-Short Attention Span Theater-

Ex-Detroit mayoral candidate hides with intruders inside home.

She was on the phone when she heard the break-in. She called police right away. They showed up 20 minutes later. One advised her to get a CPL license.

#1 "To think youth could do that randomly, or selectively, I can't believe that."

Probably just bored. A lot of that going around of late.

#2 To think that a youth could do this randomly or selectively, I cant imagine that, Howze said.

You're a BIGOT, profiling Youths. (How does that get you, tarred with the same brush)

#3 CPL license = Concealed Politician License...?

#4 I wonder what the cop would have told a non-politician.

The cops took 20 minutes to arrive. As Glenn Reynolds is fond of saying: "When seconds count, the police are minutes away."

#5 Howze called police, telling a dispatcher she was a former mayoral candidate who had just completed a news conference.

I thought that if I explained who I was that it might illustrate the state of mind I was in, Howze said. I was hoping for a faster response time.

Like Rambler sed, I wonder what a non-pol would have gotten for as response.

#6 I just wonder, If she had called and NOT said she's a Politician, would the cops be quicker?

Thy know who's at fault in Demopoit, Umm Detroit.
