Fake Police Checkpoint

RT reports:

The Mayfield Heights, Ohio Police Department is under fire after the city recently decided to establish a “drug checkpoint” on Interstate 271. Randomly stopping cars and combing them for contraband is illegal, though, so law enforcement has been using the next best thing: fake checkpoints.

Cops in the Cleveland suburb of only 19,000 have been placing warning signs ahead of a bogus stop and then monitoring the behavior of drivers. If any cars demonstrate suspicious activity after being alerted of the phony roadblock, police say that’s enough to stop and search them.>

Police tried the trick last week when they erected signs reading "Drug Checkpoint Ahead," "Police K9 Dog In Use" and "Prepare to Stop." When they spotted cars trying to turn around, officers were deployed to find out why.

Police truly, honestly have nothing better to do with their time...

Brazil Protests

With all the hoopla around Edward Snowden, the NSA, Turkey's protests, and Syria's civil war, Brazil's protests have been slightly over shadowed.  What started as a demonstration against a hike in public transportation's costs turned in to nearly a million people in the streets protesting the government in general.  It is incredible to see these kinds of uprisings occurring around the world.  It is also laughable when the prime minister of Turkey laments that the same forces that caused the rebellion in his country also caused the rebellion in Brazil.  He is correct, just not in the way he assumes.

The prime minister thinks that there is some nefarious plot to create these rebellions, when in reality the similar force that caused both rebellions is suppression from political elites.  The elite in each individual country are taking actions to cause these uprisings and it is only a matter of time before the American people wake up and join the Tea Party and the Occupy movement en masse.

With all of that said, the protests in Brazil have been one of the least violent.  There have been reports of police joining the protestors as well as the government giving in to their demands and lowering the price hike for busses.  So all in all it looks like the people got what they wanted, unlike in Turkey and certainly unlike America.  However whenever you have hundreds of thousands of people in the street there is bound to be some police brutality, I'll leave you with these limited, but impactful impressions of what has been going  on in Brazil over the past couple of weeks.

ABC "Police" Terrorize College Student

.... This is where our tax dollars go, this is what cops spend their time doing.  Abolish the police, abolish the federal government, allow us to police ourselves and we'll be safer and happier.  Reason.com reports:

When a half-dozen men and a woman in street clothes closed in on University of Virginia student Elizabeth Daly, 20, she and two roommates panicked.

That led to Daly spending a night and an afternoon in the Albemarle-Charlottesville Regional Jail. Her initial offense? Walking to her car with bottled water, cookie dough and ice cream just purchased from the Harris Teeter in the Barracks Road Shopping Center for a sorority benefit fundraiser.

A group of state Alcoholic Beverage Control agents clad in plainclothes approached her, suspecting the blue carton of LaCroix sparkling water to be a 12-pack of beer. Police say one of the agents jumped on the hood of her car. She says one drew a gun. Unsure of who they were, Daly tried to flee the darkened parking lot.

"They were showing unidentifiable badges after they approached us, but we became frightened, as they were not in anything close to a uniform," she recalled Thursday in a written account of the April 11 incident.

"I couldn't put my windows down unless I started my car, and when I started my car they began yelling to not move the car, not to start the car. They began trying to break the windows. My roommates and I were ... terrified," Daly stated.

They began trying to break her window, even if this girl was guilty of possessing beer there is no reason for these officers to use such aggressive tactics.  They are allowed to try and break her window but if a citizen even nudged an officer they are arrested for assault.  ABOLISH THE POLICE!

Canadian Police Confiscate Guns en Masse

Due to local flooding in Calgary the Mountie's came riding in to town to secure all personal fire arms in the area.  According to Info Wars:


On Thursday, according to the Calgary Herald, the RCMP confiscated a “substantial amount” of firearms under the pretext of controlling the weapons and storing them for safekeeping.

“We just want to make sure that all of those things are in a spot that we control, simply because of what they are,” said Sgt. Brian Topham told the newspaper.

Residents are outraged by the high-handed measure.

“I find that absolutely incredible that they have the right to go into a person’s belongings out of their home,” said resident Brenda Lackey. “When people find out about this there’s going to be untold hell to pay.”

“It’s just like Nazi Germany, just taking orders,” another resident yelled as the Mounties prevented residents from entering the town south of Calgary.

“This is the reason the U.S. has the right to bear arms,” another resident, Charles Timpano, said as he pointed at a group of Mounties blockading the town.

Cops Run in to a School Guns a Blazing and Kill a Kid with a Pellet Gun

This is a tragic tale of just how incompetent American police are.  The story is extremely fishy so I don't even want to start  speculating on what really happened.  Continue on to form an opinion of your own... 

