soon to be former mayor’s train-wreck taco video…
Wednesday, 25. January 2012
Holy crap! Did you watch that whole thing? I don’t usually suggest watching anything on the internet in it’s entirety, but that is awesome. I imagine it’s what getting a tattoo is like; painful, yet enjoyable.
That guy is named Joseph Maturo and he is the mayor of East Haven, Connecticut and he is awesome in the stupidity of his answer and his making-matters-worse attempt at backpedaling. This is the story the reporter is asking him about, from this story:
The public fiasco began Tuesday with the announcement by federal officials that the FBI had arrested four East Haven police officers on charges that they conspired to deprive some residents, particularly Latinos, of their constitutional rights. The charges include multiple counts of excessive force, false arrest, obstruction and conspiracy.
“What are you going to do for the Latino community?”
How about something like: If the charges are true, we will work with the police department and local community leaders to ensure nothing of this sort happens to anyone.
Nope, he goes with: “I may have tacos for dinner.”
Amazing!
