Cop's Perspective

WAR ON COPS-PART 2

JULY 7TH I POSTED ABOUT THE WAR ON COPS AND GAVE STATISTICS THAT SHOW SHOOTINGS OF POLICE ARE ON THE RISE. I ALSO SHOWED THAT SHOOTINGS WHERE POLICE OFFICERS ARE MURDERED ARE ALSO ON THE RISE. COMPARED TO LAST YEAR SHOOTING WERE UP 59%, MURDERS OF POLICE OFFICERS WERE UP 21%. THOSE STATS WERE BEFORE THE MASSACRE IN DALLAS. NOW, THOSE COLD, HARD NUMBERS ARE OFF THE CHART.

YET WE HAVE POLITICIANS AND doj REPRESENTATIVES SAYING “THERE IS NO WAR ON POLICE.” I AND COPS ACROSS THE NATION BEG TO DIFFER. THIS IS THE WORST ATTACK ON POLICE SINCE 9/11. THIS IS ONE SET OF STATS THAT CAN’T BE ARGUED.

OUR PRESIDENT, ON JULY 7TH COMMENTED ON THE SAD STATE OF RACE RELATIONS. HOW A CERTAIN SEGMENT OF OUR SOCIETY IS TREATED DIFFERENTLY. IN ESSENCE, BLACK CITIZENS ARE PREYED UPON BY OUR COUNTRIES COPS. MR. PRESIDENT, REALLY?

COULD THESE WORDS HAVE INFLAMED THE DALLAS SHOOTER? COULD THEY HAVE BEEN INTERPRETED TO LEND VICTIM-HOOD TO THE PEOPLE WHO SHOT POLICE OFFICERS IN GA, TN AND IN BALLWIN, MO ON JULY 8TH?

OUR PRESIDENT SHOULD, FROM HIS BULLY PULPIT, ADVISE ALL OF HIS COUNTRYMEN TO OBEY THE LAW. THAT WE HAVE MORE IN COMMON THAN OUR DISLIKES. THAT WE ALL HAVE TO LIVE ON THIS PLANET UNTIL WE DEPART AND MAYBE, JUST MAYBE, EVERYBODY NEEDS TO TAKE A STEP BACK AND TAKE A DEEP BREATH. NOT PRAISING THE blm CROWD WOULD CERTAINLY BE A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.

WAR ON POLICE, WHAT WAR ON POLICE? NEXT EVENT, THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION IN CLEVELAND.

GOD BLESS MEN AND WOMEN OF THE DALLAS POLICE DEPARTMENT AND MAY THE VICTIM’S FAMILIES FIND PEACE.

THE WAR ON COPS-WHAT WAR ON COPS?

I JUST READ A STATISTIC THAT SHOWS POLICE OFFICER DEATHS BY GUNFIRE ARE ON THE RISE. 21 POLICE OFFICERS HAVE BEEN KILLED BY GUNFIRE SO FAR THIS YEAR. THAT’S A 31% INCREASE OVER LAST YEAR. ADDITIONALLY, 112 POLICE OFFICERS HAVE BEEN SHOT AND SURVIVED SO FAR THIS YEAR. THAT COMPARES TO 59 OFFICERS SHOT DURING THE SAME PERIOD IN 2015. A 52% INCREASE. I ALSO READ THAT THIS IS THE SAFEST YEAR FOR COPS IN DECADES. THE NUMBER OF POLICE SHOOTINGS THIS YEAR FAR EXCEED ANY NUMBERS FOR SEVERAL DECADES. MORE COPS ARE BEING SHOT AT A MUCH HIGHER LEVEL THAN EVER BEFORE. YES VIRGINIA, THERE IS A WAR ON COPS.

