Manchester cops *point* guns at Free Stater, says activist

[IPGAuto]

$ 100.00 for this guy to advertise your site? Hahah thats funny that people throw money away like that, specially when they can do this free

[tgodmuthafucka]

thumbs up if you think cops are just PUSSIES with GUNS

[MrFakeTastic]

sorry but your corny advertisement needs to go.

[Goldbeed12]

how do you see a warrent if you dont open the door

[vladimiris666]

@Goldbeed12 the windows my friend what door does not have windows if not have them paste it in the window or slide it under or threw

[joker22m]

Should have arrested him for harboring a fugitive...

[BradleyBrantner94]

I think if we witness a cop doing something wrong, we can arrest them.

[JHK1976]

@BradleyBrantner94 OK try that one and tell me how that goes.

[BradleyBrantner94]

@JHK1976 OH I will! I'll be armed too! Just because they have badges doesn't mean they can do what they want. Someone needs to put them in their place before it's too late.

[NDNPolice]

@BradleyBrantner94 What might you think is appropriate Bradley? Please, enlighten me.

[BradleyBrantner94]

@NDNPolice What needs done? I'll enlighten you. We need nothing less than a revolution here in America. Our forefathers fought against and left their oppressors for the same things that are currently happening. Don't be fooled into thinking our government is out to protect us from people across the world that wish us harm. No doubt, there are terrorists. But did you know more people die in their bathtubs than from "terrorists"? And people believe we are fighting against this... You're all doomed

[NDNPolice]

@BradleyBrantner94 Have you spoken to a psychiatrist or at least sought help from any reasonable person in your life who may help you work through your delusions in a positive way so you may bring yourself back to reality?

[BradleyBrantner94]

@NDNPolice Not to be rude, but your the one that needs help. Did you know our forefathers experienced and went through the same kind of criticism you are giving me right now? But they held strong, like I will against you. Your opinion on the world is different because from what I can tell you must be one of those bullies with badges that think they can get away with anything... You need to come to reality. Help yourself, and help America. Fight against this tyranny... Don't join in on it...

[NDNPolice]

@BradleyBrantner94 Hate to burst your bubble Brad, but based off your statements alone, it is likely you fall within the spectrum of a crazy person with regard to your thought process. Consider seeking help.

[BradleyBrantner94]

@NDNPolice Haha. And how did you come up with that conclusion if you don't mind me asking? Did your commanding officer tell you that? Or the president himself? haha Please enlighten my dark world.

[NDNPolice]

@BradleyBrantner94 Most people who are crazy haven't a clue about their own condition. We aren't oppressed by the crown and this isn't Egypt. We don't need a revolution here in the states. Instead of complaining you ought to be greatful you live in the most prosperous nation on the face of the earth.

[BradleyBrantner94]

@NDNPolice "The Tree of Liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the BLOOD of patriots and tyrants." THOMAS JEFFERSON

Wake up man. Why are you so afraid and lazy?

[NDNPolice]

@BradleyBrantner94 When you've successfully completed 28 weeks of boot camp; when you put your life on the line every day in the course of your duties to serve and protect other human beings, many of whom you've never met; when you've responded to fatal motor vehicle accidents and suicide's and have had the 'pleasure' of being designated to give the death notification to the family; you'll have earned the right to criticize. Until such time, I have nothing further to discuss with you.

[BradleyBrantner94]

@NDNPolice Yes I understand that what you do is good. To some extent. But your pretty much saying that I cannot carry out my duty as an American citizen and criticize MY government until I have done what you done. I think you might be better off in Nazi Germany or Communist Russia.

[attorneyskillforjew]

@BradleyBrantner94 YOU ARE A DUMBASS IF YOU WANT TO BE A CITIZEN. WAKE UP NON JEW AND GO TO 1215 ORG AND LEARN ABOUT BEING A PEOPLE

[blueshiftchess]

@NDNPolice wait are you trying to meld what a soldier does and that of a cop. Thats pathetic. Cops do nothing but control the public through force no different then nazis to the jewish... i am a soldier i have served my bid. Dont ever say cause they roll around in a AC picking on teenagers they are doing something good. Your a punk whos never done anything cop or not. BE A SOLDIER not a cop at least one can actually do good in peoples lives. and since your a moron ill tell you its not a cop. 

