August 16, 201412 yr A lot of people got duped big time. Safety isn't anything to take lightly. Whether the purge was real or not, I can't fault anyone for making a safe decision.
August 16, 201412 yr Time for me to hit the rack. My 7:00am wakeup call might kill me. #LouisvillePurge
August 16, 201412 yr I could absolutely murder some Jimmy John's right now. #LouisvillePurge Same here but unfortunately it's 4 am and they don't deliver to my house.
August 16, 201412 yr 6am Roll call to my Louisville peeps. Is anybody out there? I was going to ask if Louisville is still here? Or is it history? It's awfully quiet from that area this morning, and that is VERY odd! LOL!
August 16, 201412 yr In all seriousness, I do feel that after the backlash toward the police after the incidents downtown a few months ago, they were well served to take this seriously. It was a prank by one kid in the end, but without that certainty, LMPD did the right thing. But, in true Louisville fashion, there will now be backlash toward them for "overreacting". Overall, I think it was actually the rest if the world overreacting that is the funniest part of the whole thing. And the tweets last night were both saddening and hilarious. Nice to see so many people who don't even know anyone in Louisville tweeting out their prayers and love for Louisvillians.

If something bad happened, people would have been up in arms about why it wasn't prevented. No win situation for the Louisville PD IMO, and it was through no fault of their own.
August 16, 201412 yr Exactly. "Nobody move, nobody gets hurt!" :lol2: Glad to see you and your pancakes were never in harms way. The conspiracy buffs are going to have a field day on this "purge." Would have loved to have been in St. Mathews last night eating dinner outside somewhere and listen to the responses as national guard armored vehicles provided a presence. Have a safe, purge free weekend.
August 16, 201412 yr There was a skunk outside last night about 11:30. I'm fairly certain he purged. My English Pointer may have caused it. However he has no opposable thumbs, so the signs weren't his.