ADDITIONALLY, THE aclu AND THE blm CREWS HAVE EMBOLDENED AND EMPOWERED THE CRIMINAL ELEMENT IN SOCIETY. THE aclu, IN A RECENT REPORT ON THE CHICAGO POLICE DEPARTMENT SAID THAT STOPS OF BLACKS MADE UP 72% OF ALL STOPS. THIS SHOWED RACISM….NOT SO FAST. BETWEEN 1991 AND 2011, THE LATEST YEARS FOR WHICH DATA IS AVAILABLE, BLACKS MADE UP BETWEEN 70 AND 82 PERCENT OF MURDER OFFENDERS. IT APPEARS THAT INVESTIGATORY STOPS ARE IN LINE WITH MURDER RATES WHEN COMPARED BY RACE.

COPS ARE ROUTINELY CURSED AND SCREAMED AT DURING THE MOST ROUTINE ACTIVITIES. A CHICAGO COP ON THE SOUTH SIDE RECENTLY TOLD HEATHER MACDONALD, “PEOPLE WANT TO FIGHT YOU. FUCK THE POLICE. WE DON’T HAVE TO LISTEN.” RESISTING ARREST, A ONETIME RARITY, IS BECOMING MORE COMMON.

THESE ARE VIOLENT AND TROUBLED TIMES FOR AMERICAN POLICING AS WELL AS FOR THOSE CITIZENS OF OUR MAJOR METROPOLITAN AREAS. THOSE THAT NEED AND APPRECIATE POLICE OFFICERS.

A SPECIAL TIP OF THE “COP’S PERSPECTIVE” HAT TO AMANDA HALL MILLER OF LAW ENFORCEMENT SUPPORT FOR MEDIA ACCOUNTABILITY (LESMA). SHE HAD THE INFORMATION WHEN THE FBI DIDN’T. TOO BUSY INVESTIGATING CLINTON I SUPPOSE.

COPS WILL SURVIVE, THEY MUST!!

CHICAGO PD-THE BEGINNING OF THE END?

A CHICAGO POLICE OFFICER SEES A YOUTHFUL APPEARING BLACK MALE WALKING DOWN THE STREET. HE OBSERVES A BULGE IN THE SMALL OF THE PEDESTRIANS BACK. A BULGE THAT CAN ONLY MEAN ONE THING. A GUN.

THE OFFICER DRIVES PAST. COMPLETING HIS TOUR OF DUTY WITH NO TRAFFIC TICKETS, NO CONTACT CARDS AND NO GUN.

SUCH IS THE CURRENT STATE OF AFFAIRS AT THE CPD. A PROUD AND PROFESSIONAL ORIGINATION, DESPITE THE MISLEADING AND DISINGENUOUS PRESS CITIZENS ARE EXPOSED TO.

IN ADDITION TO THE “FERGUSON EFFECT” WHERE THE COPS ARE CRIMINALS AND THE OFFENDERS ARE VICTIMS ANOTHER LAYER OF BULLSHIT HAS BEEN LAID AT THE FEET OF THE RANK AND FILE. THE aclu HAS BECOME INVOLVED IN POLICE WORK. THAT’S RIGHT. THE CITY AND THE aclu ENTERED INTO AN AGREEMENT WHERE OFFICERS MUST FILL OUT A TWO PAGE REPORT WHEN CONTACTING A CITIZEN. OK, COPS ARE USED TO UNNECESSARY PAPER WORK. THEY’LL WORK THROUGH THAT.

THE CONTACT CARDS GO TO THE aclu FOR REVIEW AND CRITIQUE. THE COPS DON’T MIND THE PAPER WORK, BUT TO BE REVIEWED BY THE aclu..NO THANKS. SO A GUN WASN’T TAKEN OFF THE STREET AND ANOTHER MURDER OR SHOOTING OCCURS. THE HOMICIDE RATE AND AGGRAVATED ASSAULT NUMBERS GO THROUGH THE ROOF. WHAT WOULD YOU DO IN A CULTURE THAT CHASTISES GOOD AGGRESSIVE OFFICERS AND LIONIZES THE CRIMINAL?

