Slidebro Speaks, Sort Of; Denies Phone Call! Oh, and Yeah, Ban Lifted on Reporter;
The other day we did a post on how the downtown Fullerton establishment known as the Slidebar had banned OC Weekly reporter Brandon Ferguson, speculatively for the latter’s passing along what had become common knowledge: that the “anonymous” phone call that initiated events culminating in the murder of Kelly Thomas was made by a Slidebar employee.
Here’s a follow up Weekly post in which describing a message Slidebar proprietor, Jeremy Popoff left at the Weekly.
In a Dec. 29 phone message to the Weekly in response to months of seeking an interview, Popoff–who is also a guitarist for the band Lit–addressed the rumor involving the killing of Kelly Thomas.
“I can tell you it’s not true,” he said.
But in the same message, Popoff said he will not accept the paper’s repeated invitations to field questions about the subject.
“I just don’t want to participate,” he said.
There has been considerable speculation that the call in question was actually orchestrated with the cops involved in the Thomas murder themselves, which of course, if true, would constitute a criminal conspiracy. While nobody in authority will discuss this possibility, it would account for the otherwise inexplicably provocative and violent actions of Ramos, Wolfe, and Cicinelli.
Whether Mr. Jeremy will ever have to participate in the Kelly Thomas affair against his wishes remains unclear. FPD documents relating to the phone call and its origin have apparently been redacted to Hell and back, although sooner or later the originals are bound to surface.
the egg will hit the fan
well, it’s not like you can make a phone call and not expect the call data to be retained by the carrier for years. Mobile phones even record tower data, it’s useless to lie.
It should all come out sooner or later.
wouldn’t it be funny if all the IP of the posters were to be released… those IP are tied to customer accounts and the data retained for years.
calling all h4x0r l33t
Oh my! Did someone get their briefs in a bunch? Or did it finally sink in that the people boycotting this place could put a slight ding in their business. Or is it that they can’t escape the notoriety of their alleged involvement?
Too bad the typical Slidebar clientele aren’t the type to boycott or even care. Their business won’t be hurt. I used to be a customer, but only for the dinner fare. I stopped going there when they lost their original chef and changed up the menu.
FullertonGirl, I hear what you’re saying. These are the same people who vandalize things at Kelly’s memorial site and jeremy is their hero. But with the Recall campaign and Kelly’s Army effecting the beginning of change, I think Slidebar can’t help but be concerned that they are in the fall out and their law enforcement allies can’t help them.
She Bear- O did his eyeliner get smudged…I never liked the slide bar- why did his employee come out and say she made the call…now he is feelin the heat- screw that place and him…..boycott!
He doesn want to get involved huh? Too late Jeremy…..BTW- did anyone get a look at the Slidebsr family freindly strippers they had on New years…nice job- we took away 79 thou from Parks n rac- so Jeremy could have strippers/dancers with a light behind them? Huh? No wonder your a douche you know no better…well lets school him. no?
I say we go down there and give them our foto’s explaining we dont like what you are and stand for..so here is my pic please ban me- just in case I get wasted and stroll over- dont let me in..I doubt it since I abhor the SLidebar- but If im actually that wasted dont let me in….would this be rude?
It turns my stomach to know that Kelly Thomas was murdered because of the actions of a guy like this, or someone of the same ilk! I would bet he is under council’s advice to remain silent on the matter of the phone call.
Amazing “One for the books” How ignorant you are!!! Kelly Thomas was NOT murdered because of “Jeremy’s actions” He was murdered by the actions of the Cops!!! Do you really think the person that made the phone call murdered Kelly Thomas??? ” 911…. I would like to complain of a person braking into cars oh!!! BTW…. can you have the person murdered?” Come on EVERYBODY!!!! STAY FOCUS ON THE FACTS THAT IT WAS THE COPS “ACTIONS” THAT KILLED AND INNOCENT PERSON!!!
Agree. Up to a point.
