3 Fires Just Blocks Apart in Highland Park

[Gannon]

That explains why that one fire truck was driving through the damn ALLEY...while we were turning from McNichols onto Hamilton tonight!

My theory?! [[you're going to love this...Zacha)


Not twenty to thirty minutes previous, there was a fucking close-formation high-speed PARADE of 6-7 Detroit Police and 2-3 Wayne County Sheriff vehicles which turned from WB Seven Mile onto Livernois...at the leading edge of RUSH HOUR, btw...putting on a damned charade for the townsfolk on the way to some raid which MUST'VE been 2.5 miles away, since the attendant helicopter was hovering closer to Woodward near McNichols. I was at a store on Livernois a few blocks south of 7 mile at the time.

I'm betting the eyes and ears of a few key operations called ahead and said get ready for a raid...and three of 'em self-torched to eliminate evidence! Then they must've scattered, because on every sidestreet there were cars pulled over for three to five blocks south of the Hamilton fire.

I couldn't tell if it was a commercial building on Hamilton, or a residence just behind it...was too busy holding my breath as I drove through the smoke.

It happened too closely for me to not immediately assume cause and effect...that damn high-speed parade raid was an assinine maneuver in rush hour. They didn't need to stage it at that time, so the charade must've been on purpose. They wanted everyone to see 'em in action.


Operation Hemingway, indeed. Screwballs. Do it at night...with an element of surprise. Lower your chances of collateral damage...that driving stunt was as STUPID as the State Police helicopter idiocy a week ago in GPP.


I'm tellin' ya now, all this police action is setting a stage...they are putting on a very public face right now for some reason. I can feel it in my bones.


Sincerely,
John
