From Facebook Page – Police State USA: Land of the Checkpointscomes this chilling video of cops berating a harmless individual. The info states the video is out of Durham. This video comes from Durham in CA. Here is a link to the recent findings by the PD according to The Star
These types of interactions with police have occurred millions of times. Thanks to the the surveillance camera in this case, and many times the risks assumed by folks like you and me holding a cellphone, we are starting to expose what we’ve been allowing these people to get away with for so long.
Out of despair a message has risen which is, ‘No Justice No Peace!’ - inspired by the recent police brutality in Omaha, Nebraska. This is the anthem for many individuals who have died or have been beaten at the hands of a police officer. If you know anyone, or if you have been a victim of excessive force, or know someone who has been murdered or beaten, please share this video. This video will also be shared with police stations in all 50 states. Let’s spread the message around the globe! Together, we will end brutality! #NoJusticeNoPeace
Feel free to visit our site for more information on the two artists featured in the video, or you can visit www.mauricebailey.info for information on Maurice Bailey.
This article was recently published by the former Omaha Police Auditor, which mentions “No Justice, No Peace!”
Propaganda, Psychological Warfare, and The War For Your Mind in Wake of Boston Bombing
Just after the bombing occurred, alternate media source Inforwars.com dispatched a reporter to see what he could uncover, and to ask some tough questions. This is the sort of reporting and investigative journalism we could never expect from mainstream corporate media sources today. To the contrary, regular news sources have already been caught in a number of lies, spreading untruths and disinformation, ignoring pertinent facts, and in general trying very hard to paint a particular picture about the terrible event.
Of course, this is not a complete endorsement either, of Alex Jones, his InfoWars network, or any alternate media source in general. The idea here is for people to judge for themselves, to exercise critical thinking, and to have as many genuine facts at their disposal as possible. But to that end, it certainly appears that alternate media sources have become our only reliable source of open information.
Dan Bidonbi, reporting for Infowars, was there for the initial press conferences.
Just looking at that video alone, it would be easy to write off the reporter as another one of those “wacko conspiracy nuts.” Sadly, his question was probably the single most important question asked during that press conference, and it went unanswered. It is not conspiracy theory that the police were conducting a so-called drill when these bombs went off. It is not conspiracy theory they were telling people before, and even after bombs had actually gone off, that it was just an exercise.
University of Mobile’s Cross Country Coach is just one of many witnesses who has come forward to corroborate this account. Before the bombs went off, he was concerned by bomb-sniffing dogs, rooftop snipers, and intense police activity.
“It seemed like there was some sort of threat, but they kept telling us it was just a drill… They kept making announcements on the loud speaker that it was just a drill and there was nothing to worry about.” -Coach Ali Stevenson (SOURCE)
Witnesses at the scene are not the only source of information though. While the mainstream media can be a very unreliable source of information, they also make mistakes by reporting actual facts from time to time – inconvenient facts that do not fit the ongoing “script” and will therefore never be reported on again, except in the underground media who happened to pick up that information before it got scrubbed entirely from the internet.
Of course we must also understand that not all false reports by the media are necessarily deliberate. In any unfolding events there will be chaos, conflicting reports, and so forth. On the other hand, there are some things that would never be reported at all, unless there was a reason. Reporting that police were conducting a drill that involved a controlled explosion is one such example. Again, keep in mind, that this was reported before the bombs actually went off. So the Boston Globe cannot simply dismiss their reports as being an error because of confusion after the blasts went off. (See here - Strong Evidence ‘Drill’ Was Cover For Actual Bombing In Boston)
So we see from all of this that the questions posed by InfoWars reporter Dan Bidonbi were not at all the product of lunacy, or some hidden agenda to discredit authorities simply for the sake of discrediting authorities. The questions were completely legitimate, should have been answered, and yet still have not been answered.
