Michigan AGW Executes Kid for Flashing His Lights

Guest Post by Eric Peters

This video is a few years old (2015) but many haven’t seen it, including me. I thought you might want see it. Rather, I think you need to see it.

It records a fatal traffic stop initiated by a Michigan AGW affronted by another driver flashing his headlights at him – apparently, because the AGW’s high beams were on.

The driver is a 17-year-old kid.

The kid is initially polite and tries to explain to the AGW why he flashed his headlights. He explains that he though the AGWs brights were on – and flashing headlights is a common way to convey that fact to a driver who may be oblivious to his brights blinding oncoming traffic.

Rather than accept this and let it drop, the AGW escalates:

When the kid tries to make a phone call, the AGW commences the Hut! Hut! Hutting! – ordering the teen out of the car, then threatening him with a Tazer.

Keep in mind, the kid pulled over, wasn’t remotely violent or threatening.

His offense – soon to be fatal – was failing to submit and obey.

The AGW – using IDF submission techniques – orders the kid to “get on the ground!” – in order to humiliate and degrade the kid. Who is a scrawny, unarmed and completely nonviolent 17-year-old kid. He hasn’t even committed a misdemeanor. The “safety” of the armed thug is mot in any danger.

But his Authority has been questioned. And that cannot stand.

“Get on your belly, right now!” the thug screams at the frightened kid. who is understandably baffled by the over-the-top escalation of the AGW.

The AGW then kicks the kid’s cell phone away and starts manhandlinghim, then Tazes him and then – seconds later – pumps seven shots into the kid’s back.

Deven Guilford is now six feet under.

His roadside executioner, “Sergeant” Jonathan Frost was – no surprise – cleared of any criminal responsibility for the summary execution.

This one ranks right up there with the murder of Daniel Shaver by AGW Philip Brailsford in Arizona. That murderous AGW was also acquitted of the murder he committed.

Guilford’s parents are suing the AGW and if they succeed, taxpayers will have to pay.

But “Sergeant” Frost won’t.

If we all would just vote in the next election, our government wouldn’t execute us anymore.

Way too many of these kinds of stories. How’d we get from “just the facts, ma’am” and “one adam twelve, one adam twelve” to shooting a kid who is laying on the ground seven times in the back? As incomprehensible as it is unconscionable and reprehensible.

That being said, the attorney being interviewed is right. From a legal point of view, whether the cop should have pulled him over, whether he should have ordered him out of the car, etc. doesn’t matter. It’s whether he had a reasonable fear for his life when he shot. Questionable, but apparently a jury thought so, and that’s the way the system works. And frankly, that’s the only way the system could work. A person accused of a crime – even a cop – has the right to a jury trial. Society has decided to give cops the benefit of the doubt because otherwise, no one would risk being a cop. People resist arrest all the time. If the kid turned belligerent and started trying to bat the cop away (hitting him) rather than lying there motionless, then the kid fucked up. The kid sounded drunk – which would have affected his judgment and could have stoked his “courage”. The fact that he’d started off with that “am I being detained?” stuff showed that he’s watched these kind of scenes unfold online, but he didn’t learn the part about it being suicidal to try to hit a cop. I’d rather my kids not learn their constitutional law from YouTube videos and approach interactions with cops the way you would an interaction with a pit bull or a semi that’s bearing down on you, about to run a red light while you’re in the crosswalk. Being “in the right” doesn’t do you any good when you’re dead.

He was dead right. Pick your battles. The cop might be wrong and he may even be convicted of a crime but it does you no good if you are dead.

When they went from being “peace officers” to being “law enforcement professionals.” A massive influx of ex-military folks most certainly didn’t help.

In the old days, communities would simply take care of their problems (generally the King’s thugs, or the government thugs) and nothing more would need to be said.

AGW? what does anthropogenic global warming have to do with this? I hate this fucking cop too, but not everyone knows your secret code.

Agree. I think it’s supposed to stand for Armed Government Worker.

There have been many instances of police errors, mistakes, and misconduct that have not been properly addressed, this being but another example of out-of-control “law enforcement”. From harassing honest citizens over minor disagreements, questionable shootings of honest citizens, to SWAT teams raiding “the wrong house”, smashing everything in sight, with no apologies to the occupants for their “mistakes”, there is something seriously amiss with law enforcement in this country. Militarization, along with the “us vs. them” attitude, seeing the general public as the “enemy”, treating the public with suspicion, many of those that comprise the “thin blue line” do much to alienate themselves from their “bosses”, the law-abiding public.

