everybody....some of it aged!

By the way....did "Amp" ever turn in his special deputy badge and ID and confiscated gun, that Gilless and Randy "Redbone" Wade gave him?

How do you feel about Rev. Kenneth Whalum's idea of a strong black man for Superintendent of Schools? I strongly support it myself. Makes good sense too. Let us hope he doesn't go for Iranian muff.

I hope that this situation is addressed and resolved quickly by the sheriff's department. The citizens of Memphis should not and will not tolerate racial profiling or harassment by our public servants.

I would like to say to you, Thaddeus, that this is exactly the kind of case where you can be a champion for the cause. Your source for this story is a reliable one, and you wrote about it in a fairly unbiased and non-inflammatory way.

Having fulfilled the long list of licenses fees and requirements(insurance), wouldn't it be a better idea not to stop a guy who is actually out there working and contributing, paying taxes? Why make this an unpleasant night for the guy and his wife? We should indeed encourage guys like Mr. Elmore to stay here and at least afford them a modicum of respect and dignity.

It is an insult to intelligence to tell a guy his light is out when everybody clearly knows it's not. This smacks of intimidation tactics.

The erosion of our rights and liberties is here, look around you.

No real comment on this nonsense.

Just another black trying to make something out of nothing. ANY white person would have "protested" the ticket, and if they felt they were right ... have gone to traffic court with their witness.

Interesting ... Was the "amp" a daddy at the age of 10????

ps:

I'll bet anything the brake light wasn't working.

And this is what you want our local officers of the law to spend their time and effort doing--stopping citizens for a non-working brake light?

Your judgment is so clouded by hate that you can't let yourself see the truth. This officer may have been exactly like you--a racist who takes every opportunity to put a black man in his place.

Mr. Elmore is a very active and visible member of the community, and he deals with people of every color on a daily basis. I believe that he would be able to discern whether the officer was prejudiced toward him.

OK you ignorant racist, say you were driving down the road, not speeding, hadn't violated any traffic law that you're aware of, and you get pulled over by a black policeman.

He asks for your license, and you ask why you are being pulled over. He refuses to tell you.

You just stop talking then, accept the ticket and go to court?

Who do you expect to believe that?

Policemen are public servants.

Mr. Elmore is a citizen and taxpayer.

Having a tail light out is no reason for a public servant to harass a citizen.

Let’s analyze this for what it is.

It should be easy to determine if the light was out. SO cars have cameras. The deputies know this, so the officer would be dumb to stop someone without a violation. IF that happened, fine, he should get what he deserves.

But, it looks a whole lot like some pissed off well-to-do guy who thinks the law doesn’t apply to him. He also has a big black chip on his shoulder. Why do I say that? Because if you’ll notice he only copied selected black members of the County Commission. Next, he begins his letter to Luttrell by dropping all sorts of names (not that mentioning Randy Wade will get him anywhere). That supports the “Do you know who I am” mentality.

So. If the light wasn’t out, the deputy gets reprimanded and a few days off. If the light was on, Ole Amp gets charged with the light law, plus filing a false police report, and hopefully slapped with a civil lawsuit by the officer. We shall see….but if it doesn’t go Thud’s way, be prepared to find that information somewhere else, because it will disappear from this blog just like Gwen Smith, Sammis, and all the rest of Thud’s bullcrap stories.

Thaddeus,

I'm so glad you erased that ASS CLOWN posting. Now lets get back to blogging.

Thaddeus do you know what type of car Anthony was driving? Usually the PoPo's pull black men over who have expensive cars. If he had an expensive car in a White neighborhood then I believe he was racially profiled.

Well Mr. Thad, this is a rich one.

You have one brother trying to "one up" another brother and it didn't quite work out for either! Everyone walked away so that much is good news! No mace, no taser, no shooting, and no major beat down.

"I know so and so.....You don't know who I am.....You don't know my position.....You don't know my dog's name....."
In the end it is only Rep. Larry Miller(Gail Jones Carson's former squeeze, who got pissed because he dumped her, and she in turn is your pal) who gets drug through the mud. Fishy tale here. You still owe her for that paperwork on Becton she passed you at that Democrat club meeting don't you?

The office of political correctness, I mean Sheriff IAB, will get to the bottom of this. That is until they find out this is politically motivated and it gets buried.

Miller has done a lot for the community......such as getting a law passed through, to allow people to collect dead animals off the street to eat. Dogs, cats, raccoons, skunks, goats, no difference. Free food for everybody....some of it aged!

By the way....did "Amp" ever turn in his special deputy badge and ID and confiscated gun, that Gilless and Randy "Redbone" Wade gave him?

How do you feel about Rev. Kenneth Whalum's idea of a strong black man for Superintendent of Schools? I strongly support it myself. Makes good sense too. Let us hope he doesn't go for Iranian muff.

It definitely sounds to me like Mr. Elmore has a legitimate complaint and that he is going through the proper channels to address his concerns.

Though I don't know Mr. Elmore personally, I've read about him over the years, including stories about his art collection and his beautiful and unique home. I always thought he was someone I would like to meet.

I hope that this situation is addressed and resolved quickly by the sheriff's department. The citizens of Memphis should not and will not tolerate racial profiling or harassment by our public servants.

I would like to say to you, Thaddeus, that this is exactly the kind of case where you can be a champion for the cause. Your source for this story is a reliable one, and you wrote about it in a fairly unbiased and non-inflammatory way.

And I also noticed an improvement in your writing, spelling, punctuation, grammar and capitalization. I don't say that to be condescending, but because it is true and makes your blog easier to read.

His beautiful and unique home is something that the tax assessor should look into. It's almost 5,000square feet with an assessed value of $169,000 or about $34.00 per square foot.