However the idea that the cops colluded with Slidebar to teach Kelly a lesson that would cause him to go away once and of all can’t be discounted. If this comes out during discovery then Jeremy may well have some ‘splainin’ to do.
Seems to me Jeremy wanted Ramos to fuck kelly up which is why Ramos said “these are the hands that are going to fuck you up”.
Of course Ramos can’t admit to conspiring with Jeremy because it will seriously fuck up his case and Jeremy isnt going to talk because it would seriously fuck up his business.
They’re going to keep quiet like good little gang bangers. The only way you will get the truth is through call records, a conviction or if a 3rd party faces federal charges (ie Wolfe) and starts squealing.
The DA knew exactly what he was doing when he only filed against 2 🙂
Should have filed charges against all six, plus those who helped re-write the reports.
There is no evidence/proof at all that Kelly was breaking into anything, therefore this call was boogus –
that “call” was the start of the torture/murder cycle
he was murdered by the cops yes that much is true but the yahoos from the slimebar made the call to the cops thus they are also to blame
“I can tell you it’s not true,” he said
Just because someone “tells” you something doesn’t mean it’s not another tale.
Ask Pinnocchio.
“Ask Pinnocchio.”
Politicians as well.
And what’s the story with that hideously macabre appearance? I wonder if he is trying to prove that he is the biggest FREAK in DTF? Or is he an earthly servant of the Devil himself?
Ha ha ha
He’s mainly just a retard.
$79 Thousand dollars out of parks and recreation budgeted for First Night in Fullerton? Sounds like the only ones making money again were the police standing around sucking up overtime and the nearby bars.
If the Slidebar, or any of its employees, DID NOT call the police on the night of July 5, 2011, then WHO DID?
WE DONT KNOW. IT’S SUPPOSITION UNTIL WE SEE THE 911 CALL SHEET…THE PRINTOUT FROM THE MDT LOG…AND OTHER PRINTOUT-ABLE TYPES OF EVIDNCE TO KNOW WHETHER SUCH A CALL WAS MADE….AND WHO MADE IT…
One for the books….
WHO DID MAKE THE CALL? CAn Jeremy say that he never ever gave fpd cops free stuff…or let them use his bars like predators…old slimy cops hanging around waiting for a drunk co -ed….hello SLimebar this is what you are.A pig pen.
If the Slidebar, and all it’s represents, is the future of America, then we are in REAL TROUBLE!!
Nice one Shell. lol
All cops get free stuff they are not supposed to take….exactly for this reason.
Freeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!
Not free. Some half price but that’s about it.
I’ve always respected others in that I don’t expect them to do or not do things because of my views. But I am so adamant about not patronizing this place, I have gone so far as to do something I’ve never done. I’ve let friends know that anyone who goes to Slidebar is not welcomed in my home. All are ok with this and respecting it because they understand not only my reasons but they get that this can never be forgotten. It’s possible that the proprietors of this place are getting it, too. The fall out from July 5th and their general treatment of the homeless is not going away. Not even a food drive can make their garbage smell better. Anything that helps the homeless is always appreciated but their motives are nothing more than self serving imo.
Phone records… someone get the phone records! We can clear this up real quick like.
“I can tell you it’s not true,” he said
What’s not true? someone is lying then,
Kelly is dead and it was reported someone there contacted the police to report possible car break ins which was the rationale for the police presence, so what exactly isnt true?
The reported call by an employee from that bar or Kelly not being dead by cop torture?
Do you think the Feds have copies or are in possession of any records that document or prove that phone call?
@25 they got them. the Feds love to bust crooked cops. makes them look good and they aren’t afraid of retaliation. just like this in NOLA where the cops screwed the investigation so the tame state judge would throw it out. dont be in a hurry though that took 6 yrs.
Good one, merijoe.
What’s not true?
We know the call happened,
and we know Kelly was beaten to death by the fpd.
What is not true?
I’m buying you a couple martinis one of these days.
They’re going to have to show in court the records of why they were called out and why they questioned Kelly (and searched him). This guy’s a dummy if he thinks this statement won’t come back to bite him….
he is a dummy……..boycott.
