Good Cop, Bad Citizen, Crazed Law

America, law, police, police state, The People, tyranny

I noticed two things this morning.

One was that WordPress assigned one of my previous Police State articles as a related companion to last night’s terrorism post. Two years ago I was concerned about the militarization of the domestic police in the U.S. Things have gotten only a little worse since then.

Second, was a new, somewhat-related column out there…

Now, as Eric Peters recounts, one Republican lawmaker would have the militarized police nearly immune from any consequences of their illegal activities towards We, the People.

Naturally, the solution to the problem of police abusing their authority is to hold them less accountable when they do exactly that.

Leave it to “law and order” Republicans such as Texas Sen. John Cornyn and Rep. Ted Poe to evolve such logic. They have put forth the Black and Blue – whoops, Back the Blue – act (see here) which would make it harder to sue run-amok law enforcers in civil court to recover damages resulting from actions undeniably illegal – while at the same time imposing more severe penalties on Mundanes who affront the holy person of a law enforcer than those imposed on Mundanes who do exactly the same thing.

Look for this law to pass. Republicrats always want to be seen as “tough.” Trump will go right along to show support for “the brave men and women in uniform.” Democraps really don’t care.

Some federal judge may show a little concern, maybe five years from now; he might undue the extra (double jeopardy) excessive self-defense penalties against victimized citizens. Or he may not. The immunity from civil prosecution will stand. One wonders (if one is so inclined) if this prohibition includes 1983 (federal civil rights) actions – frequently the only recourse in the event of police brutality.

In Old England (and in the Colonies and the early Republic) there was a common law doctrine that a person (and witnesses) had a right and even an obligation to forcibly resist illegal police activity. Ancient history. Today it is virtually impossible to hold a wayward officer accountable. Soon it may be completely impossible.

Most officers I have ever known or encountered are/were decent and honest. That’s good because the bad ones are about to get more than a pass. It will be more like a rubber stamp of approval. Progress and such.

“You Have Parked Illegally and Must Pay a Fine. You Have Twenty Seconds to Comply…”

future, police, robots, tyranny

I love to kid about the machines but they are real. And the time to stop their rise was yesterday. Prepare yourselves for the cold, metallic future.

The “world’s first operational Robocop” has been unveiled in Dubai as part of the emirate’s planned robot police force.

Robocop started work on Sunday and is already making a name for itself.

At 5ft 5in tall and weighing 100kg, it can speak six languages and is designed to read facial expressions.

It had an easy start to working life, being unveiled at the three-day long Gulf Information Security Expo and Conference.

But when the Expo draws to a close tomorrow, it will be released into the wider world and tackle real life issues.

The machine has a built-in tablet so people can use it pay fines or report crimes, and can also transmit and receive messages from police headquarters.

“[a] built-in tablet so people can use it pay fines [SIC].” Isn’t that nice. Due Process-bot will take your money now. (Read about that Chinese people-herder too).

Today it is five foot five and weighs 200 pounds. Tomorrow it will be 12 feet tall and weigh 3,000 pounds. And it won’t take “no” for an answer. It won’t care that your government-driven robo-car parked itself illegally.

Some will call this progress…

BATF Suspects Some California Police Break Guns Laws

ATF, crime, firearms, police

Bearing Arms reports on various irregularities found in So Cal by the ATF:

Violations include selling a firearm without a license (FFL status). Some officers were also purchasing firearms with the intent to resell them or purchasing a firearm on behalf of someone else, which would make them a straw purchaser.

According to ATF’s Los Angeles’ spokeswoman Ginger Colbrun, the ATF is wanting to educate law enforcement officers.

“There is no extra consideration,” Colburn told the San Diego Union Tributor “We believe the most effective way to stop the behavior is to educate law enforcement in what the laws are and aren’t.”

The California Police Chiefs Association sent out the memo last week. Local law enforcement officers forwarded the memo on to their officers and deputies.

“I sent it out to every single one of my cops saying, ‘Don’t forget. This is the way it’s supposed to be done.’ …I felt (the memo) was a reminder that these are the rules and we are not exempt from them,” Escondido Police Chief Craig Carter said.

Coming to a city near you! My Gun Culture.

Yes, this is the same ATF that ran tens of thousands of guns (and a few heavier weapons) to the cartels in Mexico. The pot knows a kettle when it sees one.