[blueshiftchess]

@NDNPolice this is a prime example of how all police officers are dehumanized and assume before any guilt has arisen on the party that they must be a criminal or in this case a crazy person. Now if this d-bags best friend said it he doesnt think this because he has whats known as a social tie. This is what makes a police officer rationalize the fact that they treat everyone as a criminal and are a savior to this nation. When in fact he is crazy and needs help and is an opressor.

[Snipe4261]

What did they arrest the other guy for?

[tyhouston5]

Felt threatened by a closed door?

[newdarnaccount]

Funny thing, in Arkansas (by statute) a misdemeanor warrant can't legally issue unless there's there's danger or probablity the person will flee--otherwise a summons must issue. Charges were kicked based on warrantless arrests because evidence was fruit of the poisonous tree.

[CurtHowland]

"We felt threatened by your not opening your door."

.

Leave it to an armed, armored "highly" trained officer to be threatened by a closed door.

[SSILENTNATION]

@CurtHowland Oh right - because police officers never get hurt by people who barricade themselves in homes - cops never get assaulted or murdered. Naturally - they should be able to look in their crystal ball and know that the man behind the door is practicing yoga versus finding a weapon to use against them. I mean....it's not like people on here ever threaten them with violence right?

[CurtHowland]

@SSILENTNATION No, SS, they don't.

.

Just in case you didn't notice, the POLICE are the ones who initiated the interaction. The POLICE came to the door, the POLICE escalated the threat, the POLICE hauled people away in chains.

.

The one and only reason that the situation occurred is because the POLICE caused it. They initiated it, their actions are THEIR responsibility.

[SSILENTNATION]

@CurtHowland Aw Curtsey - you freestaters can't accept responsibility for anything - always playing the blame game. Soooo.....you think the police wrote down a bunch of names, threw it in a hat and pulled out names for weekend fun? LOL - funny how my neighbors and I never seem to have a problem with police.

[CurtHowland]

@SSILENTNATION "you freestaters can't accept responsibility for anything"

.

"Responsibility" for what, exactly? Being quietly at home? What an awful crime that is!

.

The cops could have delivered a summons with a polite knock, commensurate with the completely non-violent nature of the supposed infraction.

.

But no, they CHOSE violence.

[SSILENTNATION]

@CurtHowland They do politely knock...but no one wants to answer the door! Russell Kanning had a warrant for failure to appear.....HELLO....he had his chance - he CHOSE not to go....so......that is where this little thing called "accepting responsibility" applies. I have yet to see any violence on the part of NH cops against freestaters. I also have not seen any cops shouting on bullhorns at citizens calling them "liars" as they mind their own business (as seen in Nashua 4:20).

[CurtHowland]

@SSILENTNATION "Aw Curtsey..."

.

Fuck you, too.

[SSILENTNATION]

@CurtHowland *raising my dress and curtseying* *blows kiss to Curtsey*

[dabigez357]

@SSILENTNATION well i am sure you dont stand up for your rights so they dont care because you go along to get along spineless

[SSILENTNATION]

@dabigez357 Oh yes I know.... because being able to smoke pot is the most important "right" we as humans should be standing up for. LOL - I do more for the good of humanity (including people who WISH they had a working spine to begin with) then any of these selfish self appointed liberty bell ringers put together. So keep yelling in that bullhorn.....so far it is really working out well for you all.

[dabigez357]

@SSILENTNATION ~ what you dont understand is all rights are important whether you agree or not thats why is called your rights.. as long as you dont hurt or harm someone or their property and do not commit fraud on a contract there can be no crime....the goverment or a person will not be telling myself what i can and can't do you. you need to open your mind and stop being an advocate for the enemy and stand with common mankind. have a nice day.

[SSILENTNATION]

@dabigez357 Sorry....I don't believe in anarchism. What gives a freestater a "right" to pass out marijuana joints to 10th graders at 4:20 events - as seen on Ridley vids - and adamantly supported by a freestaters on here? I happen to be thankful for most laws...I may not agree with them all - but if I felt strongly enough in wanting to change them, I would not blatantly violate them and then cry wolf later when I am arrested. Open your own mind and go to the statehouse - we are a land of laws.

[sstx44]

@SSILENTNATION you are such a joke! nobody is giving kids pot! this is the only thing you lying freaks say because you know FOR A FACT that pot is not bad,so you go to the one excuse that gets ppls attention, CHILDREN! this is a playbook move done by politicians ALL the time! your argument is WRONG STUPID AND WITHOUT ANY CREDIBILITY! GET A LIFE ASSHOLE!