Despite the most comprehensive, invasive, violent, and Constitutionally offensive manhunt ever conducted on American soil, police actually failed to find “Suspect #2″ Dzhokar Tsarnaev after his alleged shootout with police some 20 hours earlier. Instead, he was found by a civilian homeowner who went out to check on his boat after the declaration of martial law had been lifted, and found the suspect laying inside. Despite the fact that the suspect was not armed, police opened fire on him with high-power weapons.
Thanks to Dan Bidonbi reporting for InfoWars, we have learned now that even though police didn’t bother to check the boat, they had ripped through the rest of the neighborhood with menacing threat of force, and even stormed through the house right across the street from where the suspect was eventually found.
Be sure to check out these video interviews - Boston Gestapo Victims Speak OutThere, we see that Mr. Bidonbi is conducting real interviews, with real people in that community who were directly affected by all that unfolded there. The interviews are rather lengthy, and were not edited to cherry-pick small soundbites to be broadcast for propaganda value. In fact, some of what was said there by the folks interviewed does not fit in line with other InfoWars reports or the consensus of conspiracy theorists.
One such contradiction is that a person who is interviewed there by Bidonbi says that he saw Dzhokar run over his brother Tamerlan, who was laying in the street at police gunpoint. This actually conflicts with other witness statements who claim the police ran over the suspect in the street. Those statements also conflict with the assessment of a doctor, who says that the suspect was not run over at all.
This is what the news is supposed to be – an open funnel of information, uncut, and in the raw. From all of these reports, we can assess for ourselves, and extrapolate whatever truth is there to be found.
Yet, this sort of reporting is dangerous to the real conspirators and their hidden agendas, whatever those agendas might be, dangerous to mainstream media who are being undermined and made fools of by true journalism, but perhaps most of all, dangerous to people like Dan Bidonbi who have the courage to bring you this information.
Given all that is at stake here, the entire public perception of the Boston bombing, of the war on terror, of our own government, it is not surprising that certain powers-that-be would finally engage in direct psychological warfare. Alex Jones and his networks can no longer just be written off as lunacy. Increasing numbers of people are taking these things seriously. People are realizing that we, as a society, have been duped by our government and by the media.
But how do to the powers-that-be undermine the alternative media? How can the liars put the rustling sheep back to sleep, even with wolves scratching at the door? How can the liars discredit the seekers of truth? The answer is, to engage someone like Dan Bidonbi, directly. Make it appear as if the attack is spontaneous. Make it appear as though it is just an average person, a “one of us” sort of person, a “real patriot” who is utterly offended by the mere presence of someone like Dan Bidonbi in his midst. Better yet, shine the spotlight on a “true believer.” Someone who is utterly incapable of even considering inconvenient facts that run contrary to what is “allowed” to be entered into public consciousnesses. A shill, who doesn’t even realize that he is a shill.
Enter, Roger Nicholson, who launches a misguided and disgusting attack. Sadly though, there certainly are people out there who will be duped by the ignorant vitriol spewed by the likes of this Nicholson character. Indeed, the mainstream media is counting on the vast majority of Americans to be swayed by this vulgar level of propaganda. MSNBC gives Roger Nicholson airtime simply to bash Alex Jones, and to attract national attention to Nicholson’s petty little rant toward an alternate media reporter.
Nicholson’s MSNBC suggested that he was not just some random guy off the street. He has some connections to the media as well. Perhaps this was the channel through which he was recruited as a minion of the agenda. Bona fide shill or not though, this clip is quite revealing as to his true nature, and the sort of person who the powers-that-be expect us to be like, and to identify with.
Finally, in this video, Nicholson actually appears on InfoWars as a guest. His murderous, psychotic nature bubbles to the surface again, though not quite as boldly as in the video above. But here we get a deeper look at how contradictory, delusional, utterly and willfully ignorant he actually is.
