Strapped with an assault rifle, a Los Angeles sheriff’s deputy stormed up to a woman recording from a residential sidewalk, snatching the camera from her hands and sending it smashing to the pavement before kicking it towards her in a shocking display of rage.
The deputy then walked off with a group of other deputies who appeared to be part of the SWAT team.
The story is new, but it appears this was an operation of at least two agencies to include the LA sheriff and US marshals.
My favorite part was when one of the 'good cops' stepped in and stopped the miscreant from violating the civil rights of a law-abiding citizen. My second favorite part will be watching my liberty-minded fellow Liveleakers tearing a new asshole out of any bootlicker who even tries to defend this most recent routine display of fascism by yet another American cop.

The footage, filmed in South Gate, California shows a woman filming a group of United States Marshals on a sidewalk using her cell phone. “I have a right to be here, you need to stay away” the woman is heard telling the officers, presumably explaining why she was filming them. She is also heard to say “I have a right as a citizen.” One of the officers, holding an assault rifle, then slowly walks towards the woman, before charging at her, and grabbing at the phone. The phone hits the ground with a smashing sound, and the officer kicks it aggressively at the woman, before turning away and leaving the scene. The person filming the video from across the street is heard gasping in shock at the thug cop’s actions, as the woman notices and asks “did you record that?” There are no further details on the video at this time. The footage highlights the attitude police generally have to citizens recording them. Every day there are stories of police threatening and assaulting lawful Americans who hold them accountable by exercising their Constitutional right to film in public. These cops showed up in what is clearly a well to do neighborhood, in an unmarked vehicle, armed with assault rifles. The woman filming them was clearly not impeding their activity. The attack on her by the officer constitutes an assault. The South Gate Police Department can be reached at (323) 563-9500, while the US Marshals Service, LA Police Department, LA Sheriff’s Department, and the California Department of Justice can be contacted at (213) 894-2485.
What's the phone number for the woman? To be fair, shouldn't you be listing that also or is she the only one with a right to privacy?
What's she yakkin' about while she's recording?
What's the phone number for the woman? To be fair, shouldn't you be listing that also or is she the only one with a right to privacy? A publicly funded office building has easily available telephone numbers. You equating the two is apples and oranges, but you knew that.
I heard Walmart is having a big sale on brown shirts. Better get there now.
Its a shame, good video footage of a definite criminal mischief on the officers part... but the writer of the article felt the need to yellow the article with low class penmanship. Hopefully the officer is charged and removed from the force.

What's the phone number for the woman? ---- To be fair, shouldn't you be listing that also or is she the only one with a right to privacy? ---- misterwhite To be fair? How weird can misterwhite get? Yes Paulsen, she is INDEED "the only one with a right to privacy". Public agencies do NOT have a privacy right. [duh]
To be fair, shouldn't you be listing that also or is she the only one with a right to privacy? Are you saying that citizens do not have the right to call their elected officials and voice their grievances? And why would anyone other than threatening cops want to call the woman whose private property was destroyed by a badged thug in a psychotic rage ?
Well, I'd like to call her. What's her number? You listed the other ones. Where's hers?
Exactly. If people want to call, the number is easy enough to find. Yet Deckard felt it necessary to list their numbers. I'm simply asking him to include everyone involved. To, you know, be fair.
And just what would you do with it - threaten her? Harass her for daring to exercise her First Amendment rights? Buy her a new phone? You seem to be under the delusion that our "public servants" should not be bothered with complaints. The lady is a private citizen, don't you get that?
Ah. You think I work for UPS?
Wow! Are you just as concerned about what people will do with the other numbers you posted? "The lady is a private citizen, don't you get that?" She was. But she's not anymore, now is she? So I'd like to talk with her.
Ah. You think I work for UPS? ---- misterwhite Misterwhite thinks he could get a job delivering goods for a respected company? No way. They weed out such fanatics in their hiring tests.
No way. They weed out such fanatics in their hiring tests. You honestly think that during the same like interviews with UPS, if you stated your opinions on drugs, and Mr White stated his, you'd have a better chance than Mr. White? lol

