As you might expect with a property that has changed hands numerous times, both the interior and exterior have changed somewhat over the years. The property has changed hands a number of times both before and after the filming of Friday. The property sold in 1998 for $145,000 then again in 2018 for $225,000.

Wood, who was the chief executive officer of the Sears, Roebuck & Co. Farish’s grandfather graduated from law school in Mississippi in 1900. After just three months of legal practice, he moved to Beaumont, Tex., and within a year had started his own oil business.

Hernández: James Harden delivers a trademark disappearing act at the worst time for the Clippers
The farm’s office, where about a dozen of the farm’s 100 employees work, occupies the third floor of a Versailles bank building that has a view of the nearby farm. Leading thoroughbred stallions arguably have one of the best of all lives. A private room, their own two-acre paddock for exercise, servants everywhere and a steady supply of high-class girlfriends. What Farish is doing is making his stallions even more comfortable, having just built the multimillion dollar complex to showcase his animals and attract investors to the farm. His farm has landed Alysheba, thoroughbred racing’s all-time leading money winner, to go along with three other young stallions that could make Farish’s young farm the premier racing-and-breeding operation within the next few years. Ask a Kentucky horseman, and he’ll probably tell you it’s a whole lot easier to become President of the United States than it is to set up your own racing and breeding operation in central Kentucky.
Thank God It’s ‘Friday’: A Look Back At The 1995 Friday House
Farish & Co. investment firm in Houston, the company that once managed Bush’s blind trust--and he’s had dealings in oil and gas exploration, mining, cattle ranching and local television stations. Bush might be making new friends during his presidency, but it’s a safe bet that none of them will supplant Farish. Most Presidents this century have had their one or two intimates, people to hang out with and not worry about some of their loose talk showing up in the newspapers. At the time, Arthur Bachelier of Phoenix was listed as a co-owner of the Monocle LLC. The Arizona Republic learned he was a sex offender accused of violating his lifetime parole. Also, as a sex offender, Bachelier would not be eligible to receive a liquor license.
Farish House restaurant at 816 N. Third Street in downtown Phoenix - The Arizona Republic
Farish House restaurant at 816 N. Third Street in downtown Phoenix.
The original project, called The Monocle, hung a "coming soon" sign on the property, but it never got off the ground. Hassler, her family and team spent about six months renovating the home. That included removing a fireplace installed when the restaurant was Roosevelt Tavern to expose the original fireplace that was behind. Chef Lori Hassler has opened a casual but elegant restaurant on the historic property at 816 N. Third St. Called The Farish House, the dinner-only restaurant opened quietly in February.
Arizona does not allow felons to receive such licenses until five years after their date of conviction. From 2004 to 2008, she and her husband owned Radda Caffe-Bar in Scottsdale, a well-regarded Tuscan-style Italian restaurant and wine bar. For fans of the bygone spot, Hassler says "a couple of recipes are finding their way here," but Farish House will not focus on Italian cuisine. Farish House represents Hassler's return to the restaurant industry after spending the most recent years in the wine-import business. You’ll be in much better shape ordering Hassler’s homey cassoulet, that soul-soothing French-Mediterranean classic, made by slow-cooking white beans with pork skin and other meats in an earthenware pot. This version may not rival Charleen Badman’s bar-setting cassoulet over at FnB, but it works – combining creamy twice-baked white beans with roasted pork, sausage ragout and duck leg confit.
The queen owns about two dozen mares, and each trip to Kentucky gives her a chance to set up those mares with the leading stallions. There’s never any stud fee charged the queen, and the Lexington Herald-Leader estimated last year that the royal purse saved about $800,000 from not paying the fees. Many presidential friends have seemed to be in the mold of Bebe Rebozo, the close friend of Richard Nixon. Rebozo would spend hours with Nixon talking about nothing but professional football.