[SSILENTNATION]

@sstx44 And a hearty fuck you to you too. I guess my eyes must deceive me......the three kids I personally know from the Keene High School in the tenth grade seen smoking pot (as shown right here on the ridleyreport) are figments of my imagination. I guess my talking about it with them later was a dream. LOL - If you had a clue in that peabrained head of yours, you would have seen around here that I support pot legalization. So....now don't you finally feel like the dumbfuck that you are...?

[Yoni89]

@SSILENTNATION What gives the government a "right" to point a gun at your head, threatening you with imprisonment or death if you don't submit a large portion of your paycheck to them? Let alone to fund policing the world, as well as murders and frivolous wars.

[fczwartek]

Some free stater or another gets arrested every other week! This is really nothing new.... I highly doubt it's "the most dramatic thing to ever happen to a free stater."

[NoLongerFooled]

The Establishment takes it to the next level.........violence.

[slewofdamascus]

This makes me so sick, and I call on all the activists in NH, especially ALL of the free-staters to come to the aid of your fellow lovers of liberty, man. Put aside petty differences, if for no other reason than because you cannot survive in the present conditions as a divided group. I would like the Nashua Police to know that they have helped to convince me that moving to Nashua and joining the struggle for liberty is etched in my plans.

[GetMeThere1]

i.e., make the fuckers stand out there in the cold and rain for half and hour until your attorney arrives. By expressing a reasonable FEAR (from the pounding and the unholstering of weapons) you have NOT resisted arrest.

[GetMeThere1]

btw, the IDEAL scenario: a steel door (with door-frame tougheners) and a cooperative criminal attorney. When they pound on the door you inform them that you're afraid to open a door when it's pounded on in a threatening manner, and that you have called your lawyer to come to your residence and verify they have a warrant--at which time you will surrender to arrest.

[SSILENTNATION]

@GetMeThere1 Yeah right - and I am sure every attorney is just waiting by the phone at night to drive over to some smelly mobile home for someone who doesn't have the tact and grace to simply open the door when it is knocked on. Any you all wonder why police don't give any of you people any respect when all you do is plot childish games with them.

[GetMeThere1]

@SSILENTNATION : Anyone who wishes can make a prior agreement (and perhaps pay a retainer) with an attorney to represent him in whatever manner they both agree upon.

It's not the job of people to show "tact and grace" toward police officers. It IS the job of police to show respect toward the citizens they work for.

Dealing with an often brutish legal system is a very serious game--not a childish one.

[SSILENTNATION]

@GetMeThere1 Respect is a two way street, otherwise, who on earth would want to be a police officer? I doubt there would be long lines at the recruitment booths if one of the benefits of the job was being yelled at through a bullhorn every day at 4:20, while everyone else gets to sit back laugh and then post it on youtube for everyone to take one sided cracks at. All I have seen on Ridley vids is...for the most part - police officers showing incredible restraint.

[GetMeThere1]

@SSILENTNATION : You expose an unsettling aspect of your character with your response about people wanting to be police in order to be "respected." To be a LEO is to be a public SERVANT, and anyone taking the job should do so out of a wish to make their living serving public interests in a USEFUL manner--especially by serving the SPIRIT of the law moreso than the letter. Unfortunately, very few cops (or politicians) today have that perspective.

[SSILENTNATION]

@GetMeThere1 Oh how I love when people put words in my mouth to make their little agenda sound so peaceful. I didn't say people become cops to be respected - so you can feel settled again. Don't you think it humanly to be respectful to all persons, regardless of occupational choice? Or....do you just think it is acceptable to treat your "servants" like crap? There is no such thing as a "SERVANT" anymore...sorry if you feel your better than others, but...well....you're not.

[GetMeThere1]

@SSILENTNATION : Police have a unique position in society--by having the "right" under special circumstances to take away citizen's liberty, or to initiate violence against a citizen. They should certainly NOT be respected because they are assigned powers. They should be respected for HOW WELL they manage their powers. Do you really need to have this explained to you?? In a sane society, police more than ANYONE should have to EARN any respect they command.....more

[GetMeThere1]

cont: Police (like judges) are due respect as a VEHICLE of the rule of law they represent. Put as people, they are due respect only based on whether or not they earn it. Most cops, quite honestly, are not bright enough to make the distinction.

