Another Marine Iraq War Vet Beaten Savagely by Oakland Cops

I was wondering why I was being getting a lot of police attention at the Salem rally on thursday [I rode my bike ] . What morons . Dont worry Anon the lawsuits and criminal charges are coming it just takes a while for these things to go forward . The press is allready winning lawsuits and I hope they pursue mandamus charges as well. I would use any monies from a suit to do so . There is zero way to defend against thier actions to a jury in most cases . Both thier own rules and the law are being broken by the police . Wait untill protesters use organized force to resist ,they may have a badge but that doesnt make them superman. The funny thing is the more they stomp on our rights the more people get involved .Now instead of knowing when and where protests and protesters are they are just popping up all over the place .Great move . Wait untill the government really screws us next week ,bet there will be a lot more people deciding to get involved . Let me share once again what the law says about the criminal actions that are being taken . Title 42 United States Code Subchapter 1> 19893 Every person who under any Statute ,Ordinance ,Regulation custom or usage of any State or Territory or of the district of Columbia subjects ,or causes to be subjected,any citizen to the deprivation of any rights ,secured by the Constitution shall be liable to the party injured in an action at law . Anon could you please explain how the police ,the mayors ,etc. are not breaking this law and why they shouldnt be held to account for assault ,unlawfull detention and malicious prosecution due to the fact that this law directly says any ordinance or statute . Law and order works both ways and the Constitution is the supreme law of this country. Where is the Lawyers Guild or for that matter the US Att. on this one?

Tim you seem to be terribly confused on who the agressors and law breakers are.

 Tim King: Not at all, the rights of American citizens, that so many have fought and died to preserve, are being denied by a government that is non sympathetic to the needs of its own citizens, yet highly responsive to enforce actions that draw attention to the morally corrupt banking practices that have nearly ruined this country.  Cops just take orders, they are able to resist being illegally violent, but they are not acting of their own accord until they go out of line.

As far as police not being trained as per your quote: "Police don't know threat, they don't have proper training to distinguish what a threat properly is."

 Tim King: I have spent time on military patrols in war with U.S. Marines, U.S. Army soldiers, British Royal Marines, Canadian Armed forces, Afghan soldiers, Iraqi soldiers, French and Italian, I presume I am getting my point across.  Now, in war where things are extremely politically sensitive, there are very specific rules as to when a member of the armed forces can 1) aim their weapon at another human being, 2) take additional action such as lethal force.  There is never a time that the military can employ deadly force against unarmed people, yet this is what the police are doing to our own citizens.  The Marine in this video is unarmed, that does not require anything else, a cop employing potentially deadly force on an unarmed person, it is wrong on every level. 

Have you attended and graduated from a police academy? Have you served as a law enforcement officer in an urban envioronment?

 Tim King: Almost all reporters have never attended a law enforcement academy, that is not even a good question to ask.  However I have been to many and I have seen most phases of police training in my career.  I also was an Oregon State Police volunteer years ago with their Fish and WIldlife program, I headed a Wildlife Rescue Team and had that authority at my disposal when I needed it. I also filled the role of park ranger at Cape Lookout State Park as the senior employee on graveyard shirt.  

You think many of the police have not arrested and put many bikers in jail? Go to any prison and talk to bikers, did they just walk into prison because they were guilty, or did the cops take them down? Of course you know that law enforcement has the highest percentage of veterans which also includes many combat veterans in any other civilian occupation outside of the VA?

 Tim King: There are a lot of  veterans who went into police work, I'm sure hopefully they are more sympathetic, but the ranks of police are not filled with a majority of veterans, I sincerely doubt anywhere close to half of police are vets.  

Then of course, everything that is happening in these protests is being recorded from literally every angle possible, or at least enough for any just, and prosecutor and defense lawyer to see what's happening. Don't expect to see many successful lawsuits against the police. I personally have been attacked many many times, and a few have used lethal force, they were stopped from ever doing that again. If these protestors dial up the criminal attacks, they will pay the price. Maybe you should attempt to learn more on what is really going on? Your streak of anti-authority, and hate for those who protect our civilians is showing Tim.

Tim King: I'm sorry, I really can't understand what you tried to say in that last paragraph.  Yes, the police brutality is being recorded, I also doubt if corrupt courts and judges will award settlements that involve the illegal actions of police because they all work in the same pool.  You talk about anti-authority?  Sure, that is the mark of any person who fights for the good of the public and common man the way I do.  The Nazi party ruled Germany in the 30's and early 40's, but the fact that it was 'government' and 'law' did not excuse their illegal actions.
