Two law enforcement agencies acknowledged Monday that officers patrolling Minneapolis during the height of recent protests knifed the tires of numerous vehicles parked and unoccupied in at least two locations in the midst of the unrest. Video and photo images posted on the news outlet Mother Jones show officers in military-style uniforms puncturing tires in the Kmart parking lot at Lake Street and Nicollet Avenue on May 30.

On June 8, two law enforcement agencies confirmed to the Star Tribune that they had punctured the tires: the Minnesota State Patrol and the Anoka County Sheriff’s Department.

It's hard to forget this incredible actress giving this scene depth, with her fantastic deliverance and veiled threat to destroy the religious cult of personality. It's the same as the world finally realizing the police cult of personality sham. They benefited from Andy Griffith and all the other wonderful small town police characters that are saints of protect and serve.
In reality, Minneapolis police have been murdering , instead, cutting out due process, of the citizens. So have too many other police departments. Camden New Jersey was so unbelievably corrupt (yeah, New Jersey, like that comes as any shock after that entire region was outed as corrupt by Serpico) that they were all fired, and the city of Camden started over hand picking new police who weren't part of the historic corruption.
By the way, for every reflexive bleat from old white people about looting and rioting (the only things news outlets will focus on as they aren't about to do investigative journalism on cops, no one would believe the corruption could be so pervasive) well, if you could use your brains for a moment, just a single moment, to realize there is no organized protest, there is no way of keeping the vast unknown number of people from being joined by people with bad intent, and frankly, undercover cops who pose as protesters, while fully going riot and mayhem on stores and banks, simply to cast the entire protest in shame. Yeah, it's called tactics, didn't you ever hear of Sun Tzu? Fucking hell, read a damn book, learn from the success of the powerful that will win at any cost
Anyway, I digressed into reality there for a moment. Back to the old white people bleating complaints - if you're so damn upset about uncontrolled protests with no all powerful leaders who would keep their tens of thousands of followers in control, you will now understand EXACTLY why protestors demand that the POLICE DEPT and MAYORS and CITY COUNCIL keep the police under control and prevent them from MURDERING George Flyod and Breonna Taylor, and hundreds of others each year. Yes, the hundreds that don't make the news.
So. Are we on the same playing field? Police who are in a gang, of thugs, completely knowing, understanding, and witnessing murder (Waco Massacre, for example) (George Floyd, just two weeks ago) by police who have a charter, a compact, an oath of office, a lot of leaders (shift supervisor, watch commander, police chief, police commissioner, Mayor, city council, governor, and the police union too, lets not forget those tools) to train, educate, and ensure compliance (police love compliance, from everyone not wearing a badge) to the limits of police procedure, and police policy) while that large amount of stricture to rules is on police, who instead use DEADLY FORCE and murder people - versus protesters with no leader, no written rules except the constitutional amendment, that is specifically, the right to peaceably assemble to petition the government for redress of grievances, and without any ability to prevent infiltrators from working under cloak of "protesting" to destroy the narrative and actions of peaceful protesters.
If you don't believe that police are doing that, may I remind you that they murder people, like George Floyd, on video, over the course of 9 minutes when any other cop could step the fuck up and be a professional with integrity and say, get off his neck, he's not in any way a threat or a risk to us dozens of police - he's in handcuffs. Put him in the back seat.
So, along with shooting rubber bullets the size of dildos into peoples faces to permanently blind, using batons to cripple, killing wantonly the asthmatic reporter (1st amendment right of the freedom of the press) Sarah Grossman in a peaceful protest who then died from the pepper spray and tear gas used by cops (seriously, it's all on video online, I don't even lie. You simply can't believe I'm going to post every damn video that proves everything I'm saying, either you're a EEG deflection capable person, or you've got rocks for brains) police murdered George Floyd and Breonna Taylor. I could list the guy in the back of the van they killed by driving erratically so he was bludgeoned to death by being tossed around inside the van, or the guy they shot in the back as he ran away, then planted a gun on his dead body, but nah, you're either understanding that I'm not making shit up, or you believe nothing I'm saying.
For the rest of you that just come here for the fun car stuff, pardon me for having a moment of frustrated rage that some people are brain dead, and trying to clarify for the pinheads that they simply have no brainwaves that can be induced to think with.
All because I learned today that the Minneapolis police, (who seriously need to be disbanded, de-unionzed, and replaced with R Lee Ermey types with integrity, character, and determination to be law abiding and professional while on the job) prove that they are imbecile bullies afraid of being held responsible for their actions recorded on video... slash dozens of tires, which if you can be reminded, is simple vandalism that the POLICE as supposed to ARREST people for NOT FUCKIN COMMIT THE FUCKING CRIME THEMSELVES
Now, back to our regularly scheduled amusement and entertainment as soon as I can make the time to go find some. This moment to explain reality took a damn hour, and now I need to get some lunch.
Thank you. You are not alone in your rage.
ReplyDeleteim in a unique position I guess.
ReplyDeleteI have a family member thats just retired from being a cop for 30 years.
I did a few ride alongs with him, over the years and he was a good cop.
I also have another family member who lives in a different state, who was harassed so much by the cops that he sued them and they offered a $$ settlement the night before his case went to the jury.
Ive also been harassed and hassled by cops.
they dont just hassle blacks, they hassle anyone and everyone. It just doesnt fir the narrative of the news programs to show stories about the white people that the cops kill.
Daniel Shaver is one example. he was executed by cops,(video on youtube) and zero news coverage.
Jonathan Ayres was shot in the back and killed in Georgia, by undercover cops,(the video is on youtube) who were on the same drug task force that also dropped the flash bang grenade into a baby bed, causing permanent damage to the baby, and those cops lied to get the no knock warrant.one got fired for lieing to get the warrant but Im sure they just got a job in a nearby town.