[SSILENTNATION]

@GetMeThere1 Again - everything you're talking about - I agree with. I have yet to say otherwise, so you can stop putting quarters into your high horse ride. When police serve an arrest warrant....it is they're job - it is neither your place or mine to decide what warrants they decide to serve and when. I have yet to see a police officer act "unrespectful" or abusive in their powers to their "servants" at 4:20 events...despite people doing everything they can to bait them otherwise.

[GetMeThere1]

This is obviously a "terror tactic." For that kind of bullshit misdemeanor-level thing in a small town it's natural to simply CALL the person on the phone and tell them to report to the police station on their warrant.

[SSILENTNATION]

@GetMeThere1 That would be iilegal for a police officer to do that. A warrant is an order - signed by a judge, which commands the person listed to be arrested. If a warrant (like for Russell Kanning's failure to appear) is issued - that usually means they don't show up anyways, so what good is a phone call going to do.

[GetMeThere1]

@SSILENTNATION : That's not true. It's up to police to orchestrate an arrest--they can do it any way they please...which is often not at all. An arrest (or in this case, no doubt, a bench) warrant isn't an all points bulletin where police drop everything in order to "apprehend their man".

Indeed, arrest warrants are a matter of public record.

[SSILENTNATION]

@GetMeThere1 You're wrong. An warrant for someone's arrest - is an order. It is non-negotiable and there isn't a thing a police officer can do about it.

[GetMeThere1]

@SSILENTNATION : I know what a warrant is. And IF a police officer happens to MEET someone on an arrest warrant, then they must arrest them. OTHERWISE, it's a matter of POLICE ADMINISTRATION as far as HOW police resources are used to fulfill the warrant. There is NO LEGAL PROHIBITION against police calling someone and asking them to come surrender to a warrant.

[SSILENTNATION]

@GetMeThere1 Okay....so now you're halfway home - you concede to at least part of my point - which is a far cry from what you were saying originally (albeit with ALOT of unnecessary CAPITAL letters here and THERE for effect). I agree with part of your statement....in that if a warrant is hanging in the department there is nothing that says they have to run right out and serve it. But you are wrong about the phone call bit. I doubt Russell Kanning would say "ok be right there" anyways.

[GetMeThere1]

@SSILENTNATION : The main point here is that the police force is being used for POLITICAL purposes (by the police themselves, and by Nashua judges). The police have made a "force-wide project" of the crime of "public disorder" by compiling lists of protestors, etc., over a 3 week period. The judges are oppressing citizens by requesting arrests where citations alone are more than sufficient. This is an attempt to USE the law for political purposes--rather than to serve citizen interests.

[SSILENTNATION]

@GetMeThere1 I would agree a citation would be better served versus a warrant; however, I do not know what they are being charged with or the reasons why a warrant was ever granted. If they are simply charges filed in connection with the 4:20 stuff - then I can see a warrant being heavy handed. I guess patience in this matter though - must be a virtue. One thing is for certain - the REAL facts can only be had by attending - and not these biased one sided vids.

[GetMeThere1]

@SSILENTNATION : I agree that there would be more fodder for discussion if there was more complete information about all the circumstances. I'm pretty sure, though, that the police haven't belatedly discovered that one of the protestors had slipped away from the crowd and robbed a bank....

In any case, I appreciate your willingness to have an open-minded discussion. It SHOULD be pretty clear to everyone involved that these people aren't trying to commit crimes against citizens.

[mxemt35]

will maybe if you open the door and look at the warrant let them do there job they had every right to do what they did when people like you fight the cops on shit like that all the time its why they do what they do so next time when they show up with a warrant don't break balls. I don't like big government any more then you do but don't be a fucking ass hole about things when you know your pushing your luck

[Anothercoilgun]

SS all over again.

[BankstersR4Communism]

Y'all need to group together and refuse this Tyranny. I have experienced this a few times.

They're picking you off one by one and testing to see whether they can do it nationwide.Make a stand now or they'll start doing it all over soon.

The Tyrants in power love to test, test and retest to make their final blow. Create Militias of armed peaceful people and not allow them to continue to do this.

Stay in communication, set up a more powerful communications network. Long live the Free State~!

[Weapon01]

All cops are bad cops.

The proof is the badge.