Shell- that is being nice, he is an idiot.
Joe- “Slide’Bro”…love it!!
I think he is lying through his crooked teeth and I would bet most everyone else believes so also. He is a Wanna Be rock star and wouldn’t recognize moral character if it walked up slapped him in the face., YAWN.
Not hard to boycott a place you wouldn’t step into to begin with. I seriously doubt a boycott via this blog will have much impact on them, they are hardly the culinary pinnacle of DTF, nor have they ever been. Popoff is only there to sell booze, food is not important. That is the way it is with 98% of ALL DTF restaurants, the same circus different clown, which is really a root to many of the problems in DTF. Obviously the OC Weekly has a much more wide reaching audience, which scares SB and the impact OC can have.
Thank you OC Weekly, again and again.
He’s a dummy and he sucks on guitar, but sucked some butt to get his half-assed music exploited.
What a Taint!
I believe the term is CHOAD?…lmao
I think his lawyer has told him that since he is responsible for the actions of his employees, , they could be charged with filing a false police report or sued because it resulted in Kelly being killed……so he is denying everything…….guess again, , he is still responsible for the actions of his employees, whether he was aware of them at the time or not…
LET me ask you guys this………
If a guy was killed by 6 cops in your front yard..and you want nothing to do with it..
1- either you are the most self centered douche bag -that clearly wears eyeliner to cover his beady eyes.
2- you called or had your girl call…you know the one that called to ask for help about breaking into cars…huh? but you want nothing to do with a guy that was murdered in your front yard—speaks volumes…….NOT 1 person on either side of this seems to understand your non curiosity.
Geez jeremy hope noone calls your kid breaking into cars…I have a coulpla years…Ill do it then–see how you like it- fingers crossed it wont turn out the same way.
But he told me to do it.
Jeremy just posted this on his Facebook page
“No matter what you say…. people hear whatever they want anyway. Hey pal, instead of twisting my words why don’t you grab the lotion and..”
If you want to see what this guy is about, view his Facebook or Twitter page. Talk about somebody trying too hard.
If you want to know what this idiot thinks of himself, take a look at the “About Me” section on his myspace page at http://www.myspace.com/jeremypopoff. The first line is “I don’t know how to put this……. but…….. I’m kind of a big deal.” What an Ass!
Jerry Popov rocks!!!!
Must be his hair, that you like…..Just another wanna-be….
are you one of his groupies??
On myspace Jeremy describes books, presumably that he has read: I have many leather-bound books. And…… My apartment smells of rich mahogany.
Hmm. That could be black mold.
And another Anchorman quote. I’ve never seen the movie, but these quotes have been so abused that I find it hard to believe someone thinks those are Jeremy’s actual words.
Try again. That’s a quote from Anchorman. I’m not a fan of Jeremy, Slidebar, or his band, but lets get real. Look up! The joke just went over your head.
Look, I’m not a fan of murder or authority figures in uniform but lets get real, when I see a beef cake of a cop beating in the face of a defenseless homeless guy while he screams for his life. I get a sexual thrill.
you sir are sick may i suggest you see a head doctor?
It’s not funny any way you slice it.
Jeremy just posted this on his Facebook page
“No matter what you say…. people hear whatever they want anyway. Hey pal, instead of twisting my words why don’t you grab the lotion and..”
Hey Coolio Jeremy, What is it we are hearing that you are implying isnt true?
Did someone at the bar make the call or not?
Jeremy is an idiot. All he can do is ride off the success of a poorly written 12 year old one hit wonder song and his brother’s looks.
………..and just like that his page is closed to anyone that doesn’t know him.
He must be real stupid to not realize that he only gets attention because he owns a bar…..sell the bar and we’ll see how he does…….
Would they even hire him at 7-11 to work the Slurpee machine?
Actually, he’s going to end up losing money big time if he doesnt sell soon.