UnCivil Forfeiture: The Highwaymen Ride Again

civil forfeiture, government, money, police, theft

Do not EVER consent to a search by the highwaymen police. I’ve written about this evil before. Today Mark Nestmann further explores the uncivil nature of “civil” forfeiture in the United States:

But it’s not just state and local governments that are getting in on all the fun. Federal law has authorized civil forfeiture since the dawn of the Republic more than two centuries ago. And it’s become quite profitable. The Department of Justice alone seized more than $4.5 billion in 2014. It’s just one of many federal agencies with the authority to confiscate property under federal civil forfeiture laws.

That should come as no surprise. In 1989, the Supreme Court actually ruled the federal government has a legitimate financial interest to maximize forfeiture revenues. Since then, federal agencies have developed highly sophisticated techniques to do just that.

Take the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), for instance. Earlier this year, an investigation revealed that the DEA routinely carries out “data mining” of Americans’ travel information to build profiles of individuals who might be carrying large sums of cash. Using a nationwide network of travel industry informants, the DEA gives special attention to individuals who meet secret “drug courier” profiles, such as buying one-way tickets or purchasing their tickets with cash. Amtrak and airline employees who pass information on to the DEA are eligible for generous commissions if the tip leads to a seizure.

Over the last decade, the agency has seized at least $209 million in cash from 5,200 passengers. In the vast majority of cases, the passengers weren’t arrested; they were given a receipt for the seized cash and sent on their way. For instance, of 1,600 DEA forfeitures in Los Angeles in the last 10 years, only one was in connection with a criminal investigation.

Are you outraged? You should be – and it’s probably about to get worse. President-elect Donald Trump has proposed a “Restoring Community Safety Act” that he claims will reduce “surging” crime in America’s cities. But the fact is that violent crime nationwide has actually been falling for the last 25 years. Given the love affair police at all levels of government have for civil forfeiture, it’s inconceivable that a Trump anti-crime bill won’t further unleash the forfeiture squads in America.

What Was There To Remember?

banksters, crime, DOJ, Good God!, Hillary Clinton, police, terrorism, Wikileaks

I get the FBI part. No justice should ever be expected from the department named after it.

3a20469000000578-3911032-comey_sent_this_letter_announcing_the_fbi_s_finding_after_examin-a-135_1478467947999

DOJ [SIC] / Daily Mail.

But I feel a little betrayed by Anonymous. The 5th to Remember came and went. The FBI made its decision and Anon did nothing. Even as they suggest (convincingly) a link between Hillary, Huma, and radical Islamic terrorism, they do nothing. Maybe tonight or tomorrow. But one begins to wonder. They have pictures and video, they say, in addition to emails. Why hold them?

The case is now left in the hands of Julian Assange and Wikileaks. Hillary must still fear something as she is warning about “fake” emails forthcoming.

Julian did point to Hillary’s roll in the Goldman Sachs criminal syndicate and its (her) ties to Saudi Arabia. This dovetails with Anonymous’s video hints. The actions of the State Department, the banksters, the MIC, and ISIS/al-Queda should have been enough for an investigation. Unless it was all “official” policy. Policy to spread terrorism, wreck a nation and destabilize a region, and loot a few $100 Billion for the elites.

That, I thought, was the major crime. The political corruption I would have let go as standard operating procedure (even involving people not named Clinton). The Satanism fits too, considering this crowd. But I had no idea about the sex trafficking. How on Earth can that go investigated if not unpunished.

It all makes sense in a way. I’ve pointed out again and again that the government only cares about power and protecting the money (even if that means stealing it and killing people to do so); they care nothing about people, especially children. See the Denny Hastert fiasco for proof of that.

If there is to be justice, it is up to: Assange; the NYPD, or; the voters. One hopes there is a real life Stabler and Benson team gearing up for a press conference tomorrow.

President Trump will need to clean the house – burn it down, rather. Hopefully he will make good on his promise for a special prosecutor for this case.

Pitiful.

An older, external hammer model. I believe my identification (if correct) is a news first. Originally, on a guess, I said it could have been a Hi-Point 9.

NY Post.

The videos from the police are a little less clear. I have seen two from the NY Times and the Post. I hear there is more footage available. I’ll try to get some of it up soon.

Update:

The Times released a two segment (body cam and dash) video.

In these videos Scott is partially visible. However it is hard or impossible to see if anything is in his hands. There are other videos which may shed some light on this.

Civil Liberties Feel the Sting of the Police State

ACLU, America, crime, evil, freedom, government, police, police state, stingray, warrant

Nature’s stingray is an animal unassuming and yet not to be trifled with. One killed famed crocodile hunter Steve Irwin. The lesson for surviving around these beautiful fish is to leave them alone.

stingray-ocean-floor.jpg.adapt.945.1

National Geographic.

