I stopped caring at the age of 25. I was pulled over for tail lights, and informed the officer I would be starting the academy next month as instructed by my recruiter. He allowed me out of the car to look at the tail lights, as he ran my plates. I was then at gun point shoved to the ground in a mud puddle, as my kids and wife began screaming and crying. The officer told me I had a gun under my jacket, with his gun on the back of my head. After I was cuffed, he yanked my jacket over my head and found my pocket knife, in a case, on my belt. He apologized while still shaking from all the excitement, and un-cuffed me. I was not ticketed, and apologized to again as i walked back to the car to leave,family still crying . So pardon me for not given a fuck if he cares or not, his contribution to society is so great he needed an image from Boston after the bombing instead of his own. The images I have from Boston after the bombing show the parts he did not wish to point out . More of the same that the hate is all about.
As you can see I can write some clever words on this subject as well. If you wish to change peoples minds blame the problem in the mirror. The public plays a part im sure, but to blame is to look for an excuse, or justification. So now Ill post your poem as well so the true root of your issue can be seen.
This is the image he chose to pair with his words . I added it more to ask 'Why a cop from Wisconsin would choose this image of another half way across the country instead of an image of his own noble acts??"
Today, I stopped caring about my fellow man. I stopped caring about my community, my neighbors, and those I serve.
I stopped caring today because a once noble profession has become despised, hated, distrusted, and mostly unwanted.
I stopped caring today because parents refuse to teach their kids right from wrong and blame us when they are caught breaking the law. I stopped caring today because parents tell their little kids to be good or “the police will take you away” embedding a fear from year-one. Moms hate us in their schools because we frighten them and remind them of the evil that lurks in the world. They would rather we stay unseen, but close by if needed, but readily available to “fix their kid”.
I stopped caring today because we work to keep our streets safe from mayhem in the form of reckless, drunk, high, or speeding drivers, only to be hated for it, yet hated even more because we didn't catch the drunk before he killed someone they may know. Never less, we are just another tool used by government to generate "revenue".
I stopped caring today because Liberals hate the police as we carry guns, scare kids, and take away their drugs. We always kill innocent people with unjust violence. We are called bullies for using a taser during a fight, but are condemned further for not first tasing the guy who pulls a gun on us. And if we do have to shoot, we are asked “why didn’t you just shoot the gun out of their hand?” And when one of us is killed by the countless attacks that do happen (but are rarely reported in the mainstream media) the haters say, "Its just part of the job".
I stopped caring today because Conservatives hate us as we are “the Government”. We try to take away their guns, freedoms, and liberty at every turn. We represent a “Police State” where “jackbooted-badge wearing thugs” randomly attack innocent people without cause or concern for constitutional rights. We are Waco, Ruby Ridge, and Rodney King all rolled into one lone police officer stopping to help change an old lady's tire.
I stopped caring today as no one wants us around, but instantly demands answers, results, arrests, when a crime takes place. If a crime isn't solved within the allocated 60 minutes it takes CSI on television, we are inept, incompetent, or covering something up. If we do get “lucky” it was just that and everyone with a Facebook account can post wonderful comments of how “they” would solve the case and how “we” and not nearly as clever.
I stopped caring today because a video of a cop six states away, from a department that you never heard of, screws up and forgets his oath of honor, thus firing up an internet lynch-mob of cop haters because “we all do the same things” even though 99% of us work twice as hard not to end up in the news and to still be “the good guys”. We are "militarized" because we wear body armor and kevlar helmets when shots are fired or rocks thrown at us and carry scary looking rifles even though everyone knows that they are easier to shoot and are more accurate than a handgun or a shotgun.
I stopped caring today because the culture of today’s instantly connected youth is only there to take and never give back. To never accept responsibility for ones actions, but to blame everyone else instead of themselves. To ask “what is in it for me?” versus “what can I do for you?” To idolize gangsters, thugs, sexual promiscuous behavoir, and criminals over hard work, dedication, and achievement. To argue that getting stoned should be a right, yet getting a job or an education is a hassle. To steal verus earn. To hate versus help.
Yes, I stopped caring today.
But tomorrow, I will put my uniform back on,.................... and I will care again.
In closing I would also like to remind you of another victim who was not shot. Kelly Thomas was handcuffed, then beaten to death by a group of police officers. Other officers stood by with medics and watched. So tell me LT. Furseth are those the good cops you speak of?
