Corrupt Government Title: The Danger of Obedience: Fake Police Crime Spree The police do not care about keeping you safe. If they did, they wouldnt put innocent people in danger every day by driving unmarked cars, behaving unprofessionally, and performing no-knock raids. All these things make it quite easy to impersonate an officer in order to commit a crime. People know their lives are literally in jeopardy if they disobey even the most minor order from a police officer. Innocent people are no exception, and simply questioning an officer, or asserting ones rights has gotten people beaten, arrested, and even killed. Because of this environment created by an overbearing oppressive police state, a perfect opportunity has opened up for criminals to easily exploit their victims fear of police. Criminals simply need to pose as police, and any resistance on the part of their victims melts away. Posing as Cops to Commit Crimes Its not just for big heists like in the movie The Town that criminals dress as police to commit crimes. It actually happens terrifyingly often. The practice is so common in Miami-Dade that the police have a special task force to investigate instances of criminals impersonating officers. A family in Miami-Dade earlier this year suffered a home invasion after they opened their door to three men in police uniforms. Last year in Tampa a 28-year old woman was pulled over by a fake officer and raped. In April thieves in Tuscon dressed as police to invade a home. In May three suspects still on the loose did the same in Honolulu. A Los Angeles man was convicted last week of fondling two women while posing as an officer and attempting to force another to take her clothes off while pretending to be a detective investigating counterfeit money. In early June a man and a woman were arrested for dressing as federal agents and attempting to break into an apartment in Fresno California. In Cleveland Ohio, a man was recently arrested and charged for handcuffing children on many different occasions in what appears to be a fake scared straight operation. The man was not a police officer, but wearing a gun and vest convinced school and court officials that he was an officer. Even police have been fooled by fake officers, including a 14-year-old boy who simply walked into a Chicago police station and showed up for roll call. Officers handed him a radio and told him to ride along with a female officer. The teenager even helped make an arrest. After four or five hours, she asks, Who is this guy? recalled Jody P. Weis, who was the Chicago police superintendent at the time. Hes in a uniform, he has a goofy badge, he doesnt have a weapon and hes a high school kid. It was so embarrassing. (The embarrassment did not end there for Mr. Weis, who said he had recommended against punishing the teenager in juvenile court because no harm had been done. Three months later, the boy was arrested and charged with stealing a car. Impersonating officers is not uncommon as you can see. This blind obedience to officers has caused women to be sexually assaulted, and homes to be invaded. But it is not just the fake cops you have to worry about. Actual Police Commit Crimes Too Real police commit crimes too, which is all the more reason not to place some members of society above fellow citizens. If a police officer engages an innocent person, that person must essentially ask permission to walk away from the encounter. The fact that police demand unquestioning obedience, and act violently enraged if their authority is challenged only helps criminals get away with their crimes while posing as police officers. But this same bullying extralegal behavior is used by police to commit crimes. Last year a Texas officer sexually assaulted a female driver, and a Honolulu officer was accused of raping a 14-year-old girl. Unfortunately, rape and sexual assault by police officers appear to be extremely common. And even when the case is resolved with a conviction of the officer, the sentence is a miscarriage of justice. One woman was offered a ride home by an officer after an incident had been resolved without any arrests. She said she didnt consent, but didnt resist or say no because she was scared for her life. If I wouldve fought him back, yes, he wouldve murdered me. He wouldve took my life and I have kids, she said. The officer ended up being convicted and sentenced to one year in prison. 61% of all victims of police crimes are women. In San Diego, patrol officers working alone at night committed a number of sexual assaults against women they pulled over.
of all the officers arrested, for offenses ranging from murder to drunken driving, only 54 percent were fired, and 37.5 percent arrested for domestic violence lost their jobs. Police also invade homes. An 80-year-old-man was shot to death by police after they broke into his home in a no-knock raid. They had obtained a search warrant with the only evidence being that they smelled chemicals associated with making meth. Hearing a home invasion, the elderly man picked up a pistol and was shot to death in his bed without firing a shot. No meth was found. The officers were not charged with the murder and were found to have acted appropriately. This highlights how the drug war, no knock raids, and militarized police also contribute to the problems faced when trying to protect your life from thugs in real or fake uniforms. But sometimes cops dont even get a trumped up warrant before murdering innocent civilians. One man was murdered by police when he took his legally owned firearm with him to open the door after a loud knock late at night. The officer did not identify himself, but seeing a gun, shot the man to death. For some reason, the officer was not charged, and the court prevented the mans family from suing him, citing qualified immunity. They said it was not clear that the officer had committed any crime in murdering the homeowner. The problem with police committing crimes is so voluminous that we can only scratch the surface here. But one thing is for sure, you have almost as much reason to fear becoming the victim of a crime from a real uniformed officer as from someone posing as an officer. Solution Indiana passed a law in 2012 that allows citizens to shoot an officer who illegally enters their home. It is unclear why this law was needed since it is illegal for anyone to invade a home, whether they are a cop or not. Having to codify something so obvious shows just how far the government will go to protect their criminal officers. Still, at least Indiana offered some legal cover to citizens forced to protect themselves from police. Of course, most government solutions simply double down on the divide; prosecute impersonating an officer harder, and simply make it illegal to buy a badge or police uniform. Maybe while they are at it, they should ban Dodge Chargers for civilians, and prohibit civilians from wearing matching shirt and pants in any blues, blacks, or tans. As usual, the solution from the government is to make more things illegal and punish pre-crimes like owning objects that might someday be used in a crime. Never does the problem come from the governments end! It is always the damn civilians getting in the way of our brave heroes! But the reality of the situation is that it doesnt matter how many police-like tools and clothing they make illegal, or how hard they punish people who dress up as cops for Halloween. There is a divide between the police and the average citizen, and only by holding police accountable for their actions will the dangers of fake police be mitigated. The only reason criminals have such success with this tactic is the populations blind unquestioning obedience to police, beat into them over the course of years by bullies in blue who ignore the law to assert their will. Its not the uniform, it is that we cannot tell the difference between the behavior of cops and criminals because they act in strikingly similar ways. The solution is to stop giving police extra rights and privileges. It doesnt make any sense that they are held to a lower standard for criminal activity than the rest of the population when they have more responsibility than most to behave appropriately. Any crime committed by an officer should be punished two-fold based on his position of trust and power over civilians, yet all too often they are not punished for their crimes. A criminal is a criminal, whether his uniform and badge are fake or real. Civilians shouldnt have to wait to find out if the officer is real, and they shouldnt have to lay down and allow a real officer to have their way with them, with the only redress being later court action if they are alive to pursue it. This especially because people can be legally barred from pursuing civil action. Also, many police will not be charged or convicted of their crimes, or will receive ridiculously lenient sentences. The two reasons people should not have to fear using such deadly force against home-invading cops is because A) if they are real police they are behaving criminally and everyone has the right to defend themselves from a criminal, and B) they might not be real cops at all, and everyone has the right to defend themselves from a criminal. Not having to stop and wonder if this is a real police officer and wonder if you will be going to prison for decades simply for defending yourself makes you much safer and able to defend yourself and your loved ones. If police are not given extra rights, there will be no reason to impersonate them. Poster Comment: Seems like Indiana is the land of the free, and the home of the brave!

