"We've Accepted The Militarization In Our Cops For A Longtime Now"

[Sorry4DoublePosting]

What a bunch of liberal hogwash.

That said, Rachel Madcow's male hormones sure do appear to be kicking in nicely.

I can almost see some peach fuzz on her upper lip in this video.

[DcEatsItsYoung]

@Sorry4DoublePosting

hogwash? typical response from someone who cant respond with rational arguments. it stands to reason that you cant argue given the fact that the videos are self evident...

[Zandersky]

where has he been living msn land not the real world it seems

[SuperRicecrackers]

its almost as if they're trying to incite bad things between groups

there was a GOP candidate who mentioned they were setting the stage for violence in this country and it seems the media from one side are cheerleading it by screaming police brutality, the rich are evil and other race politics.

[SoneGurke]

@SuperRicecrackers

of course they want to do that. it's a common tactic to disband protests and give them a bad public reputation

[SuperBenzid]

Its not black versus white. It's poor versus rich

[StudentOfObjectivism]

@SuperBenzid It's not poor versus rich. It's producers versus parasites.

Which side are you on?

[SuperBenzid]

@StudentOfObjectivism

Well I own my own business and in the mean time I am a heir to a reasonably large fortune. However I am generally with the people on this one. I have seen Marxism work and Capitalism fail with my own eyes. I actually feel traditional real Marxism is pretty close to your Randism. People only efficiently do what is in their own best interest and the economic system needs to reflect that. A system of economic slavery to politco-corporations is making society inefficient.

[BluesdesJours]

it was the tv show swat where they started to roll it out

Why do you have to say shit like that? Bring the race issue up, of course. We all have it bad. Shit.

[ron66hand]

It must cost the municipal governments some extra money to fund these overtime, extra hours police control. If this movement continues, the police will be sick and tired of the overtime. And the city budgets will be exhausted in due time. Now, when cold weather sets in, the youthful protestors will be able to hold out longer than the middle aged experienced cops. What else can you make of this?

[dodododa]

So they think if we move to Socialism the police will become LESS militant? The more government tries to control us, the more repressive the police need to be.

[SuperBenzid]

@dodododa

Socialism or Capitalism is not really linked to a police state. Iran has a capitalist market but is one of the most repressive places on earth. Norway is more socialist than Zimbabwe but Norway is significantly more free. 

[dodododa]

@SuperBenzid Norway doesn't have 100 million poor minorities to deal with. Socialism can be peaceful if you have a peaceful population. If you have a population like America's, the temptation is to rule with an iron fist.

@Gardensandcabins He's 32. I think that counts as "adult". Judge a book by its cover much?

That's the kind of thinking that got people to vote for George W... "I'd like to have a beer w/ that guy, he's a straight talker, and a real Amurkan!"

[762submoa]

That must be the proverbial “WE” because I believe we don’t need law enforcement officers, we people to punish evil doers not bust balls and collect revenue.

[halcyon0830]

You think the Fascist Neocons, the Corporations who own Government, the Top 1%, the Two Party Fascism, the Nazis, the Lizards, the Zionists, the Rothschilds, the Bilderbergers, the Rockefellers, the NWO, the Scam Artists, you think any of these Satanic Freaks who control America want to lose control over the Slaves, Sheeps and Debt Slaves that they control. Military, Banks, Media, Government, Cops etc are All Owned by them, and anyone who Protests will be Gassed, Shot and taken to USA FEMA Camps

[MrGOTAMA420]

@withholeyshoes i con cur

[uwmbigb]

Shes right, unfortunately this has been happen to me as a person of color for so long its hard to get up in arms for another citizen because its BEEN happening to me and mine without coverage and without rage for years. Hows that saying go, then they came for me and their was no one left to speak out for me?

[skedaddleMLS]

the police are the zookeepers

[jammustardj]

We vastly outnumber them. They will not fight us face to face. They will panic the masses and pretend to be our savior but they will shepherd us to slaughter. Do not fall for the Hegelian Dialect. Remember what makes humanity special. Celebrate our oneness. Accept our individuality. Do not be afraid. We have nothing to fear. We are the future. The imperial fear greed power ego materialism philosophy is dying and it's fighting to survive. But we win because harmony and balance in nature is key.