No parent should ever have to find their child in my blogs. That clearly is on law enforcement.
Last night the word came that the white house has now decided to get involved in police brutality. We need to look at this real close before we claim any victories on this . I don't feel I need to
remind people that politics and politicians are just that, and the track record of both is loaded with lies. We also need to question why now? It seems a little to convenient to say that voices have been heard. I personally believe this could be a way of saying the federal courts have no plans to get involved in the Mike Brown case. If Wilson is not charged in the courts justice is silenced, not given. Progress is nice, but is not justice. Lets look at the presidents offer given by Eric Holder & the
President last night. The numbers given 75 Million For 50k. cop cams. First off you would have to be stupid to believe it takes 75 mil. to buy 50k. cams. I looked at several web sites for cameras that officers use, and say are the best. The one that stood out on all the web sites, with an average of 5 stars, on all of the sites is the SC-DV1. The retail cost for a single purchase is $299.95. So lest do the math that's 15Mil. not 75Mil. Here we go with more of the forced purchase of a buddy's product that is not the best, and costs more than the ones voted best by those who know. The next best model is the VC-05MUVI-HD10-M, it retails for just under 400.00, and has a bad rating and half the battery life. It falls well short of the 75Mil. price tag as well. Feeling scammed yet ? Next is the promised 263 Million for training . This is not the gift it is being offered as . After the 1992 Riots centered around the Rodney King case, we had a "training fund" as well . President
Bush, pushed this as a way to "stop the violence" and teach officers on the streets, better ways to deal with arrests that could become violent. It later proved to be a funding package used to lighten the work load, and lower the cost of overtime. This Bill was also used to lower restrictions on what at the time was "illegal methods of gathering evidence and entrapment" . See the links below for more on this. This happened again under President Clinton in 1994, as the trial of officers involved in the Rodney King beating went on trial. Clinton pushed his bill as a way to "get more officers on the streets, and stop the violence in our communities" One has to wonder now if this was more of a curse, than help needed. I will not pick his bill apart, instead ill post the original press release below to be read . I hope this is an eye opener for some of the "Johnny come lately" crowd thinking we have scored a victory. In politics wolves wear sheep's clothing we all know this. Today's stop the violence bill is more likely a pay check for those who worked the streets filled with protesters,and rioters. I hope I'm wrong on this, but history is on my side of the issue. Without strong well worded laws, this donation will not work. To stop police abuse,and brutality, those committing acts of violence behind a badge need to fear long prison sentences. Those behind the badge who witness these acts and do nothing? They need to be accountable to the point of prison in some cases, and a minimum of loss of employment, and black listed from employment in law enforcement for life. I'm leaving one last image of police violence at the end of this entry. It is the medical examiners report from Kelly Thomas. He was handcuffed and beat to death while indifferent cops, watched their comrades, beat him to death. Every cop,Medic,and Fire fighter who stood by and watched this happen, is as equally guilty of the crime as those who did the wet work. Change is good, but the best change is lasting change, not spare change .

Bush on crime http://www.nytimes.com/1991/04/19/us/bush-pushing-crime-bill-bends-again-on-gun-control.html
Best rated body cam. as voted by officers already using them. http://stuntcams.com/shop/hd-1080p-infrared-wide-angle-police-body-camera-p-789.html?osCsid=6b3c4332bb0eab65c7445a33b8708ffc
First let me start with a little on me, and my views if you don't already know them. I am a 44 year young white guy . I support Gun Owner rights, and am a life long gun owner, and hunter. I believe in responsible retail of guns, and gun related products. I believe that any retailer should be able to sell these items so long as they conduct themselves in accordance with the laws of the state the retail site is in. Privet sales from person to person should as well comply with those rules . I don't think we need a list of registered guns available for buglers to use in finding houses to break into and put more guns on the streets. I believe open and conceal carry is a right and needs no permit . This is yet another list for crooks use to find guns to steal and sell.
Now all that said lets talk retailer responsibility and how some retailers prove the anti-gun lobby right . I took my son to the Walmart located in Canal Winchester Ohio on black Friday. He has a prepaid cellphone from strait talk and wally world is the only retail location to buy airtime cards. I caught hell from friends in the protest crowd over this. The only purchase made was the phonecard needed so he could text his girlfriend.
