Unlike you, I actually lived in Russia for a couple of years at the height of the Cold War, with the KGB in evidence everywhere. I know the difference between that society and ours, and it’s a huge one.

Well it’s quite obvious you brought the KGB mentality with you. Please go back.

This is sick! This guy needs to be locked up.

My husband and I always laugh at the signs in Texas State Parks. There are signs telling you you can’t do anything so we always say No Spitting No Sh*tting No Having Fun when you are in a TX state park.

On a conceptual, theoretical level you make many excellent points.

You are unlikely to get any disagreement from me until you start with tactical analysis.

Keep up the good work.

Best regards

P.S. If you’re exceeding your Constitutional authority, and you even pull a gun on an unarmed citizen, you’ll go away for a very long time.

You REALLY need your meds!

There is no need to read minds. All I or anyone else has to do is read the newspapers... or these days, the internet.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep! "All I need to know is what I read on the Internet."

Forgive the rest of us if we place greater credence on decisions made in a court of law after a trial, where both sides could present evidence.

Actually, I think he expects cops to levitate guns out of their hands - or call down phaser beams from the black helicopters.

LOL. Thanks for the laughs. I love it when a lunatic sounds off.

"Just for my curiosity, where did you form your opinion of LE?"

1) Because they call themselves law enfocement... rather than rights enforcement... as the Constitution says they should be.

2) Because they care only about enforcing laws, many of which violate the Constitution... which they swore to uphold... which they seem to care nothing about.

3) Because I know what the Constitution says (which they apparently don't... nor do they even care... which is the really scary part).

4) Because they serve corrupt political leaders rather than the people.

5) Because they are mercenaries helping corrupt politicians destroy liberty and freedom in America, slowly turning America into a police state... not unlike Russia.

6) Because, more often than not, their mentalities are identical to the KGB mentality.

7) Because they place little or no value on human life... as GovernmentShrinker so eloquently pointed out with this comment:

"The guy was shot twice, I’ll assume that showed some restraint (vs 6 or 15 rounds to the now-dead citizen."

Ad hominem attack is the hallmark of ignorance.

Hey, I think I just created a tagline!

(It also means you lost the debate)

BTW, if you need someone to explain what “ad hominem” means, let me know. I’ll be happy to.

"...until you start with tactical analysis."

The Constitution doesn't bend to fit tactics.

Tactics bend to fit the Constitution... at least they should... but they currently don't

... which doesn't seem to bother law enforcement people at all.

Thanks for the cudos.

One more:

8) Because they spend the majority of their time as hired guns helping their corrupt money-crazed masters rob and plunder the people... under the color of law.

10) Because they’ve sold out their fellow citizens for a paycheck.

HAHAHA. I don’t debate fools, lunatics or convicts. It’s a waste of time. You have a nice day, now.
By the way, seeing how you can read minds you should know if I comprehend “ad hominem”.
Again, thanks for the laughs. It’s been great.

I have no doubt that a constituional view sounds like lunacy to you.

There it is folks, living proof that law enforcement people care nothing about the Constitution. They believe they have unlimited authority to violate people’s rights... and gun people down when it suits them.

Like I said, they are mercenaries, hired guns for government oppression.

My last encounter with LEO still gives me the shivers. I was parked, after dark, in a well lit parking lot of a public park where the municipality had deployed glass recycling bins. I was recycling bottles when I was approached by a young officer who was holding his hand on his gun, demanding to know what I was doing there. I told him politely and with a straight face that I was recycling some bottles. He told me that I couldn’t be there after dark - I said I didn’t realize that, (the park is a venue for many concerts, fireworks, and other occasions that last until well after dark). "It's right on the sign!" said he. Luckily, he let me go on my way, peacefully.

Paranoia with a gun.