[cedrickstanleyjr]

@jammustardj Im just Impressed that you know about the Hegelian Dialect thought it was just me. lol (keep fighting )

@withholeyshoes thank god the oakland police dep is investigating this they should get to the bottom of this . they are after all very proffessional(i just threw up a little)

[IDontWantYourCereal]

occupy wall street is not he first ample of police brutality that white people have experienced, that lady seems cool but she seems to think that police were entirely kind to white people and not other races up until this point. police dont selectively brutalize people THAT often, does it happen? yes, but police brutality is not a racial matter, its a class matter, the police believe that they are "one up" on the importance scale so the really do not care who they treat like shit.

[MrCogicson1]

@IDontWantYourCereal Let's not undermine the real truth here. Right now, whites are beginning to experience on a larger scale what so many from the minority groups have always experienced non stop. I always say to my friends if we join together in the struggle against inequality for others then when we find ourselves faced with injustice and equality we can depend on the support of others. United is the only way we will truly stand against injustice and unfair treatment of any human being.

[greg357159]

The government authorities attacking the American people,So what else is new .?.Our government has murdered, raped, plundered,and is the father of all lies and deceptions since the beginning. LOL, no one was wise until the greedy got even more greedy.. it's funny that the 99% is so surprised ? They used the Calvary to murder millions of Indians stole their properties and then the Banks resold these properties to the DUMB AMERICAN SHEEPLE Maybe the sheeple will wake up finally. New leadership !

DEMOS is the NWO, don't believe me go here:  Government Front Group Vows to Abolish Critical Thinking

[Yankeeprepperasshat]

If you think this war hero being shot wasn't staged you're a retarded conspiracy theorist. If you can't see through this bullshit and see through the bad acting, and the guy calling "medic!" then you're a total sheep. This is designed to get the military onboard; The yell of "medic" is designed to pull at the strings of soldiers who have been in combat, and subliminally make out the pigs as being a combatant. I am NOT on the cops sides, but the cops aren't the enemy. the govt. is.

[Yankeeprepperasshat]

1.) the cops deny using rubber bullets, so either they have the balls to outright lie or one cops brought his own, or the cops didn't do it. (1/50 chance)

2.) the ONLY person to be shot by a rubber bullet happens to be shot in the head, the only potentially fatal spot on the body, and a relatively small target. (1/6 chance)

3.) the person that gets shot isn't a loser communist punk, but is infact a war hero (1/500 chance)

compiled odds are 1/6.6x10 to the 6th chance that it wasn't staged. think.

[btigtime2]

I remember in Baton Rouge reading three years ago reading about the equipment they were buying riot gear, beanbag guns, and Riot fences with Obama's funny money... Now I'm being to think this was all planned and prepared for.... Really not theory

[Churchx77]

@btigtime2 Ahahah wow you're a moron.

[btigtime2]

@Churchx77 Thanks that was so nice of you to point out... I am an American who is 40 years old.... so I have not been paying close enough attention to what is going on and let this get this bad without doing something about it.... So yes I guess I'm a moron... You?

[Churchx77]

@btigtime2 Police departements buying riot gear, HOW CURIOUS.

[btigtime2]

@Churchx77 Oh now I see your point(maybe) Cops buying gear should not put up flags. Cops sponsoring and supporting Gun control, completely normal. Cops/Crime ratios stay proportional despite department growth, no worries. NY cops getting stinger missiles and a intelligence gathering division, common. Police fee and fine divisions doubled, not bizarre Cameras going up, ordinary SWAT raids up 30% in the past year, move along yawn yawn. I'm such a moron, now I see, your being sarcastic.

[DonSolo52]

Is this host the MALE Rachel Maddow?

[Twostones00]

Second amendment. A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.

[Twostones00]

First amendment Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

[ReignbowSmite]

Read your second amendment Americans, read the WHOLE thing. It's not merely a right to own guns, it's in the context of an organized militia. It protects your right to overthrow a tyrannical government coup d'etat.

[ReignbowSmite]

@ReignbowSmite * addendum

Not that I'm suggesting people bring weapons to OWS, I don't condone violence except to defend ones own life.