I myself am known for supporting Mike Brown, and John Crawford for months now. My Support Tamir Rice is growing as well, and this trip to Walmart added fuel to my fire . Nationwide organizations put out the word to "blackout blackfriday at Walmart" for their choice to fund the D.wilson defense in his upcoming wrongful death case in the Brown killing. Union organizations joined the cause as well over wallly worlds proven track record of neglect for employees rights and low pay from our nations number one employer.
What I seen in this store was everything that is wrong with this store and its sales of gun related items. You would think If a man was killed, in one of your stores less than 70 miles away, for carrying an item picked up off of your shelf's you might want to pull the item for a while. This location put it on a
lower shelf. If a child was shot in a park, for playing with an airsoft pistol purchased at another Walmart 85 miles, away that one might need put away as well . This store had them on sale for under 15 bucks just two weeks latter. With child & gun related anger all over the country right here and
now at a peak this behavior is disturbing . I wish it ended with that, but this is Walmart. In an attempt to overfill the store with toys for blackfriday they filled the walk way full of baby dolls,action figures,and other toys that target small kids right past the outdoors department . On the end caps of the outdoors department more BB guns that look like big people guns. The massive display of buck-knives , axes, and machetes placed in the walkway next to the toys was a mind blower as well .
Me being who I am I took pictures. I tweeted those pics. and my phone went nuts. One of the employees who was working on her brown nosier badge seen me and called for a manager. I was followed to the checkout lines. If we as responsible gun owners do not call out this kind of lack in retail responsibility we are as guilty as the retailers.
Its clear with the placement that this is a target on child sales. Wally world has a team of retail brainiacs that design floor layouts and item placement . They call them floor plans and sheets get sent to all locations telling them where the items need to be placed for sales. What Idiot thought this was a good retail plan? Is this type of target sales what a retail giant should be doing? I played cowboys and Indians as a kid too but in those days the guns came from the toy department not the outdoors department. I can promise you that after this trip none of my Christmas purchases will come from any Walmart .
America is fed up with hearing how dangerous your job is . You make your own drama in this land most people know that . Its not the few criminals that you may confront in the course of your carrier that makes the job dangerous . Its you that makes it so . communities no longer trust you and consider you to be bullies and thugs . Your own actions made it so . You have lost the right to claim that you are the one good cop left . Good cops don't let bad cops act like criminals . Indifference is a disease and a plague on society . That is our opinion of the "Blue Shield Of Silence" you hide your dirty cohorts behind . The fact that we have to accept that police set the rules and enforce the rules you play by with no outside independent advisers is a mockery of justice . Entrapment and intimidation are your primary tools . At one time those tactics were not just frowned upon but illegal . You live far from the streets you patrol and convert to your own personal war zones . This damages our communities that at one time had the officers that patrolled as members of the community . The big push now is for wartime weaponry and combat uniforms . That will make the average citizen feel comfortable to speak with you I'm sure . Fix your problems before taking on new things or trying to fix others is some well known advise . Now let me offer you a few tips from the people to help.
Step one is always owning up to your problems . This can not happen in your office filth and corruption flows down from top . Your superiors have put guards in place to keep things quiet and relieve them of any blame . If you follow chain of command nothing gets fixed . You know this it was most likely what put you on the path of indifference . I would suggest you contact a member of the legal aid society in your general area or an activist lawyer . These guys can protect you and your job as you expose the dirty cops in your own department . No act of corruption or abuse is too small . Every single act leads to the next act and combined can make for a big issue . They will know the proper channels to file complaints with your states attorney generals office or if needed the proper federal offices . In most of these cases you may even be protected and able to remain anonymous . The hard part of that is keeping a straight face around those you expose till they can be removed from duty . This is step one its the big one and all the others will be made simple after its started . Others will come forward after one truly honest and good man steps up to start the show .
Step two quit making our streets out to be warzones . This one is easy but will carry the most weight with those you serve . Not every traffic stop is an excuse to pull a gun,tazer,of pepper spray .
Every car on the road is filled with people not perps. If you wish to be respected then you must show respect as well . This is all simple stuff we all learned as kids on the play ground . I had a lead foot in my younger days so yes I speak from experience in traffic stops . I remember the bad cops that stopped me I see their faces as if it was yesterday . The officers just doing a job in a proper manner I am happy to say I remember the stop not the man . Thats what a police encounter is about what the citizen did . If you make the stop about you you don't stop the person from
doing it again but you do insure that person will never aid you or your comrades .
