Cop's Perspective

OFFICER SUES MAYOR OVER COMMENTS AFTER DEADLY OIS

It’s happening again. A silly, self aggrandizing 2-bit politician makes hideous statements about a police officer and gets sued in the process. Oh great.

Wapato, WA officer Michael Campos was involved in a fatal OIS in the town of Wapato. A domestic disturbance that went sideways …in a big hurry. Officer Campos shot and killed the attacker. A review by the Prosecuting Attorney and the WA Attorney General’s office ruled the shooting to be justified. OK, back on the street. Not so fast.

Mayor Tony “dumbass” Guzman said, in a FB post, “What a piece of shit…He deserves to die in prison…it’s people like you that give Latinos a bad name…You are a disgrace to the PD…never show your face in Wapato again, and take the Chief with you.” Strong and undeserved words from a “no nothing” who doesn’t realize the baggage this officer will carry for the rest of his life.

The mayor and the police department may disagree, as is the case with many departments but to take to FB and demean this officer is totally out of bounds.

Accordingly, officer Campos contacted a “police friendly” attorney and is in the process of suing the city for defamation and creating a hostile work environment.

Guess all the goofy politicians don’t govern from Washing DC.

FT. LAUDERDALE AIRPORT SHOOTER-SHOULD HE HAVE BEEN ON NO FLY LIST?

On January 6th a nutjob got off a flight from Anchorage to Ft. Lauderdale. He reclaimed his checked bag, a gun, went to the bathroom loaded it with one magazine and placed the other magazine in his pocket. He then proceed to shoot and kill 5 passengers and wound 6 others. This goof met the criteria for being placed on a no fly list. Let’s take a look.

This wipe went to the FBI office in Anchorage told them he was being forced to watch ISIS video’s and was being “forced” to conduct terrorist activities by the CIA. Which, by the way, was controlling his mind. The FBI called the constabulary who transported the potential terrorist to the local psychiatric facility. Oh yeah, he had the gun with him when he came to the FBI office.

A quick background check would have revealed he was on ISIS chat sites, had a less than honorable discharge from the military and had a number of run-ins with the Anchorage police department.

The FBI spokesman, S/A “It’s Not My Fault” said at a news conference he didn’t fit the criteria for the no-fly list. I beg to differ. (See Cop’s Perspective 12/29/15)

Wonder what the family members of the victims think about the continuous and unending “Blame Game?” Probably not much…yeah,me too.

BLACK COPS AREN’T REALLY BLACK

I WAS LOOKING AT A COPY OF LAW OFFICER RECENTLY AND SAW AN ARTICLE ABOUT THE CMPD OFFICER WHO SHOT AND KILLED A VIOLENT FELON WITH A GUN WHO WAS ABOUT TO OPEN FIRE ON A GROUP OF POLICE OFFICERS.

A SPOKESPERSON FOR THE CHARLOTTE NAACP HAD THE UNMITIGATED GALL TO SAY THIS OFFICER WASN’T REALLY BLACK. LET’S TAKE A LOOK.

CMPD OFFICER BRENTLY VINSON, A 2 YEAR MEMBER OF THE CMPD COMPLETED COLLEGE WHERE HE WAS A FOOTBALL STANDOUT. HE FOLLOWED IN HIS DAD’S FOOTSTEPS AND BECAME A CMPD OFFICER. HE IS THE LEADER OF HIS CHURCHES YOUTH BIBLE STUDY AND IS A SUPERB, THOUGHTFUL AND DEDICATED COP. NOT BAD, AND BEFORE THIS INCIDENT NO ONE QUESTIONED THE COLOR OF HIS SKIN.

THE GOOF WHO GOT SHOT WAS TOLD A NUMBER OF TIMES TO DROP THE WEAPON HE HELD IN HIS RIGHT HAND. HE WAS A CONVICTED VIOLENT FELON AND HAD A NUMBER OF ORDERS OF PROTECTION FILED AGAINST HIM BY HIS WIFE. IN ONE OF THE ORDERS SHE SAID HE WAS GOING TO KILL HER AND HER DAUGHTER. NOW, OF COURSE, THIS JERK IS A CAUSE CELEBRE’ FOR THE EVER OFFENDED SET.

THE NAACP IS SUPPOSED TO RECOGNIZE AND APPLAUD OUTSTANDING BLACK MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY. NOT BERATE THEM.