Hmmmm… If Jeremy just posted that on his Facebook page perhaps he reads FFFF as much as we do? Maybe someone who regularly monitors this site had to give him a heads up?
I hope he does read these comments, because he will realize he can deny all he wants, , he still will be responsible for that phone call and everyone will know about that call as soon as the trial begins…..his actions regarding that call and whether it was made speak of more devious intentions than just getting a homeless dude removed from the front of his bar because it was bad for business…..
of course he reads these comments, he hasn’t left his computer since this article was posted. Hi Jeremy!!! ~ waves wildly~
Jeremy just posted a Toby Keith interview, and Toby says something along the lines that all press is good press and even if Jesus came back and saved the world, somebody would write that JC was a douchebag. Popoff must read this page. He also replied to somebody who mentioned that the article was fair by saying
“See….. even some of you are assuming you know what I am referring to. I don’t know which article you are referring to Garrett but I am not scared of jack shit. I don’t hide behind a laptop. I am out and about everyday and often times where I am is advertised. I’m not hard to find. Come say hello sometime.”
I’d love to come up and say hi provided you weren’t a sloppy drunk 99% of the time.
WTF is he talking about? This is cryptic BS
If a person isnt afraid of “jack shit” then they would open their pie hole and speak out.
Now would be a good time, an innocent man was murdered and the reports show someone who works for YOU is a player in this, so speak up and clearly not in surfer on cough syrup, speak either.
cough syrup speak…is that similar to the swap meet hippie look? You slay me mj!
Take a look at his facebook page and notice the Christmas card he sent out this year.
I saw that….I hope no chick was stupid enough to fall for that……..he’s a user..
Typical, and sick!
I’ll tell everyone what I’ve been told many times by the FPD, the FBI, and the DA’s office. “The call came from a female asst. Manager from the Slide Bar”. “They were looking for a redheaded homeless man known as Kelly-your son” I was told by Capt. Hamilton.
In any case, on March 28th the video and the information about the call will be presented as evidence. So, get there early as the courtroom will be packed.
Also, in about a week I will be watching the “City Video” at the DA’s office with Garo. I must do this for Kelly to ensure that I get him justice.
Today makes it 6 months that Kelly was murdered.
Ron, , there’s a lot of people in your corner and trying to be a shoulder for you to lean on…….
God Bless……
I think about Kelly all the time.
I read the post on the OCR by the girl that made the call…..They knew Kelly, but they didn’t want him sitting and hanging out in front because they thought it was bad for customers to see when entering the bar. She told them Kelly was seen ‘looking into cars’, so that the police would remove him and come out right away….. Knowing there had previously been some car breakins reported in the area (Richard Fritschie and his jewelry sales perhaps?).
If Kelly would have been sitting anywhere else that night, , the police wouldn’t have been called….
Oh Ron, Im so sorry. My heart breaks for you that you will be subject to see that.
You are very brave. Kelly is proud
Mr. Thomas,
I have a great deal of respect for you and what you are doing for your son.
Thank you.
I admire what you’ve done for your son.
Ron, sorry you have to see this. your self-control is amazing.
God bless you, Ron.
Ron, I know this may be off-topic, but why is it that the County of Orange has no record of you ever being employed by them? Just curious.
Dear half goat half warthog- AKA Anonymous,
Not only is your ignorant comment off topic, its also a big “who cares”
Why does this man’s work history have anything to do with the torture murder of his son by the slaughterhouse 6?
and – yes, the cluster-dino’s are being recalled, get used to it.
His son gets beaten to death by thugs and you have the nerve to check his work history.
Why?
‘Cause they got nothing!
Stay strong and stand tall mi amigo. We’ll keep you in our prayers.
Stay strong Ron, This is necessary but will be so difficult. Our prayers are truly with you.
Ron – Best wishes to you in your pursuit of justice!!
Thanks for the update Ron. I took a vacation day so I could be there on March 28th.
Ron, did Mr. DA give you a more detailed explaination as to why there were only two cops charged, and one very weak charge IMO on Cicinelli?