Mostly farmers. There is only one major city, Indianapolis. This whole problem is deliberate. Clinton's 100,000 cops came with new training and low IQ requirements. They don't want cops making judgments in the field; bring 'em in and let the courts do the rest. The whole system is a racket, even if you can afford the attorney's fees, they all make out like bandits. The occasional loss is paid for by taxpayers -- socialized losses and privatizing profits into their own pockets (salaries, fees, and other graft). Fear of the government is the other goal. Ask any competent dictator or oligarch. Can't have peaky citizens messing with the graft system. But hey, if you get connected to deal drugs or traffic in flesh, just keep the palms greased and your protection is a priority.
It is not illegal for police to invade a home with a no-knock search warrant. The key word here is the word unlawful.
And it's been going on forever. Even on Valentine's Day: "At 10:30 a.m. on February 14, 1929, seven men were murdered at the garage at 2122 North Clark Street, in the Lincoln Park neighborhood of Chicago's North Side. They were shot by four men using weapons that included two Thompson submachine guns. Two of the shooters were dressed as uniformed policemen, while the others wore suits, ties, overcoats and hats. Witnesses saw the "police" leading the other men at gunpoint out of the garage after the shooting."
Great. Like most people know when it's illegal for cops to enter their home. I'll bet most never heard of "exigent circumstances" and will end up shooting cops because of their ignorance. I watch enough videos posted here where the citizen is telling the cop he "has no right" to do something which is clearly lawful.
If you don't like the law get some voters together to change it. Either that or shut up and follow the law.
Uh huh. If people should shut up, how do they get other people together to vote for changing the law?
Hey, wait a minute. I see what you're doing.
I'm sorry. I was doing my best misterwhite impersonation.
Pretty good! I apologize, you're impression of a box of rocks was remarkable. 'Course, starting from a Stone, you do have some advantages...
Just do as you're told, they're here to "help" you. More Rom. 13 DHS preachers propaganda. An inspirational tune from the DHS zombie youth, fusion center. It's child abuse. The result to taking a couple of verses of Romans out of context, without reading the whole thing. BARF !!! Is that video from your "collection"?
An inspirational tune from the DHS zombie youth, fusion center. It's child abuse. The result to taking a couple of verses of Romans out of context, without reading the whole thing. the fallacious always-obey-the-government interpretation of Romans 13 is one of the biggest allies any would-be tyrant has. This was Adolf Hitlers favorite passage of Scripture. He instructed his propaganda ministry to prepare sermons and Bible lessons for Germanys churches emphasizing this misinterpretation of Romans 13. Accordingly, the vast majority of Germanys Christians compliantly submitted to Hitlers tyranny, specifically because they had been taught in church that Romans 13 instructed them to do so. They believed that by obeying Hitler, they were obeying God. They believed that Hitler (the state) stood in the place of God per Romans 13. All over America today, pastors and churches share this identical belief. This egregious and ubiquitous misinterpretation of Romans 13 is why I co-authored a book (with my attorney son) to show the true teaching of Romans 13--and all Scripture--regarding submission to government. It is called Romans 13: The True Meaning of Submission. For more information, or to order, go here: Romans 13: The True Meaning Of Submission In reality, the vast majority of Americas pastors, TV preachers, radio preachers, ministers, evangelists, etc., are promoting the Hitlerian philosophy that the state stands in the place of God and must be obeyed without question or hesitation. They believe that anyone (Christian or otherwise) who dares to resist an oppressive state is doing a disservice to God and should be punished. And with the clever enticement of the 501c3 non-profit corporation status that most churches submit to today, they have become--either wittingly or unwittingly--the sheepish slaves of the state. In Biblical terms, they have become idolaters. Look at how many Christians believe that whistleblower Edward Snowden is a traitor and enemy of America. Instead of realizing that the federal governments Orwellian surveillance society is blatantly and overtly unconstitutional, illegal, and immoral and that every preacher in America should be sounding the clarion call repudiating this unlawful activity, most Christians blindly follow Americas pastors who regurgitate the call of compliance and non-resistance to unlawful government--even to the point of calling for the death of the man who simply tried to warn the American citizenry of their governments evil machinations. |