OFFICER BRENTLY VINSON IS A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF TODAY’S LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER AND THE CMPD IS INDEED FORTUNATE TO HAVE AN OFFICER OF THIS CALIBER AMONG THEIR RANKS. CARRY ON OFFICER VINSON!!

MS. MOSBY AND MAJ. SAM-THEIR TURN IN THE HOT SEAT

THE PROSECUTOR THAT WON’T GO AWAY. THAT’S RIGHT, MARILYN MOSBY AND MAJ. SAM OF THE BALTIMORE SHERIFF’S DEPARTMENT WILL HAVE TO ANSWER FOR THE EGREGIOUS CRIMES THEY BOTH PARTICIPATED IN WHILST PERSECUTING THE BALTIMORE 6. (SEE “COP’S PERSPECTIVE BLOG DTD 6/28/16)

LAST WEEK A FEDERAL JUDGE RULED THAT THE LAW SUIT BROUGHT BY 5 OF THE BALTIMORE 6 CAN PROCEED.

MOSBY AND COMPANY APPEALED TO THE COURT THAT SHE AND MAJ SAM WERE NOT RESPONSIBLE UNDER THE “MALICIOUS PROSECUTION” CLAUSE THAT PROTECTS THE STATE’S ATTORNEY FROM BEING SUED WHILE IN THE PROCESS OF DOING HER JOB. MAYBE SEE LOST SIGHT OF THAT PART OF HER JOB THAT COMPELS HER TO GET THE CRIMINALS WHO VIOLATE THE LAWS OF THE LAND INTO COURT TO ANSWER FOR THE OFFENCES CHARGED. NOT POLICE OFFICER’S DOING THEIR JOB’S.

SHE COULD HAVE AVOIDED ALL THIS IF SHE HAD NOT RUSHED HEADLONG INTO CHARGING THE OFFICERS BASED ON A SLOPPY OR NON-EXISTENT INVESTIGATION BY MAJ. SAM. INSTEAD SHE CHARGED THE BALTIMORE 6 WITH CRIMES INCLUDING “DEPRAVED HEART MANSLAUGHTER.”

ALL OF THE OFFICERS WERE FOUND NOT GUILTY OR THE CHARGES WERE DISMISSED. NOW SHE MUST FACE A COURT WHERE SHE WILL BE MADE TO ACCOUNT FOR HER ACTIONS AND THE OFFICER’S GOOD NAME AND REPUTATION WILL BE RESTORED.

WHO ON EARTH CAN’T ADMIRE AND EMBRACE A COURT SYSTEM THAT ALLOWS CASES SUCH AS THIS TO BE LAID BARE. TRUTH AND JUSTICE WILL FINALLY PREVAIL.

DUNCE OF THE MONTH CLUB

WELL, A NEW YEAR HAS BEGUN. LETS ALL HOPE THAT THIS YEAR WILL BE MUCH SAFER FOR OR NATIONS COPS.

I PICKED UP ON SOME ACTIVITIES BY THE OTHER PORTION OF SOCIETY…STUPID CRIMINALS. I’LL SEE IF EVERYONE LIKES THIS. GOD KNOWS WE HAVE PLENTY OF MATERIAL ON THE DUMB ASSES THAT LIVE OUTSIDE THE LAW.

JOSE VACA SAYS HE WAS “TESTING” THE BAKERSFIELD, CA COPS DURING A TRAFFIC STOP. THIS “LUCKY TO BE ALIVE” GOOF GOT OUT OF THE CAR WITH A RIFLE. NATURALLY, THE COPS “NEUTRALIZED THE THREAT” OUR DUNCE OF THE MONTH WAS STRUCK 12 TIMES AND WILL LIVE TO REOFFEND.

AS A CONVICTED FELON AND PAROLEE HE SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN IN POSSESSION OF A WEAPON IN THE FIRST PLACE.

MR. VACA SAID HE NEVER PLANNED TO SHOOT THE OFFICERS BUT RATHER, WANTED TO TEST A “THEORY” THAT THE COPS WOULDN’T SHOOT…THINK AGAIN. LOOKING BACK THIS EINSTEIN SAYS “MAYBE IT WASN’T SUCH A GOOD IDEA. YA THINK!!

OUR “DUNCE OF THE MONTH” WAS BOOKED ON 7 FELONIES AND THREE MISDEMEANORS.

