I mean wow. Seriously? I’m at a loss of where to start on this quote from Rep Henry Waxman……
Why would you be nervous about people protecting their rights with weapons unless you were one of the people trying to take away those rights?
If people are arming themselves to defend they’re rights from the government (which they should be) shouldn’t Rep Waxman and his fellow Congressmen question how well they’re carrying out their sworn duty to uphold and defend the Constitution?
What about the militarized local and federal law enforcement? That makes me pretty nervous and I’m a law abiding citizen. Anyone who reads Reddit.com knows these guys accidentally kill, assault, taser, or otherwise harm people daily, not to mention all the people they frame and falsely arrest.
I’m going to cut the buffer out of this article and give you the really juicy stuff:
In a video, Beeland is seen backing away and avoiding Wright, then crumpling to the ground after being hit with the Taser.
Wright was not disciplined, and police Chief Mike Chitwood defended her actions. Beeland was refusing an officer’s orders, and using a Taser avoided use of other weapons, he said.
Backing away. Not running, not attacking, just backing away in fear of the police officer. And what “other weapons” do police use on people that haven’t done anything and wrong and are backing away?
Police verified Beeland, 35, was using her own credit card, but she was arrested on two misdemeanors, disorderly conduct and resisting a police officer without violence. She has since pleaded not guilty, and state prosecutors are reviewing whether to pursue the case.
And police should never check first to see if someone was doing something wrong before ordering them around and tasering them. And resisting with out force? Are you fucking kidding me? And what reason does this person have to comply with the police in the first place? She wasn’t doing anything wrong. And the prosecutor needs time to review this case? Shouldn’t they be filing assault charges against the officer?
Fox News interviewed Daytona Police Chief Mike Chitwood, who defended his officer’s actions, but said that the incident was being investigated. He also admitted the woman never threatened the police officer, but the “force continuum” allows for stunning if “their actions force the officer to use physical maneuvers to establish control.”
She never threatened the officer but he may have had to use “physical maneuvers” (whatever the fuck that means) so instead he just tased her.
Chitwood said that the woman wasn’t complying to demands from an officer and called it “passive physical resistance.”
Not complying with demands? Why should she? She was talking on her phone minding her own business. And what kind of Orwellian mind fuck is “passive physical resistance”?? Seriously?
In case you didn’t hear a bunch of cops at a John Kerry Speech at the University of Florida didn’t like Andrew Meyer’s question, and decided they were going to arrest him. In America, cops aren’t allowed to arrest you for what you say in an open forum, especially a political forum like this. I mean come on, John Kerry is a Senator, which means he works for all of us, and if we need to ask one of our employees a question they can’t be having the police arrest us.
In their attempt to detain Andrew a group of officers tackled him to the floor, and then had another officer electrocute him with a taser repeatedly.
So, now that everyone that wasn’t pissed is, lets move on.
Since this story broke I’ve had about 15,000 people visit my site, with over 550 comments, almost all of which are truly outraged Americans. That’s one comment for every 26 visitors. Looking at other posts with a lot of comments it doesn’t get anywhere close to that high a percentage of readers that were so mad that they had to say something about it.
Now my site is just one little blog. This story is everywhere. Think about how many people are outraged over what’s happened here. All through history real change has been the result of of these kinds of events, when the people are so mad about the way things are going they stand up and say enough is enough, I’m not going to take it anymore.
Well, if you can’t take it anymore, then stop. Don’t take it. Stand up for yourself. Stand up for others.
You will always live with the exact amount of tyranny you will submit to.