Kill the combat dress on duty its not necessary . If you want to be a swat officer go join swat . If you applied and was rejected try harder or fix what prevented you from being successful . If you are just not swat material then dressing for the part and acting like a jerk is a sign that you are the exact problem I speak of . The dumbest thing ever in law enforcement was to allow the average cop to dress for combat . You proved all the critics right in a short period of time . You may not be the jerk but you know who he is and his behavior reflects on you . This guy needs to be put in check daily his actions can get you killed . Just ask Erick Frein we all know what happened the night he snapped . This dress is what created the modern day thug cop . I dont care if you want to rock boots instead of shoes . You might even want slacks or a golf shirt all are options . Just mix it up a bit if you dress for war you encourage war . Ask some of your fellow officers from department that still require traditional uniforms the public respects them just a little more .
My negative opinions of law enforcement is not just a fad . I am not just jumping on a bandwagon for a quick trip to the next distraction . As I mentioned above have been stopped and detained more times than I can count . The funny part is I at one time wanted to be a cop . I took the test and nailed it and was on the list for the next class . Two days after I received the good news about the test my family and I were on our way home from dinner with the inlaws lights came on and I got pulled over . I gave my papers and ID to the cop and he informed me that I was stopped for no tail lights at all . I told him that I
had just checked them and was on the academy list and he said if I wanted I could look while he ran my info . I bent over and looked at the rear of the car the officer behind me now yells "don't move put your hands on the car do it do it now or ill blow your ass away " So I did and as I did I looked over my shoulder to see his gun about a foot from the side of my head . I asked " ok what the fuck did I do ? calm down i'm not doing anything what the fuck did I do ?" He informed me I had a concealed weapon that he seen as I bent around the car . I told him he was fuckin nuts and he grabs my belt and says I seen your holster while he yanks my coat over my head to expose my lock back pocket knife in a leather case attached to my belt . He say "Oh dear im sorry I thought it was a gun" I said nothing as I came up off of the car . He gave me back all my papers and apologise three more times . I just asked if we were done ? He said yes and I turned and got into my car and left without another word . My wife was still shaking the kids crying we did not speak the rest of the way home . The first thing I did after walking in the door is call the number for the recruiting officer assigned as my contact . Late saturday night I left a message to remove me from the list and not to call me back . He called monday anyway and asked why I sounded angry and what had happened that I no longer wanted to go to the academy ? I told him what had happened and the guy tried to justify it and explain that that was why they needed guys like me . He kept my name on the list and left six or seven messages that I never replied to . My opinion was permanently changed and remains so today.
Its not my responsibility to change my opinion of cops . It is the duty of all cop to make sure this kind of stuff stops happening . You cant be the great protector and the mass killers responsible for the deaths of an unarmed citizen every twenty eight hours . The only persons who can change those numbers are you .
I know that most of America considers the story of Mike Brown and Darren Wilson to be a case of a black thug who attacked a cop and got killed . That is how the story was spun in the news as most of America learned of it . The problem is that we have all forgot that national media serves government first society second and the people third . We don't remember the little known fact that if a news agency refuses to cooperate in the system they get left behind on the next story . Most of America never seen the pictures and images of officer Wilson after the shooting still standing in the street giving his accounting of the events . What we do remember is all the feelers played out on the national networks . We remember the video of an alleged robbery of a convenience store . Little remember or have seen the full footage that appears to show Brown paying for the Items he was accused of stealing . We don't remember or know that the clerk at the store reversed himself and said he was not sure if he was robbed . We do remember the images of the store being looted and burnt to the ground. We see the images of the police standing their ground and preventing a riot . We don't see the signs two blocks away informing the crowd where the approved assembly area is . We see the footage captured by news crews all lined up in a McDonald's parking lot . We don't see the same reporters being shot with teargas and rubber bullets for filming in the wrong direction or out of the approved area . We see an angry mob yelling and throwing water bottles at helpless police officers . We don't see activists three blocks away working with the community on legislation . We never hear about the church that feeds and provides first aid to protesters and reporters injured by the police . We hear how the KKK says they are willing to come in and clean it all up . We also hear that the Black Panthers have threatened every white person in the area if the verdict is bad. We don't hear about the Blacks,Whites,Indians,and Latinos Busting their asses to hold it together to prevent the race war that the government wants . We are just now learning about the troops massing at sites all over the state . The state has also held all of its law enforcement agencies on alert for weeks now . Federal agencies including the FBI,NSA,FEMA, and Homeland Security Have all dispatched large and well armed teams . New offices for all agencies have popped up all over St.Louis . The story of ammunition and equipment has been leaked by whistleblowers and hackers . You won't hear about that on the news because it would only prove the dark secret of whats really going on in Ferguson .