Farish was elected president of his senior class, but he says he spent so much time on the polo field that he didn’t get around to graduating. Lane’s End Farm, just outside Versailles (that’s ver-SALES in Kentucky) looks more like a small national park. The grass is cut to a uniform length, the dark-stained fence rows look as if they were laid out by the Army Corps of Engineers.
Friday is an American-stoner movie released in 1995 starring Ice Cube (Craig Jones) and Chris Tucker (Smokey). The film centers around the two unemployed best friends needing to pay a local drug dealer by Friday night. Almost all of the normal words used on a farm have somehow lost their meaning. A “horse barn,” for instance, looks more like some kind of drive-through dormitory. After the elder Farish’s sudden death, his wife and daughter continued racing, and their biggest success came in the 1970s with the champion gelding Forego, which set records as an all-time money winner. It’s been said that Bush sees in Farish the kind of successful business career he might have had if he had not chosen politics.
So running across a charming new restaurant like The Farish House, located near Roosevelt Row and named for the 1899 brick home in which it resides, warms the cockles of my vintage-loving little heart. In its most recent former life, the atmospheric old Victorian played host to a hip arts-district restaurant called The Roosevelt Tavern, from Matt’s Big Breakfast founder Matt Pool, which shuttered in 2012. After that, it fell into a strangely prolonged period of disuse. Evidently, one enterprising soul wanted to turn it into a cocktail bar called The Monocle, but was waylaid when his sex-offender past came to light, spooking his investors. Family owned and operated, the Farish House serves up classics such as cassoulet, Angus ribeye, mac n’ cheese and a bevy of small bites, cheeses and charcuterie in a charming turn-of-the-century home and patio setting. Our saloon features pre-prohibition era wine estates and cocktails.
It was pure recreation for Nixon, without any mention of politics, government or foreign policy. When the marriage was barely a year old, Farish decided he wanted to dabble in politics, and approached a family friend about helping in his campaign for the U.S. Barbara Bush describes how Farish traveled around Texas in 1964 as the key aide in that first, unsuccessful try for the Senate. Farish’s paternal grandfather dabbled in thoroughbreds, but at the outset of World War II he decided to expand his stable, to seriously get into racing. The Friday house is located at 1418 W 126th St, Los Angeles, California. Built in 1955, this property features 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a 7,001 sq ft lot, and 1,282 sq ft of living space.
This is most likely due to space, the property doesn’t have much room for cameramen, sound guys, and the actors themselves. Fans of the 1995 movie ‘Friday’ will most likely recognize this house as the ‘Friday house’. It was the home of Craig Jones, where he and his friend Smokey would spend much of their time smoking on the porch, watching the world go bye.
Farish just barely remembers his father or his grandfather, William Stamps Farish, who had died of a sudden heart attack six months earlier. When Bush won the presidency, he vacationed at Farish’s Florida home. Every New Year’s for 20 years, the two men have gone quail hunting on Farish’s Lazy F Ranch near Beeville, Tex. Will Farish is driving across his Kentucky horse farm, mashing the accelerator of his dark green Range Rover, nudging the speedometer just over 50. It seems very fast on the rolling, 12-foot-wide roads Farish has laid out on his picture-perfect 3,000-acre spread. While the property has been vacant since the closure of Roosevelt Tavern, a bar planned for the space made the home the focus of much unwanted attention in 2017.
Hassler decorated each of the home's five rooms in the style popular at the turn of the century. That includes a color palate of rose pink, canary yellow and deep red; and framed black-and-white photos of Hassler's family. Pictures of her grandfather, great-grandparents and other family members hang in the restaurant's entryway and bar. While the porch outside the house was the main focus of the movie, some scenes did take place inside. However, it appears the interior scenes were actually filmed on a set.
If you’re a persnickety foodie who craves adventure, The Farish House may seem a bit tame. But for good wine and a simple, affordable meal before a show Downtown – if you hoof it the six blocks to Crescent Ballroom after your meal, it’s probably a calorie-neutral proposition – it’s pretty hard to beat. Hassler’s list is fun like that, featuring affordable wines, many from venerable wineries more than 100 years old.
Perhaps because Farish never lived in Kentucky before the 1970s, he didn’t know that what he was planning just couldn’t be done. After all, one just cannot aspire to be a leading horseman; one has to be bred to be a horseman. Now, the Bushes and the Farishes talk about each other in family terms. Fred Chambers, a wealthy oilman and, like Farish, a one-time business partner. If Chambers was like a young father to Bush, then Farish is like an older son. He also jokes that he read the Daily Racing Form more than his history and political science texts and admits that he spent a lot of time handicapping thoroughbred races across the country.

