There is never a time that an adult, doesn’t matter who they are, should put their hands on a child to commit violence. As a parent, this enrages me, and should enrage the entire community. The Chief of Police holds a position of power - they must be held to a higher standard. A “resignation” should be the tip of the iceberg for this horrifying human being. If he is assaulting children, what other crimes does this man commit. He belongs in prison with the people he put away.
Jordan supported: Demand Chief Scott McElree's resignationWe've seen the videos. The police chief started the violence. We saw an unidentified man push his way into a crowd of children and start grabbing kids, then put a girl into a choke hold. There was no reason to use this kind of excessive force. He should have been the one arrested. If I had been there, I would have reacted the same as those kids to defend her.
Lisen supported: Demand Chief Scott McElree's resignationWhile I have never skated in my life, I have been doing marching band for almost eight years, and you learn to watch for the smallest of discrepancies in everything you do, from musical quality to your choreography. When watching the scoring and the errors made by the French pair, it was shocking to see that they got a better score than Chock and Bates. There were moments where they were out of sync and there were moments where one of them visibly stumbled and lost balance. It's clear that a heavy bias from the judges affected that final score, and I think it's important for the integrity of the Olympics that this be reviewed heavily. This isn't the first time it's happened and it's sad to see that this is a repeating problem.
Ella supported: Require the IOC and ISU to Investigate the Judges Awarding France the GoldAs a parent of 2 skaters that dedicate their lives to this sport, the actions of the IOC are a slap in the face to the integrity that is hammered into these skaters every time they take the ice. Chock and Bates were meticulous. We all saw the stumbles from Cizeron and they didn’t get called??
Stefanie supported: Require the IOC and ISU to Investigate the Judges Awarding France the GoldI am a competitive show skater and understand how judging works. What happened was wrong and deserves to be acknowledged it is. You have failed us athletes who watch team after team dreams shattered by your unfair rules. Please do something about this before you lose more people's faith
Abigail supported: Require the IOC and ISU to Investigate the Judges Awarding France the GoldThis dog should be released to go home, he was hit by a car and was in severe pain, not aggressive! The natural reaction for a dog in pain is to bite out of fear and self defense. A shelter should know this and advocate for the animal but I suppose that's not the case in this instance. It's deeply unsettling that a shelter, an organization meant to protect animals, is pushing to euthanize a dog who isn't aggressive, and has a loving home with a dedicated owner waiting for him. Major has spent over 500 days in a shelter without his family. Think about the toll it takes on a dog to be seperated from everything he knows for that long. Their owners are their whole life, and they are only a part of ours. How could you deprive an owner of the time they have with their dog, AND to try and shorten that time when they are trying to negotiate terms to get their dog back. Even going as far to say they will muzzle him and even professional trainers are offering to help! The victim in this case has stated that they do not believe the dog should be euthanized for this incident. That alone should dismiss this entire case! What is the matter with you people, imagine not being able to see your own dog for over 500 days and being told to euthanize them. Shame on all of you.
FREE MAJOR!!!
