It's not just in the middle east, it's what "we" do here too... The brutality is endemic to the system, every action of Cop Meets Citizen, here, or abroad, is taken under the assumption that the Citizen is the enemy, and must be subdued, brought under "our" control. Whether a citizen in his home or a whole nation. This from chat: 23:58listening to the scanner... Pigs are fixin' to jump into an apartment, armored up... 23:58The dispatcher said that "last time we had to tase him". 23:59 and that nobody in the house likes cops (the CSPD and EP Co Sheriff refer to that as a B.O.L.O "Be On the Look Out") 23:59 Imagine that, a gang of uniformed thugs holds somebody down, beating him and torturing him, in front of his family, and they wonder why nobody likes them. 00:00 Actually they DO know, but they think their guns and gang will keep anybody from doing any retaliation, just like their foreign policy. 00:01Oderint dum Metuant, let them hate us as long as they fear us. 00:02Caligula and Nero's motto. 00:02 What wonderful people they worship as heroes!! And they want to export that kind of "freedom" everywhere in the world. Freedom to obey. Then they get all weepy and wringing their hands when people fight back. Like the famous line from War and Peace: "why, they're shooting at me... ME, who everybody loves!" But wait... there's MORE... Here's an update on that police call... something extra special... You're gonna love this. The dispatcher was sending in the cavalry, armed and loaded for a massive fight..00:46 The person they had tasered and had the advisory about...00:46 was the man in Apartment B.00:47 And the call they were responding to was in Apartment A.00:47 Across the complex from each other. How many times have similar "oopsies" happened in Afghanistan and Iraq? Using similar techniques, technologies and the cops are recruited straight out of the military. What kind of odds does that make that Drone Strikes are even targeted at the right addresses, the right towns even? What proof or even evidence do we have that the Military Intelligence services, operating in foreign lands where, unlike their "para-civilian" stormtroopers here, they haven't had the "suspected" terrorists in custody, haven't interviewed them, and don't have any experience of having been physically at the address of the people they're killing? Wikileaks has answers, that's why Wikileaks is under attack from the piggoes.

Six year-old on No-Fly List, 86 year-old granny tased in bed. Some “Freedom.”
Detentions without trials, evidence, warrants,... just the faceless and nameless assertion of some Torture Freak Pervert in the State Department or Homeland Security. Doesn't matter about National Sovereignty since the only National Sovereignty the Torture Freaks recognize is their own. Not the sovereignty of the American People either, just the nameless and faceless pukes who are too cowardly to put their names behind their actions in DHS and FBI and CIA and State Department and Department of "defense". Like the anonymous Coward Pukes who direct the Predator Drones. But this is the "Freedom" we're exporting to the entire world. The "Freedom" to bow before our corporate masters, people here and people abroad alike, are to bow to the so-called "free" market and their enforcers. If we don't bow to the Military-Facist-Police State stormtroopers they're entitled to use any level of force they deem necessary to force compliance. Some "Freedom". Petraeus is vowing to continue exporting that "Freedom" and jamming it down the throats of the people of Afghanistan, at gunpoint, for years, decades, generations to come. Mighty "White" of him. The 6 year old girl is named Alyssa Thomas. It's so absurd even Fox News is OUTRAGED! about it. They weren't similarly OUTRAGED against the Flying Imams being denied the right to travel, or the two cases of the Flying Rabbis who made international news for praying, in Hebrew, on flights. If this signals a change of heart on their part, and they're willing to apologize for their almost two decades of Racist slanted "journalism" that directly contributed to the current situation, and perhaps make amends in some way... Then that would be a case of Good On Them. I don't think that will happen, by the way. They'll spin away any connection they had with the No-Fly List, the so-called "Patriot" Act, any War Crimes they encouraged in the Global War On Civilization, crimes they encouraged in One-man Militia (or even bigger militia like the Minutemen) like the murder of Briseña Flores committed under the influence of Fox and Friends anti-American Hate Speech, the murders at the Unitarian Universalist Church in Knoxville Tennessee, again at their urging but they'll deny it to the hilt... unless they can find some way to spin pointing a shotgun at children in church to be a "good" thing... They spin so much their name should be Dreedle News. But, gentle readers, and even the paid-to-troll readers, remember these incidents when they're exhorting us to exalt the "Heroes" who are spreading that "Freedom" globally. Remember that it's "Freedom" to lick the boots of the Conquering Crusaders or DIE! (or be sent to the Torture Chambers) Or like the very elderly and disabled grandmother in El Reno, Oklahoma in much pain, on oxygen and was apparently too weak to get up and offer to lick the Pigs' Jackboots for them so they tasered her in her bed. Jun 25, 2010 ... EL RENO — Police officers here are being sued for using a Taser last December to ... You gotta love
