Fox News Defends Police Brutality

This makes me so angry I'm speechless. What do you think?

  1. Excuse me for chuckling. It is rather amusing that a blog of authoritarian statists would be complaining about the authoritarian police state.

  2. It is significant that Fox News would try to compare pepper spray to a condiment.

    No doubt they also think Mustard gas is a spray version of another condiment, one that goes with their vegetable serving of ketchup.

    Anonymous, you are another one of those people here who like to use your right wing dog whistle buzz words, but who really has no practical grasp of political science terminology.

    Just like Fox Newsies who think mustard gas and pepper spray are foods, rather than dangerously painful, or injurious, botanical products.

  3. I don't see what everyone is so upset about. The Occupiers want a government solution for everything and they got one. You would think they would be happy.

  4. FWM, that is an inaccurate characterization of what the Occupy movement wants.

    I'm curious if you rely on a variety of sources for your information, or just the right wing screeds which are consistently factually inaccurate to inform your views?

    You and RedAz seem to be listening to the same discredited sources for your information.

    Or is it that you are threatened by the support for and reasonableness of the occupy protesters, and so need to mis-characterize them as a defense mechanism?

    The Tea Party has never had anything remotely like this going on in support for their point of view.

    Poor you.

    You can explain how that's true? No, you're just talking through your ass, puking out what you get from Rush and Stormfront.

  6. That doesn't look like police brutality. Police brutality would be running them over with a bulldozer and taking an early lunch before hosing off the sidewalk.

  7. FWM makes a good point, even if it was rhetorical.

    Most of the Occupiers advocate the use of government force to increase taxes on those whom they think have "too much" wealth.

    Do they really have room to complain when that same government force is turned back on them?

    Why are jackboots okay on the necks of the 1%, but not the 99%?

  8. What we're seeing is more and more evidence that tasers and other non-lethal weapons aren't being used in place of guns but in addition to them. This is the problem. They've not decreased the police violence they've increased it.

    So, that means that you're one of the people who cheered the news that Rachel Corrie had been killed by an IDF bulldozer?

    What you describe is actually murder, but for big brave gunzloonz it's okay if you feel threatened, somehow, by other people protesting a policy which you likely know nothing about.

    So much fail in so few words. Let me know the next time you hear about any of the 1% being cuffed and hauled off to jail or pepper-sprayed while sitting still on the ground. You and the rest of the reichwing morons love to play the false equivalency game.

  10. O, LOOK!

    "In a disturbing story of out California, at least twenty people, including some children, were injured during the Black Friday rush at a San Fernando Valley Walmart. In an effort to be the first to get her hands on Xbox gaming consoles and Wii video games, one woman actually pepper-sprayed her fellow shoppers!
    Bob Decastro reported that police are still looking for the woman, who was actually able to check out and buy an Xbox 360 at half price! Decastro added that the store stayed open and shoppers went about their business after the incident."

    from here: http://foxnewsinsider.com/2011/11/25/shocking-story-20-injured-in-black-friday-pepper-spray-attack/

    So, when it interrupts the shoppin'frenzy it IS badstuff, as opposed to foodstuff? Foxing hypocrites.

    Tasers and pepper spray were never meant to replace guns. The whole purpose was to give police officers another tool to use.

    Bernie Madoff, Martha Stewart, and various other celebrities.

    Not all of them sitting still on the ground, but cuffed and hauled off to jail just the same.

    I didn't cheer, because she was a real victim of police brutality as opposed to these whiny brats who got a face full of taco sauce.
