New York, NY—Selling
cigarettes on the street cost a man his life.
Think about it for a moment.
Trying to make a meager living in a miserable economy by selling a legal
product deserves death now in New York.
That’s precisely what
happened to an obviously overweight (350 lbs.) and unhealthy man last
week. A squad of cops investigating this
tax transgression approached Eric Garner. Garner actually begged the cops to
leave him alone. Soon Garner began to
shun the cops and resist being handcuffed and the cops piled on him. All too quickly, Garner was dead.
Was it the long banned
chokehold? I don’t think so. I suspect positional asphyxia was the actual cause
of death. Does it really make any
difference how they killed him? Garner
was killed not by policemen in the true sense of that noble occupation but a
gang of government extortionists.
This was not about anything
more than the attempted evasion of an outrageous tax on a legal product that millions
consume in America.
Our greedy politicians expand
their power and the government monster by overtaxing anything they can. We all know that this was about money rather
than evil, violence or simple public safety.
Cops used to be there to
protect and help us from evil. They all
signed up to help their fellow man, not to become extortionists. However politicians changed the game decades
ago by feeding the government monster with fines for minor offenses.
Along the way our politicians
stayed wide-awake nights dreaming of the creation new petty offenses and
raising the fines on the ones already on the books. They all need to bribe contractors for crap
we don’t need for reelection campaigns.
That takes money and new creative ways of taking it from the public.
Parking enforcement and
meters led the extortion parade. Today unconstitutional
Photo traffic enforcement has provided billions of illicit dollars to local
governments.
Most Americans don’t have a
clue that they only way to convict people with photo enforcement and collect
fines flagrantly violates our Sixth Amendment rights to confront and cross-examine
witnesses against us.
Where there is no live
witness to a transgression courts must rely on long banned hearsay testimony to
admit photo and computer data evidence into court. You can’t cross-examine and ask the
photograph about errors or equipment malfunctions. Was the equipment actually tampered with to
make it appear there was a violation by greedy equipment manufacturers selling
government on this garbage?
The whores in local politics
appoint the judges and they know they better side with those that feed
them. Again, those sworn to defend it
have trashed our Constitution.
You can of course appeal the
fines to higher courts where the judges owe nothing to local politicians. However that red light ticket conviction will
cost as much as a house to appeal to your state Supreme Court and a couple of
million more to get a shot at the U.S. Supreme Court.
The cost of court appeals
denies all of us justice facilitating the tyranny of or politicians. If we somehow had the money it still takes
decades for these cases to be litigated and decided by the courts. It’s truly a case of justice both denied and
delayed.
The only real remedy is
through unimaginable self-help by violent revolution. The Second Amendment was designed to that we
the people would have arms parity with the government. We’ve allowed the government to disarm the
population and any arms we do have are not remotely comparable to those military
grade arms.
Today Americans could not
stop a rogue President much better than Germany or Russia could stop Adolf Hitler or Josef Stalin.
As long as it’s only the
government breaking the law that’s seems okay with today’s Americans.
Politicians know Americans
cannot possibly afford to seek justice against rogue politicians and they
expect us all to simply shrug off the tyranny.
Our forefathers would have simply found and killed all these
bastards.
How soon we forget that we
revolted against the British over a 3% tax on tea. Have we forgotten that Americans began to
kill those that dare extort from them?
Have they forgotten that they became free of their corrupt oppressors by
chasing the ones that survived back to the UK?
Cops are not nor should they
be they ever become hated tax collectors.
However the Communists and Socialists we’ve elected have a different
idea and like in every totalitarian society the cops are never on the side of
the population.
The very reason we demanded
our politicians and public officials take an oath to the Constitution was to
prevent what we’ve allowed our nation to become.
We now have a full-blown
police state. We have more people
imprisoned per capita than any other nation on earth that proves the point.
Slowly they’ve promoted the
snitch system where our neighbors and children can be rewarded to turning us in
to the authorities.
It’s only a matter of time
before the death penalty will be used against anyone criticizing politicians or
government tyranny. They of course will
claim this is necessary for public safety and a large percentage of the
population will actually believe it.
Those that love the idea of
giving politicians to power of the death penalty need to rethink their
position.
We better get used to the
idea of many more killings like Eric Garner’s.
That’s even if they prosecute those NYPD officers for excessive
force. The cops are no longer here for
public safety but simple extortion.
