Baker Kurrus is supported by the Little Rock Fraternal Order of Police, a group headed by a piece of shit that has no business wear...

At the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, managing editor David Bailey: “Our usual practice is we don’t write up events that are obviously for publicity.” In other words, events that are, well, fake news....

Maybe Gilchrist re ally believes that it helps his brothers in blue to oppose the idea that one should have a certain level of physical fitness to be a cop. After we published our story, The Arkansas Project learned that Gilchrist has an unusual background for someone who speaks on behalf of the police — namely, Gilchrist’s hist...