Scharbauer was calling to tell Farish he had decided to let the stallion stay at Lane’s End, a decision that could take Farish right to the top of the horse business. After purchasing his first thoroughbred horse 26 years ago, Farish has now positioned himself to become one of the biggest--if not the biggest--horseman in an industry that isn’t known for its hospitality to new entrants. Farish says he’ll always be one of Bush’s biggest boosters, and he’s ready at a moment’s notice to make the resume argument in favor of Bush’s being the best-prepared man ever to become President. It’s also clear that Bush regularly asks Farish’s advice on the budget, domestic policy and politics. Laura Farish, one of his four children, works in the White House as one of Bush’s scheduling aides. She says the President is like anyone’s close family friend except that he just happens to be the President.

Articles with the “HISTORY.com Editors” byline have been written or edited by the HISTORY.com editors, including Amanda Onion, Missy Sullivan, Matt Mullen and Christian Zapata. Given the shortcomings of the government created by the Articles of Confederation, the framers soon realized that a bicameral legislature at the national level would foster a more representative central government. The Articles of Confederation were drafted in 1777 and ratified in 1781, but the government they established soon proved inadequate to the task of governing the large and boisterous new nation.

Democrats put up a big vote — 174 — in favor of this bill, which was intended to sweeten the overall package for conservatives. One primary way that Congress conducts oversight is through hearings. The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform and the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Government Affairs are both devoted to overseeing and reforming government operations, and each committee conducts oversight in its policy area.

Finally, it was agreed to exclude both delegations from the election and a speaker was finally chosen on December 17. The House also has one permanent committee that is not a standing committee, the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, and occasionally may establish temporary or advisory committees, such as the Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming. This latter committee, created in the 110th Congress and reauthorized for the 111th, has no jurisdiction over legislation and must be chartered anew at the start of every Congress. The House also appoints members to serve on joint committees, which include members of the Senate and House. Some joint committees oversee independent government bodies; for instance, the Joint Committee on the Library oversees the Library of Congress. Other joint committees serve to make advisory reports; for example, there exists a Joint Committee on Taxation.

Echoing one of the many grievances shared by hard-right Republicans who opposed all of the aid measures, Mr. Good said his support for “Israel’s right to defend itself remains unshakeable” but that he disagreed with a measure that would add to the nation’s debt. If Congress is in session and the President takes no action within 10 days, the bill becomes law. If Congress adjourns before 10 days are up and the President takes no action, then the bill dies and Congress may not vote to override.
Elections
The House of Representatives has 435 members, with each of the 50 states electing varying numbers of legislators according to the size of their population. The number rose following the ratification of the Constitution by North Carolina and Rhode Island in 1790; the first Congress (1789–91) adjourned with 65 representatives. Two additional representatives were added temporarily after the admission of Alaska and Hawaii as states in 1959, but at the next legislative apportionment, membership returned to 435, the number authorized by a law enacted in 1941.