MAJ. SAM COGEN CLAIMS NO KNOWLEDGE OF GRAY INVESTIGATION

LOOKS LIKE MAJ. SAM OF THE BALTIMORE SHERIFF’S OFFICE IS ATTEMPTING TO DISTANCE HIMSELF FROM THE MOSBY FIASCO. GOOD LUCK WITH THAT.

HE SIGNED THE CHARGING DOCUMENT REQUESTING THE CHARGES BE FILED AGAINST THE BALTIMORE 6. BAD MOVE PAL. YOU MAY HAVE WANTED TO GET ON THE BANDWAGON AND PILE ON THESE FINE OFFICERS WHO WERE ONLY DOING THEIR JOBS. KARMA, BABY, KARMA.

UNLESS I’M READING SOMETHING WRONG, MAJ. SAM SIGNED THE DOCUMENT THAT STATES THE CONTENTS ARE FACTUAL. YET HE SAYS HE DIDN’T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE INVESTIGATION….WHAT??

Screen Shot 2016-06-22 at 12.45.50 PM

THE OFFICERS THAT FILED THE CIVIL SUIT AGAINST MOSBY AND MAJ. SAM ARE SHOWING THAT THIS IS/WAS A “MALICIOUS PROSECUTION.” AS SUCH THE DEFENDANTS, MOSBY AND MAJ. SAM, ARE NOT ENTITLED TO THE THE IMMUNITY CLAUSE THAT PROTECTS GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS FROM CIVIL ACTION. DON’T COUNT WHEN MISCONDUCT CAN BE SHOWN.

MAJ. SAM, IN HIS BIO FOR THE SHERIFF’S OFFICE SAYS HE IS A RECENT GRADUATE OF THE POLICE INSTITUTE FOR INTEGRITY, LEADERSHIP AND PROFESSIONALISM. MAYBE HE BETTER GO BACK AND RE-READ THAT STUFF ABOUT INTEGRITY. YOU KNOW, TRUTH, HONESTY AND JUSTICE ALL GO HAND IN HAND. GUESS YOU MISSED THAT PART. OH, AND THAT THOUGHT ABOUT BEING SHERIFF. FORGET IT, MAYBE YOU AND MOSBY CAN GET THE SAME SHIFT AT McDonald’s.

DE-MILITARIZATION OF POLICE-NOT

FRESH IN OUR MEMORIES IS THE HORRIBLE, ATTACK ON U.S. CITIZENS ENJOYING A LATE EVENING AT CLUB PULSE IN ORLANDO. AN ISLAMIC TERRORIST WALKS IN AND PROCEED TO KILL A NUMBER OF REVELERS.

ORLANDO POLICE RESPOND AND ENGAGE THE SHOOTER IN AN ATTEMPT TO GET A FIX ON HIS LOCATION AND INSURE THE SAFETY OF OTHER HOSTAGES. THE SURVIVORS OF THE INITIAL ONSLAUGHT REMAINED HUDDLED IN THE BATHROOMS. SEVERAL OF THE HOSTAGES WERE ABLE TO CONTACT THE ORLANDO POLICE AND KEEP NEGOTIATORS AND OTHERS ADVISED OF THE SITUATION.

UPON DETERMINING THAT ADDITIONAL CONVERSATION WOULD NOT YIELD A PEACEFUL RESOLUTION, THE ORLANDO SWAT TEAMS BROKE DOWN A WALL WHERE THE HOSTAGES WERE LOCATED. HOW YOU ASK? GOOD QUESTION. THEY USED A BEAR CAT TACTICAL VEHICLE TO BREAK INTO THE BUILDING. AS THE HOSTAGES POURED OUT THEY COULDN’T THANK THE COPS ENOUGH. THIS ACTION SAVED A NUMBER OF LIVES.

THE ISLAMIC TERRORIST CAME OUT OF HIS RAT HOLE AND ENGAGED THE ORLANDO OFFICERS IN A RAGING GUN BATTLE. ONE OFFICER, WEARING A KEVLAR HELMET, RECEIVED A SHOT TO HIS HEAD. THE MILITARY STYLE HELMET SAVED THE OFFICER FROM CERTAIN DEATH.