"On or about January 4, 2012, the assistant principle of Cummings Middle School notified the police that Jamie had a gun at the school," the complaint states. "Defendants arrived at the school and immediately started shooting at the door behind which Jaimie was standing. Jaimie had not fired the gun, nor had he tried to shoot anyone. The defendants did not try to calm the situation down and talk to Jaimie, who was only fifteen (15) years old; they came in guns blazing and simply shot Jaimie, killing him.

"After killing Jaimie, it was learned that the gun he had was only a pellet gun. Furthermore, the one police report plaintiff has been able to obtain mentions nothing about Jaimie pointing the gun at another student or at the police, only that the defendants were told by Ms. Brito, the assistant principal of the school, that Jaimie had a gun and was pointing it at the front door and that she had put the school on lockdown. At that point the report gets very vague, simply saying that defendant Aguilar had to resort to the use of deadly force. It appears that, in actuality, no one, not even Jaimie, was in danger at the time of his death."

***

"Ms. Gonzalez asked to see her son. The detective told her she couldn't and explained that the child is fourteen (14) and that he was not in a condition to be seen. Mrs. Gonzalez truly hoped it was not her son because Jaimie was fifteen (15). The doctor told Mrs. Gonzalez she could see her son and he proceeded to a hallway and into a room with a dead body. Mrs. Gonzalez confirmed that the body was Jaimie. No other family member had been contacted. Mrs. Gonzalez was told there was only one shot with entry from his arm and exit at his head, but the doctor confirmed that Jaimie was shot three (3) times and lost a lot of blood. One of the defendants told Mrs. Gonzalez to take Jaimie to Mexico to bury him there like all the rest of the Mexicans."

Gonzalez says the police then tried to hurry her out of the room, saying she needed to go with them and sign a statement, but she refused and asked them to call her husband.

"Mrs. Gonzalez remembers the defendants asking that Jaimie be taken away and saying that his father, Mr. Gonzalez, could not see Jaimie," the complaint states. "Later on, one of the defendants told Mrs. Gonzalez that supposedly there was a shooting because her son was carrying a gun. The defendants also told Mrs. Gonzalez that Jaimie was harassing other children at the school. Jaimie did not own a gun nor did he have access to a gun. The school never contacted either Mr. or Mrs. Gonzalez, during the incident or after the incident, although they had been very diligent and had frequent contact with her in the past regarding school events."

The Gonzalezes claim that when police shot their son he was "alone in the entry area and never posed an immediate threat to the safety of the individual defendants or anyone else."

***

The report by Sgt. Albert De La Rosa states that when police first saw Jaimie Gonzalez in the school's hallway, behind its locked door, he had what looked like a Glock handgun in his waistband.

An officer shot out the door's glass and Gonzalez retreated down the hallway. Officers approached and saw Gonzalez standing about 15 feet away from a student backed up into a corner. Gonzalez did not respond to officers' demands that he drop the gun and at some point he aimed it at his temple, and at officers.

De La Rosa wrote that he saw Gonzalez turn toward the student and gave the order to "take him out," and officers Raul Cazares and Everardo Longoria each fired one shot.

No police officers have been charged, The Herald reported.

Video from the incident has not been released...

An Open Letter from Inside the Most Insidious Police State to Ever Exist

Dear Citizens of the World,

I am an average American citizen.  This letter is to those citizens of the world who live in a place where true freedom still exists.  I'm not quite sure where these places are because the American media indoctrinates us all to believe that we are in the best place to live.  That the rest of the world is lesser than, or dangerous, or god forbid populated with dark skinned people.  We're told to keep paying our taxes and stop asking questions.  We're told that we're being listened to and watched for our own protection.  We're told that if it weren't for the massive federal government and their protection we would suffer attacks like the Boston Marathon every month.

Sadly that statement is a little backwards.  It is because of the federal government that we suffer any attacks at all.  It is because of the FBI that any underwear bombers or stock exchange attacks occur.  They reel patsies in claiming to help with the plan, provide most of if not all money and supplies, then arrest the person at the last minute.  In their minds they are getting someone off the street who had these plans fomenting to begin with.  But in reality most of these people were just crazy and would have never had the resources or will power to accomplish a true attack without the help of the feds at all.  So in order to justify their cut of the tax racket, every once in a while they have to set someone up to make it look like there is an actual threat to America.