We have all seen the ramp up to convert our nation into a police state . If you can not acknowledge the information above and the push to militarize every police force in America , Then I suggest you quit reading this now and go play a cat video on youtube . This is the first piece in the puzzle a reason and a way to finally get it done . This has been the goal since NDAA was originally penned . This is the excuse to end the posse comitatus . The agency Homeland Security and the TSA where both created to bridge the gap from Military to law enforcement . So to be blunt the right tools have been brought to the right place and they just need anyone to pick a fight . The next piece is what is missing now from the war chest they always have had to fall back on . Its Race and sexual orientation plain and simple . The Millennium generation that now exceeds baby boomers in numbers took this away from government . Millenniums just don't care about race the way past generations did . Being Gay,Bi,or Trans is all good and go get married if you want . They freely date and marry regardless of skin color or religion . The government has reports on the numbers and cross dating as well as LGBT stats that confirm this so get over it and go google it if you dont want to take my word for it . This makes for a big propaganda mess how can the old divide and conquer trick work if no one buys it . This is why the race card is being thrown with every story . Both sides are equally to blame because both sides keep buying into it . This has been the best population manipulation tool for most of our nation short life . It is the one wedge that could always be used and counted on . If you remove this Unity will happen and the population will no longer fall for the two part lie that keeps us in check .
Now that I have set the stage i'll tell you what we will lose . If Darren Wilson is not charged and a big confrontation takes place this nation will feel the ripple from coast to coast. The first thing we lose is the Civil Rights that Thousands if not Millions have already died for . I fear it will spawn racial killing from coast to coast . Im not saying on a grand scale but both side have Ignorant people looking for any reason . Any unity could be crushed in a heart beat . Those of us who speak of peace and unity will get it from both sides . Life long friends will have a hard time looking eachother in the eye for a while . The trust built over decades will be broken and the average American will fall for it from the sofa while watching the nightly news . The next thing we will loose is our Freedom . A curfew will be placed in most if not every city . All the new Military equipment given to police departments comes out and will be used on us .
Did you honestly believe that all this "surplus equipment" was brought back from war zones overseas ? Did you not see all the stories about all equipment we left behind to avoid shipping costs ? Just a month ago we all seen the story about ISIS grabbing the massive stores of equipment left behind in Iraq . The numbers just don't add up unless you believe we had five MRAPs for every soldier ? Am I the only person who remembers that the troops never had all the gear needed ?
This story has been building for a few years now . It has been well planned equipped and tested in other national tragedies . We seen the failed gun grab just after sandy hook . Funny that story just came back into the news today . Then we seen the test for lockdown and sweep house to house in Boston . That story as well just recently in the new ??? All they need is to pick a fight I think this is the fight . The thing is will we fall for it ? Will we as Americans see it just as it happens and snuff it as fast as it starts ? Do we as Americans still have the ability to see past skin color and spot the true threat ? I know I do and pray the rest of you reading this can as well .
Both sides have begun to communicate on expected behavior of the other group. This issue has now escalated to the point of almost war as both sides rally troops and people to the cause . This is the moment in history that civil rights community is in a fever pitch over . In the next few days the small town of Ferguson will decide the fate of the civil rights movement in America .
That in mind lets take a second and recap just the absolute facts of what started this . Mike Brown and friends where walking in the middle of a residential street in Ferguson . No traffic and no one was directly being harmed by the jaywalking . Darren Wilson drove up behind the group in his patrol vehicle and told them all to get out of the road and on the sidewalk . Wilson began to drive away as the group headed to the sidewalk . Mike Brown stepped back into the street like most cocky young men just for a giggle and a little spite . Daren Wilson seeing this in his rear view puts his suv in reverse and backs up . This is when the confrontation begins and Mike Brown gets Killed .
Lots of speculation starts at this point . Did Brown grab Wilson's gun from inside the vehicle on the right side of his belt ? Was it necessary to empty the clip on him to stop this action if it happened ? Witnesses say Brown was on the ground with his hands up when shot ? The known facts given by Wilson at the time immediately after the shoot collaborate this . Rumors over a convenience store robbery came out a couple days after the killing fueling pro police support . No mention of the robbery was made in any of the original reports and had no basis on the jaywalking stop by Wilson .
