He was just a nigger with a roach

It ain't as if Ramarley Graham was a REAL American, he wasn't white, he wasn't middle-aged, he wasn't rich, so as far as most New Yorkers are concerned he's just another nigger executed by the NYPD for the crime of being young, black, and havin' a marijuana cigarette, nothing more than a cockroach exterminated and good riddance. Human? Naw, niggers are just dumb monkeys, they ain't human, right?

But you know how that goes. It's the NYPD. You know, the guys who go 'round wearin' t-shirts that say Kill'em All and let God Sort'em Out. And apparently the majority of New Yorkers are fine with that, as long as it ain't middle-class white people or rich people being murdered by the NYPD. So it goes.

  1. And outside of the NYC area, nobody is paying attention. Just another Black kid who ran from the cops and got gunned down. The cops also detained his grandmother for over seven hours, wouldn't let her have her heart medication.

    They are little more than thugs with guns and the de facto legal right to kill anybody who displeases them.

  2. Correct and middle America could give a shit. These people scare me they really do. They shoot many times at will. The Denver/metro cops are notorious shooters as well. Almost daily along the front range badges shoot people who don't have to be shot. Not going to watch it happen without speaking out.

  3. Yeppers. And then the cops whine that minority communities are "hostile" to them and refuse to cooperate with their investigations? Uhm, if you were killing my children I wouldn't exactly greet you with tea and crumpets either, yo.

    But what rankles me most is that most Americans are apparently *happy* with the notion of cops as judge, jury, and executioner. They apparently *want* to live in police state where anybody can be executed at any time for any thing that is deemed to be a crime, no matter how minor. I swear, if the CHP started executing people on the spot for the crime of illegally driving in the carpool lane during rush hour w/o a passenger, there's a sizable percentage of people who would *cheer*.

    And the religious right whines that America has lost its moral compass, then focus on *gay marriage*? They actually think a coupla gay folks kissin' is more important to worry about than the increasing brutality and lack of empathy of the American public? Dude. Sick. Sick sick sick. Just sayin'.

  4. Regarding illegal use of an HOV lane, I'm not sure I'd agree with capital punishment, but I sure would like to see the cops out there handing out tickets at a grand a piece. Of course, I don't know about California, but I'm always seeing CT state police cars -- with one trooper -- zipping down the HOV at 85-90 (as opposed to the 75-80 they do in the non-HOV lanes).

  5. I don't give a shit what anyone in N.Y.C. is doing. Kill some of the cops for all I care.

  6. NYC is just like Texas. Most of the rest of the country would cheer if they did secede from the U.S.

  7. Illegal use of the HOV Lane punishment is easy, make a new law.

    A person who is stopped for illegal use of the HOV Lane by having less than the required number of occupants of their vehicle shall be punished by their choice of:

    1) Installation of a GPS tracking unit on the roof of their vehicle. Such a device shall be 2' square, with a flashing light and a sign that says "I'm too dumb to read". The device shall be unremovable except at designated parking areas along the stretch of HOV lanes, where removal will be performed after the vehicle has been parked for 30 minutes.

    or

    2) The shooting of the sidewall of one of their tires.

    Note: Persons claiming an emergency will be escorted to their "destination". If, at that point, their emergency cannot be verified, all of their vehicles tires sidewalls shall be shot.

    Note 2: If the state limits motorcycle access to HOV Lanes, they shall create a sign device for motorcycle violators with similar consequencies.

  8. New York City is an awesome city. Its police department, unfortunately, is *not* part of that awesome. If you're white, middle-aged, and clearly affluent you're fine, if you're not then they're like the second coming of Bull Connor, a buncha sadistic racist fucks who enjoy beating on young people.

    Note that cities and states which accept federal money for HOV lanes aren't allowed to exclude motorcycles from HOV lanes or else they're required to refund the Federal Government for the entire amount of money that was used to build and maintain said HOV lanes, though half the idiot cops out there aren't aware of that. Luckily the CHP *is* aware of that, due to the sheer number of motorcyclists that we have here in Cahleeefooohneeeahhhh (as our former Governator pronounced its name).

    I would not recommend shooting anything on the side of a public freeway. Bullets don't disappear when you shoot them at something, they go somewhere. If there's a thousand cars within a 100 yard radius, the chances of said bullet ricocheting and hitting one of those cars is far too high.

    Better yet would be to confiscate the car on the spot for a carpool lane violation. If some dweeb in a Mercedes or Lexus complains, "how do I get to work without my car?!", the answer should be a smirk and the word, "Carpool!". There's plenty of predatory tow truck drivers who would jump at the business opportunities this allows, you'd have a cop monitoring the carpool lane, then a line of tow trucks behind him waiting for the cop to pull over a carpool lane violator. It'd be awesome ;).

    None of which has anything to do with the death penalty for possession of a tiny amount of a drug that has never killed anybody. Remember, boys and girls, marijuana doesn't kill people. Vicious cops do.

  9. Badtux, you're mixing cops and thugs with guns. There are still plenty of good cops out there, but the thugs with guns are becoming more common.

    I understand the issue on shooting, but wanted to make a point...a better choice would be to drill a hole in the sidewall.