Police have forgotten that a little “Andy Taylor” can go a long way in soothing fears that the public has of law enforcement…

“Blow back” will arrive with extremely unconscionable and tragic results…
No humans in their right mind want to see anyone lose their life at the hands of criminals of any sort, even “law enforcement officers”–those who are charged with “keeping the peace”.
It seems that in today’s supercharged climate of “officer safety”, innocent civilian lives are being extinguished, with tragic results.

Part of the “problem” has to do with the elevation of “officer safety”, trumping “citizen safety”. It seems that honest citizens have been relegated to second-class “status”, being expendable whenever a “law enforcement” officer’s misperceived “safety” is threatened.

The hypocrisy is so blatant, that even with incontrovertible video and audio evidence, police-friendly prosecutors, along with “rubber stamp” grand juries STILL absolve rogue cops of wrongdoing. The public is not stupid, seeing through the double-standard that presently exists. This, in no certain terms, absolves anyone of responsibility for perpetrating unnecessary violence against “law enforcement”…

The sad part of this whole situation is that when the SHTF, the 99% of good cops will suffer, as those with “axes to grind” will see only the uniform and will be unable (or even unwilling) to differentiate between the “good” and the few “bad”…collateral damage at its worst.

Get this …

If this story is as presented … and if these “Good Cops” exist … the “Good Cops” would take of this person the same way child molesters are taken care of in prison. But, these persons are not taken core of … they are protected.

I wish it were false, but there is no such thing as a “good cop”. The few “good cops” who attempt to be fair in their dealings with their employers (the citizens who pay their salaries) usually end up leaving. You see, if a “good cop” gets into a situation where he needs backup, the “blue fraternity” (bad cops) will fail to respond.
There is a recent case of a “good cop” who was able to talk a despondent armed individual down and get him treatment. The “good cop” was reprimanded and fired for not using “deadly force” on the man.

Because they belong to a gang, it’s a legalized gang. Remember legalized frauds backed up with legalized violence.

I stay away from them like the rabid pigs they are, no such thing as a good pig, I mean good copfuk.

Here is a guest article that deserves the light of day:

No One Cares If You Go Home Safe At The End Of Your Shift

Posted by: Michael Z. Williamson

Here at the house, I have a couple of decades plus of military experience. I have tools to dig in or out of natural disasters. I have extinguishers and hoses. I have a field trauma kit and bandages. I have weapons both melee and firearm. I know how to use them. I know how to trench, support and revet. I understand the fire triangle and appropriate approaches. I understand breathing, bleeding and shock. I know how to detain, restrain and control. I have done all of these at least occasionally, professionally. I’ve stood on top of a collapsing levee in a flood. I’ve fought a structure fire from inside so we could get everyone out before the fire department showed up, which only took two minutes, but people can die that fast. I’ve had structures collapse while I was working on them. I’ve been in an aircraft that had a “mechanical” on approach and had to be repaired in-flight before landing. I’ve helped control a brush fire. I’ve hauled disabled vehicles out of ditches in sub-zero weather.

My ex wife has over a decade of service and some of the same training.

We have trained our young adult children.

My wife is a rancher who knows her way around a shotgun, livestock, sutures and tools, hurricanes and floods, and works in investigations professionally.

Our current house guest is another veteran.

This means if anything happens at the house, and last year we had a lightning strike, a tornado and a flood within 10 days’ we’re pretty well prepared.

Now, we’re probably better off than 95% of the households out there. The level of disaster that necessitates backup varies.

If we find it necessary to call 911, it means the party is in progress and it’s bad.

You will probably not be going home safe at the end of your shift.

And you know what? If it gets to that point, I really don’t give a shit. I don’t give a shit if you get smoked. I don’t give a shit if you fall under a tree. I don’t give a shit if you get shot at.

Because at that point, I’ve done everything I can with that same circumstance, and run out of resources.

If my concern was “you going home safe,” then I’d just fucking hunker down and die. Because I wouldn’t want that poor responder to endanger himself.

Except, that’s what I pay taxes for, and that’s what you signed up for. Just like I signed up to walk into a potential nuke war in Germany and hold off the Soviets, and did walk into the Middle East and prepare to take fire while keeping expensive equipment functioning so our shooters could keep shooting.