This story has grown and suffered at the hands of big media . It has been spun as a race issue by hate groups from both sides . The simple facts in this story is a man was shot for jaywalking and not respecting an order by a police officer to stay out of the road . Had Wilson not put his car in reverse over Browns actions of stepping back in the road none of this would have happened .
So here are the rules as spelled out by both sides . First the protesters comity
response Missouri police have released 9 point set of rules for protesters
1. The first priority will be for protesters to remember “don’t break the law”
2. Protest leaders will communicate to all protesters the need for non-violence. Leaders will accept responsibility for any acts of violence any protesters engage in.
3. Protesters shall give police a 48 hour notice if they plan to have looting as part of protest operations.
4. Protesters shall give the public advanced information as to the locations of riots and looting so average citizens can be safe and avoid potential violence.
5. Every attempt should be made by protest leadership to communicate with known trouble makers they are not part of the peaceful protest movement and not welcome to come.
6. Clear standards of professionalism and sound community friendly protesting will be maintained and adhered to at all times by protesters.
7. Police will wear whatever attire they need to feel safe.
8. If peaceful protests turn violent the protesters shall expect tear gas and rubber bullets to be used, so keep it peaceful… the decision to use this equipment will be made based on your actions, thus you are making the decision to be gassed
9. Protesters acknowledge that even so called “minor attacks on police” (i.e. throwing water bottles at police) are still physical attacks. Expect all attacks on police to be addressed, please see point #8 above.
Leaks coming from inside the Missouri state police of an assembly area being constructed and equipped . The leak unidentified drops a bombshell in the Ferguson matter . A flood of manpower from DHS,FBI,Army Reserves,State Police,and the National Guard . The reason the leak gives is a decision in the case against Daren Wilson the officer who shot Mike Brown .
This case is being handled by law enforcement so the answer will be the same as in most cases . The unrest that is still happening in the small town of Ferguson is expected to tip the scales on rioting after the announcement . The Governor has used his time wisely to assemble manpower and equipment . The announcement is expected as soon as today 10/22/2014 . If I had to make a guess this announcement will come at the end of the business day as curfews will be implemented .
This confirms my long time suspicions that we have made a turn in our nation and have become a Police State . By activating DHS (Department of Homeland Security) control of the situation is now rendered to a federal office . DHS plays by rules laid out in the Patriot Act and already has permission to use Military force and troops on the population . This will set a precedent in how to deal with civil unrest as well as organizations like Militias,Political movements,Anti Government , Motorcycle Clubs,And even Churches . These organizations all share classification so one is the same as the other in the eyes of our federal government . This is no joke go look it up . The parts you may have missed that ties this all together is the review conducted by law enforcement . Just as in a criminal case reviews push the lines on standard procedure . The decision of a legitimate kill of a man with his hands up unarmed and on his knees is a big one . Not only because a man was shot but how they will now be able to act when a citizen refuses an unjust order.
If this turns into a door to door search like we seen in Boston after the bombing . The security of private Residents,Clubs,Halls,and Churches will as well become part of search without warrant . They can and will just walk in the same way they did in Boston . Use of federal officers and the military will prove the trump on Posse Comitatus . Detainment by association will be in acted and could be indefinite . Those who traveled from other states could be held under domestic terror laws with intent . Family and friends back home will also be subject to search . Dont believe me ? Ask the people in northeast Pennsylvania where they have hunted a cop killer for over a month now . All of this will be clarified as law of the land . Do you see how this is becoming a problem for all of us ? If you don't think this can or will happen then you have too much faith in the wrong people . This a federal office that employs thousands of people just to research how to advance its power . These people have all the paperwork and the power to use it . This problem was spun using race to prevent some outrage . It worked and will soon cost us I'm sure . They got us with our pants down on this .
I take a ton of crap over some of the stuff I post . Time is on my side but the sting of a long term friend becoming an enemy is still bitter . Remember what we learn the rouge lone believer and activist might just be the man you need some day . Today's ISIS, and Ebola become tomorrow's what happened to that story . Distraction is just that its the same as slide of hand in a magic trick . If you watch the stories fade as the fad gets old you will see the next one coming . The trick is to see whats happening that needs covered up or pushed aside to advance a plan ..
