Because we would rather watch the video on youtube, post angry and "reactionary" comments, and walk away without doing anything further, feeling we've accomplished all that's necessary. That's why.

After such despicable behavior I do not know how any of those cops can look in the mirror to shave.

These are the fascist who will be ordered to murder their fellow citizens when martial law is declared and they are so corrupt they will do it with out batting an eye and afterwards will echo the words of OFFICER BUBBLES... and his ilk..."I was just doing my job."

[HellenicDigital]

A "person" is a persona. As I'm sure you've heard, all people are persons, but not all persons are people.

The relevant consideration is how the flesh-and-blood you interacts with such legal fictions as you have, wittingly or unwittingly, established.

You might like the stuff Dean Clifford has on youtube.

If I was a cop? When I was a  kid I wanted to be a cop. Now that the cops have turned into mindless animals who just 'follow illegal orders' and violate peoples rights, instead of serving and protecting us, I would not want to be a cop. No wonder so many people have lost respect for the police.

oh yeah fascist def2..2. Oppressive, dictatorial control.

which is what blair did and then lied about it. he knew what the law allowed and he knowingly admitted breaking that law.

[Jag2012G]

Inflammatory remarks??? THAT is what you are concerned about when people are being physically abused by cops for no reason, being tasered to death because a cop can't be bothered or is to lazy to use any other option or is just simply a sadistic piece a crap who joined the force so he can 'legally' assault people?

People out walking their dog, left standing in the rain for 6-8 hours after being indicriminantly kettled.

This was not under 'duress' it was under an ILLEGAL ORDER!

[firefightergoggie]

Well before you go making inflammatory remarks like that and accuse people of being "fascists", I think you might want to actually research the actually meaning of that word, and then have a look at what the opposite is. (Not an appealing prospect of thats what you want to be regarded as). Look, like it or not, the cops did what they had to do. On an individual basis people react differently under duress. Try imagining what it may have been like to be a cop there on that day. Use empathy

[TheCobraTube]

The Charter does NOT APPLY to you, it applies to "Persons". Look up definition of Person in Black's Law, a corporation, a corporate body. Says "includes" a natural person - look up definition of "includes"....means disqualifies ALL ELSE. Includes means it is that thing ONLY, which means a person is ONLY a corporation, there is no way you can be a "person"!!!  Learn your real freedoms people.

[TheCobraTube]

Look up LEGAL (Man's Laws) and LAWFUL (God's Laws) - you have to choose.

[TheCobraTube]

As soon as you get "counsel" or an attorney or lawyer, you're already in their jurisdiction and they can do whatever the fuck they want to you. You need to stand LAWFULLY as a MAN, not legally as a "person". As a man, DO NOT CONSENT, etc.....as soon as you do, you lost

[nintynine waystodie]

Yeah you could be right to the point that laughing and then blowing more right after that might not have been the smartest thing to do but I still think he walked up and chose that spot to stand just to be an asshole about it. I'm not going to take the time to check right now but I think she actually won a law suit against him for that... So if I got that right it kinda came out in the wash in the end anyway. LOL Officer bubbles... Some thing about that just sounds so wrong LOL

[Oliver9402]

Officer Bubbles is my hero and inspiration.

[nintynine waystodie]

Nice to know you're a liberal dumb fuck that calls anything that makes you appear to be talking out your ass made up. Which you are talking out your ass. And you are telling me all cops are perfect every time you speak. You probably suck their dick to get out of a ticket anyway. I got better shit to do then argue with a moron liberal that has cobwebs where their brain belongs. Officer Bubbles is a little bitch, end of story.