[Churchx77]

@ReignbowSmite Sure you are, at least own up to it.

[Burnz2much]

@ReignbowSmite "Wait wait! Don't kill me yet, I am going home to get my gun so I can defend myself, be right back.." lol

[Twostones00]

The people are rallied into a unifying patriotic frenzy over the need to eliminate a perceived common threat or foe: racial , ethnic or religious minorities; liberals; communists; socialists, terrorists, etc.

[Twostones00]

The industrial and business aristocracy of a fascist nation often are the ones who put the government leaders into power, creating a mutually beneficial business/government relationship and power elite. No matter what crimes they do, the real CEO’s will not pay, just a few lower down VP’s.

[Twostones00]

Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights - Because of fear of enemies and the need for security, the people in fascist regimes are persuaded that human rights can be ignored in certain cases because of “need.” The people tend to look the other way or even approve of torture, summary executions, assassinations, long incarcerations of prisoners, etc.

[Twostones00]

Under fascist regimes, the police are given almost limitless power to enforce laws. The people are often willing to overlook police abuses and even forego civil liberties in the name of patriotism. There is often a national police force with virtually unlimited power in fascist nations.

[newjustice1]

anyone else hates this faggot host

[BigBagsForRent]

Love the reporter guy in the glasses. You can tell he has intergrity and real passion for the story.

[wlljon7]

The police action was uncalled for. The protesters were peaceful and unarmed and they were met by violence, which by the way seriously injured a decorated Marine and hero. Veterans didn't fight oppression overseas to have deal with this sort of thing at home. It will not be tolerated by patriotic fair minded Americans.

[JFAINTER88]

they didnt even help him after they shot him and saw him lying there. then flashbanged the kids who treid.

[JFAINTER88]

Who did that!??!??!?!?

Well no shit....and MMOORE is the "end capitalism, not the IMF-FED RESERVE"....RICH SHILL.

[nellyyllen1]

the police man did that on purpose . WHY look the police are 10 feet away and if you aim that high it would go about 50 to 70 feet away from where the people are he aimed for his head for is evil mind of what was going on.

[ralphryders]

TRUTH: PEOPLE ARE MORE LIKELY TO GET KILLED AND ASSAULTED BY COPS THAN TERRORISTS

[kastnmagic]

@ralphryders AMERICAN POLICE HAVE BECOME AMERICAN TERRORISTS!!

[MrGOTAMA420]

@ralphryders talking to a cop is 300 times more likely to result in injury or death than riding a motorcycle.

[MrCogicson1]

@ralphryders They better learn to fight back.

[MrCogicson1]

@ralphryders That's true.

[crackmonster99]

Why are we surprised? Nothing has changed since 1968. They just came up with a snappy slogan(to serve and protect) and put a smiley face on the cops. You're far more likely to get a ticket from them than to actually get any kind of help from them.

[TheAsfaloth]

[TheReaperMedic]

Here in Chicago, the occupiers have a small army of cops following their every move, yet my inlaws called 911 for a neighbor verbally assaulting them and threatening violence. The police response time was ten minutes. TEN F@#$%ING MINUTES FOR AN ASSAULT IN PROGRESS! THIS IS ALSO IN ONE OF THE NICER AREAS OF CHICAGO....UNBELIEVABLE. You think the police are here to protect you? HAH, in ten minutes, an assault can EASILY escalate to homicide...better be prepared to protect yourselves.

[gmako74]

Support The NRA, Gun Rights groups! They will try to disarm us all eventually, and we will be just like the people that suffered under Stalin, PolPot, Mao, etc. This country is slowly loosing our Constitutional Rights. Look at operation fast and furious, this was done so there would be a huge outcry on gun violence, but it was done on purpose by our own Government to strike blows at the 2nd Amendment, it blew up in there face, hopefully those involved Eric Holder, Napolitano get thrown in jail!

[syko52]

I'm totally in agreement about the need for change & revolution against this oppressive government... BUT, that being said, STOP MAKING THIS ABOUT YOUR RACE.