YOU MAY RECALL ALL THE POLITICAL PUNDITS AND KNEE-JERKS DEMANDING THAT THE POLICE DE-MILITARIZE. WHY? BECAUSE THE TACTICAL GEAR WORN DURING RIOTS SCARED THE RIOTERS. TOO BAD JACK. THE MILITARY STUFF MUST STAY IN A POLICE DEPARTMENTS INVENTORY FOR USE AS NEEDED. GOD HELP US….PLEASE.

MOSBY STRIKES OUT…AGAIN

BALTIMORE STATE’S ATTY, MARILYN MOSBY JUST LOST ANOTHER ROUND IN HER MISGUIDED ATTEMPT TO MALICIOUSLY PROSECUTE SIX BPD OFFICERS FOR DOING THEIR JOBS.

THIS ONE IS ESPECIALLY GALLING FOR MS. MOSBY BECAUSE IT WAS CONSIDERED TO BE HER BEST SHOT AT A CONVICTION. EVERYTHING CAME CRASHING DOWN WHEN THE JUDGE LAMBASTED THE STATE FOR FAILING TO PROVIDE EVEN THE SLIGHTEST BIT OF PROOF THAT OFFICER CESAR GOODSON EVEN REMOTELY ACTED IN SUCH A MANNER THAT HE WOULD BE FOUND GUILTY OF 2ND DEGREE MURDER. LET ALONE ANY OF THE OTHER BOGUS CHARGES.

NOW MOSBY IS BEING CHALLENGED ON TWO FRONTS. ONE BEING SHOULD SHE PROCEED WITH THIS SILLY CHARADE AGAINST THE THREE REMAINING OFFICERS. MY GUESS IS THAT SHE WILL PROCEED. ONLY BECAUSE HER THICK SKULL WILL IS NOT ABLE TO PROCESS THE FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES SURROUNDING THIS CASE. ANY CLEAR THINKING PROSECUTOR CAN CLEARLY SEE THIS IS A FAST TRACK TO THE JUNKYARD OF HISTORY.

ADDITIONALLY, MOSBY IS THE SUBJECT OF A CIVIL ACTION BY FIVE OF THE SIX CHARGED OFFICERS. THE REMAINING OFFICER MAY JOIN THE SUIT SHORTLY.

EITHER WAY, MOSBY, FINDS HERSELF IN A REAL PICKLE. BUT THEN SHE’S THE ONE THAT PUT HERSELF IN THIS POSITION AND SHE HAS NO ONE TO BLAME BUT HERSELF. GREAT JOB MS MOSBY!!

NOT LOOKIN’ GOOD FOR BALTIMORE STATE’S ATTORNEY

IT’S JUNE 9TH AND THE FIRST DAY OF THE CESAR GOODSON TRIAL HAS CONCLUDED. BUT NOT BEFORE A LOT OF FIREWORKS.

THE PROSECUTORS WERE STERNLY REPRIMANDED BY JUDGE WILLIAMS FOR NOT TURNING OVER EVIDENCE THAT MAY HELP THE (WRONGFULLY) ACCUSED, BALTIMORE POLICE OFFICER CESAR GOODSON’S CASE.

THE EVIDENCE IN QUESTION IS A STATEMENT TAKEN BY DETECTIVES SHORTLY AFTER THE DEATH OF FREDDIE GREY. THE STATEMENT GIVEN BY DONTA ALLEN INDICATED THAT GREY WAS BANGING ABOUT THE BACK OF THE PRISONER TRANSPORT VAN. ALTHOUGH SEPARATED BY A METAL DIVIDER, ALLEN INITIALLY SAID THAT GREY WAS ATTEMPTING TO HURT HIMSELF.

