For those that are defending law enforcement in the Dorner case an update. The Sheriff states that his guys did not burn down the structure.
I call bullshit on that and it appears that some are finally waking up and asking some questions.
Look at the world as it is, not as you wish it to be. It will be more depressing but more realistic view of how things actually are. We call it normalcy bias. You expect everything to be as it should and it keeps people from seeing things as they are...it can get you killed--in politics, economics and on the street/battlefield.
Now to the video. Remember this statement. We're the "fill in the blank" we can do whatever we want...

the militarization of LE has been happening since the drug war was ramped up under Bush I. Along with it went the 4th amendment.
ReplyDeleteAnd the DoD sells excess gear to the local LEs for what reason? Serving warrants?
This was not local LEOs these were federal agents. Lets not forget that. We all see the Feds are out of control, but the congress will not keep them in check because it gives them even more power.
ReplyDeletedid you see this one?

this will have you spitting nail
This stuff goes as far back as Waco. Since 9/11, the militarization of our state has only grown.
ReplyDeleteA lot of fat people in that video. Anyways, I've been a fed agent for over 20 years and I never uttered the words, "federal raid" - pretty corny. I do understand the concern and I believe it is warranted, but just to set your minds at ease most of my fellow agents believe and think the same way you do. Course, what we do is pretty cut and dry - dope. I have for years carried a pocket size copy of the Constitution which I swore do defend and protect. Not all of us are stark raving loonies, but I will say that some agencies have a much different mind set and type of agent i.e. EPA, USDA OIG, FDA.
ReplyDeleteOh for fucks sake. It's a hoax. Do you believe EVERYTHING that fits you "Black Helicopter" narrative ? The only time Mountain Pure got into trouble with the law (local) was the recall of tainted water a few years back. Doesn't anybody research this shit anymore or do we just resort to linking it and passing it on.