Every time one of you open your mouth & say something about it being "because of our race" or only happening in "minority areas", you alienate yourselves & prove your ignorance at the same time. The police beat, harass, arrest, & kill whites from suburbia too. STOP TRYING TO MAKE IT ABOUT YOUR RACE. They're shitty to everybody, ya racists.

[grandmachristine42]

@syko52 Yes, it happens to all of us. Occasionally it even happens to rich kids. But please believe this old white lady, it does happen MOSTLY according to how poor you are and/or how dark your skin is. The truth is in the numbers. Many whites feel very allied with black organizations, but to enjoy that the white person has to come off of both "we're # 1!" AND "it's all the same, not about race" and just admit that black Americans still pay muich heavier dues. It IS true.

[syko52]

@grandmachristine42 Things have changed during the last 15+ years, & I've dealt with them personally during these. I've been arrested & held for weeks, while completely innocent, harassed ,& assaulted by them 3x, & these cops were black, white, & hispanic. I live in Texas & if you think for one minute of your day that these cops don't beat the white kids just like they beat the black kids, you're just dead wrong. The cops here don't give a damn if you're purple. They'll fuck you up just the same

[nbkbauer]

Frankly I find these people quite hypocritical. Progressive's hate the police state but love the government...talk about not getting it. For them It's only grievous if it is against your issue. I'm willing to bet you that none of these people would bat an eye at police militarism being used to steal money form people who haven't paid enough taxes. They need the police to enforce their progressive ideals.

[mersk100]

They need to be thugs, or as Joe Biden says, the boogie man will come out and eat us all.

[1971SuperLead]

Coward cops throwing tear gas at harmless women seeking to give medical aid. I wonder if that cop would throw tear gas at his mom.

[yesgyes]

the police do not serve and protect they bully and brutalize. they beleive we are impresed with their uniforms ribbons and bows when the reallity is that we despise them..the hatred has grown over the years..politicians beware people have had enough of it, it could very well reach the tipping point and you will be finished. you will have to live in your bunkers for a long long time. it is no wonder cops have the hightest suicide rate

ready the torches and pitchforks, sharpen the guillotine...

[InCMPunkWeTrust]

When u have millions of black people living in ur country a police state is mandatory.

[thundavolt]

@InCMPunkWeTrust "Ur" lol it's not ever their country so that's some BS logic right there.

[InCMPunkWeTrust]

@thundavolt of course it is our country. our ancestors were the pioneers who conquered north America. unfortunately the actions of slave descendants will force us to go back to some form of Jim Crow because a tiny minority of the population is responsible for almost 100% of the violent crime. we had slavery and segregation for good reasons. the reasons were that we didnt want our people to be murdered and raped by ethnic blacks

[khalira]

Great interview... 

[athiog]

What the oakloand cops did is considered illegal even in war. You cannot engage anyone aiding a downed "soldier", let alone a citizen protesting. This cop should face the International Criminal Court for warcrimes.

[yesgyes]

war pigs..the fascist police state military industrial prison banker complex sons of bitches have to be stopped one way ot the other. the bastards are totally out of control. this is 1984 INSANE..we murdered over one milliion civilians women and children in iraq and for what. the majority of young people have no opportunity for a job and join the military to go slaughter people as a living. we have destroyed the lives of tens of thousands of kids, seeing the nightmare of war.. it must be stopped

Police have become a Para Military/profiteering wing for the government plain and simple.

[professormaxtrinity]

@OurOxygen The prevalence of PIC, Prison Industrial Complex in usa society is toxic. The advantage we have is that when a Giant complex house ofr cards finally falls, many many cards fall at once. I've had visions of people walking out of prisons w/o incident or resistance from anyone. I'm not sure what the visions mean or how such a thing could occur but, the image reoocurs repeatedly for me and it's profoundly calm and relieving. The frist shall be last & the last shall be first, I dig that.

[OurOxygen]

@professormaxtrinity It is weird but I too envision that,prisoners just walking out of their prisons without resistance.

[professormaxtrinity]

@OurOxygen Wow... the hairs on my neck just stood up as I read that...I don't know how it could happen but, it gives me a good feeling especially when I know... I'm not the only one seeing it. Thanks for telling me that. Peace Friend.
