Police shoot innocent war vet 70 times in his own home...

[Avatard]

A national letter writing campaign to Obama might do it:


Dear Mr. President,

Please stop the drug war (it is a total failure). It is nothing more than a war against the American people.

This request for America is made in the name of Jose Guerena, his children, and his widow.


Signed, __________

didnt i just post this story for you 2 days ago?

Yes, but it was Fox link. Those don't propagate well.

It's like when Sarah Palin says shit.

[Apoc]

I read this the other thread and didnt comment, because Fox made the details so murky. But this is a fucking outrage.

I can honestly say, i've never heard of something like this happening up here in the frozen north. Police dont shoot people for no reason up here, thankfully.

It was even addressed to Kaneman.

Ironically, the last few links that have brought forth issues that you care about have been brought to you by Fox.

I'm kidding, of course. I read news from all outlets.

Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

Every single one of them should be tried with murder and the death penalty should be on the table for each an every one of them.


And I mean everybody, if you so much as put a thumb print on any of those warrants, you're responsible for that man's death.

The police can be in a chase, lose control and kill a bus load of nuns, and it's the person they're chasing's fault. It's time for the same accountability to be shown on both sides of the badge...

This does not add up and should not be happeninig in a free democracy.

No, they did a marijuana trafficking raid and found no marijuana. What they did find, however, were weapons and body armor which leads to the story that, "Hey, we think this guy may have been doing home invasions dressed as a cop."

Kind of like if I come into your house and find a ski mask and say, "Hey, smiley, why you robbin' banks dawg?"

I just dont understand why someone with the power to make this better doesnt step up and do so. All just puppets on someone else's string.

Because the people who do have the power are the ones that want this kind of thing (police unions, prison unions/corporations, Anheiser Busch, Pfizer, etc) to continue and even escalate. The supreme court JUST ruled that police can do these types of raids WITHOUT a warrant as long as they smell marijuana in the residence first.

I love this man.

What Avatard said. If you just post a link, I'm not reading it.

We could only hope that one day justice will be such as that Tmall. Accountability.
