How To Stop The Violence Against Police Officers

Want to know how to stop angry people from taking the law into their own hands against the violent, heavy handed police officers who have been recklessly shooting minorities, lately? Abolish qualified immunity for all police, and force them to obey the law. If pigs faced the same consequences for crime as the rest of the population, it is likely that they would not be as trigger-happy around minorities as they so often are; and if victims and other aggrieved parties had access to justice, there would be fewer people taking the law into their own hands.

Lawyer Speaks About Racism At McKinney Swimming Pool

While we are on the subject of resignations and untimely discharges from employment for reasons of racism, and unprofessional expressions thereof, here is what the lawyer who is representing Eric Casebolt's victim has to say on the subject. Hopefully, every racist in the United States, the Midwest, especially, will take note and modify his or her professional stance.

Amber Alert In Antioch Saves A Child

Here's a story about a creep who noticed a mom with a seven year old girl at a Walmart in Antioch, California. He tried to grab the little girl at Walmart, but was unsuccessful, so he followed the girl and her mom home. At that point, he did successfully grab the little girl, and an Amber Alert was issued. What isn't being clearly stated is what he told the little girl in order to gain her cooperation, and what he told the mom in order to threaten and intimidate. He told the little girl that he was from Child Protective Services, and told the mom he had authority to take her child because he was a social worker! Unfortunately, real social workers and cops often pull similar stunts on vulnerable victims who do not know their rights, and this is why the creep chose to pose as one. While the mom most likely was not convinced, all it takes, for a stranger abduction, is a moment's distraction on the part of a child who has not been taught to question authority. If someone claiming to work with Child Protective Services tells you they are taking your child anywhere; please, please, make them get a warrant. Don't ever let anyone into your home just because they either are a government official wanting to conduct a rampage of your property, or claim to be a government official wanting to conduct a rampage of your property. The Fourth Amendment guarantees you the right privacy in your own home. Use it, and teach your children to question authority and not to talk to strangers.

David Allen Douglas is now in custody, thanks to a young lady who didn't mind following the car that matched the description in the Amber Alert, and calling the cops when it parked. The little girl was found safe.

 

A Camera Is The Best Weapon

Cameras. Those darn things pop up everywhere, don't they? Yesterday's police used to be able to get away with presenting their side of any story, practically unchallenged, without question. Today, with the advent of inexpensive home security cameras switched on at random times, business surveillance, satellites, digital cameras of all grades and price ranges, and of course, those pesky cell phones, ever in the hands of nosy, trouble-making bystanders, lying with impunity has gotten more complicated! What's a cop to do? Especially when his own surveillance tells a different story than he tells? Even the Google cameras aren't always a policeman's friend!

This Chicago forty-seven year old woman, arrested for DWI when she fell asleep behind the wheel, got picked up and thrown into a cell, as you can plainly see in the video, by a cop about twice her size. He tried to accuse her of "resisting arrest", but the camera tells a different story. Hopefully, he will be "guided" by the same judicial system to choose a different career, as he has shown that he clearly has the potential to cost the taxpayers in Illinois much more than his salary.

That "resisting arrest" line was once a cop's free ticket to violence. In fact, not only cops, but many a person not desirous of just dealings, particularly in small towns, would use the old "she cussed at me", or "he lost his temper and got upset" routine in order to justify not doing the right thing, whatever that may have been, depending on circumstances. Yours truly recently received a bill for monies she did not owe, and upon contesting the bill, was told to "pay it anyways, because that's what everyone else does"! Yours truly had no intention of doing any such thing, and eventually got an attorney involved, but what do you suppose was said by the person to whom she presented the error? You probably guessed correctly: "she got angry and swore at me, boohoohoo.....my poor little ears have never heard such things, and my poor little innards are so offended!" The truth is, I never even raised my voice. I simply stated that the bill was incorrect, and told the person why it was incorrect. Because I was on speakerphone, others in my immediate surroundings heard the conversation and know exactly what I said, which is not what the Northeast Kansas woman at the other end of the phone wanted others to believe I said. She wanted the carte blanche to say I said other things, which I did not say; and to be believed, unquestioned, just because she is a white, Northeast Kansas, Christian thingamajigger who has always gotten her own way, even when grossly attempting to get over on others. Technology has taken away this carte blanche.

Getting those who are accustomed to misrepresenting the truth accustomed, instead, to the reality of cameras and other technology will be an interesting task during the twenty-first century.

 

Hey Siriunsun! I found the smart phone the cop thought was hidden forever!

 

 

Smart Dog!

That video is hysterically funny! But the savvy pet owner will take this a step further, and attach a small camera to his pet's collar! That way, the dog, hiding or not, can get his own footage of any police activity on private property, or anywhere, for that matter! It's a whole new concept in accountability of law enforcement! Streaming video from a camera on a pet's collar to a the cell phone, Ipad, or computer of a third party might actually take a sizeable chunk out of brutal attacks by police officers. The prosecutor in Marshall County, Kansas would have to scare and bully defense witnesses all by herself!

 

Maybe a day will dawn, during my lifetime, when law abiding citizens will not have a need to install their own checks and balances when dealing with law enforcement and the judicial system.

 

 

Once Again, Film And Record All Police Encounters

For some reason, ego-driven police officers do not seem to like citizens bearing cameras and cell phones. Especially if said citizens decide to film or record certain encounters with said police officers. It would seem logical to simply behave in a civil manner and use manners, good ones, when dealing with the public; but instead, many police officers would rather behave badly and unlawfully,
grabbing and destroying any cell phone or camera footage of their actions. They don't want the public to know about the children they deliberately endanger or the middle-aged moms and housewives they assault and batter when prosecutors need to intimidate entire communities.

The video above shows some police officers in Pennsylvania harassing a tenant because they wanted to serve an arrest warrant on her landlord, who had neglected to mow the lawn. Yes, you read that correctly; there was an arrest warrant for someone because he didn't mow the lawn! The tenant at the property got some footage of the cops who came to her door and harassed her, and the prosecutor actually defended them. It's too bad he is unaware of a recent case which originated in Kansas, and was eventually decided in favor of the defendant in the Supreme Court.........specifically, the only time the police can barge into someone's home or apartment uninvited without a warrant or probable cause is when an immediate danger presents itself, and an "immediate danger" is specifically defined as a weapon in the hand of the person who answers the door, not anywhere else inside the house.

Record and film all contact with law enforcement. Have your children do the same.

 

 

 

In Case You Weren't In Church This Sunday

 

If you were not in church this Sunday in northeast Kansas, perhaps you were outside drinking lemonade across the street! Five year old Jayden Sink, daughter of Jon Sink, of Freshcassette-Creative Compassion, decided to set up a lemonade stand at the Equality House, directly across the street from Westboro Baptist Church. She is donating the proceeds of her enterprise to Planting Peace, a group which promotes environmentalism and non-biased charity. The northeast Kansas Christians at Westboro Baptist Church called the cops on her. When they responded by buying lemonade, they cussed her out and harassed her, after the manner of other northeast Kansas Christians. She remained undaunted, though. The times, they are a'changin', Kansas!

 

Look who else missed church on Sunday!