Former Love County Oklahoma undersheriff Jason Bone was recently arrested and charged on 4 felony counts of embezzlement. Jason Bone resigned amid an O.S.B.I. investigation into missing funds. Jason Bone Seized $73,000 dollars in currency from suspected drug traffickers on Interstate 35. Jason Bone allegedly helped himself to $23,000 dollars of the currency. Former Undersheriff Jason Bone allegedly stole this seized currency out of the safe at the Sheriff’s Dept. (See charges here).
Also, there has been a formal complaint affidavit turned in to the District D.A. Craig Ladd on allegations of Sheriff Joe Russell’s son stating that ” I can get anything you want out of the safe at the station.”
In yet another not so surprising attempt and likely success at “Fuck(ing)” an innocent man, this un-named (as of yet) cop decides to double down on his idiocy. He stated, despite acknowledging his failure to understand the basic fundamentals of ancient through modern mathematics, he was “gonna write my shit.” The “shit” he is referring to is likely a sworn police report. A .016 BAC would be expected, approximately, for a 180ish pound man who drank 2 beers over the past 2 hours.
On the other hand, a .16 is a completely different story. According to this online BAC calculator a 180 pound man would have to drink 9 beers in 1 hour to achieve the approximate threshold of a .16.
This cop also refers to the man as, “genius” as he mentions, “that little extra zero doesn’t mean shit.” He continues with, “You know what…fuck it…argue it in court.”
Without fail, he also threatens to “book the video recorder” (take the camera) despite having his own audio recording.
Please post this cop’s name/department in the comments and I will update appropriately.
I live in Bridgewater, Nova Scotia, in Eastern Canada. I work 7 days a week and adhere to the laws to the best of my ability. On the weekends I get up at 6AM and travel into the city (Halifax) to operate a small booth at a weekend market. Among other things I sell swords and knives, all of which are shipped into the country legitimately. I pay all duties, brokerage, taxes, etc. Customs is able to check these items at will, and they usually do.
On April 13th, 2013 three police officers entered the weekend market and told me that my knives “looked to be prohibited.” They had no search warrant but removed me from the booth and proceeded to search from one end to the other. I was patted down and my SA pocket knife (legal) was taken. I told them I use it to open packages, boxes, and such. The knives in question, that got their manties in a bunch, were 23 folding knives with a spring assisted opening, 9 novelty pocket knives with a 2” blade in which the handle looks like a bullet, 2 Cane Swords, and 13 Kubotans.
In the end they left with 40 items, all of which they deemed weapons. I advised them the law indicates a knife or any other object is not a weapon unless it can be proven it is meant to be used as a weapon. I told them the knives were not prohibited weapons as they are listed in the CBSA (Canada Border Services Agency – basically out ATF and homeland Security wrapped up into one) Memorandum D19-13-2 as being EXEMPT from being prohibited.
They confiscated the 40 items and told me they would be in contact to let me know if or what the charges would be. They walked out the door with $1,600.00 worth of my products. That’s not just pocket money or mad money. That’s my mortgage payment, car payment, groceries, power bill, etc.
Over the next week I studied the Criminal Code of Canada, The CBSA (Federal Police Agency) Memorandum D19-13-2, and conducted research to ensure I had not broken the law. I spoke with 4 CBSA Agents, one of which is the Eastern Canada, weapons and prohibited weapons specialist. I also spoke with 2 criminal law attorneys. Both advised me that under these circumstances, there is no way I could be charged.
Relieved, I contacted the officer in charge and advised him of the law. I sent them copies of the Criminal Code with the related laws highlighted, a copy of the D19-13-2 with the related parts highlighted, and even a copy of a case file from Ontario where the exact same thing happened to a man and the Judge found that the man did not do anything illegal and that the knives were in fact not illegal.
I still had not been charged with anything at this point. People tell me to leave it alone, but I am unable to. We shouldn’t live in a police state. If I allowed this to happen, what’s to stop them from walking into our homes and taking whatever they want?