GUESS THIS TURKEY MISSED HIS GIRLFRIEND AT THE CHINO CORRECTIONAL FACILITY.

THINGS COPS KNOW THAT MOST PEOPLE DON’T-PART 2

Over the past several years I wrote about cops, politicians and bad guys. I just reviewed a bunch of old posts looking for something that didn’t have anything to do with the lunacy involving cops today. Lets all take a step back, take a deep breath and hope like hell that our nations cops don’t have to put up with all the silly “edicts” and proclamations by the elected goofs. So best to all and lets make next year safer than this one.

I RECENTLY WROTE A BLOG ABOUT THE THING COPS KNOW THAT MOST PEOPLE DON’T. I HAD A BUNCH OF REQUEST TO WRITE SOME MORE ABOUT THIS. HOPE YOU LIKE IT.

MOST COPS KNOW AND WONDER WHY WHEN A COP IS INVOLVED IN A STRUGGLE PEOPLE WILL GRAB THEIR PHONE AND RECORD THE ACTIVITY. THEY QUESTION WHY SOMEONE, ANYONE WOULDN’T STEP IN AND ASSIST THE OFFICER. I WOULD AND HAVE.
MOST COPS DON’T KNOW THE COLOR OF THE OCCUPANT(S) OF A VEHICLE THEY ARE STOPPING. THIS IS ESPECIALLY TRUE WHEN THE CAR IS BEING STOPPED AT NIGHT AND HAS TINTED WINDOWS.
MOST COPS KNOW THAT IF YOU FIX THAT TAILLIGHT, MUFFLER OR OTHER MECHANICAL ISSUE THEY WILL QUIT STOPPING YOU.
MOST COPS KNOW THAT IT’S IMPOSSIBLE TO STOP A CAR FAST ENOUGH WHEN THE DRUNK IN THE BACK SAYS…”I GOTTA PUKE.”
MOST COPS KNOW YOU CAN’T FAN AWAY OR USE “PATCHOLI” TO GET THE MARIJUANA SMOKE/AROMA OUT OF THE CAR BEFORE YOU APPROACH.
MOST COPS KNOW THEY HAVE TO WORK HOLIDAYS, BIRTHDAYS, ANNIVERSARIES ETC. BUT THEY ALL WISH YOU AND YOUR FAMILIES A HEALTHY AND PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR.

THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR INTEREST AND SUPPORT OF “COPS PERSPECTIVE.”

KEN DYE.

A LOOK AT OFFICER SAFETY 2016 (TO DATE)

I RECENTLY READ AN ARTICLE IN POLICEONE.COM WRITTEN BY DALE STOCKTON. HE’S A LAW ENFORCEMENT ACADEMIC WHO’S GOT MORE DEGREES THAN A THERMOMETER. HE’S ALSO A 32 YEAR VETERAN OF LAW ENFORCEMENT. THE ARTICLE IS TITLED “WHAT DO 2016 LODD’s MEAN FOR OFFICER SAFETY?” GOOD QUESTION. IN AN ATTEMPT TO REVIEW THE LODD’s HE TOOK A LOOK AT GUNFIRE DEATHS IN, GET THIS, “A LONGITUDINAL VIEW…” OF WHAT OCCURRED.

OK, FINE. I LOOKED UP THE TERM “LONGITUDINAL” WHICH WEBSTER DEFINES AS “RUNNING LENGTHWISE. RELATING TO THE DISTANCE OF A PLACE EAST OR WEST OF THE GREENWICH MERIDIAN.”

I RESPECTFULLY SUGGEST THAT IS THE WRONG TERM AS OFFICER DEATHS AND ASSAULTS WITH FIREARMS HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE GREENWICH MERIDIAN. PERHAPS SOMETHING MORE APPROPRIATE LIKE ” THE WAR ON POLICE” OR “THE MEDIA AND GOVERNMENTS ROLE IN THE EXPONENTIAL ATTACKS ON OUR NATIONS POLICE.” THAT’S SOMETHING EVERY COP CAN UNDERSTAND.

LET’S TAKE A LOOK AT THE NUMBERS. IN 2015 THERE WERE 121 OFFICERS SHOT WITH 32 PAYING THE ULTIMATE PRICE. THAT LEAVES 89 OFFICERS SHOT WHO SURVIVED.

