"Both the tactics and props used were a deliberate attempt to exasperate an anti-police sentiment and drive a divide in our community.

P.s., In boy scouts we learned knots. Those who weren't in boy scouts either learned from dads or older family friends, (or boy scouts.) By the time I was 10 I knew the proper way to make a hangman's noose - 13 loops as I recall. The idiots who did this are lucky their 'knot' didn't come apart. PATHETIC! Reminds me of the idiots not knowing how to make a Molotov Cocktail, another adolescent turning point for the slightly crazier sorts.
