Tyranny USA -- Unarmed Man Shot Dead By Police While Watering Neighbor's Lawn

Here is a perfect example of the citizen spy culture taking root in the USA with the "If you see something, say something" program encouraged by Homeland Security. A 911 call apparently was made after a neighbor mistakenly interpreted a man sitting on a porch as a "drunk with a gun." Officers arrived, ready for battle, and the man was killed . . . while watering his neighbor's lawn

KTLA Long Beach "Cops", or "Police" Murder 35 year old Long Beach man for watering lawn in Long Beach upscale
neighborhood Belmont Shore.

A neighbor called the LBPD about a man with a gun that was sitting
in a lawn chair on a friends front lawn with what appeared to be a firearm.

Police admit not following procedure.
The 35 year old subject was not ordered to drop
his firearm (garden hose) before LBPD shot and killed him.

Bloody hell. it's damn near unimaginable for me that something like this can happen. It's outrageous on so many levels...

Understand that ALL cops are orchestrating thier agenda as an INSTITUTION. "Serve and Protect" is reserved for those whom can afford thier service and protection. It's just a business to them and for them. Your tears and protests are contemptible to them. They are little more than jackals, feeding on the suppurating flesh of a crippled society. They will not go away until you make them go away. Pick up your own firearm, and stop dialing 911. Police yourselves and your own communities. Fuck them.

This is so INEXCUSABLE.

Oh man...you gotta be fucking KIDDING me.

Thank God the police are investigating themselves again. Hopefully this idiot cop gets the standard two month paid vacation he deserves, that will teach him. They are publicly defending this action, which means they already swept it under the rug. Don't expect justice

The cops can't determine by sight what a water nozzle looks like compared to a real gun? That's fucking BullShit! This country's 'law enforcement', is no longer in place to protect citizens, it is instead another extension and appendage of the fascist governmental agencies that use it to repress and instill fear in the population. Time to get the hell out of this country!

@michaelmacfee Your have about a zero percent chance of being killed by a "terrorist" lol. Can someone please define what a terrorist is w/o being racist anyways?

[michaelmacfee]

you're 8 times more likely to be killed by a police officer than a terrorist.

@shadowcheto85 I meant to say, "They still did NOT follow protocol." I'm also saying that we weren't there. Don't get me wrong. I think the police get away with way too much but only an idiot or a drunk would point something that looked like a firearm at a bunch of cops with weapons drawn. In this case it was a drunk. However, they didn't have to shower him with bullets. 1 to the arm to disarm him would have worked.

F*cking murderous pigs!

If you can't tell the difference between a plastic hose mechanism and a real gun, then its questionable how some one ever had the right to own a badge and a gun and call themselves a Police Officer.

99 percent of cops make the other 1 percent look bad.