IN 2016 THERE HAVE BEEN 271 OFFICERS SHOT WITH 62 BEING KILLED. THIS MEANS THAT 209 OFFICERS ARE STILL SUCKING UP THIS POLLUTED AIR. I CAN THINK OF AT LEAST FIVE OFFICERS WHO SUFFERED DEVASTATING INJURIES AT THE HANDS OF AMERICA’S THUGS. OFFICERS PARALYZED OR STILL IN A COMA.

LET’S CRUNCH SOME NUMBERS: OFFICERS KILLED IN 2016 ARE 72% HIGHER THAN LAST YEAR. IN ADDITION THE NUMBER OF OFFICERS SHOT INCREASED AN ASTOUNDING 234%!! WOW, AND JUST WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH THE GREENWICH MERIDIAN? NOTHING, JUST THAT THE WAR ON COPS CONTINUES TO INCREASE IN FREQUENCY AND SEVERITY.

WHO’S DEFENDING THE DEFENDERS?

I WAS DEEPLY SADDENED TO HEAR THAT ANOTHER BRAVE, YOUNG POLICE OFFICER FROM THE GSU POLICE DEPARTMENT HAS LEFT US. HE WAS PRECEDED IN DEATH BY HIS FRIEND AND FELLOW OFFICER FROM THE AMERICUS, GA POLICE DEPARTMENT.

I CHECKED THE STATS ON THE NUMBER OF OFFICERS SHOT AND KILLED SO FAR THIS YEAR. IT’S UP AN ASTOUNDING 72%. HUMMM, WHAT’S THE DEAL?

LACK OF SUPPORT. THAT’S RIGHT, LACK OF SUPPORT FROM THE HIGHEST LEVELS OF OUR GOVERNEMENT. A PRESIDENT WHO STATES THE CAMBRIDGE, MA POLICE DEPARTMENT “ACTED STUPIDLY.” OK, MAYBE THAT’S JUST A MISSTEP FROM A CONSTITUTIONAL LAWYER.

THEN, DURING AND AFTER THE “FERGUSON FIASCO” OUR PRESIDENT AND AG TELL US THAT AMERICAS POLICE OFFICERS ARE RACIALLY BIASED. THIS OPENS THE FLOOD GATES OF NON-COMPLIANCE AND RESISTANCE TO AUTHORITY.

BLACK POLICE OFFICERS ARE DEEMED “UNCLE TOM’S” AND “NOT REAL PEOPLE.” BULLSHIT!! THESE ARE THE VERY ROLE MODELS THAT YOUNG MINORITY KIDS SHOULD LOOK UP TO AND WANT TO EMULATE. CITIZENS WHO HAVE CHOSEN THE PROFESSION OF LAW ENFORCEMENT AND HAVE THE COURAGE TO SERVE THE RULE OF LAW.

NOT THE ELITIST ATHLETES AND ENTERTAINERS WHO ARE HYPOCRITICAL, ANTI-AMERICAN AND DEFINITELY ANTI-LAW ENFORCEMENT.

THE LACK OF LEADERSHIP AT ALL LEVELS HAVE DONE NOTHING BUT EMPOWER AND EMBOLDEN THE CRIMINAL ELEMENT AND GIVEN VICTIM HOOD TO THOSE THAT SHOOT AND KILL OUR POLICE OFFICERS.

NOW, WHAT WAS ALL THAT BS ABOUT THIS BEING ONE OF THE SAFEST YEARS FOR POLICE IN…OH, ABOUT 30 YEARS.

SECRETS COPS KNOW THAT MOST PEOPLE DON’T

Police Officer Writing Ticket — Don’t you have something better to do? Not now, this is about as good as it gets.

IF YOU PICK UP A COPY OF ANY NEWSPAPER OR CATCH A TV CLIP ABOUT SOMETHING COPS HAVE DONE IT REALLY DOESN’T SOUND OR READ LIKE WHAT REALLY HAPPENED.