There’s not a single set of orders I got that said my primary job was to “Come home safe.” They said it was to “support the mission” or “complete the objective.” Coming home safe was the ideal outcome, but entirely secondary to “supporting” or “completing.” Nor, once that started, did I get a choice to quit. Once in, all in.

When that 80 year old lady smells smoke or hears a noise outside her first floor bedroom in the ghetto, she doesn’t care if you go home safe, either. She’s afraid she or the kids next door won’t wake up in the morning.

If I call, I expect your ass to show up, sober, trained, professional. I expect you to wade in with me or in place of me, and drag a child out of a hole, or out from a burning room, or actually stand up and block bullets from hitting said child, because by the time you get there, I’ll have already done all that. And there will be field dressings, chainsawed trees, buckets and empty brass scattered about.

I don’t want to hear some drunk and confused guy squirming on the ground playing “Simon Says” terrified you so much you had to blow him away. I don’t want to hear that some random guy 35 yards away who you had no actual information on , may have reached toward his waist band. Or that “the tree might fall any moment” or that “the smoke makes it hard to see.”

Near as I can tell, I don’t hear the smokejumpers, or the firefighters, or the disaster rescue people say such things.

But it’s all I ever hear from the cops. If you and your five girlfriends in body armor, with rifles, are that terrified of actually risking your life for the theoretically dangerous job you volunteered for and can quit any time, then please do quit.

You can get a job doing pest control and go home safe every night.

Until a bunch of fucking pussies with big tattoos, small dicks, body armor and guns blow you away for minding your own business.

Because what you’re telling me with that statement is, your only concern is cashing a check. That’s fine. But if that’s your concern, don’t pretend you’re serving the public. If you wanted to help people at risk of life, you would be a firefighter, running into buildings, dragging people out, getting scorched regularly.

If you’re cool with writing tickets, then there’s jobs where you can do just that.

If you want to tangle with bad guys and blow them away, fair enough. But understand: That means they get to shoot first to prove their intent, just as happens with the military these days. Our ROE these days are usually “only if fired upon and no civilians are at risk.”

If your plan is “shoot first, shoot later, shoot some more, then if anyone is still alive try to ask questions,” and bleat, “But I was afeard fer mah lahf!” you’re absolutely no better than the thugs you claim to oppose. All you are is another combatant in a turf war I don’t care about.

Since I know your primary concern is “being safe,” then I’ll do you the favor of not calling. Cash your welfare check, and try not to shoot me at a “courtesy” sobriety checkpoint for “twitching my eye “in a way that suggested range estimation.

If you’re one of the vanishingly few cops who isn’t like that, then what the hell are you doing about it? If there’s going to be a lawsuit costing the city millions, isn’t it better that it be a labor suit from the union over the clown you fired, than a wrongful death suit over the poor bastard the clown shot? Both are expensive, but one has a dead victim you enabled. So how much do you actually care about that life?

How is the training so bad that it’s not clear who is the scene commander who gives the orders?

How is it that trigger happy bozos who, out of costume, look no different from the gangbangers you claim to oppose, get sent up front to fulfill their wish of hosing someone down because “I was afraid for my life!”?

Why does the rot exist in your department?

If you can’t do anything about it, why are you still in that department?

At some point, collective guilt is a thing.

You’ve probably not been a good cop for a long time.

And I still don’t care if you go home safe. I care that everyone you purport to “serve and protect” goes home safe.

I’m not certain about this particular cop, but certainly that one in Arizona who shot the guy who was on all fours in the hotel hallway. A little vigilante justice might get the cops thinking straighter.

Further details, none of which I can verify:

“Guilford was pulled over by a sergeant with the Michigan State Police because of particularly bright high beams that he flashed at the police vehicle. The vehicle the sergeant was in did not have a dash cam. However, some of what transpired was caught on the teen’s audio on his phone. Guilford refused to provide the officer with his driver’s license, proof of insurance, or vehicle registration. The officer refused to provide his badge number. The officer had the teen lie on his stomach near his vehicle. During the process of handcuffing Guilford, the officer deployed his stun gun into the teen. After being tased with the stun gun, Guilford stood up. The two ended up in a ditch filled with snow. The officer claims to have been punched 10 times before ultimately firing 7 gunshots at Guilford. The teen died at the scene.”