If you look at news any given night you can see the reflections of the Roman Empire reflecting in our times . The signs are all there and the trumpets have began to play . Have we as a society forgotten the lessons of our past ? Have we allowed our problems to go on unchecked for two long to fix things ? Rome had a brilliant military and used it to police the known world . For generations no legion entered Rome to protect society from milatarianism . They knew the lesson we are now learning about a militarized police force . It led to the decay of community then as it is in our nation now . Rome had an enormous homeless problem and a starving population . We only need to look at the foreclosure listings and laws being passed to prevent public sleeping to see the first half of this issue . The second half is evident in the amounts of working poor and jobless in this country .
Our nation's number one retailer and employer operated by the richest family in the land Walmart . They provide information and assistance filling out paperwork for public assistance with food, cost of living and health coverage for its employees . This is a fancy way of saying the richest people in the land have found a way to receive benefits set aside for the poorest . The funniest part of that problem is that most Americans concern themselves with the benefits the poorest receive and pay no mind to corporations and the rich leaching from the top . The Roman hierarchy call the working poor slaves . We divide ourselves along religious lines in the only nation in the world founded on religious freedom . The Romans had this same problem with those darn Christian back in the day . Attacks on the christian faith forced it into an underground movement that conquered the world . After the integration of the Christian faith into Roman society politicians found a new weapon in organized religion . All religion is control of the faithful . It was and still is used as a business to collect funds to advance the faith . Money collected is not just used to support the faith and the needy . In the times of Rome and now its used to advance the politics of the Church as well . Entire legions and political factions were funded by the Roman Catholic church . This was done in return of granting the church authority over those who would be kings in conquered lands . Today we make war on those of other faith as an excuse to control global trade on oil based products . This can be seen in our efforts of funding Rebels to later call them terrorists and religious extremist and destroy them to establish order . This practice has kept us fighting wars for a couple of decades . Rumors of false flags and inside jobs eventually become
knowledge to those who search for the answers . In Rome they had the cryers and notice posters to spread propaganda . Slow but effective they kept the population interested by claiming the advancement of the empire. Today we use television and social media to do the same work in less time . The similarities in our societies provide grim outlook into our future if the path is not corrected . If you compare on time lines setting the pinnacle of our society at the industrial revolution, and the known height of Roman culture and expansion the decay matches . The overlapping corruption in our two party system is as destructive now as it was in the times of Romulus . Just as our Emperor Obama he was plagued with ridicule and mockery with little ability to override the Senate . We sit at the ledge and blame the man with both hands tied behind his back by the bureaucrats . Half a nation cries he is doing nothing while the other half cries what do you expect ? Did we all forget what a lame duck is ? Our civil liberties are being slowly stolen away every political pay off . Our leaders concern themselves with the preservation and advancement of those who placed them in office . We fall for the distractions provided by Propagandist . We
squabble over guns, religion, and race just as planned . We stay divided by our own stupidity . Forsaking lessons learned playing dodge ball as kids not remembering those united with numbers always win . This was the message of the Occupy Movement we ignored to avoid looking like hippies . We need to unite in that manner if we plan to stop the destruction of our Rome . I dont think its necessary but ill remind everyone anyway . After Rome we as a species fell into the Dark Ages .
To show you just one of the numerous examples of how social media and cable television control society i'm writing this post . First things first a brief explanation of what you will soon learn . Every cable modem and cable receiver in this Nation is on a grid and connected . Not just to provide programing and services but to collect data as well . Back in the day an extra box to collect data was needed and families that agreed to having the data devices actually got paid for taking part and have cable and internet bills paid . They were known as Nielsen Families . Now the data is collected and sold without your approval or consent .
Today this service in known as ADD CHOICE . This is targeted marketing at its finest and you can not escape it . It records data everytime you change the channel on your tv or browse online . Its linked to every browser and pays for spots on all social websites . If you look at the ads on this blog you will see their fingerprints right on the adds . As they collect data from you on what you watch on the tube and browse online not only can they tailor advertising to you but page and site suggestions as well . You don't believe facebook is letting you know that five of your friends like a page called "save Merica from foreign invaders" out of patriotic duty do you ? It is being shown to you based on your tv choices,memes you like and repost as well as pages you browse .
