Unless an Actual Crime is Being Committed, Please Avoid Calling the Police!

The following debate originally took place upon the Facebook wall of family, after they shared a photo they took…

Sara: Wtf is this? Is he about to shoot up the train?

Sulv M.: OMG!!! thats scary. is that real

Sara: Yes, dude looks very serious too. I don’t even wanna get on the same train as him.

Sulv M.: why would he be out with that? maybe you should tell a cop

Sara: Its like he’s showing off. The gun looks rigged with some kind of zip tie but I can’t tell what type of weapon it is. I’m on the train now. I just hope he’s not on the same one.

Janelle F.: Holy shit. I would’ve called the cops.

Sulv M.: thats scary! looks real. its illegal to have a fake black gun so he could get in trouble if its fake.

Thomas P.: I wouldn’t even take a chance. I would just call it in and wait for the next train.

Mark K.: It’s probably a paintball gun.

Sara: Mark, that’s what I was thinking but dumb move to be walking around like that looking like a psycho.

Genaire: Paintball gun. You can see the screw area for the co2 canister.

Janelle F.: Well, I still wouldn’t go anywhere near the guy. He can still shoot someone w/that thing.

George G.: Hope you waited for the next train

Sara: We’re home now. Not sure what train he got on but it was a paintball gun according to my friends here. Either way I’m glad to be far away from him.

Sherry A.: Omg anyone could grab that

Thomas P.: Common sense would dictate that isn’t the way you would walk around these days.

Genaire: Common sense would actually dictate that you would get into more trouble from attempting to conceal the weapon.

Thomas P.: Question is- is it a weapon?

Janelle F.: Read up to the convo about it being a paintball gun. ^^

GenairePaintball guns can do serious harm. With this stop and frisk nypd seems keen on doing I would want my paintball gun on full display.

Rayn: It’s just a paintball gun, so calling the cops is the ultimate slave’s answer! Such a move would only give NYPD thugs the opportunity to engage in another tax-funded public execution of a peaceful, innocent individual! (Click Here to Continue Reading This Post)

"From overseer to officer: the history of policing in America"

“From overseer to officer: the history of policing in America”

#FROMOVERSEERTOOFFICER #UAPTSD BY #AARONLEAF AKA #IRATE
Colonial America experienced an increase in population in major cities during the 1700s. Some of these cities began to see an influx of immigrant groups moving in from various countries(including Germany, Ireland, Italy, and several Scandinavian countries), which directly contributed to the rapid increase in population. The growth in population also created an increase in social disorder and unrest. The sources of social tension varied across different regions of Colonial America; however, the introduction of new racial and ethnic groups was identified as a common source of discord. Racial and ethnic conflict was a problem across Colonial America,including both the northern and southern regions of the country. Since the watch groups could no longer cope with this change in the social climate, more formalized means of policing began to take shape. Most of the historical literature neglects to document the events that took place in the southern region—specifically, the creation of slave patrols in the South.
Slave Patrols
Slave patrols (or Paddy Rollers) first emerged in South Carolina in the early 1700s, but historical documents also identify the existence of slave patrols in most other parts of the southern region .Samuel Walker identified slave patrols as the first publicly funded police agencies in the American South. Slave patrols were created to manage the race-based conflict occurring in the southern region of Colonial America; these patrols were created with the specific intent of maintaining control over slave populations. Three principal duties placed on slave patrols in the South during this time, including searches of slave lodges, keeping slaves off of roadways, and disassembling meetings organized by groups of slaves. Slave Patrols were known for their high level of brutality and ruthlessness as they maintained control over the slave population. The members of slave patrols were usually White males (occasionally a few women) from every echelon in the social strata, ranging from very poor individuals to plantation owners that wanted to ensure control over their slaves. Slave patrols remained in place during the Civil War and were not completely disbanded after slavery ended. During early Reconstruction, several groups merged with what was formerly known as slave patrols to maintain control over African American citizens. Groups such as the federal military, the state militia, and the Ku Klux Klan took over the responsibilities of earlier slave patrols and were known to be even more violent than their predecessors. Over time, these groups began to resemble and operate similar to some of the newly established police departments in the United States. In fact, By 1837, the Charleston Police Department had 100officers and the primary function of this organization was slave patrol, these officers regulated the movements of slaves and free blacks, checking documents, enforcing slave codes, guarding against slave revolts and catching runaway slaves.” Scholars and historians assert that the transition from slave patrols to publicly funded police agencies was seamless in the southern region of the United States.

Rayn: Indeed! KRS-One agrees!

Gun-Free Zones Only Enable and Embolden Mass Shooters

The following correspondence originally took place upon the Facebook wall of my friend, Jonas A…

Jonas A.: This dude does have a very good point…that’s why random shooters don’t target police stations….

Concealed Carry + Mass Shooting = More Carnage?:

Rayn:  Gun-Free Zone = Guaranteed 100% Defenseless Victims

“Gun-Free Zone Guaranteed 100% Defenseless Victims”

Brian K.: You seem to assume that guns are the only means of defense

Rielly J.: I myself am a libertarian thus I embrace the non aggression principal so it’s obvious that I support gun ownership. The thing that differentiates the non aggression principal from pacifism is that it does not preclude violence as a form of self defense or the defense of others.

Jonas A.: Very true….weapons of any kind should only be used as self defense…nothing should deviate from my libertarian principles either!

David C.: this dude knows whats up. thanks for sharing this!

Rielly J.: The non aggression principal is even incorporated in to our national seal: the eagle holds 13 arrows (the symbol of war) in one talon and an olive branch in the other and it is looking over the olive branch. We are supposed to be a nation that prefers peace but is comfortable with war (although this is not how we have been since the late 80s)

Jonas A.: You’re most welcome! And yeah, non-aggression as defined by the national seal or our constitution should not be a piece of paper, which is what current admins have been doing since Reagan…

The State’s Wars Are Theft

The following correspondence originally took place upon my Facebook wall, after I posted artwork from the page, “We’re Getting Robbed“…

Rayn:

“Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in a final sense, a theft from those who are hungry and not fed, those who are cold and not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money, alone. It’s spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children.” Dwight D. Eisenhower

Allison H.: Keep rockin girl. You always hit it right. And often make me cry. Good job!

Rayn: Thank you, Allison. I appreciate your kind words.