Ron, has Garo, or the FBI, been able to investigate to your satisfaction, whether the “City Video” was tampered with, or altered, in any way?
God bless you Ron. May He continue to give you the needed courage, strength and wisdom as you seek justice for Kelly’s murder.
Hardly a day goes by that I don’t deeply mourn for Kelly, for the horrific way in which he was murdered, and for your family’s loss.
I also grieve for each one of us because of the knowledge that there are sociopaths in the FPD, who “serve and protect,” who are capable of brutally beating to death an unarmed man who is begging for his life, or capable of looking the other way while it is being done, or capable of covering it up afterwards.
Ron. Our heart pours out to you. I wish there were a way to get around you seeing the video, but sadly there is no other way when you have to worry about cover-ups and lies. Anything you need Ron, just ask.
Mr. Thomas the truth will stand on its own and justice will be served. We are on the right side of this thing. May God give you the stregnth to endure what lies ahead as He has up until this point. What you and your son have had to go through will not be in vain. The sacrifices made in this fight will make our streets safer for EVERYONE. Fullerton will never be the same and THE WORLD IS WATCHING.
Fullerton restaurants hold food drive for FIES
The Slidebar in downtown Fullerton ignited the effort, which has drawn in other local restaurants and KROQ.
“They were telling us how bare the shelves were,” Popoff said. “It’s not just homeless people. It’s families who have empty refrigerators.”
http://www.ocregister.com/news/food-334321-slidebar-club.html
Thanks for the laugh, …this is rich, even for the Bird Cage Gazette.
I will quote a freind of mine: It was nice of Jeremey to collect the food and let the homeless look at it…………they gathered it for a photo op….weak sauce!
Is he trying to make good now? Pathetic!!
The cops have most of these bar owners by the balls. Step out of line and pretty soon your business will start having more “problems” with law enforcement, even though your roudy clientelle are the same as every other bar in DTF.
It’s no secret that most of the bar owners will go out of their way to avoid pointing fingers at any bad cop behavior.
Johnny, eat a donut, its on us!
of course they don’t want the stink-eye on them, THEY are the problem. They want to continue to cash in on Drunk Town Fullerton.
I love how every news piece regarding Popoff has to always refer to him as a guitarist for the band Lit.
I love it because no one under the age of 30 knows who Lit is, nor cares. And the rest of us who are 30+ wish we didn’t.
For the record, Lit’s 15 minutes of fame were courtesy of a song titled “My Own Worst Enemy”…how ironic.
Jerry rules, I can’t express the awe I feel just thinking about an aging douchebag who at the pinnacle of his success (20 years ago?) was at best a 4th tier microcelebrity.
He might be telling the truth. From the beginning I never thought there was a telephone call made to the police. The police made up the call up after the fact. They were just out prowling, looking for trouble.
Cause you believe everything that people say in this blog. Including Ron Thomas, contribute to KTMF, cause guess who is in charge of the money? No only but, “Mr Ron”.
whats the matter john dope?? you mad bro?
I believe Ron Thomas when he informs me that the FPD, the FBI, and the DA have all told him that the call originated from slidebar. Ron, Kelly and the Thomas family are always in my prayers.
Oh! Jim Johns (Ron Thomas) has spoken, so lets all believe what he has says, whether it be right or wrong.
In the beginning, it was said there was a call. I didn’t believe it then. Now if Ron Thomas, the DA, and the FBI want to believe the FPD when they said the call came from a “local business” about cars being broke into I can understand that’s easier to swallow than a bunch of rogue cops prowling for “undesirables”. Just saying.
I see your point. I could see why the DA would rather paint that picture, however, I have more faith in the FBI. Perhaps that trust is misplaced, but I think the FBI would have actual evidence to back up their assertion. I also tend to think that if those officers were “rogue prowling cops” then the FBI would take an even stronger stance against them.
I find it somewhat humorous that I never heard of Lit until they played at my kids’ high school in 2002. My daughter says they got “big” around that time. I’m pretty knowledgeable of bands but out of curiosity, did his band ever really become anything?
