Interestingly, there is very little discussion here of the seemingly
weekly incidents of outrageous police brutality perpetrated on unarmed
civilians. Sometimes but rarely are these attacks recorded on
"cop-cams." If they are recorded, it's usually because a bystander sees
the police attacking someone and they record it, and then the cops try
to stop the bystander from recording, or they try to grab the camera
away. We've all seen the vids of these incidents, the one in which four
cops knock some guy or gal to the ground, and then continue to beat the
crap out of that person who is no longer a threat to anyone...or the
cops start shooting an unarmed person and keep shooting and shooting and
shooting. Remember that incident in NYC when Guiliani was mayor? Bruce
Springsteen memorialized it in a song called "American Skin - 41 Shots."
Four thug cops fired 41 shots into an innocent man who was trying to get
his wallet out of his pants.

The police are out of control. They're acting like the "special" police
forces in the old Sov Bloc used to act.

You're quoting The Boss now?
Nothing better to do eh?

Desperate times require desperate measures.
Get your home boys to behave and the cops will respond in kind.

Happy Thanksgiving, Turkey. ;-)
