I originally posted the following information and commentary onto my Facebook wall…

Officer Regina Tasca attempts to stop fellow cops from using excessive force against a "suspect"

Bogota Officer May Be Fired For Stopping Beatdown:

Plenty of cop “beat downs” can be found online, but how often does the officer who stops others from handing out the beating get fired for it? That’s exactly what’s happening to Officer Regina Tasca in the Bogota Police Department.

Tasca’s dashboard camera captured her as she attempted to stop two officers from beating an emotionally disturbed young man. Just days after the incident, she was told she was being suspended with pay. A year later, her trial is about to begin as the Bogota PD seeks to fire her.

(Read entire article here…)

My Commentary: She sees a crime in progress by fellow officers, stops it, and she’s suspended for it! Apparently, she didn’t realize that the biggest gang in America wears blue and carries a badge!

Police: De Facto Tax Revenue Collectors for the State, or Simply “Doing Their Job”?

The following debate originally took place upon the Facebook wall of family…

"I know you were only doing 2 mph over, but if I don't write 100 of these tickets a month, I will be fired."

“I know you were only doing 2 mph over, but if I don’t write 100 of these tickets a month, I will be fired.”

Genaire: Must be quota time in NJ. The highway state pigs – oops, I mean “troopers” – are out in force fucking with people.

Terrence B.: Oh stop it! They got too work too. Smh! If not idiots would be dropping the needle then what? Lol

Rayn: They’re “just following orders,” right? SMH! During the Nuremberg trials, the Nazis attempted that EXACT defense strategy, yet the international community staunchly REJECTED it as PURE FALLACY! http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Nuremberg_defense

QUOTAS were already established as UNCONSTITUTIONAL by the American court system. Therefore, if an officer is given “orders” to engage in such criminal activity, it is his DUTY as a CITIZEN FIRST, to REFUSE, and then FILE A COMPLAINT against his superior! Attempting to claim job security as an excuse for violating our civil rights is just a pathologically pathetic EXCUSE for TYRANNY!!!

It was Monday, August 15, 2011, just a few minutes after 4:00 pm, and I was in Wood-Ridge, New Jersey, walking down Highland Ave, trying to clear my head. I found myself heading down the same path that I had discovered while wandering some months earlier, also trying to clear my head. As I crossed 7th Ave, heading towards Valley Blvd, suddenly, the sky started pouring rain, and water started to quickly pool on the sidewalks. I had no umbrella – only a jacket and a baseball cap to protect me – so, I started to get uncomfortably and soaking wet, especially my boots.

Donnell T.: MAN KEEP DIS SHIT OFF MY FUCKIN PAGE FAM!

Sara: That’s fucked up, first of all it’s not “shit” that’s my sister speaking the truth. If you can’t handle it, why don’t you watch Fox 5 where they speak the “truth”, like Bill O’Reilly, and get your news from there.

Last Prince: 1. 2. 1. 2.!!!!! Damn B, U ain’t even tagged in this clip don’t know how it is even on Ur page!!!! But like Sara says its the Truth!!! Guess some catz would rather remain in the dark!!!! But regardless, Peace 2 U B!!! And Keep doin’ Ya thang in the ‘Ville!!!!! I’ll be back @ the Crib Soon to get some of that MidWest footage!!!

Louis G.: keep doing your thing rayn..dont mind the haters…atleast you rapping about something real.. something you believe in..keep it positive always..fuck the negativity..do what you do..

Rayn: Thanx for the support, friends and fam! Just remember that I give no credence to strangers calling my work “SHIT.” Negative comments like these are just VAGUE and USELESS to me. They do nothing to constructively help me improve my craft, (nor were they meant to)! I tend to ignore them, unless they are highly offensive (which is not the case here)!

Last Prince: 1. 2. 1. 2. !!!! True Dat!!!
