2. Remind me never to go to Las Vegas
if the cops think that was responsible behavior on the part of those officers.

6. This is * America....and that is what we have to force our
Candidates to say and say again.....They have to push the fact that this country is torn and divided in so many ways that the only way to start trying to heal the country is to get rid of the Neocons....

Another Pathetic Display by a US cities PD....

7. hey Maddie!! and i do agree though when i mention anything along those lines...
as to our interactive environment having been 'enabled' toward such acts vis-a-vis * too many will point out chapter & verse as to how things have always been like this...

and while that is true on some levels, it is also true that the weak minded copycat what their leaders are sanctioning locally, regionally, nationally, worldwide = *'s amurika, land of the obscene war profiteers = :thumbsdown:

still, peace on'ya this day :hi:

9. You are absoultely right.....Americans as a whole have become
complacent....and accept without question the type of abuse witnessed in the video.

I now understand how Nazi Germany occurred, many say don't use the comparison...and I say why not....f the shoe fits.....

And yes War Profiteering is at the heart of this so called war on Terrorism...and the crimes committed in the name of national security....I hear jackboots in the distance...

And peace to you my friend!:hi:

8. Sue, sue, sue.
In the most recent "New Rules" Bill Maher asks, "When did the slogan change from 'To serve and protect' to 'What the fuck you lookin' at?'"

The cops are bully boys. The swagger around and pull rank. And if you dare question them--or even look as thoguh you question them--they feel justified in beating the crap out of you. That's the rage the soldier saw in that cop's eyes. The cop wanted to teach him who was boss. That's all this is. It's a cop beating down a citizen because the citizen didn't tug his forelock and bow and scrape sufficiently to satisfy the cop's overbearing ego.

We really are watching our country turn into a police state.

There have always been disadvantaged, disrespected groups who had to face this sort of brutal behavior from the cops, but now they are doing it even to what formerly would have been protected groups. Eventually, I think it will come to a head because of that simple fact.