Gee paulsen, most people believe that we have the right to contact public officials. Why are you such a fascist? "The lady is a private citizen, don't you get that?" She was. But she's not anymore, now is she? Uh - yes, she still is a PRIVATE citizen.
No way. They weed out such fanatics in their hiring tests. He could always become a cop - he seems to have the mindset for that, and from what I've seen, they don't have very high standards.
Misterwhite thinks he could get a job delivering goods for a respected company? No way. They weed out such fanatics in their hiring tests. I honestly think that in such an interview, I would come across as a normal citizen, one UPS would hire, -- and misterwhite would blow the interview by exposing himself as a wiseass fanatic.
How exactly do the South Gate Police Department, the US Marshals Service, LA Police Department, LA Sheriff’s Department, and California Dept of Justice have a right to privacy?
Good question.. And good luck in getting a rational reply.
This has become downright comedic. Now you guys are debating whether UPS would hire any of you. When I suggested misterwhite swing past Walmart to pick up some brown shirts, I wasn't talking about working for UPS. LOL
And my reply at #14, mentioned the SA, the nazi brownshirts. --- So?
I'm just saying UPS has nothing to do with it.
So grandiose and I had a little fun with the UPS/brownshirted idiocy posted by Paulsen. Sorry for the frivolity.
But ... but ... aren't you just as concerned about what people might say to them? "Uh - yes, she still is a PRIVATE citizen." You mean she now wants to hide from her actions.
I didn't ask that their phone numbers be suppressed. I asked for her number to be posted also. If she insists on being part of the police action, let's have her phone number, too.
Care to rephrase, Wiley?
Post the phone numbers of every cop and fed in the video first. Let's have their personal cell phone numbers before asking for the victim's phone number. Agree?
I don't need theirs. I need hers. You see, the cops were arresting me, and now my face is all over the Internet because of her. Turns out it was a mistake because the name was spelled wrong on the arrest warrant. Now, where's MY right to privacy? How do I undo what SHE did? How do I explain HER actions to my friends, my family, and my co-workers? So, where's her number? (The above is hypothetical. But it could easily happen.)
Why? You confused? She voluntarily made herself part of a public event. I don't believe she deserves any more privacy than the other participants.
Ohhhhhhhh. You meant Nazi shirts? Walmart carries Nazi shirts? Good quality?
On youtube with some commentary. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZKK8IqCKxKE U S Marshals reviewing video of deputy grabbing California woman's phone Published on Apr 21, 2015 The U.S. Marshals Service said Tuesday that it's reviewing a video that shows a deputy grab a woman's cellphone from her hands, smashing it to the floor. In the 53-second video posted on YouTube on Sunday, a woman on the sidewalk appears to be filming officers with her cellphone and making comments when a deputy U.S. Marshal charges at her. The video was spotted by a South Gate police officer because its caption mentioned the department, and an investigation ensued, Capt. Darren Arakawa said. Comments Before this technology was available, the cops never, ever did anything bad. They never used unnecessary or excessive violence; they never filed false reports or lied under oath. These cameras are responsible for bringing out the worst in them. :-) MICHAEL L HAYS No South Gate police were involved in the incident, which has generated dozens of phone calls and email complaints to him and the department's chief from across the United States, Arakawa said. His officers were securing the area Sunday for an ongoing taskforce operation related to the Mongols Motorcycle Club, he said. There was no complaint initiated by the woman involved to police, Arakawa said. But he noted "we have an obligation to look at it, and that's exactly what we did." "We really want to put it out there, because we have to explain to people, to residents, that this wasn't a police officer," Arakawa said. "We keep getting these emails suggesting that we're corrupt. I think it's an isolated incident that does justify some sort of investigation." In an interview with the Los Angeles Times, Beatriz Paez, 34, said she feared for her life during the confrontation. She said she was out on a stroll Sunday afternoon when she came upon what appeared to be a massive federal operation — a stretch of street was blocked off and up to 10 people were on their stomachs with their hands on their heads. She took out her cellphone and began filming. But the men wearing tactical vests that read "police" on the back noticed and started backing up to obscure her view. The men stood with their backs to her and she made comments including "You need to stay away from me, I don't feel safe with you closer to me." Paez said the deputy marshal who ultimately charged her grabbed the phone from her hand and smashed it to the ground — he then kicked a plastic cup down the street that she'd dropped in the struggle. The phone's screen is shattered and doesn't work, according to her attorney Colleen Flynn, but they will be trying to recover Paez's video from the phone's chip. The U.S. Marshals service declined to comment further on the video aside from confirming in a statement that their deputy was involved and that the matter was under review. Hector Villagra, executive director of the ACLU of Southern California, said he was "deeply disturbed" by the video. "There is no situation in which an officer can intentionally grab and destroy a camera being used to lawfully record law enforcement," Villagra said. "The officer's conduct is a blatant and deliberate violation of the Constitution and his duties as an officer to abide by the law."

The people of South Gate need to hire the Mongols to protect them from the police and .gov thugs.
It's all because Deckard posted their phone number here and LF made its fury heard! LOL
Didn't realize that LF had that big of an audience.
You're too modest. : )
No, Idiot. It's increasingly self-evident you lack common sense like that required to recognize the difference between the phone numbers for public entities and private citizens. There's no confusion about that.
Well, I'd like to call her. What's her number? You listed the other ones. Where's hers? Your buddy on the film clearly destroyed the one she had. How are you supposed to violate her right to privacy when she no longer has a functioning cell phone? By the way, her number is (323)867-5309. I pulled it from one of those anti-privacy websites, www.lapdonline.org. Maybe she received one of those new ObamaSmartphones?