So we live in a nation where our secret police are constantly spurring on people to attack America in order to later arrest them.  Is there any chance at all that once in a while these plans go awry and the planned set up turns in to a massacre?  It's possible.  We live in a nation where our secret police can go in to someones home claiming they are interrogating him.  Then when they leave the person has been shot 6 times, once in the head, and not a single officer on the scene can agree on why he was shot, yet their internal revue will almost certainly claim the shooting was justified.  Why is that?  Because any time a fed shoots someone they used their discretion, and a federal officers discretion is unquestionably reliable according to the government.  So even if the shooting kills the wrong person, that officer must have had a good reason in the moment to make that decision, so it is justified.

This is just the tip of the iceberg though when it comes to the subversion of American rights.  I understand that there are more brutal regimes in the world.  But there is no other regime whose tactics are so nefarious and have the potential to effect so many people.  The American government has run amok.  Their enforcers are allowed to kill anyone they want.  The politicians are no longer representative of the people.  The medical industry is held back by so much bureaucratic bullshit that they can hardly care for sick people.  School teachers are forced to teach to standardized tests rather than possibly be able to teach to an individual students strengths.  Our corporate controlled media is spied upon and held back from reporting any true news and those that do real investigative journalism are found dead in suspicious car wrecks.  Our entire society is crumbling and it is not due to any actions taken directly by the American people as a whole.  It is directly due to a very limited amount of people in power who want to seize control over all sectors of the American frontier.    

So what I ask of all informed people's of the world is this.  Please don't blame us for what is happening and what is surely to occur in the not to distant future.  We need help!  Please send humanitarian aid to our inner cities.  Please send international monitors to help stop the massive election fraud that has become the norm in this nation.  Please send an occupying force to invade Washington and allow the people the chance to be truly free.  Not with the implementation of a new government but with the abolishment of government entirely.  Please help us, we cannot fight this runaway government on our own.  They are too powerful.  We need the help of the international community to finally take back the power and hand it to those who deserve it, the people.  Once the American government is abolished we can focus on the rest of their puppets.  But without taking out the puppet masters any attempts to change the world will be nearly impossible.

This is a letter from inside the most insidious police state to ever exist.  Where the most people are held behind bars than any other nation on the planet.  Where average citizens are afraid day in and day out that they could be the next victim in an unjust drug war.  A place that has multiple major cities where gunshots can be expected nearly every night. We live in a constant war zone.  Not quite as hot or dangerous as some of the most dangerous nations on the planet, but that doesn't make it any less real.  What the youth of the world are learning, through Twitter, Occupations and ubiquitous Internet connections is that we are no longer living in a world where it is nation against nation.  We live in a world where it is the poor against the rich, where it is the young against the old.  We live in a world where the elite are trying to subdue us all and if we do not soon join forces for a global fight against tyranny, there may not be much left to fight for.

Sincerely,
An Average American Citizen

538 People Killed By Tasers in the last Decade

The argument that tasers are a less lethal form to subdue a criminal suspects is an absolute false assumption.  Info Wars reports on Truth Not Tasers and Electronic Village compiling a list of all taser related deaths since 2001.  Some of the most compelling tales are as follows:

“We further found that, when dealing with people with mental illness, PPB (Portland Police Bureau) officers use electronic control weapons, or tasers, in circumstances where the use of tasers was not justified, or deploy them more times than necessary. Finally, in situations where PPB officers arrest people with mental illness for low level offenses, we found that there is a pattern or practice of using more force than necessary in these circumstances.”

One such case involved an 11-year-old girl with autism, found wandering naked along a highway in Oregon. The child was obviously unarmed and a cab driver who’d stopped to help her said she was non-combative and calm. In fact, according to the cab driver, the girl was giggling.

The police officer who arrived on the scene ordered the girl to stop walking and when she refused he threatened to taze her.

The girl’s father appeared on Infowars with Jakari Jackson and said his daughter was unable to respond to the officer because she was autistic and had difficulty communicating.

Instead of waiting for assistance, the officer tasered the 11-year-old girl then slammed her head into the hood of his car.

The girl survived the attack, but other children with disabilities weren’t always as lucky.

17-year-old Derrick Jones died in 2009. Jones, who had been drinking at his own home, was tasered when he “moved rapidly” toward a police officer and made unkind comments. Unarmed 15-year-old Brett Elder was taken down with taser, even though he only weighed 140 pounds.

And 16-year old Robert Mitchell was probably the most horrific case. After being chased through a neighborhood and cornered by at least 6 police officers, an exhausted Mitchell – unarmed, 5′ 2” and 130 pounds, hands raised in surrender, was tazed – to death.

Tasering 11 year old girls, American cops are just as bad as any brutal dictatorship in the world.  But hey, they're just doing their jobs.
