The War on Drugs is stupid and stupid cops like to enforce it. Yes, there stupid cops, and they never seem to be fired. A couple in Clayton County Georgia (the Atlanta area) who owned a property were arrested for "tampering with evidence" after reporting to police illegal...
A number of different issues today. I. There is a woman who was born a man playing basketball for a small woman's college basketball team. A talk show host asked rhetorically, did she have the right to have this operation to go from a man to a woman. Well, it's her body. The...
Here are more examples of police violating the basic liberties of their fellow citizens. I wish that there came a time when there weren't more examples, but sadly I can't even write about all of them, unless I devote my column to just police abuses, and no other issues. In...
Number of issues to get to: I. In Michigan the Republican controlled state government changed union laws to reduce a source of funding from unions to Democrats, in order to ensure they retain a hold on their power. This is supposedly for workers, but actually it is for their...
Julian Miller, who filmed with his cell phone the shooting of Darius Kennedy by the New York Police Department, had his cell phone taken away by the NYPD and never returned. Miller was also told, again illegally, not to talk to the media. Where is that cell phone and what...
The police are sometimes wrong. Sometimes often. Police in New York City demanded quotas for NYPD patrol officers. Innocent young men are often arrested for mild conduct, in order to reach quotas. But before being brought before a judge, these arrestees are often released,...
At the Atlanta Eagle, an Atlanta bar with gay patrons, police conducted a raid in 2009. A website dedicated to the memory of this raid, states on their website: "An independent investigation has confirmed that Atlanta police officers broke the law during the raid of the...
In this case out of Denver, CO, a man offers to be a witness for a driver stopped by the police. He offers to testify that the driver did in fact, stop at a stop sign. Frankly, I don't know if the driver did or not, but I am more interested in the reaction by the police. The...
A woman named Alicia Forrest was thrown hard to the ground by a Denver police officer in 2008, while protesting what seemed a very questionable arrest of a man named Carlo Garcia.The officer, Scott Stewart, was not fired or punished in anyway. Forrest is maybe a little over...
A federal judge has allowed (not ruled but just allowed) a court case to proceed on the clearly unconstitutional practice of stop/frisk in New York City. Technically stop/frisk are two different things. Stop supposedly needs only reasonable suspicion. The frisk part...
This is video of four Chicago cops interrogating the political activies a few men who were stopped for turning into a driveway to turn around. Yes, they were stopped for that. Since these men were later arrested for alleged terrorism in a raid with a warrant not even signed...
I just finished George Carlin's book, Last Words. It's different than anything else he wrote, because it's his autobiography. Interesting and amusing, of course. Well, when Carlin was younger he knew the comedian and social critic, Lenny Bruce. Bruce was before my time, but...
Twelve minutes, that is all it took. Just twelve minutes. In twelve minutes the jury had convicted Marissa Alexander of a criminal offense that carried a mandatory 10-20 year term. Frankly, some juries take longer to decide which restaurant they are going order from. The...
