  3. 9:14 PM ,I take it “ YOUR NOT FROM AROUND HERE” !! Those weirdo white liberal elitists from West Hartford are the very devils “YOU PEOPLE” want around!!! Whites needed to show up big twice in order for YOUR former race dividing Obama to get elected and the majority of Honky’s in West Hartford did just that.. So let those “crackers” from West Hartford watch Snow White or Cinderella (white version) everyday of the week if they want because those white idiots are the very ones to embrace Luke Bronin’s destructive proposal to regionalize,,,they have endorsed and welcomed CT’s loser duo of Murphy and Blumenthal who have made a very secure career “representing” YOU PEOPLE,,,,Hell ,West Hartford even changed Columbus Day to Indigenous People’s Day ,,I’M HALF WOP HOW DO YOU THINK THAT MADE ME FEEL??? Let’s not forget that West Hartford supports EVERY FORM OF SOCIAL SERVICE PROGRAMS! So let’s bottom line it,,,, DONT BITE THE WHITE HAND THAT FEEDS YOU !!!!!

  6. So what is going to happen to the new probationary officer who left his prisoner detail at saint francis hospital and went to get food while the nurses had to call 911 and report a possible prisoner escape ?
    Wtf is going on at hpd ?

  7. So i guess its ok to leave your 91 prisoner unattended while taking a 10-16. Nurses call 911 to report a handcuffed prisoner walking around the hospital. Where is the foi on that radio broadcast? Maybe good sir brian foley fox 61 can uncover this before the boring and aging blog ......
    Only time will tell.
    Foley vs the Blog 2018

  8. Good sir brian foley fox61 can also investigate the wrong way highway pursuit for a misuse of plates. Who is the officer? Why would you engage a misuse onto a highway in wrong direction? Where is the transparancy at hpd now since foley has left. Foley was crystal clear with his approach to public involvement.

  9. SpongeBob Foley will do nothing,.
    The dude the prisoner Escaped because the
    stupid Cop thought he could go get Food for himself.
    He probably asked the prisoner I'll be right
    back you want anything? The issue here is the Cop needs to be fired
    but wont'be cause he is Black Or Hispanic. The white cop would
    be fired immediately No Question bout that. Double Standards.

  10. Not really relevant to the topic, but both incidents mentioned are being looked into. My understanding is that the wrong way incident is already the subject of an I-file. Very poor decision making by the officer for an unregistered vehicle

  11. Reading these comments reminds me exactly why i have to remind myself an my children to be extra careful when engaging White Police officers in the city of hartford keep the comments coming Kevin now i see why most good officers transfer outta that place smh

  12. 1:20 PM QUESTIONS,,,If WHITE POLICE officers are as dangerous as you say to Black and Brown people ,,HOW COME THE THOUSANDS OF BLACK AND BROWN OFFICERS ARE SILENT REGARDING WHITE OFFICERS ROGUE BEHAVIOR???? Where are the leaders of the National Black Police Association with a formal statement??? Where are the leaders of The Guardians Association with a formal statement???

  13. People should ask their superiors questions about incidents within the department, not the blog. That goes for HFD and HPD, the rumors are entertaining within departments not for public view. We are suppose help each other especially the new people their actions are direct reflections from senior personnel.

  14. How about the White Officer Jill Kidik who was just
    Stabbed in the Throat by That Black Female Lunatic.
    This was a White Officer risking her life To help Others.
    Where were her Backups and who are they?

  15. how does a posting regarding movies for Hartford residents evolve into a racial issue? I guess it is time to start only allowing comments relevant to the topic again

    ReplyDelete
  16. Because Kevin,We have not evolved as far as we tho k we have. Wounds are deep and old and the problem is much the same in Hartford only the roles have been reversed.
    End of day 2 wrongs don't make a right.
    To answer your ? Early in the post someone questioned the content of the movies.