The Speaker of the House is also the second person in the U.S. presidential line of succession—the order in which presidents are replaced if they die, resign or are removed from office—after the Vice President and before the President pro tempore of the Senate.
Leadership
As the office has developed historically, however, it has taken on a clearly partisan cast, very different from the speakership of most Westminster-style legislatures, such as the speaker of the United Kingdom's House of Commons, which is meant to be scrupulously non-partisan. The speaker in the United States, by tradition, is the head of the majority party in the House of Representatives, outranking the majority leader. However, despite having the right to vote, the speaker usually does not participate in debate and only votes on the most significant bills. If the full committee votes to approve the bill, it is reported to the floor of the House or Senate, and the majority party leadership decides when to place the bill on the calendar for consideration. Each of the two political parties also elect a “Whip”—the Majority Whip for the party with the most seats, and the Minority Whip for the other party—from their House delegations. The whip’s official role is to count potential votes for bills being debated for the party leaders.
An earlier version of this article incorrectly identified the political party of a group of representatives who notably voted “no” on new aid for Israel. John Boehner was elected speaker when the 112th Congress convened on January 5, 2011, and was subsequently re-elected twice, at the start of the 113th and 114th Congresses. The power of the speaker was greatly augmented during the tenure of the Republican Thomas Brackett Reed (1889–1891, 1895–1899). Reed, however, declared that members who were in the chamber but refused to vote would still count for the purposes of determining a quorum.
One of the most influential speakers in history was Democrat Sam Rayburn.[48] Rayburn had the most cumulative time as speaker in history, holding office from 1940 to 1947, 1949 to 1953, and 1955 to 1961. He helped shape many bills, working quietly in the background with House committees. He also helped ensure the passage of several domestic measures and foreign assistance programs advocated by Presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt and Harry Truman. Both chambers of Congress have extensive investigative powers, and may compel the production of evidence or testimony toward whatever end they deem necessary. Members of Congress spend much of their time holding hearings and investigations in committee. Refusal to cooperate with a congressional subpoena can result in charges of contempt of Congress, which could result in a prison term.
Established by Article I of the Constitution, the Legislative Branch consists of the House of Representatives and the Senate, which together form the United States Congress. The Constitution grants Congress the sole authority to enact legislation and declare war, the right to confirm or reject many Presidential appointments, and substantial investigative powers. Although this process means that only a fraction of proposed legislation actually becomes law, the framers of the Constitution wanted careful deliberation in which diverse views are heard and our rights as citizens are represented and defended.
This is called a pocket veto, and if Congress still wants to pass the legislation, they must begin the entire process anew. Interestingly, although the Senate is sometimes referred to as the “upper body,” and the House as the “lower body,” the two legislative bodies hold the same amount of power within the U.S. system. Both must agree to, vote on and adopt pieces of identical legislation (known as bills) in order for the legislation to become law. The U.S. House of Representatives is the lower house of Congress and plays a vital role, along with the Senate, in the process of moving proposed legislation to law.
Besides the representative from each state, there are a small number of delegates and a resident commission. Information about any legal expenses incurred by a candidate or current representative. Elected by the whole of the House of Representatives, the Speaker acts as leader of the House and combines several institutional and administrative roles. A member of the House is referred to as a representative, congressman, or congresswoman.
Hastert played a much less prominent role than other contemporary speakers, being overshadowed by House Majority Leader Tom DeLay and President George W. Bush. A further dominating element of House organization is the committee system, under which the membership is divided into specialized groups for purposes such as holding hearings, preparing bills for the consideration of the entire House, and regulating House procedure. Almost all bills are first referred to a committee, and ordinarily the full House cannot act on a bill until the committee has “reported” it for floor action.
After being introduced, a bill is referred to the appropriate committee for review. There are 17 Senate committees, with 70 subcommittees, and 23 House committees, with 104 subcommittees. The committees are not set in stone, but change in number and form with each new Congress as required for the efficient consideration of legislation. Each committee oversees a specific policy area, and the subcommittees take on more specialized policy areas. For example, the House Committee on Ways and Means includes subcommittees on Social Security and Trade. Members of the House are elected every two years and must be 25 years of age, a U.S. citizen for at least seven years, and a resident of the state (but not necessarily the district) they represent.
In the House of Representatives, the legislative schedule (which defines when bills are debated and voted upon) is set by the body’s leader, known as the Speaker of the House. The Speaker, who is chosen among the membership of the political party with the most seats in the House, establishes the legislative priorities for the body and presides over the deliberation of bills under consideration. To regain control of the House, Democrats needed a pick-up of 15 seats. According to original analysis by Ballotpedia, only 26 congressional districts were predicted to be competitive in 2014. When the presidency and Senate are controlled by a different party from the one controlling the House, the speaker can become the de facto "leader of the opposition". Some notable examples include Tip O'Neill in the 1980s, Newt Gingrich in the 1990s, John Boehner in the early 2010s, and Nancy Pelosi in the late 2000s and again in the late 2010s and early 2020s.

Provides one hour of general debate equally divided and controlled by the chair and ranking minority member of the Committee on Ways and Means or their respective designees. The former Indiana congressman John Hostettler, who served in the House from 1995 to 2007 and will compete in a crowded primary on Tuesday, is looking to return to the chamber to represent the state’s eighth district. Hostettler’s allies praise him as an “America first conservative” who will help terminate financial aid to Ukraine, so his primary will also test Republicans’ embrace of isolationism, which has gained popularity in the party amid the rise of Donald Trump. But Jewish groups have criticized some of his past comments about the start of the Iraq war as antisemitic.

