Altamonte Springs, FL — A concerned citizen, with a knack for blindly following all decrees handed down from the establishment on high, conducted their patriotic duty of ‘seeing something’ and then ‘saying something’ last week. The resultant tattle-telling ended with police action against four little old ladies. Lee Delnick, Bernice Diamond, Helen Greenspan and Zelda King, all elderly women above the age of 87, had their weekly game of MahJong shut down by police who were apparently uninterested in solving actual crimes. According to CBS Tampa, King says word spread about their weekly gathering and that a “troublemaker” in the community called the police citing a law that prohibits playing the game for money. Shortly after the call, police showed up and shut down the game. Luckily the four elderly women escaped the raid without being tasered, shot or beaten to death. The concerned citizen was apparently attempting to report the women for illegally gambling. “This is ridiculous,” King said. “We haven’t played in the clubhouse for weeks! We have to go to each other’s homes to play, and not everyone lives in Escondido. It is an international game, and we are being crucified!” Heritage Florida reports: King, who is 87, said that playing mahjong is good for senior citizens, and mentioned that her neurologist, Dr. Ronald Oppenheim, has told her that it is one of the best games to play for older people because it can delay and possibly prevent dementia. The ladies offered to just play for the fun of it. No deal. The Escondido property manager suggested that they “lay low, until they can try to resolve things legally.” Finally, things did get resolved legally. It appears there is no ordinance in Altamonte Springs against mahjong gambling. In fact, the only ordinance found by the Heritage was in the Florida Gambling Laws, Statute 849.085, which states: “Certain penny-ante games are not crimes; ‘Penny-ante game’ means a game or series of games of poker, pinochle, bridge, rummy, canasta, hearts, dominoes, or mahjong in which the winnings of any player in a single round, hand, or game do not exceed $10 in value. (The ladies have a $4 limit). So, it appears that the police, in their lack of knowledge of the law, raided a group of elderly women and shut down an innocent game of mahjong for no reason. In the meantime, according to the Department of Justice, there are currently over 400,000 untested rape kits collecting dust in police evidence rooms nationwide, and many other estimates suggest that this number could be as high as one million. As a result of this horrific negligence, roughly 3% of rape cases in America are actually solved. This is in spite of the fact that many rape kits have a high chance of leading to an arrest since most rapists are career criminals who have their DNA on file. When the government is more concerned with an elderly group of women playing a game, than they are with a solving real crimes, we might live in a police state.

You see cop and think he did this or that. Why not tell the truth and say political government figures told cops to raid here or there? Blaming a cop is like blaming a military private for killing people in war?! Thats what they do. High up figures tell them that these are evil people and go get them and thats what they do. I blame the politicians not the grunts. Nothing will change until DA's and judges are held accountable for their actions.
Apparently, cops do not even know the laws they are tasked to enforce. So, it appears that the police, in their lack of knowledge of the law, raided a group of elderly women and shut down an innocent game of mahjong for no reason. Go ahead and make excuses for these badged thugs - it's what I expect from you and the other members of your cop-worshiping clan here at LF. In a Cop Culture, the Bill of Rights Doesn’t Amount to Much Dang. That must have ruined your Thanksgiving.
Sure thing, you braying jackass - how is it that you are the one who supports this police state bullshit? I'm sure you could find all kinds of excuses for the badged thugs to execute little old ladies. Frigging jack-boot licker. In a Cop Culture, the Bill of Rights Doesn’t Amount to Much The police should not investigate complaints of illegal gambling without checking with Deckard first. The note advised players to bring small bills... "A complaint was made and they had to check it out," he said.
You would have to go to the store for more hand lotion.
Who does? You can be arrested for just about any reason because there are too many laws thanks to progressive shits being elected in government. Who do we blame there? We the people? Then go a head and blame cops for everything wrong in the world instead of those who make the rules. I hope it makes you sleep better at night.
You're a despicable little prick. You're the one who gets serious wood whenever you interact with a cop. A meek, submissive little slave who is repulsive to any one who cherishes liberty. In a Cop Culture, the Bill of Rights Doesn’t Amount to Much There you go projecting again. You're cop obsessed.
Maybe thats what he wants.
You're insane. When did you start worshiping cops? Here's one of your idols doing what cops do best. Graphic Video Shows Cowardly Cops Break into Man’s Home and Kill His Dog After it Ran Away In a Cop Culture, the Bill of Rights Doesn’t Amount to Much You know you have a fetish for cops. All you do everyday is post your rough trade fantasies.
Psychological projection, also known as blame shifting, is a theory in psychology in which humans defend themselves against their own unpleasant impulses by denying their existence while attributing them to others.[1] For example, a person who is rude may constantly accuse other people of being rude. According to some research, the projection of one's negative qualities onto others is a common process in everyday life In a Cop Culture, the Bill of Rights Doesn’t Amount to Much Congrats on coming out of the closet. If only all the police would all submit themselves to you, your sweet, sweet, love could transform them.
One cannot prevent mass violence oversees from spilling over to home country. When for several years hundreds thousands of young men get formed suppressing foreign populations and tens of millions cheer them, it is matter of time when domestic population starts to experiences it too. Including 90 years old ladies.

Americans who have no experience with, or knowledge of, tyranny believe that only terrorists will experience the unchecked power of the state. They will believe this until it happens to them, or their children, or their friends.

The gambling gripe was forwarded to Altamonte Springs police, who dispatched a detective to nose around the clubhouse where a leaflet, taped to the door, announced Friday night "horse racing" — a game in which a dice roll decides how fast your pony runs.