The police have a device, a surveillance tool, named after the humble stingray. This insidious peace of technological malice mimics cell-phone towers. It tricks your phone into communicating with it. Once a link is established the stingray can listen to and record conversations and search through stored data. All of this is generally accomplished without a warrant.

The ACLU is a mixed bag. On the one had they champion many causes which seem at odds with American societal fabric – or, at least the fabric of the of the former country. However, they also consistently target out of control police state tactics. Thus, they have an active, searchable map of which agencies have these devices and how they are used. Please consult the map to discover whether you might be at risk.

nimbus-image-1472321833204

American Civil Liberties Union.

WE, who value freedom, owe the ACLU for producing this service.

Efforts are afoot to legislate limit on how the Stingray and related machines are used. Most of those will fail. Even if they succeed, the technology will change and cause further problems.

Cellular transmissions are considered “open-air” and can usually be intercepted without a warrant. Technically, anyone with the right equipment could access the subject information. There are really only two ways to beat this terror. One, encrypt calls and information. This is difficult and increasingly illegal. The other way is to limit phone activity and to shield the phone from transmitting or receiving signals when not in use. This is possible but burdensome. There is a third way – don’t have a modern phone – but that is rather self-defeating.

For now, just beware that more and more criminal government agents are able to eavesdrop on you.

**I noticed the ACLU has an Election 2016 page. I looked at it. The first thing that caught my eye was this picture:

nimbus-image-1472322291187

ACLU.

Look at those two faces. This perfectly captures the essence of the Great Quadrennial Black Mass. Ha!

Of course, after the picture, the ACLU takes Hillary over Trump. That’s their right. I just love the sour-puss pictures.

 

 

 

 

Best (Worst?) of the Web: Some News

"Refugees", America, crime, Donald Trump, Europe, internet, money, police, savages, terrorism, violence

I cultivated several stories I wanted to cover today. Rather than make a post out of each I have decided to combine them here. They’re all interesting if a little disquieting. Enjoy:

“He white – beat his head – bitch!”

An actual quote from a riote … er … urban social enthusiast in Milwaukee this weekend. The vibrants were out in force, having a good, innocent time. Much of the action was caught on camera.

The clip shows angry rioters chanting “black power!” before asking “is they white?” as cars slowly drive past.

“Yeah they white!” states someone else, prompting the mob to run towards the vehicle.

“Yeah they white, get their ass!” screams another.

“Hey they beatin’ up every white person!” exclaims another rioter.

“He white – beat his head – bitch!” he adds.

The footage appears to show the mob attacking cars and trying to drag out the drivers.

The SJWs in the room would remind you that this is not racism. It is and it really won’t end well. “He white! Get that muth … [expletive!] … He got a gun!” And guns are the answer to this blight on civilization. Think you can or should call the cops to save you? Think again…

Innocent Georgia Family, Victimized by Police, Still Hanging in the Breeze.

Last year I told you about the McKinley family of metro Atlanta. They were at home minding their own business when the cops broke in (mistakenly). Mr. McKinely was shot in the leg, his dog was killed, and his family traumatized. The idiot cops also managed to shoot each other.

A year later the family still hasn’t gotten any answers although police did give them some of the blame. This incredible insult to injury followed with even more official incompetence and corruption. The family is planning to sue. They should seek an injunction effectively disbanding the police department.

As if our domestic thugs and trigger-happy, moron police aren’t enough…

“Refugees” are Smashing Cars Just for Fun.

In Calais, France migrant savages are having a fun time smashing stopped cars on the local roads. The situation in Europe is completely out of control.

A number of people have left comments of support, and expressing anger at the situation in Calais. Nathalie Brioit said it is “a shame they have all the rights,” while Marine Gabrielle confessed “I no longer use the highway as I’m so scared.”

The damage comes just weeks after lorry drivers using the route warned yet again that it is only a matter of time before someone is killed by a migrant. In early August a driver was threatened by a migrant wielding a chainsaw during a night of violence which also saw lorries burned out.

…

“You’re leaving work and then you’re attacked by migrant shits just for fun – it disgusts me!” commented Maëva Mayla, in a post which has been shared by more than 6,000 people.

I’m proud of Mayla for correctly calling them what they are: migrant shits. That’s a good start; identify the problem. Then comes solving it. I do not as of yet know who let the dogs out. But I do know who let the shits in. They have names like Merkle, Cameron and Hollande. When the savages are repatriated, these louts need to go with them. That, or to the gallows.

f194ce23ac5c66899b2f0530c8eea4ba

“Refugees” having fun on the roads. Pinterest.