No.
Steve Lukather? That’s the name you pull out? I’ll take your word for it.
You can look them up on Wikipedia.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lit_(band)
They had a #1 song for three months so that’s nothing to sneeze at and toured the world, which is more than most bands will ever do.
so they stole their hit song from another band..and were in it for 2 minutes…over it and them..most bands dont suck as bad as LIT..or the strumming of that country bullshit crooning that Jeremy does…fins his music and sit for a while if you dont want to stab your ears with pencils..I would be shocked. Yeah for their PR guy without him LIT woulda bottomed out right off the bat..STAIN was it the other band they werein wasnt t razzle once…they would put ads in BAM magazine..
Compared to someone like Steve Lukather, uhhh… NO!
Even if I’d known nothing at all of the Slidebar/Kelly Thomas, I’d still think Jerry P. looks like a complete tool.
M>U>R- you are correct.
Yep now R. Thomas is telling you trouble makers the call originated from the Slide Bar. What happened you dont believe your mentor. Wait until R. Thomas sees the video. His asshole is gonna shrink.
Anonymous-STFU!!!
Erin, Please help me out here? …. I generally like to keep my comments above board and on topic. I don’t quite know how to respond to anonymous except to let the community know that one inappropriate response will do nothing to prevent me from praying for the Thomas family.
CT-Anon is a neutered sociopathic coward troll – they come on the blog all the time spouting nonsense. You already see what these jackballs are capable of and not caring one snort if they cause more damage – spew diarrhea – so while you are praying for the Thomas family, pray ON these demon assistants.
It’s obvious you have never seen it, , the DA already told us what it shows. As a matter of fact, , it was because of what it shows that made the DA file charges…….
You can’t change the facts, no matter how much you bully or tell lies…..
It does not matter where the call came from. Peace Officiers do not have the right to beat to death a unarmed person. But, as I hear it, you can shoot a unarmed person for breaking into your home….Just what are you trying to justify here? Wrong is Wrong….Do us a favor and go find a bad guy, instead of blogging here all day and night.
@105 guess you haven’t read the piggies statement that the call came from there months ago. try to keep up dimbulb
I imagine that viewing that video in its entirety will be one of the hardest trials Mr. Thomas will ever have to face. I feel powerless to help so I will continue to keep him and the family in my thoughts and prayers. Anyone posting demeaning comments about such an experience is less than human. That person justly deserves the title of “internet troll.”
Yeah, its really hard when your kid is screaming and yelling at the cops while the cops are telling him to stop resisting. All he had to do is comply and he would be alive today. But he thought he was gonna win just cause he screamed “Dad, Dad”.
That’s sick!
i hope to god that the same thing happens to one of yours shitstain
I have tried to keep my voice down in regards to the slimebar out of respect for my friend Allen…………. but after reading this shit…. fuck that you lying sack of shit Jemery karma will get u. What ever I can do to fuck with u I will……. you are no better than goodridge
P.s. don’t fuck with the spunk!!!!!!!!!
Is the Spunk Tuco’s brother?
No, Spunky is that tweeker looking blonde chick that screamed and yelled at the councilmen on Tuesdays. She is another media whore like Ron Thomas.
speaking of attention whores you seem to be one yourself since you troll the comments on every thread on fullertonsfuture.org
with that look i wonder how he escaped a FPD beatdown at some time. i guess nobody forgets who sets up the drinks while you troll for college girls to pull over later and play stinkfinger with
I guess it’s time for. Slidebar to be held accountable.
Lately I’ve been catching up on a couple of decades of missed music on Jack FM. I love “My Own Worst Enemy”. It is not a foreign concept to us who grew up listening to Janis Joplin and Jim Morrison. And although I have never come in through the window, found my car parked in the front yard, nor awoke to the fire alarm with a ciggarette still burning, I think we can all relate to ourselves being our own worst enemy.
At least Jeremy still “owns” Fullerton, unlike Jackson Browne, who was always ashamed of it.
