Law Enforcement: Minneapolis Pays For Drug Raid Cop's Attack on Bystander

They make complete video camera/solid state drive units that can be worn, just put a timestamp in em, and require full video/ audio monitoring while they have a gun on. We also must insist on full video monitoring of all government offices, and I don't mean public monitoring, I mean, full office coverage, for all elected officials. period. And court buildings too, chambers, clerks office DA's office, every government office, we have the right to keep an eye on them just as much as they think they have the right to put cameras every where they can in 'public" places, and with all the corruption lately, we need it.

The problem with ending prohibition, in my opinion, is: What would we do with all of the policemen and women who would become unnecessary? They have no real life skills unless killing maiming is wanted. HEY! We could use those useless men and women to fight the illegal wars in the several arenas around the world!
They would still be creating havoc, and the useful men and women now being wasted in those silly wars could be brought back home and once more become productive members of society.
Thank you,

The hand that held the billyclub can use an axe on deadwood now threatening more wildfire in California and other drought-stricken zones! Contracting companies such as famous and beloved Halliburton can perform their catering and security thing for millions of guest workers from Afghanistan, Zimbabwe and other underemployment-stricken lands living in FEMA camp housing along roads and streambeds where the work of brushfilling for water retention goes forward. Then into the mass of cellulose fastgrowing invasive seeds can be scattered-- GAIH (Government-Approved Industrial Hemp), WLLW (Weepy Long Leaf Watertree) etc.

Because the deadwood is to be placed in streambeds to retain water the project could be named Bushwater and someone from an appropriately named famous political family made the czar over the program. (In July, 2001, before being distracted by other things, President George W. Bush was pictured with hatchet in hand under a headline: "Bush takes a Whack at Forest Fires.")

This was written from a very negative stand point against police, the people who are trying to keep all of us safe. These officers have their lives on the line everyday and have to deal with bad people who make poor decisions each day... until you have walked in their shoes, confronting situations that are dangerous you can't understand how to react. This is not a race thing either, but a basic understanding on how to conduct yourself in life.

I think it was an injustice that Minnapolis paid all this money out to someone who lives in public housing who has a history of drug addiction and has not held a stable job in years - I smell something fishy. Minneapolis needs to hire a big time legal team to have on staff instead of paying money for stupid cases by drug addicts that can't obey an order from police to get out of the way. Its sad that everyone gives police officers such a hard time these days. Many are just good guys, doing a hard job and they certainly deserve out respect because I am pretty sure many of us couldn't hack it!

PS... If we all keep complaining about stuff, soon the cops won't be able to do anything anymore! Then where does that leave us when someone get their house broken into, roughed up, a drug deal happens or their is a shooting... Decision are hard and reacting to it is hard.
