Los Angeles, CA — A video uploaded to Facebook last week shows the ridiculous nature of the American police state.
According to the video uploader, the police in the video below came to this house because they saw a teenager riding his bike with no hands and without a helmet. Not wanting to be kidnapped or killed, the teenager rode his bike home after he saw the police.
When police showed up, you’d think they were responding to a bank robbery or child kidnapping. However, the half-dozen public servants were only there to extort money from a child for not wearing a helmet.
During the standoff, the family knew that their child was going to be kidnapped by police, so they initially refused to hand him over. After several threats, however, the boy would eventually come outside.
The officers blatantly lied to the family, saying only that they wanted him to come outside to receive his citation for no helmet. But after walking out, he’s immediately placed in cuffs and put into a patrol car.
I counted 8 cops there, to arrest one 16 year old kid, for riding a bicycle without a helmet. WTH ???
If the SHTF, those cops are going to be in deep shit !!! I know of situations where one SP Trooper stood up to 10 bikers. Those guys in the video are a bunch of pussies. they were desperate to show their " authority "
Who was that kid? Did he have a rap sheet? Did he have a warrant out? Was he a suspect in a crime? Was he an illegal? Was he a terrorist? Did he have guns in the house?
You have no idea. But he did run from the police, so something's going on, right? Would you run from the police for a stupid helmet violation?
" Who was that kid? Did he have a rap sheet? Did he have a warrant out? Was he a suspect in a crime? Was he an illegal? Was he a terrorist? Did he have guns in the house?
You have no idea. "
" You have no idea. "
And neither do you.
My SP friends would laugh at you, and tell you to stick to tending to expired meters, and leave the policing to adults !!
Correct. But I would error on the side of caution, sending multiple officers. You would error on the side of stupidity, and assume he was a sweet, innocent child.
Not at all. I would concentrate my efforts towards actual criminals, not chasing some kid for a dinky " helmet violation ", easy pickings for wussies. I can just imagine you talking to the shift commander. He asks you where you were while in your precinct there were four armed robbery's, two hit & runs, one of which was a fatality, 4 B & E's, 4 stolen cars. " Well Dumb Ass, where & what were you dumb shits doing ?"
You then reply, " Well gee Captain, we caught this punk and wrote him a couple tickets "
Captain " For What ?"
Misterwhite: " He was riding a bicycle without a helmet "
Captain: " "You are the dumbest M Fer here" Did you really go through the academy ?" " Tell you what dipshit, your on Meter Maid duty, until you retire. Turn in your service sidearm, you don't need it!!! "
" The suspect ran for no reason, leading us to believe he was hiding something. For all we knew he could have recently murdered someone.
You wouldn't want us to simply let him go without investigating, would you ... Captain? "
Captain: Well, DID he murder anyone ? Since you didn't charge him with murder, apparently he did not ! And after this big line of shit from you, the only charge you could use was "running " and the biggie " not wearing a helmet ". Boy, you think your just a regular Elliot Ness, LOL.
Your just rattling off a pile of BS to TRY to cover your sorry ass. You failed.
While you were running down this new " John Dillinger ", simply for an easy chicken shit "No Helmet " citation, your precinct had other crimes which rate a much higher priority towards public safety. For example, the 87 year old woman that got mugged for her SS Check while you and your 7 buddies were playing Johnny "Bad Ass" with that kid for no helmet. Yeah, you and those dumb shits stopped a regular crime wave. /sarc I am sure the old lady will think your sense of priorities is fucked up !!!!! Turns out she is the Chief's Aunt. You can apologize to her when she gets out of the hospital.
Oh, and here is a message to you from the Chief:
The Chief : "Whitey, you are one dumb fuck. You are not only an embarrassment to yourself, you are an embarrassment to the Department, and to the citizens of this city !! You contribute nothing to reducing crime in our city. Forget the meter maid assignment. You are not smart enough to handle that !! Today, you will immediately turn in all Department equipment / uniforms in your possession to the Department Supply Sergeant. You will then report to the city garage. From then on you will spend the rest of your career washing city garbage trucks. Never again will you wear a City Police Uniform. Also, your salary will be adjusted to be commensurate with your new position. " S/The Chief
Captain: Well, DID he murder anyone ? Since you didn't charge him with murder, apparently he did not !
Well, Captain, how were we supposed to know that at the time? He ran. That's suspicious behavior. Perhaps we should check that out. If he's clean we let him go.
"For example, the 87 year old woman that got mugged for her SS Check while you and your 7 buddies were playing Johnny "Bad Ass" with that kid for no helmet."
Well, DID she get mugged? Since the article made no mention of that, apparently she did not!