However, I still want to know the truth about that phone call and I am encouraged by Ron’s claim above that it is on the agenda and will come out in court soon.
apparently Browne knew something we didn’t, even way back then.
Jackson Browne the woman beater? how wonderful. i know he denies it, so why wouldn’t he tell her uncle how she ended up in the hospital with a black eye pissing blood. the suck up cops said they saw no injuries. how do you not see a black eye?
Maybe he will not get his millions like he is anticipating. Especially when he is not even Kelly Thomas’ biological father.
In case you forgot, Kelly has a mother, step mother and siblings so believe me, the tax payers of Fullerton will be paying the Thomas family big time no matter what.
Everytime you ride on a busted up street in Fullerton or get laid from your city job due to lack of funds make sure to thank Boss Hog, Don Snoozehead, Michael Hillmann, Pat McKinley, Detective Benjamin Lira and the rest of the fine staff and employees at Fullerton PD who created, allowed or turned a blind eye to the corruption and thuggery within the department.
Mr Thomas- you are the daddy..woo hoo.
just posting the obvious-geez who makes this stuff up…O happy friday goodlie- I saw your quiver of donuts being dropped off…beep beep beep backing up the truck- to feed your obsessive ego.
Stalking, harassing, threats, background checks… thugs like you are better suited working with the Church of Scientology. You’ll fit right in.
Take a look at law enforcement in places like Tijuana. That will be your future if you corrupt thugs keep it up. People only back and respect the badge when they think the person behind it is deserving of that respect, once you’ve lost their respect you’ll end up just like law enforcement in corrupt places like mexico.
My post was meant for #110.
get your pen ready someone needs to write them a check…so not it! figuring were playing school yard games…your it- write him a check and smile while ya do it-douche bag.
someone here put a shit bar out of buisness. apparently glass tube stink bombs are availabe online. whenever the place got crowded smash went a stinkbomb outside the doors. believe me a door only keeps the funk out for a minute. everybody inside wants out, nobody wants in. i hear some of them are small enough to work great with a wrist rocket.
Now why the hell would you want to do something so childish and immature to your own business Jeremy?
You’re a 40 year old man FFS.
good stuff
Yeah when you get blood money..it never last like it should. BAD things happen. I would be very scare. The ghost of kelly might take revenge on the opportunist.
…That would only apply if Ramos and Cincinelli were getting a big payout.
Is this a threat?
Because I have news of you. Not all law enforcement officers and employees are corrupt dirtbags and these officers will be more than happy to throw your ass in prison for tarnishing the badge.
If I were you I would think very carefully before acting.
Jeremy Popoff? 🙂
If I do something wrong, they should throw me in jail. Kelly Thomas would be alive if he would of done what he was told. He fought and he lost. His parents are gonna make millions and they didnt even want him around. Everytime the cops would call R. Thomas to come pickup Kelly, he would say. “He is your problem, not mind.’ Is that a father that loved his son. I dont think so.

Said just like a broken garbage disposal spewing garbage everywhere.
Sad Reality #1: The Fullerton Police Officers who implemented the awful beating to Kelly Thomas are the ONLY RESPONSIBLE PERSONS in this tragedy. Additionally, I sincerely doubt that their behavior is representive of the entire police departments’ operational standards.
Even with/if someone telephoning the police for assistance in removing a homeless person reported the facts differently than they occurred; does not give the police the right to assault someone as violently as they did to this Man. And, as someone who has owned and operated businesses with homeless people hanging around it, I have telephoned the police on several occasions to have them removed. Patrons of any business do not want to be harassed everytime they frequent an establishment by a urine/feces smelling person begging them for their money. If any of you owned a business and it’s success (and your ability to provide food, shelter, clothing, life, etc to your family) was dependent upon customers desiring to return repeatedly; you would think A LOT differently than you do now. It amazes me how frequently people will speak up on subject matters they’ve never experienced. Walk a mile in someone else’s shoes before you are so quick to judge.
