Negro mayhem takes life of black female police officer


Celena Hollis

Denver has weekly free jazz concerts at City Park. Seven year police veteran Celena Hollis, 32, president of the Denver Black Officers Organization, was there with other officers to help keep order. ABC News in Denver reports:

The shooting occurred as the concert was ending around 8 p.m.

The officer was trying to break up a fight between two groups and, “Somebody came out firing their weapon (and) the officer was struck in the head,” said Denver police spokesman Sonny Jackson….

[Denver Police Chief Robert White] said he doesn’t believe that that gunman purposely shot the officer, and may have been firing at random or at something or someone else.

“I don’t believe he purposely shot at the police officer,” White said.

Gosh, it’s only a gang shooting gone wrong. That explains it all! I’m so relieved!

I wanna hurry and be the first to say it: It’s just a shooting gone
wrong. Sad. But these things happen.

LA replies:

Readers unfamiliar with VFR may think that Alan A. is making light of the officer’s death. That’s not it at all. He is mocking the way politically correct police chiefs and news media repeatedly lessen the significance of a terrible crime by treating it as some lesser crime which somehow was really not that bad, but which somehow accidentally “went wrong” and turned into a serious crime which somehow no one intended.