On your own friends list you can see this trick as well . If you spend a night chatting with a friend you have not spoken to in a couple years he now covers you news feeds . If you stalk a person facebook will help you in the same way . Facebook even allows followers without your consent to see what you post and all they need for access is one friend in common . This can be fixed in settings but it's unclear just how reliable blocking followers is . I have blocked add choice at every turn but its only temporary . With change in name or spelling they quickly regain access about every 3 months . As they are part of the basic framework of the web and cable programing you will never get away from their all seeing eye . This is how data is collected to let them know shows like Sons of Anarchy have outlived its audience and ice bucket challenges are being done in every back yard .
So where is the proof I offer to demonstrate this ? How can you see this payed out right in front of your own eyes . Here is the simplest way to see it happen in under an hour . First log into your facebook and spend a few seconds looking at the adds in the side bars . This works on other sites as well but may take a bit longer for the data to collect . Now open another tab with your facebook still open . Go to your browsers shopping area or amazon ebay any will work . Now browse for things you have no interest in at all . For guys choose things for women like makeup and other feminine products . Females you choose thing that guys would go for like sports jerseys and auto parts . Stat there for about a half an hour and just have fun with it . Now close both tabs and exit out of your browser . Wait about five to ten minuets and reopen your facebook . Have a look at what has happened to your adds and suggested pages . Television collection takes a longer period of time and I don't recommend anyone should spend a day watching programing for the opposite sex but if you do it will make it to your social feeds if you have your profiles and pages open .
Welcome to a new world of knowing what to look for as you are used against yourself . With this knowledge you should quickly be able to spot the tricks being used against yourself . This is why we all need to be a little careful in buying what is sold to us on social media and nightly news. They know what to market to you to influence everything from what you buy to your beliefs . You may say i'm just a paranoid fool . My question is who is the fool being manipulated by those who know just how to buy and sell your entire life as they can see your every move right threw the glass ?
This post needed an edit in title so I gave it that . The issue of police killings should never boil down to one man or race. The faces and names contained are all Martyrs in this fight . They all deserve the same response that some cases Mike Brown, John Crawford, Kelly Thomas all received . Brief bios. give you all the tools needed to google the facts . The most important fact contained in this blog is how out of control our police have become . I do not post stories of those who are shot while brandishing weapons, or directly confronted while committing a crime . Its not that they are less deserving of life . This entry is for the Unarmed victims Of police killings . Kids with BB guns do make the cut . Anyone with little gun experience can spot the difference, and cops claim to be trained professionals .
Parts of this entry come from other blogs and news posts . I don't give credit as its also public record
Mathew McCloskey,10,Killed by an officer who was allegedly responding to a call and traveling at an excessive speed with no lights or sirens. His two friends walking with him said they never seen the car and it came out of no where. It is far to convenient to excuse this death as an officer on a call.

purposeful act” was involved. ????

Tamir Rice 12 This one has video that leaves more questions than support for officers involved. First this looks like a kid playing . Another child leaving the recreation center passes by not fearing for his life. The person who called reported it was a air soft gun . The video is from a security camera that was clearly being monitored . Security cameras do not follow people unless controlled . The officer was close enough to touch him and was on the scene less than three seconds before shooting . No coward cop could have passably taken even half of the steps needed to make this a justifiable kill of a suspect with intent to harm . Never mind the part about this being a kid and he was provably in fear of his own life after two cops pulled up next to him in a car well off the road and began yelling orders at him .

The video was manipulated by the police so most of the audio is missing. When the officers are in the hallway where the sound quality is the best they prove that they have learned to whisper and use hand signs to remind others to do so as well .

These are just a few of the thousands of examples out there . If these don't convince you that we as Americans have a problem then its you not I that is blinded by hate . This is not a racial thing this is a civil rights issue we as Americans are losing . Keep that in mind before you explain to me about one dead black man you score card is a little short .
I stopped caring at the age of 25. I was pulled over for tail lights, and informed the officer I would be starting the academy next month as instructed by my recruiter. He allowed me out of the car to look at the tail lights, as he ran my plates. I was then at gun point shoved to the ground in a mud puddle, as my kids and wife began screaming and crying. The officer told me I had a gun under my jacket, with his gun on the back of my head. After I was cuffed, he yanked my jacket over my head and found my pocket knife, in a case, on my belt. He apologized while still shaking from all the excitement, and un-cuffed me. I was not ticketed, and apologized to again as i walked back to the car to leave,family still crying . So pardon me for not given a fuck if he cares or not, his contribution to society is so great he needed an image from Boston after the bombing instead of his own. The images I have from Boston after the bombing show the parts he did not wish to point out . More of the same that the hate is all about.
