Paramilitary police are a relatively recent state invention. They’ve metastasised into a domestic occupation force, enhancing government, institutionalising injustice, plundering with permission, Tasing with perversion, cloaked in full immunity, and not protecting people. Whatever you do, don’t call 911. As a mundane, your home is no longer your castle.
An RCMP Mountie in Kelowna BC got a sentencing deal which will leave him with a clean record after 40 hours of community service on an assault conviction for punching a pregnant woman in the face during a questionable warrantless home entry.

NO come on When I think of the police state umm I am thinking of horrible techniques laws being broken close to martial lawness happening. You have to separate that from thinking that all police officers are bad whcih there not. Okay I was at an event just this passed week and I talked to two officers and gave them a DVD on chemtrails. So there not all bad. Even though I don;t like when they dress up like strom troppers and try and intimidate senior citizens and mothers at a protest. I don;t like that. When I think off police state I think of the grid being putting in place and cameras everywhere.
Birk claimed that he had been "threatened" by Williams, a 50-year-old alcoholic woodcarver who was carrying two closed knives at the time of the incident. The autopsy, however, documented that Williams wasn't facing Birk when he was shot: The officer approached him from behind and to the right, and Williams was shot in the right side of his body from an estimated distance of about ten feet. A fifth shot that missed the target was never accounted for.

I support the police, but realize that whenever a crime is being committed, they are usually late. Good for you for helping our fellow humans.

I take it your from Cleveland? Have you seen how they have politized the lay offs here in Ohio? It's a crying shame, and they want to build casinos as well. Too funny.
On the news he saw trees strewn about lawns and streets. Then inspiration struck. He wanted to help. His schedule for Monday, May 23, was wide open. And, since he operates Custom Cut, a tree trimming business here, he figured his services could be put to good use.
“I thought it would be the perfect chance to help,” he said. “I knew there would be people needing help.”
He was right. By 10:30 a.m. Monday, he was signing paperwork with the Urban League to be a volunteer. He signed a waiver, hopped back into his truck and headed off to help out. The Urban Homeworks sent along a couple volunteers with him, too.
A volunteer from the Urban Homeworks, who had been with Haege since he signed up to volunteer that morning, did his best to convince the inspector that Haege wasn’t charging for his services.
Residents then came out of their doors in his defense, telling the inspector that he had just performed work at their house and hadn’t charged them a dime. Still, the defense fell on deaf ears.
The inspector told him to get out of the city, so Haege left with the volunteer. As they were on their way back to the volunteer area, residents waved down Haege, pleading for help. He pulled over and helped get a tree out of the way for them.
Haege had no idea police officers were behind him in a sort of unofficial escort out of town. He said they stopped traffic for about two hours while they figured out what to do with him. At one point, officers threatened to throw him in jail, he said.

That says it all right there.. I live in a rough neighbor hood and am more afraid of the cops than the gang bangers.. i have been pulled over 3 times in the past month for "Looking like a tweaker" as one very nice officer told me.. I'm scrawny, but no where close to tweaker status.. They think they can do anything they want, and honestly, they can..
