Right out of Uncle Joe's playbook...remove all traces of historical evidence.They probably got a panicked call from their legal department worried about liability. If someone sues, I hope they subpoena not just the removed signs, but also any and all memos, emails, etc., ordering and discussing the removal, as well as obtain depositions from the decisions makers and those who carried out the removals.
Meanwhile, those of you who live in Omaha, get on your local papers and TV stations and ask them why the investigative reporting on this all seems to be getting done by lowly bloggers as opposed to highly paid, professional "Authorized Journalists." See if they'll look into why the signs were taken down, and note the names of who you spoke with.
I wonder if this was done before the "crime scene" had been cleared, and if this could possibly be construed as removing evidence, or alternatively, if "The Only Ones" greenlighted the removals?
And by the way: Kudos to Joe's Crabby Shack for the outstanding job in bringing us this information. Keep checking in on that site--it has become the "go to" place for breaking news on this story.
UPDATE: Feel free to add your voice if so inclined.

ReplyDeleteThe Gun-free Zone Criminal Conduct Liability Act never had a chance of passing in Illinois, of course, but I think it would be good law, and might have a decent chance of passage in a couple states.
ReplyDeleteCreates the Gun-free Zone Criminal Conduct Liability Act. Provides that any person, organization, or entity or any agency of government, including any unit of local government, that creates a gun-free zone is liable for all costs, attorney's fees, and treble damages resulting from criminal conduct that occurs against an individual in the gun-free zone, if a reasonable person would believe that possession of a firearm could have helped the individual defend against such conduct. Defines "gun-free zone". Effective immediately.