[justwannamakeluv]

A typical example of the police abusing their authority. Cops need to remember who pays their frigging salaries and stop abusing the power they have. Perhaps if cops were a little bit nicer people would be likewise nicer to them. As for me they are guilty until proven innocent which is how they treat civilians!

[Frettsy]

I'm pretty sure warrants have an expiration date? I think it's like 48 hours.

[crypter27]

How can you feel threatened by not opening the door,the logic of the cops is non existant & its more like excuses!

[Anothercoilgun]

@crypter27

He is lucky to not have been taken in himself for the de facto excuse "resiting arrest".

Have people actually thought about the logic behind those words. How can someone be only charged with resisting arrest. Not even scientifically possible.

[crypter27]

@Anothercoilgun How so?

[oterotularosa]

hello nazi corporate run america!!!!!!!

[robinhoodintn1]

well i see your still pukeing out that shit left and right i never saw anyone take up for nazi cops as much as you do, but one fool will take up for another fool they have know life ,no friends, except nazi cops so i guess that's all you have in life ssilentnation.

[mutantofnature]

niggah FACK DA POHLICE!!!!

[nosoxfan]

exactly if u dont open the door then they think you have a weapon so basically they did nothing wrong

[usmcbess]

If they have a warrant you should let them kick in the door.

[SSILENTNATION]

If police had a warrant for me, and I refused to let them in, I wouldn't expect them to barge in with a freshly baked apple pie. You freestaters are always touting your guns and the reasons for them, well hello...what the fuck do you think the cops have them for? In any event, as this moron says...the second they learned no threat was imminent to them, they reholstered - so tough shit stop your bitching - you're all making your beds, they are just going to supply the cell block.

[usmcbess]

@SSILENTNATION u must have a boring life if all u have to do is troll.

[SSILENTNATION]

@usmcbess LOL.....Look what you just wrote. - I mean really.

[ninjabunnyman]

@SSILENTNATION

I would assume they have guns to defend themselves if they were attacked. That's why normal people carry guns.

Apparently they use them to threaten peaceful people who have not harmed anyone's person or anyone's property, so they can barge into homes without showing warrants.

[SSILENTNATION]

@ninjabunnyman How can they show a warrant if the moron doesn't answer the door? Peaceful? If Ian Freeman thinks they listen to his radio program, then the ilks lime-minded freestaters must think they watch these vids....and what do we find on them...?....threats of violence against the police all the time. Are you really this stupid? What do you really expect a cop to do....just hope everyone they deal with isn't violent? Reality check time -

[ninjabunnyman]

@SSILENTNATION

1.He had a peephole. He specifically asked to see the warrant, and they refused. I really think you'd be better served to try to think for yourself more. You sound like a blind apologist, which I'm sure is not what you want to be.

2.What threats of violence?!

3.I don't suppose that everyone I deal with isn't violent. Yet, somehow I manage not to draw a gun on people who have not tried to attack me in any way. I also manage not to bust in people's doors, and kidnap innocents.

[SSILENTNATION]

@ninjabunnyman Okay fine....points taken (except this whole "kidnap" mantra. In any event.....imagine yourself for one moment as a cop who has to go serve these warrants. Perhaps you imagine others to be like yourself (in that you won't harm anyone). Unfortunately....cops get assaulted quite often, indeed killed...even in small towns - so the use of having a firearm at the ready is not something I consider violent. It is just what I happen to believe; we obviously disagree on this point.

[ninjabunnyman]

@SSILENTNATION

I agree, absolutely, with police carrying firearms. I'm sure they're more likely to get attacked then others, because they often (rightly) involve themselves in domestic disputes, robberies, and the like.

I support a lot of what police do. It's just situations like these where I think they go very wrong. I think police should be focused on defending the persons and property of their neighbors -- that's a service I'd pay for.

Thanks for your fair minded attitude.

[Anothercoilgun]

@ninjabunnyman

Right on the money. Never mind the ssilentation troll.s

[cazyblood3]

god its police state bullshit

[desire4liberation]

hear of AGRiP?

The Association of Governmental Risk Pools (AGRiP) was organized in late 1998 as a membership organization for public entity risk and benefits pools in North America. It is a successor to the Pooling Section that operated for nearly 20 years under the auspices of the Public Risk Management Association.

seems these groups are bonding the police/courts....

this shit is getting DEEP!!!!!

TREASON!!!!
