Police Atrocities Define the Bush Police State






The real criminals are in the White House


Jack booted thugs can now arrest you without a warrant, without “probable cause” or evidence that you might have committed a crime. Law abiding Americans are victimized by cops gone wild, sadistic hot dogs, mental midgets and Nazi wannabes. They are inspired by the atmosphere of fear and hate. Police atrocities are to be expected.


The real criminals are in the White House and, so far, they have escaped charges and justice. There is probable cause to try Bush himself for capital crimes –but he is free while millions are brutalized without charges, trial or representation. Now under Bush, jackbooted thugs don’t even bother accusing you of a crime. You can be throw in jail upon whim. You don’t get to make a phone call. You don’t get to call your lawyer. You don’t get to call your wife or husband. And you don’t get visitors.


These days –who cares if you are innocent? Bush has assumed the power to ‘define’ you as a terrorist. Conceivably, you could be locked up in one of Bush’s hell-holes for the rest of your life. You may never get your day in court. But if you dare to protest that you are an American citizen, you risk getting kicked in the balls, tasered, strip searched and beaten. In Houston, in the seventies, a young Hispanic male was accused of being rowdy in a bar. He was never charged. Rather, Houston cops took him to a secluded part of Buffalo Bayou, beat the crap out of him, and thew him into Buffalo Bayou where he drowned. Big Brother Bush spies on you. As early as 2002, Bush secretly ordered the National Security Agency (NSA) to monitor, intercept, and keep records on international phone calls and emails. They have simply declared they don’t need court orders, they don’t need probable cause, they don’t need authorization, they don’t even need ‘reasonable suspicion’, Gen. Michael Hayden’s fictitious, delusional and non-existent standard. The Constitution requires ‘probable cause’ but you can forget about that in Bush’s dictatorship. As Bush himself put it: “Stop throwing up the Constitution to me. It’s just a Goddamned piece of paper” [See: A Goddamned Piece of Paper!]

If you’ve ever publicly opposed Bush’s war of naked aggression in Iraq, you can bet you’re in NSA’s database, called, typically of these mentally constipated authoritarians, TALON! How cute! This practice most certainly goes far beyond Nixon’s ‘enemies list’, a sophomoric exercise typical of idiots who take themselves entirely too seriously. No –Bush’s database, methods, scope and ruthlessness plops us in Orwellian territory without a Junior Wood Chucks guidebook. In the vernacular, we’re fucked! The government has declared war upon us. In the words of Che Guevara “…the peace is already considered to be broken.” Let’s put it another way. The revolution was begun when George W. Bush declared war upon the people of the United States. War protesters, naturally, were the first to wind up in Big Bro’s TALON, or database, or, to use the lingo of Bush and Bush-head: al Qaeda, literally, ‘the base’. There you have it. Bush can merely define you as an ‘enemy combatant’ and your name winds up on his list of ‘terrorists’. A ‘terrorist’ is anyone who opposes George W. Bush, tyrant for whom the Constitution is just a “…Goddamned piece of paper!”


Don’t call him "dude" or he may "kill you" Is it a man? Is it a dude? No, it’s officer Rivieri of the Baltimore Police Department who is the latest small membered thug cop to believe that it is his duty to go around bullying and wrestling discipline into innocent children. Unfortunately for this PC podge, he is also the latest cop caught on camera and made famous by Youtube. On the video, the officer, Salvatore Rivieri, puts the boy in a headlock, pushes him to the ground, questions his upbringing, threatens to "smack" him and repeatedly accuses the youngster of showing disrespect because the youth refers to the officer as "man" and "dude." reports the Baltimore Sun.

In free societies, police serve and protect; they do not demand obeisance and they most certainly are accorded respect when it is rightfully earned by service and duty. The four stages of the evolution of a police state are in evidence in the US, where the police have gotten it the wrong way ’round.

  1. Shut down media coverage after they steal an election
  2. Serve the central government instead of serving the citizens
  3. Enforce the policies of the central government instead of responding primarily to criminal misdeeds
  4. Spy on and intimidate citizens

Survival hints that might help keep you alive in the Bush/GOP society of fear and thuggery:

  • Never go out at night alone; always bring a witness!
  • Never go out in the daytime alone!
  • Never go anywhere unless you have back-up following you at 20 paces or so with a camcorder so that when you are assaulted or murdered, there will be a record of it!
  • When COPS are near, try your best to look like a Republican i.e, look stupid!
  • Don’t look ‘black’ even if you are white; don’t ever say ‘bro!
  • Carry a copy of the Wall St Journal or the Washington Times but don’t use it to wrap a cod. It could be mistaken for a .357 with gills.

Alas, it was Bertrand Russell who foresaw so many issues that now shape our lives, issues contributing to the growing feeling that we, as individuals, now count for very little in the Bush/Neocon/GOP vision of global domination and endless world wars. Whenever the idea that individuals count for little takes hold, brutality against the individual is to be expected.

"Many people would sooner die than think. In fact they do.""I think the subject which will be of most importance politically is mass psychology…. Its importance has been enormously increased by the growth of modern methods of propaganda. Of these the most influential is what is called ‘education.’ Religion plays a part, though a diminishing one; the press, the cinema, and the radio play an increasing part…. It may be hoped that in time anybody will be able to persuade anybody of anything if he can catch the patient young and is provided by the State with money and equipment.""Although this science will be diligently studied, it will be rigidly confined to the governing class. The populace will not be allowed to know how its convictions were generated. When the technique has been perfected, every government that has been in charge of education for a generation will be able to control its subjects securely without the need of armies or policemen."

–Bertrand Russell, "The Impact of Science on Society", Life under the World State 1953

FBI Deputizes Private Contractors With Extraordinary Powers, Including ‘Shoot to Kill’

The FBI has a new set of eyes and ears, and they’re being told to protect their infrastructure at any cost. They can even kill without repercussion.Today, more than 23,000 representatives of private industry are working quietly with the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security. The members of this rapidly growing group, called InfraGard, receive secret warnings of terrorist threats before the public does — and, at least on one occasion, before elected officials. In return, they provide information to the government, which alarms the ACLU. But there may be more to it than that. One business executive, who showed me his InfraGard card, told me they have permission to "shoot to kill" in the event of martial law. InfraGard is "a child of the FBI," says Michael Hershman, the chairman of the advisory board of the InfraGard National Members Alliance and CEO of the Fairfax Group, an international consulting firm.
