billcoe Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Unfriggan unbelievable, it's that damn Obama with teh hope and change I bet. "You need to understand that when you are talking about the police that it's really just the bad apples who give the other 5% a bad name"...LOL! .... [video:youtube] How about this one? Could be worse, police took 6- 9 seconds from the time that they knocked on this guys door and woke up the family to the onslaught that killed the homeowner with 60 shots. You ever wake up in 6 seconds? Me either. He had grabbed his rifle, yet the safety was still on. http://www.kgun9.com/story/14736691/raw-video-pcsd-helmet-cam-clip-shows-swat-raid-and-firefight They let him bleed out for an hour (60 shots in his body) Then they hauled the widow downtown and in her exhausted and emotionally drained state after seeing her husband die and he child taken away by the "authorities", proceeded to interrogate her and tried to get her on tape saying anything that would mitigate the murder of her husband by the police. She didn't know that they were police. Then they started lying and making up shit after the fact and got caught in the lies. Welcome to AmeriKa.... Fucking fuckers who murdered that man should be in jail, badges or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimmo Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 The only reason there isnt more of a police stat is so few are acting out against it do you personally feel entirely disempowered/disenfranchised by the condition of our current institutionalism? i felt more akin to the sentiment of your post during WTO in seattle, perhaps simply because tear gas up the nose tends to create a visceral understanding of state power (not an intellectual one).

tvashtarkatena Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Any cop will tell you that they prefer to deal with a fully armed population...so much more polite. Guns really reduce the possibility of misunderstanding, making for a much calmer exchange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvashtarkatena Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 People who are really into guns have also been proven by studies to be more stable, responsible, reasonable, and calm than the general population. Anyone who's known a guy who sleeps with an AK under the mattress and a Glock under the pillow invariably wishes that the rest of the population could be so together.

tvashtarkatena Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Guns can be good, clean fun. They beat spears for hunting, although the former seems more sporting. When a gun owner wraps himself in hero fantasies, though, that's where the fun, and sanity, ends. Such fantasies usually come with a whole bushel of canned popular wisdom, catchy phrases, mangled historical analogies, made up or misinterpreted 'study results' - all just good old fashioned bullshit, and all easily debunked within about a minute. Why? Hey, guns are a big business; one with plenty of good old fashioned, God and Country marketing to keep its customers laying down their credit cards. A lot of industries have tried to wrap themselves in the flag - "Like a rock!", American Insurance, Pepsi's choice of colors, but none has been as remotely successful as the gun industry in intertwining its business interests with 'Basic American Values '.

You gotta admit, rightwing nutjobs spouting white-male fantasies about being the "last line of defense against tyranny" is funny though. In an irony is dead kind of a way...
