Sooo. You all heard about the cop car that slammed into Bar PM Sunday night. And they arrested the owner for having the audacity to question him. Well here’s the video. 1/

Breaking: Javad Khazaeli reps the LGBTQ bar that St. Louis police crashed into yesterday. He says video contradicts police accounts of its co-owner's arrest: "They falsely claim that speaking loudly is against the law. And they use that as a predicate to arrest Mr. Morris." riverfronttimes.com/news/att…

MEMPHIS: @MSCSK12 puts out a statement saying “we’re committed to upholding the principles of the first amendment” as the Satanic Temple says they’ll be launching an after school club. Can’t just have Christian clubs, folks. This door swings both ways. wreg.com/news/local/the-sata…

If a man in a suit comes to you and tells you that God spoke to him. And God told him he was to be the new Moses. And you aren't on a movie set filming a comedy , immediately leave. Don't look back. Just walk away. Don't run,he may take chase. Just purposefully walk to where other humans have gathered. Maybe a clean well lighted place.

High drama on @BritishBakeOff pastry week: Dan nicked himself grating frozen butter and bled into the dough. He had to redo the whole thing. If Paul Hollywood ever tasted human blood, no one would be safe.

A woman called the sheriff's department to say she'd found a dog wandering after a storm. Rather than try to find Parker's owners, deputies shot him -- and then, when he didn't die, shot him again 8 minutes later. Unbelievable cruelty from Stoddard County: riverfronttimes.com/news/dep…