THE FAILURE TO TURN OVER THIS EVIDENCE TO THE DEFENSE SIDE IS IN VIOLATION OF THE RULES OF EVIDENCE, REFERRED TO IN LEGAL CIRCLES AS THE BRADY RULE.

THIS GOES TO SHOW THAT MS. MOSBY AND HER BAND OF HANGMEN WILL GO TO ANY MEANS TO GAIN A CONVICTION OF ANY ONE OF THE BALTIMORE 6. IF SHE IS NOT SUCCESSFUL…AND I HOPE SHE ISN’T, THIS COULD SPELL THE END OF THE WITCH HUNT SHE IS PRESIDING OVER.

LET’S GET THESE FINE COPS BACK TO WORK AND PUT THIS THING IN THE REAR VIEW MIRROR. GOD BLESS THE BALTIMORE 6.

SAN JOSE CHIEF-NOT PROTECTING CITIZENS

LAST WEEK A TRUMP RALLY IN SAN JOSE WAS ROCKED BY PROTESTERS WHO ATTACKED AND FOUGHT WITH TRUMP SUPPORTERS WHO PLANNED ON ATTENDING THE RALLY.

ABOUT 250 SAN JOSE POLICE OFFICERS STOOD BY WHILE THE ATTACKS TOOK PLACE. NO OFFICERS ATTEMPTED TO INTERCEDE AS THE CROWD WAS ENTERING AND EXITING THE VENUE.

WHEN QUESTIONED ABOUT THE TEPID POLICE RESPONSE, SAN JOSE POLICE CHIEF, EDDIE GARCIA, COMMENDED HIS OFFICERS FOR SHOWING RESTRAINT. HE ALSO STATED THAT THE OFFICERS REFUSED TO BREAK FROM THEIR “SKIRMISH LINE” TO BREAK UP NEARBY ATTACKS BECAUSE THEY WEREN’T LIFE THREATENING AND “ADDITIONAL FORCE CAN INCITE MORE VIOLENCE IN THE CROWD.” HUH?? WHAT??

I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO TALK WITH A FEW SAN JOSE POLICE OFFICERS…THEY ARE TOTALLY DISGUSTED WITH THE NON-PALATABLE ORDERS THEY HAD TO FOLLOW.

THE SAN JOSE MAYOR FOLLOWED UP WITH A STATEMENT THAT “DONALD TRUMP NEEDS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE IRRESPONSIBLE BEHAVIOR OF HIS CAMPAIGN.”

LOOKS LIKE THE ONLY PEOPLE THAT NEED TO TAKE (IR)RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR BEHAVIOR IS THE CHIEF AND THE MAYOR. THEY BOTH FORGOT THAT THE ETHOS OF A POLICE DEPARTMENT IS TO “SERVE AND PROTECT.”

GLAD I DON’T LIVE IN OR AROUND SAN JOSE AND THAT I HAVE NEVER MET THESE TWO CHARLATANS!!

BALTIMORE PD…”ADMIN SHORTCOMINGS.”

WITH THE NOT GUILTY VERDICT OF BPD OFFICER ED NERO AND THE SCOLDING THE JUDGE GAVE THE PROSECUTION ABOUT OFFICERS NOT BEING AWARE OF THE REQUIREMENT TO BUCKLE PRISONERS INTO THE BACK OF THE TRANSPORT WAGON, THE BPD CHIEF SAID THIS CALLS FOR MORE TRAINING.

WELL, DUH, YEAH, MORE TRAINING. YOU KNOW LIKE YOU MUST BUCKLE PRISONERS BEING TRANSPORTED. IN ESSENCE THE CHIEF IS SAYING THAT THE BPD OFFICERS DID NOT KNOW OF THE GENERAL ORDER. THIS IS NOT UNUSUAL FOR LARGE DEPARTMENT TO ISSUE GENERAL AND SPECIAL ORDERS TO OFFICERS AND THEN NOT FOLLOW UP WITH IN SERVICE TRAINING.