The next day, I received an e-mail from the officer advising me that I was being charged and should turn myself in. I went into the station and was put in a cell. I was printed and photographed and placed in an interrogation room. An officer advised me of the charges, gave me a court date, and told me that if I did not show up a warrant would be put out for my arrest.
The charges are as follows:
Concealed Weapon 90(1) CC – refers to carrying a “weapon”, prohibited device, concealed. I concealed nothing on me or in my shop. The knives were on a shelf behind my counter.
Possession of Prohibited Weapons 91(2) CC – refers to unlawful possession of prohibited weapons. None of the items are prohibited under the Canadians Criminal Code and are actually listed as exempt from being prohibited in the CBSA D19-13-2. That said a knife in of itself is not by definition a weapon unless it is proven that this is its intended use.
Possession to Traffic 100(2) CC – This one scares me as it appears that if the court somehow finds that these knives are prohibited it states that the minimum punishment is 3 years in prison.
I’m a 41-year-old who stands to lose everything. If I end up with a criminal record because of a cop’s conscious disregard of the law, I will not be able to travel outside of the country for at least a decade after my probation, as these are indictable offenses. I could end up in prison for 3 to 10 years.
Honestly, I think this whole thing has happened because the cops are pissed off that I called him out on their bullshit. It has nothing to do with enforcement of the law for them. It has nothing to do with protecting the public.
Cops are corrupt, egotistical, megalomaniacs that for the most part border on sociopathic tendencies. They are corrupt and lie even when they know you haven’t done anything wrong. Cops are the real criminals. As far as I am concerned, 3 police officers committed armed robbery when they entered my store and stole my property. They simply used their uniforms and lies about the law as their cover.
I will now be aggressively promoting your organization and website. It’s terrible the things that people are subjected to in the name of “the law”. But it’s nice to know that I’m not alone in standing up to it.
The NYPD makes no bones about their tactic. They call it crime prevention, we call it racist violation of constitutional rights. But their “stop-and-frisk” tactics have declined for the first time in several years, raising the question – is the NYPD ready to give up this practice of criminalizing people based solely on their location and likely their race?
According to the Wall Street Journal, stop-and-frisks are down over 50 percent for the first quarter of 2013, when compared with 2012. It comes at an interesting time, as the city is facing a federal lawsuit for their employment of these practices.
The lawsuit was filed on behalf of several people who were victims of the stops. In case you’re unaware of the tactic, a stop-and-frisk is when a cop sees you in a high-crime neighborhood and uses this, paired with any other loose justification, to assume you may have committed or may be about to commit a crime. The officer then detains you on the street and may frisk you or pat you down.
The stop-and-frisk approach is largely used by rookies operating in the Operation Impact program, which sends a large amount of uniformed officers into high crime neighborhoods to sort of make their presence known. If the stops were made because there was good evidence of an impending crime, it might not be so bad. But officers are using the mere reputation of neighborhood and things like clothing or loitering as evidence to justify a search. As you well may imagine, they are doing it en masse to black and Latino men.
In 2002, for instance, 85 percent of those stopped were Latino or black, and 90 percent were released without criminal charge or arrest. What does that mean? That 90 percent had done nothing wrong. This is the crux of the lawsuit. So, why are stop-and-frisks down? Ask the NYPD and they will tell you it’s a staffing issue or a training situation. Still, the lawsuit certainly can’t be ignored, and there’s a good chance that the department is quietly backing off.
Most interesting about the drop in stop-and-frisks, however, is that it comes at the same time as a drop in crime rates. Crime in the city is down 2.7 percent during the first quarter of 2013, and murders are down 30 percent. What this says is that stop-and-frisks may not have the amazing impact that the city wants you to believe. In fact, it seems, the dropping crime rate has nothing to do with the use of stop-and-frisk tactics.
So, if stop-and-frisk does not reduce crime, what does it do?