Sad reality #2: If Kelly’s family, friends and each of you ‘supporters’ on here loved and cared about him so much; why was he homeless? Each of your concern seems a little too late IMO.
Sad Reality #3: Homelessness is a serious problem and should not be. It is a direct result of ignorant viewpoints, a distorted reality and carelessness for our fellow mankind. People are too quick to throw people away. I have never seen this so rampant as I see it here in Southern California.
At least the Slidebar’s owner addressed this issue and tried to help fix it. What have each of you done, other than take to your keyboards and try and vilify someone who actually extended their help? He organized an EVENT to help with the situation. He even offered a free lunch at his restaurant to anyone who came down and donated! That couldn’t have been cheap. He seems to me, like a really nice guy.
Sad Reality #4: It is doubtful that even a fraction of my words will be read and understood. We have become a society of sheep who are so focused on being a part of some ridiculous social circle or clique, that we rarely stop to think about the consequences of our actions. You all need to seriously take a look at your own contribution to the lacking that is in our society. Or is each of you completely innocent of doing any harm throughout your life?
My Mother always taught, do unto others as you would have done unto you. And, do as you will so long as you bring harm to none. You want a reality check? Think and say those two tenants prior to your actions and see what behavioral changes become necessary in your own life.
The Man who owns the Slidebar is way more innocent than any of you. Just from what I have read about him through each of your comments, he seems like he is the scapegoat for this lynch-mob mentality created by all of you! Some good came of it though. BECAUSE of all of your hatred, I became curious and researched him and his band. Their music is pretty darn good. I bought their latest CD AND downloaded it from iTunes. Now I am making sure that everyone I meet knows just how amazing this band is. BTW, I have a lot more ‘friends’ than each of you. *Power of a voice (learn from it)
Let he who is innocent cast the first stone…
“My Mother always taught, do unto others as you would have done unto you.”
Telling.
If you’re beaten to death by cops after someone phoned in a fake report, we’ll be sure to act as you’ve suggested.
Can you read and comprehend English, you illiterate Cyber Warrior?
If you want to give me a beat down, do it in person and not from the comfort of the couch you sleep on in your Mother’s basement. You mental midget…
Even Sadder Reality: If the Slidebar conspired with one or more cops to commit a felony, then the death of Kelly is a murder and the Slidebar is complicit.
There is that word again “conspiracy”, give it a break. You sound like a broken record. There was no conspiracy dingbat.
“lynch-mob mentality”
Hooboy! Now where have we heard that before? Whiting? HeeHaw?
If the slide bar would of called that there was a homeless guy in the parking lot loitering, rather than there is a homeless guy pulling on door handling trying to burglarize cars, the cops would of been there in 20 minutes, not as soon as possible like a crime in progress. Very different calls. When the cops would of responded to a non-emergency call, probably Kelly would of been gone by then.
If someone is not honest with themselves, why would they be honest with anybody?
“would of”
Did you mean to say “would have?”
Geez you GEDers sure are dumb.
You are 100% WRONG. I got my GED early at Cal State Fullerton.
EVEN IF, the call was improperly reported, the police officers acted of their own accord. “Lifting up on door handles” or attempting to break into cars, does not equate to the armed and dangerous reaction of those officers. And, the crime in progress was that he should not been a public nussiance. No, this does not give the police officers the right to beat him to death; but it certainly does not give HIM the right to disrupt a business owners operation either.
It is perplexing to me & completely mind-boggling that anyone is laying blame on the bar owner OR his staff. It is another sad reality that The Internet give ls people like you a voice… A dumb voice, and you seem to have strength in numbers.
Wow! That was so original. I think you changed my whole outlook. Thank you Sad.
Cult like worship!
“why was he homeless?”
He wasn’t homeless.
“Their music is pretty darn good. I bought their latest CD AND downloaded it from iTunes. Now I am making sure that everyone I meet knows just how amazing this band is. BTW, I have a lot more ‘friends’ than each of you. *Power of a voice (learn from it)”
Enjoy