BPD PLANS TO IMPLEMENT NEW SOFTWARE THAT WILL REQUIRE OFFICERS TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE POLICY.

A BIT LATE, I’D SAY. THIS ADDRESSES THE ISSUE OF OFFICES CAESAR GOODSON’S TRIAL. UP NEXT IN MS. MOSBY’S KANGAROO OPERATION. THE OFFICER WAS THE VAN DRIVER THAT DAY AND, ACCORDING TO MOSBY AND OTHERS, WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR SECURING THE PRISONER.

WITH THE BPD’S ADMISSION THAT THEIR GENERAL AND SPECIAL ORDERS ARE NOT KNOWN TO ALL OFFICERS, GIVES OFFICER GOODSON AN EXCELLENT BASIS FOR HIS DEFENSE. HOW CAN HE FOLLOW A POLICY HE HAD NO KNOWLEDGE OF?

LET’S PUT THIS SILLY ROAD SHOW TO BED BY DISMISSING ALL THESE BOGUS CHARGES AGAINST THESE FINE OFFICERS. WE’LL SEE WHAT HAPPENS TO MS. MOSBY IF SHE FAILS TO GAIN ANY CONVICTIONS…THE WAY IT’S SHAPING UP SHE JUST MAY NOT. WONDER WHO SHE’LL BLAME?? …..”HEAL THYSELF.”

BALTIMORE COPS SUE PROSECUTOR…YEA!!

THAT SAME SYSTEM THAT BALTIMORE STATE’S ATTORNEY, MARILYN MOSBY AND BALTIMORE SHERIFF’S OFFICE MAJ. SAM COGEN USED TO TRAMPLE THE PRIVACY AND CIVIL RIGHTS OF THE SIX BALTIMORE OFFICERS CHARGED IN THE AFTERMATH OF THE FREDDIE GRAY INCIDENT, HAS COME BACK TO BITE THEM BOTH.

SGT ALEICIA WHITE AND POLICE OFFICER WILLIAM PORTER FILED SUIT ALLEGING THAT STATEMENTS MADE BY MOSBY ALLEGING THAT THE OFFICE
RS ACTED IMPROPERLY AND CRIMINALLY ARE PATENTLY FALSE. ADDITIONALLY, THAT MOSBY KNEW AT THE TIME THAT THESE ALLEGATION WERE, IN FACT, FALSE REPRESENTATIONS OF THE FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES SURROUNDING THIS CASE.

THE SUIT ALSO ALLEGES THAT MOSBY USED THE CHARGES TO QUELL THE RIOTS RATHER THAN ANYTHING FACTUAL. THE BALTIMORE MAYOR SHOULD HAVE USED THE POLICE DEPARTMENT MORE JUDICIOUSLY AND STOPPED THE OUT OF CONTROL MOB BEFORE THE EXTENSIVE PROPERTY DAMAGE TOOK PLACE. THE MAYOR, YOU MAY RECALL STATED THAT SHE…”WANTED TO GIVE THOSE THAT WANTED TO DESTROY ROOM TO DO THAT…”

THE FIRST OFFICER TRIED, WILLIAM PORTER, RESULTED IN A HUNG JURY WITH 11 JURORS VOTING FOR ACQUITTAL. THE SECOND OFFICER TRIED WAS FOUND NOT GUILTY. AS THESE PHONY TRIALS PROCEED AND THESE OFFICER ARE FOUND NOT GUILTY THE THREAT OF MORE LAWSUITS LOOM LARGE OVER MOSBY AND OTHERS.

MOSBY SHOULD DISMISS THE CHARGES AGAINST THESE FINE OFFICERS AND PUT THEM ALL BACK TO WORK IMMEDIATELY. WILL SHE? PROBABLY NOT, HER EGO WILL NOT ALLOW.

NEXT WE WILL DISCUSS THE BPD’S RECENT ANNOUNCEMENT THAT PERHAPS THEY HAVE BEEN LAX IN TRAINING OFFICERS…STAY TUNED.
