Bloods and Crips alliance in plot to kill cops discovered in drug and gun ring takedown
New York Daily News ^ | 04/17/10 | Rocco Parascandola

massive gang takedown in Queens uncovered a rare alliance between Bloods and Crips and a ruthless plot to assassinate cops, authorities said Friday.

The revelations came as law enforcement unveiled the chilling results of long-running "Operation Under Siege" - 104 suspects, dozens of guns, two slayings and piles of drugs and cash.

The sprawling case was built on wiretaps - including recordings of gang associate Keith Livingston, who blabbed about plans to protect his drug turf by killing cops on patrol.

"He intended to position himself on rooftops and shoot police officers who were compromising his business in Far Rockaway and South Jamaica," Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said.

"Before his deadly plans could be carried out, detectives arrested him and seized a defaced 9-mm. Hi-Point rifle, among other weapons."

We ought to let the Hutaree go if they promise to leave the police alone and take down this new Blood-Crip venture instead.

There should be an open season for gang affiliates. And free ammo.

Well I do have to say, I never though I’d see a day when they had a sort of ‘alliance’.

Apparently this guy is too stupid to realize what happens when you shoot a cop or two. The other cops don't take it kindly. Interference with his business would be the least of his problems.

We had a guy here in FL who ambushed a couple cops, then hid in the woods for several days.

When he sprand to his feet and tried to run, the cops shot him 67 times.

Out of town journo asked why they shot him 67 times. Local sherrif, with perfectly straight face said, "We ran out of ammo."

You mean, we don’t need hundreds+ DHS and FBI to go in and take them all out on a weekend, it’s just a handful of “militia” members that warrant that when “Plotting to kill cops” ?

Awww, I didn’t get to your post, and you brought it up before me. Darn... I thought no one had addressed it yet.

Then again, the Hutaree seems to have been easy targets for a massive number of LEO’s to get weekend overtime. Oh brother, [stimulus] stimulation and all...

Better think again. Blood’s, Crip’s, evern MS-13 are showing up throughout the ranks of the enlisted. Their getting trained by Uncle Sam and coming out as lethal gang bangers. Open secret in the military and has been going on for years..

Two thoughts:

1) Obama's domestic "police" force already trained, ready and willing to do ANYTHING.

2) The "Wizards of the Universe" who tried to cram Amnesty down our throats not too long ago voted AGAINST the Cornyn amendment for a "permanent bar for gang members, terrorists, and other criminals" that would have kept them out of the path to full citizenship. Why?

There were 10 Republicans who voted against the amendment: Craig, Domenici, GRAHAM, Hagel, KYL, Lugar, Martinez, McCAIN, Spector, Voinovich. The ones still around need to explain why they WANTED "gang members, terrorists, and other criminals" on the path to citizenship. Are they stupid or are they "on board" for something incredibly anti-American?