It was then revealed, by Livingston himself, who had been publicly critical of President Bill Clinton's alleged perjury during his sexual harassment trial, that he had engaged in an extramarital affair. He opted to resign from the House, despite being urged to stay on by House Democratic leader Gephardt. Subsequently, the chief deputy whip Dennis Hastert was selected as speaker.
Elections
The bicameral relationship between the two bodies is vital to the American system of checks and balances that the Founding Fathers of the United States envisioned when writing the U.S. The House of Representatives is part of the Legislative branch of government. The United States Congress has two chambers, one called the Senate and the other called the House of Representatives (or “House” for short) which share the responsibilities of the legislative process to create federal statutory law. [T]he constitutional prerogative of the House has been held to apply to all the general appropriations bills, and the Senate's right to amend these has been allowed the widest possible scope.
Checks and Balances in Congress
Montana’s successful state management resulted in gray wolves being 500 percent above Fish and Wildlife Service recovery goals. Idaho’s successful state management resulted in gray wolves being 700 percent above recovery goals. Furthermore, there are an estimated 7,000 to 11,000 gray wolves in Alaska.
U.S. Congressional Representatives
Furthermore, congressional tradition holds that the House of Representatives originates appropriation bills. During debates, a member may speak only if called upon by the presiding officer. The presiding officer decides which members to recognize, and can therefore control the course of debate.[62] All speeches must be addressed to the presiding officer, using the words "Mr. Speaker" or "Madam Speaker".
The Constitution empowers the House of Representatives to impeach federal officials for "Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors" and empowers the Senate to try such impeachments. The House may approve "articles of impeachment" by a simple majority vote; however, a two-thirds vote is required for conviction in the Senate. A convicted official is automatically removed from office and may be disqualified from holding future office under the United States.

O'Neill is the longest continuously serving speaker, from 1977 through 1987. He challenged Reagan on domestic programs and on defense expenditures. Republicans made O'Neill the target of their election campaigns in 1980 and 1982 but Democrats managed to retain their majorities in both years. Congress also maintains an investigative organization, the Government Accountability Office (GAO). Founded in 1921 as the General Accounting Office, its original mission was to audit the budgets and financial statements sent to Congress by the Secretary of the Treasury and the Director of the Office of Management and Budget. Today, the GAO audits and generates reports on every aspect of the government, ensuring that taxpayer dollars are spent with the effectiveness and efficiency that the American people deserve.
However, the North held no such advantage in the Senate, where the equal representation of states prevailed. The three primary House office buildings—Cannon, Longworth and Rayburn—share a room numbering system for above-ground rooms that might confuse visitors at first. The system is fairly straight forward and can be used to identify most member and committee offices merely by knowing the correct room number regardless of building. Waives all points of order against the amendments printed in the Rules Committee report.
On the other hand, when the speaker and the president belong to opposite parties, the public role and influence of the speaker tend to increase. As the highest-ranking member of the opposition party (and de facto leader of the opposition), the speaker is normally the chief public opponent of the president's agenda. In this scenario, the speaker is known for undercutting the president's agenda by blocking measures by the minority party or rejecting bills by the Senate. The United States is also divided into 435 congressional districts with a population of about 760,000 each.
They said before the vote that they opposed unfettered aid to Israel that could be used in its offensive in Gaza. The opposition to the Israel aid represented a minority of Democrats, but reflected the deep resistance to unconditional aid and the divisions in the party on Gaza. Representative Jamie Raskin of Maryland represented a notable new “no” vote among Democrats, and other standouts included Representatives Donald S. Beyer Jr. of Virginia, Earl Blumenauer of Oregon and John Garamendi of California.
Under his stewardship, Captain Van Allen undertook a significant feat by relocating the hotel approximately 300 feet further from the shoreline to its current position, driven by a visionary desire for future growth and expansion.

It’s suggested to apply this over the CT Lip Cheat shade Pillow Talk (CT Lip liner).

Well moisturised lips are a must, as they can feel drying. The Hot Lips swatch smoother and creamier, leaving little stain on the skin.

And in Portland, Oregon, in 2017, and then again earlier this year, police trapped protesters in a kettle, only allowing them to leave after they agreed to be photographed and show their IDs. The shooting revived scrutiny of a police department that drew national attention about three years ago when a white officer was quickly charged with voluntary manslaughter after he killed Jonathan Ferrell, an unarmed black man. Protesters clashed with police officers in riot gear and blocked a stretch of Interstate 85.

People started throwing things at police line and CMPD launched tear gas before instructing people to leave immediately or be arrested. Police said eight arrests have been made in connection with this incident, and two guns were seized. The protest was deemed unlawful because it took place on private property and impacted traffic, according to police. One post illustrated how the Eritrean cultural event was being protested by a rival group, but more information was not immediately available. "The people attending the event that was being protested have ended their event and left the scene. Protesters remain on scene and still have not dispersed," CMPD wrote at the time.