SOMETIMES IT GOOD TO INJECT A LITTLE “COP’ HUMOR…

MOST COPS DON’T LIKE WRITING TICKETS. THEY KNOW IT’S A NECESSARY PART OF THE JOB. UNLESS YOUR WRITING A TICKET TO THE GOOF WHO SAYS”I PAY YOUR SALARY”…THEN WRITING A TICKET ISN’T SO BAD.
THE VAST MAJORITY OF COPS NEVER FIRE THEIR GUNS EXCEPT ON THE RANGE. THEY CAN, HOWEVER, TELL YOU ABOUT THE NUMEROUS TIMES THEY COULD HAVE BECAUSE THE PERSON POSED A DEADLY THREAT. THIS MEANS THAT COPS USE “DE CONFLICT ION” TECHNIQUES OR LESS LETHAL TO DEFUSE A POTENTIALLY DEADLY SITUATION.
MOST COPS WONDER IF THEY HAVE SOMETHING BETTER TO DO UNTIL THE PERSON ASKS IN A WHINY ASS VOICE, “DON’T YOU HAVE SOMETHING BETTER TO DO?” COPS KNOW THE ANSWER TO THAT ONE IS “NO, IT DOESN’T GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS.”
MOST COPS KNOW THAT THE PERSON THEY JUST STOPPED HAD MORE THAN A “COUPLE BEERS.” IN FACT THAT COP CAN USUALLY ESTIMATE THE NUMBER OF BEERS THEY REALLY HAD.
MOST COPS LIKE DONUTS, SO DOES EVERYBODY. THEY ARE MADE TO TASTE GOOD, REALLY GOOD SO PEOPLE WANT TO THEM…PLEASE PASS ME ANOTHER DONUT.

SPECIAL TIP OF THE “COP’S PERSPECTIVE HAT TO DOUG WYLLIE, POLICE ONE, FOR INFORMATION CONTAINED HERE. WE’LL TALK ABOUT SOME OTHER”SECRETS” SOON.

LAW ENFORCEMENT PLAN OF ACTION

RECENTLY FORMER LAS VEGAS METRO POLICE LIEUTENANT RANDY SUTTON WAS CONTACTED BY THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION TO WRITE A “PLAN OF ACTION” FOR AMERICA’S POLICE OFFICERS. YOU MAY KNOW RANDY THROUGH HIS FREQUENT APPEARANCES ON TV AND HIS POSITION AS SPOKESMAN FOR “BLUE LIVES MATTER” AS WELL AS HIS RADIO BROADCASTS ON “ AMERICA OUT LOUD-THE VOICE OF AMERICAN LAW ENFORCEMENT.

WELL KNOWN TO LAW ENFORCEMENT, RANDY CAME UP WITH A NUMBER OF ISSUES THAT WOULD HELP AND ASSIST THE LE COMMUNITY. LET’S TAKE A LOOK.

SUPPORT FOR THE FAMILIES OF THE FALLEN AND THOSE OFFICERS THAT ARE “CATASTROPHICALLY INJURED” AS A DIRECT RESULT OF THEIR SERVICE. TODAY, OFFICERS KILLED OR INJURED ARE OFTEN FORGOTTEN AFTER THE INCIDENT HAS FADED FROM THE FRONT PAGES.
REINSTATE THE 10-33 PROGRAM-GIVING SURPLUS MILITARY EQUIPTMENT TO DEPARTMENTS FOR SWAT OR OTHER MISSION ESSENTIAL USE.
POLICE OFFICERS BILL OF RIGHTS-INTRODUCE LEGISLATION OR EXECUTIVE ORDER TO ESTABLISH A NATIONWIDE “POLICE OFFICER’S BILL OF RIGHTS. THE BALTIMORE 6 COMES TO MIND.
TRAINING-ADDITIONAL TRAINING SUPPORT FOR OUR NATIONS COPS. NOT THE “SOFTER” “IT’S NOT THEIR FAULT” TRAINING BUT RATHER DEFENCIVE/OFFENSIVE TACTICS. THIS IS BASED ON THE ASTROMINICIAL INCREASE IN ATTACKS AND MURDERS OF OUR NATIONS OFFICERS.
RE-CALIBRATE THE DOJ-FOCUS ON CRIME AND CRIMINALS.
LEOSA (HR 218)-REVIEW THE CURRENT LAW TO MORE SPECIFICALLY DEFINE WHO IS AUTHORIZED TO CARRY A FIREARM.

THESE ARE A FEW BULLET POINTS FOR RANDY’S “PLAN OF ACTION.” I, ALONG WITH OUR NATIONS LEO’S ARE INDEED ENCOURAGED BY THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION’S OUT REACH TO THIS FINE AND WELL RESPECTED COP.

NOW, ABOUT THOSE APPOINTMENTS OF CHIEF BROWN AND SHERIFF CLARKE…
