Guilty for attempted murder of Arab Police Officers.

02/05/2025

Sherman Nicholas Pierce went on trial today for the attempted murder of two Arab Police Officers in June 2022.
He is charged with fleeing Arab Police Sgts. Brandon Hendrix and Brooks Robertson, then firing at them 13 times during a high-speed vehicle pursuit.
Shots hit at least one of the patrol cars.
More in Thursday’s Tribune.

We deleted the previous two posts because of the anger and hatred toward one another. A lot of the comments were what it was supposed to be – debate.

Unfortunately, a lot them were spewing hatred toward your fellow Brindlee Mountain and Arab neighbors – and a lot of them had absolutely nothing to do with the original story.

In a matter of hours, the two posts were turned into Joe Biden and Donald Trump love/hate affairs. We should be able to debate the topics without that.

Some came on to debate the actual topic.
Some came to blast me (I can take it).
Some came to blast President Trump.
Some came to blast former President Biden.
Some, admittedly, came "for the comments," including Mr. James, himself, which was entirely too funny. I am glad that, considering everything he and his family have been through, that he was able to maintain his sense of humor. That can't be easy.

Maybe someday we can get back to debate, rather than spewing hatred. But apparently that day is not today. And likely won't be tomorrow either.