Even before September 11th, 2001 every time I checked into a hotel the first thing I made sure I knew was the quickest way out. It’s an instinct I’ve learned through almost three decades of travel. Whether you’re in a restaurant, theater, at a public rally, or in your own home if it goes up in flames it’s the seconds that matter when all hell breaks loose. The city donated the statue to the Heritage Center after approving its plan to melt down the bronze and use it for a new work of public art. But Douglas says they're moving forward with the process of gathering public input, and in a more inclusive way. Civic engagement in Charlottesville has increased in the last five years.
The officers left the area to retrieve equipment and don "marked duty vests" that would identify them as police officers. When they returned, they identified themselves as police officers and "gave clear, loud and repeated verbal commands to drop the gun". A uniformed officer arrived to assist and tried to break Scott's front passenger window with a baton.
Students staged a protest at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, and a vigil was held at the apartment complex where Mr. Scott had been killed the day before. Another resident, Mary Sutter, said she had trouble returning home from her job at a nearby high school because the neighborhood was so packed with police cars. “We’re all just shocked that this has happened here,” she said. How does the crime rate in Charlotte compare to similar sized communities across America? When NeighborhoodScout compared Charlotte with other communities its size, we found that the crime rate was near the average for all other communities of similar size. The slain officers were identified as Sam Poloche, Alden Elliott, Joshua Eyer and Thomas Weeks Jr.

Attorney General Daniel Cameron's office said it did not investigate Kenneth Walker or Breonna Taylor, claims of civil negligence by the officers or the narcotics case against Jamarcus Glove or the search warrant obtained for Taylor's apartment. "Since then a civilian's vehicle has been damaged and several protester's have been throwing objects such as scooters, signs and cones," CMPD described on Twitter. A morning protest over an international issue evolved into a violent day-long standoff in southeast Charlotte on Saturday. Borum’s appeal of his sentence centers around the type of malice that supported the second-degree murder conviction. Tyler Wilson told CBS affiliate WBTV he was working at home when he heard officers calling for someone to come out of a neighboring house.
The shooting prompted investigations by the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department, the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation, and the U.S. As is customary for the department, Vinson was placed on paid administrative leave pending an investigation. In November 2016, county prosecutors decided not to charge Vinson, concluding that the shooting was justified. Importantly, we found that Charlotte has one of the highest rates of motor vehicle theft in the nation according to our analysis of FBI crime data. This is compared to communities of all sizes, from the smallest to the largest.
Attorney General Merrick Garland said in a statement, "The Justice Department is heartbroken by the deaths of three of our own law enforcement colleagues, and we extend our deepest condolences to their loved ones as they grieve this unfathomable loss." Police said at least 30 protesters were arrested over the last few hours of the demonstrations and into the morning hours. The charges ranged from assault to illegal gun possession to possession of a dangerous weapon at a demonstration.
April Muniz sees the events in Charlottesville as a catalyst for far-right political violence. Gathers blames "continuous dog whistles" from President Trump that gave the white supremacists cover to come out of the shadows. "This represents a turning point for the people of this country," then-KKK leader David Duke declared at the time. "We're going to fulfill the promises of Donald Trump because he said he's going to take our country back." John continued, "What's going on is a matter of human rights, and objecting to any activity supporting the government of Eritrea and supporting them in any way because of the egregious lack of human rights or poor record in human rights." Pro-Eritrean regime events are usually organized by expats and are supported by the Eritrean government, Stauffer said.
During the news briefing Saturday evening, CMPD said they were unaware beforehand that a protest had been planned nor were they in the loop about the event. A spokesperson said they had made contacts during the incident both with protesters and the group hosting the event and would be doing follow-up work. Officers said they were called to a business around noon because a group of people were blocking the entrance to it to try and prevent an event from happening. While the group of people putting on the event was eventually able to get in side, the protesting group remained outside for several hours. CMPD said some protesters threw things like sticks and bottles at officers as well.
But while police across the U.S. have kettled protesters frequently, there is little official acknowledgement of the tactic, let alone any nationally recognized standards about best practices for its use. A day after the protest, Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Chief Kerr Putney defended officers’ actions. “There is nothing to indicate whatsoever that there was intentional abuse on the part of our officers,” he said in a statement.
