Ridiculous and unacceptable. The failed drug war is a war on you.

Sorry to say it mysterio but conservatives for decades built the WOD, empowered, funded, and supported the Police State we live in today. I am a fiscal conservative but have always been wary of how ready and willing many conservatives are to control the behavior of other people. By controlling the behavior of other people I mean that if you go to your city councilman and demand a new law to for instance ensure that every dog has an adequate water dish, that law will be enforced by an armed city employee at the point of a gun. So, 30-40 years of effort have gone into building this wonderful police state we live in, and it has been birthed by law and order republicans. Now, I drive the 5 min. to my local grocer and the median at the first intersection is crawling with 20-30 cops shining flashlights into my car. So, we live in a police state, and nobody should be surprised if somebody shoots a dog or two too bad, just the price to be paid for an orderly society. So if you are a law and order republican, and you know who you (not accusing you mysterio), don’t complain because you built this. If you are a government employee with a badge and a gun, an armed union thug, and you know who you are, you have spent a career building and supporting this kind of stuff.

The solution is to vote down every bond issue that funds Police Fire. You also call the city manager every time you see them applying for Federal grant monies for new police and police cars and ask them not too. My city just applied for a new federal grant to hire police officers. I can’t figure out why... I just saw 30 of them crowding an intersection in front of Wal-mart pulling over momma in her mini van on her way to buy groceries... cause she didn’t have the right tax stamp, cause one of the kids had unbuckled his seat belt, cause, cause cause.

It always has been and it always will be.

I can't even post what I'm thinking about the cops who pulled the trigger.