Generally, stopping people without solid justification and doing so in significantly racially-disproportionate numbers does nothing but widen the rift between a community and the police. It does nothing but justify the bitter distrust held by many people within the city. From the NYPD’s perspective, it likely serves to keep people “in their place.”

In an incident reminiscent of the Kelly Thomas tragedy, an unarmed Bakersfield man was killed during an attempted arrest by local law enforcement.
Kern County Sheriff’s deputies were investigating David Sal Silva for public intoxication. In total, nine officers of the Kern County Sheriff’s department and the California Highway Patrol beat Silva to death, as they claimed he resisted arrest. Several witnesses apparently captured footage of the beating on their cell phones. But, the cell phones were confiscated by deputies as evidence.
The Kern County Sheriff’s department released the following names of involved officers:
Ryan Greer
Tanner Miller
Jeffrey Kelly
Luis Almanza
Brian Brock
David Stephens
The CHP has not released the names of its officers involved in the arrest. More details here.
The government in Isabella County Michigan is completely defunct. Its continued operation is costing the citizens of Isabella County dearly by saddling us with liabilities created by mismanagement, poor leadership and outright corrupt and criminal behavior. The government in Isabella County has violated not only the state and federal constitutions but it’s own charter as well.
It is time to take a stand.
I cannot and will never advocate unprovoked violence; however, it must be known that more government attacks on “We the People” will not be tolerated and will be met with equal or greater force. The continued use of government force by Isabella County is an outright act of war against its citizens. The collection of taxes in this county constitutes Fraud, Racketeering and Extortion and is a bigger threat than organized crime because of its use of law enforcement officers that stand ready with guns and badges and presume to operate under color of law and color of office.
Over the next several months I will be organizing patriots to liberate the county of Isabella from it’s corrupt, oppressive and tyrannical leaders.
I gave Chief Judge Chamberlain a chance to make things right and allowed him the opportunity to practice what I had seen him preach in court about individual constitutional rights and he too has succumb to the power of corruption as if the salvation of a corrupt government could ever warrant the abuse of the people served by the same. Judge Chamberlain, I am deeply disappointed and you should be more than ashamed.
When any government ceases to serve the people whom have created and support it’s very existence, it has past the time to replace the same.
I no longer recognize the current government in Isabella County as having ANY authority over me or over any other person in Isabella County. I will not be terrorized, victimized and oppressed by those in government with criminal intent. Most, if not all, of the work that has been performed in Isabella County, trials, hearings and other court functions performed by it’s judges, arrests and charges brought by the Isabella County Sheriff Department and the Isabella County Prosecutor over the past 12 years is all work that needs to be redone by people that do not make practice of using the judicial system to conduct their own personal agendas and for the preservation of their perspective offices without regard for the law. Allowing criminals to arrest, prosecute and judge in our courts is completely unacceptable.
The elected servant leaders of this community have been afforded EVERY opportunity to address corruption, oppression and constitutional violations and have fully failed to take ANY appropriate action.
Your outward participation may get you fired and I would never ask you jeopardize the welfare of your own family. I will preserve your anonymity for volunteering information related to crime and corruption in Isabella County. This also goes for people that had been persuaded to believe that my family had abandoned our home and it’s contents by Shelly Sweet and her ability to convincingly lie without conscience.
Additionally, I am offering a reward of one full year’s salary for information that leads to any conviction, to be paid directly from the proceeds of any pending civil litigation against Isabella County and will ensure that even if you physically participated in the looting of my family’s home that you will NEVER be arrested or prosecuted for the same. This reward incentive is only being offered to the first ten people to step forward and break the silence. Leo, Steinert, Tellis, Sweet, Burdick, Rush and Chamberlain are ineligible. Risa, you are only eligible if you are the first to come forward.
Alternatively, failing to come forward and to participate voluntary in the liberation and re-birth of Isabella County by those continuing to remain silent, aiding and abetting criminals will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
Deadline: The deadline for both the reward and the exemption from prosecution is Monday- May 27, 2013.