By the way, by computer, tablet, or phone, you’re reading this sentence by way of the internet.

Donald Trump Wants to Ban the Internet.

A friend reminded me that the Donald made that remark last December in a speech about extremism (on the internet, not his in wanting to ban the internet). I actually checked with Snopes and it checks out partly true. He’s not calling for a total ban. Instead he wants Bill Gates to tell him which sites need to be shut down. I’m not sure how this would work but, knowing the government, due process would not be included.

If they’re after extremists, go after the extremists. They’re easy to find (see the above stories). Leave me and my website alone. Less freedom is never the answer – with the web or with money…

Goodbye Cash.

Retail stores in Sweden have stopped taking cash and some think America needs to follow. Funny, Sweden bans cash but welcomes violent rapists and Mohammadens. Interesting.

Cash isn’t in any danger of disappearing, but maybe it should: The U.S. has much to gain by phasing out cash, according to researchers from Tufts University. Writing in the Harvard Business Review, they noted that the U.S. spends $200 billion each year to keep cash in circulation. (China also has high costs related to reliance on cash, they noted.)

Wouldn’t it be easier for the Tufts researchers to move to Sweden? They’re probably not violent and backwards enough but they could give it a try.

The problem here is the total and complete control the elites in government and banking want over your money. If there’s no way for you to physically hold it, it isn’t really yours. One button press and they could have it all. That, and they will know each and every purchase you make. I know, I know. If you’re not doing anything wrong, you have nothing to worry about. Just like that Atlanta family.

I’m Perrin Lovett, and that’s news to me.

Baltimore, corruption, DOJ, police

This is rich. The Department of Justice [SIC] has issued directives or warnings to the City of Baltimore over the city’s police policies. Baltimore officials are falling in line as fast as they can.

Baltimore’s top law enforcement and political leaders on Wednesday vowed a sweeping overhaul of the city Police Department after a searing rebuke of the agency’s practices, which the Justice Department said regularly discriminated against black residents in poor communities.

This is the same Justice [SIC] Department that refused to formally investigate the Clinton Foundation despite urging from the FBI. The same Department that appears to be doing nothing about the murder of a possible informant in the DNC email hacking scandal. The same DOJ that found that Hillary Clinton had technically violated a criminal statute by carelessly handling classified information but then declined to prosecute her … just because…

I’m sure there is rank corruption in Baltimore. That’s true for most cities and governments. But, a lecture from the DOJ on the same is ridiculous hypocrisy. Pot, kettle. Then again, maybe the story has been misconstrued; maybe the DOJ is giving Baltimore tips, not corrections.

Innocent Until Shot Anyway

America, crime, government, police, tyranny

The following story kind of torpedoes the sayings: “If you ain’t done nothing wrong, you ain’t got nothing to worry about,” and “Comply with the officer’s commands”.

Watch the video:

NORTH MIAMI, FLA. (WSVN) – A therapist who works at a group home for the disabled is still in shock after a North Miami Police officer shot him, but according to the Police Union president, that officer may have been aiming for someone else.

Thursday afternoon, the North Miami Police Department released a statement saying that officer has been placed on administrative leave. They have yet to identify the officer but they described him as a 30-year-old Hispanic male who has been with the department for four years.

Protesters gathered outside the North Miami Police Headquarters with signs and questions about how an unarmed man with his hands up could be shot by police.

Cellphone video was released Wednesday afternoon showing of Charles Kinsey lying on the ground with his hands in the air, telling officers that weapons are not necessary. Police were summoned to the scene by a 911 caller on Monday saying someone was armed and suicidal.

HANDS IN AIR

Good deed getting punished. News 7 Miami.

Based on the video, I wonder who the hell the other person they were shooting at was. The mentally challenged man playing with (armed with) the toy truck?

This man was doing his job, a very compassionate job. He wasn’t doing anything wrong. He shouldn’t have had anything to worry about. There was no danger (other than from the cops) at the scene. The man did exactly as instructed and remained calm, trying both to de-escalate the officers and to help his charge. The police said they were trying to save him … so they shot him.

All this happened because some busybody called 911 – a practice that gets a lot of innocent people beaten, body-slammed, tazed, shot, hospitalized and murdered. Calling 911 is talking to the police. One should NEVER do that. In addition to giving the police something to use against the caller (anything you say can and will be used against you…) and it gets people shot, etc.

Luckily, the good Samaritan lived. It appears he will recover and be compensated for his almost being murdered. The special needs man with the toy truck appears to be okay. Very lucky. The specific officer who opened fire should be in prison. The police department should be disbanded.
