Houston cops mistake band, clubgoers for New Orleanians

A Houston police officer allegedly went on a rampage at a popular music venue Friday night, attacking the band Two Gallants and numerous members of the audience.

Several persons were tasered and arrested at Walter's on Washington, including drummer Tyson Vogel of the San Francisco-based indie country-rock duo. A 14-year-old boy was among those stun-gunned.

You can read about it here, here, here and here.

All we're waiting for now is for upright Houstonians to "X" out "New Orleans Deadbeats" on their "Deport New Orleans Deadbeats NOW!" protest signs and write in "Hippie Freaks."

Looks like somebody down there needs to open up a can o' Virgil Tibbs on the Houston Police Department.
