It will come as no surprise that this author is a White Suburbanite with conservative and antiquated views on many of todays social issues. If you wore a pink pussy hat to a protest, well let us just say we might not become besties.
While we probably could not come to see each others’ viewpoints on the proper scope of government’s role in our lives but we can can agree on a simple truth.
The police should not be choking people to death in the streets.
I’m a realist so I prefer is / is not rather than should. Should is the realm of dreamers and philosophers. I don’t live there.
So, let us put that idea into operation.
The police ARE choking people to death in the streets. And shooting them.
Most of the time the proceeding offenses are so minor they would not warrant jail time. They aren’t capturing Ted Bundy or the Green River Killer here.
These are the acts of an invading army. Much of the former United States is now ruled defacto in such a way.
There are many excuses given. “Most cops are good people” That phrase is thrown out frequently. But if one of my co-workers was kneeling on someone’s neck for 5 minutes I think I might at least mention that we got em cuffed….you can stop now. But three OTHER officers assisted in killing said suspect.
They are not good people
And to flip the phrase They are bad people.
You see why we get the logic of that out. Throughout history it takes good people to stop bad people. So what I lay out below is a response to the fact that these are bad people.
Our founding document lays it out this way:
“But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.”
Its nice to say, but the violence and chaos that came after cannot be under-stated.
If I so chose, I could grab some gear, take the trip to Minneapolis, assess the situation with help of google earth, and pick my rooftop.
In the chaos of the protest turned into riot be the police themselves, the crack of my rifle would go unnoticed. At first the commando’d up cops would assume some sort of projectile from the crowds in front of them were the issue. But after five or six fatalities they come to realize they were taking fire from the rear.
Chaos ensues as people who think they are ready for a battle find out they are actually losing one.
I collect my spent cases and make my way back from the Midwest.
This is what I want to avoid. At all cost. I DO NOT WANT A WAR. And neither do you.
Civil-disobedience seemed like the way in the late 1950’s through the late 70’s. It’s useless. We as a nation are so divided know no one cares about your march anymore.
But there is middle way. Invading armies are always defeated in long term.
And so I’ll teach you how.
Lets call it civil-maleficence. Or the theory of Selectively Breaking Shit.
Modern policing is all built around vehicles. A pedestrian police force can not act in the fashion we have become accustomed to.
This simple truth is all you need to turn strategy into tactics. The more you can immobilize, slow down, or simply destroy vehicle infrastructure the more you can handicap their movement’s, the faster you will get the change you want in the world.
It’s kid’s play to burn a police car. Don’t do that. Insurance pays out, they get a new car. They won you lost.
Instead you try things that take time to fix and items that need fixing pile up.
Project 1
Meet you new best friend: https://www.homedepot.com/p/GREAT-STUFF-16-oz-Big-Gap-Filler-Insulating-Foam-Sealant-Quick-Stop-Straw-99053938/207050533
With a long enough straw inserted in the tailpipe a car goes nowhere. And none of them will for quite some time till they catch on. No mechanic ever checks for exhaust obstruction first thing.
Keep a paint thinner rag in a ziplock to clean up your mess. Bonus points if you can get it done at the officer’s residence.
Your new friend is a big can of glue. You can use it on anything. Wipers. Hood gaps. Door Gaps. Brake rotors. Trunk gaps. Fill in radiators.
Project 2
An old favorite. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ninja_rocks
Though I have never heard the term the concept rings a bell. Crush up old spark plugs. The shatter any and all auto glass EXCEPT windshields. Quickly, with very little force. You six year old daughter could do it. Auto glass is expensive. And if you need a lot of it you might be waiting.
Project 3
You are gonna need gloves. And Bolt Cutters.
Cop cars are insanely hot during the summer due to a couple hundred watts of equipment. A car with no A/C is going nowhere.
As you will be going underneath a vehicle you may need a buddy for a lookout. Find the AC thing that looks like a radiator. Cut it. Keep your body away from the escaping gas.
Project 4
Best Bang for the two bucks. https://www.autozone.com/tire-repair-and-tire-wheel/tire-valve-stem-core-remover-tool/slime-4-way-tire-valve-stem-core-remover-tool/487510_0_0
This friend is one of the quickest immobilizers. With four buddies you can remove the core if the tire valves in 15 seconds and recycle them in the nearest storm drain. Much safer than slashing tires. But that works too.
Project 5
These friends make forward visibility impossible
Little Friend: https://www.joann.com/glass-etching-cream-10oz/13156328.html
Big Friends: https://www.etsy.com/listing/720433817/ferric-chloride-43-solution-etchant-for
These friends need gloves and an applicator.
Project 6
These friends only work together
www.homedepot.com/p/Stanley-4-lbs-Fiberglass-Engineer-Hammer-56-204/100654919
https://www.homedepot.com/p/Dasco-Pro-1-in-x-12-in-Cold-Chisel-G419/100507479
They stop lubricant and coolants from working. Oil pans. Transmission Pans.
Also note that headlight assembly’s and lightbars are expensive.
Project 7
This friend is a gold-digger. She only works for well healed civil-maleficents.
https://www.milwaukeetool.com/Products/Power-Tools/Fastening/Impact-Wrenches/2769-20
Very few police cars have locking lugnuts. No need for a jack. Recycle the lug nuts in your nearest storm drain.
So that’s enough friends for today.
We will follow up with more Projects for Good People.

There are MANY, MANY, MANY kneegrows that do not wish to be arrested for their misdeeds when confronted by the police. And, unfortunately, they resist and need to be physically restrained. I would hope that you would volunteer your services to teach those police how to properly restrain and arrest a kneegrow when said kneegrow wishes to remain unarrested.
Nicky numbfuck – they arrested the guy just fine. Then choked him to death in broad daylight in front of witnesses filming the entire thing. Kneeled on his neck for nine minutes, 4 of which with him being unconscious.
That is some kind of brazen. They believe the can do anything and get away with it, they do not give a shit for the welfare of the public, and they have to be stopped. Now. All of them.
You are an imbecile.
There is a BIG difference in arresting someone and choking them with your knee after they are cuffed. The next time it happens, the crowds will not sit back and let it go the distance.
I hope your detractors here never ( have to) call the constabulary to help or protect them from miscreants, criminals or even a breakdown on a lonely stretch of highway.
Proposing to damage police cars in revenge for an unintentional death are the thoughts of a clearly immature and deluded basement dweller if not a complete fucking imbecile.
‘unintentional’….idiot
bootlicker
Minneapolis Police Academy describes their training structured as paramilitary training. my guess – it’s part of the Israeli Defense Forces training offered to US police depts, often taking place in Israel.
We are all Palestinians, now…
Up-vote x 100.
You should put on a badge and work in down town Baltimore , Chicago, Detroit, Philadelphia etc.
I think your mindset would change fairly quickly as those you serve and protect spit on you while you try to keep a lid on the carnage occurring around everyday that never ends.
It’s called a thin blue line for reason. If the police truly catch the ” blue flu ” and stay home, you will find out what plague really is in America and you will have to fight the infection yourself.
Police don’t do shit. When seconds matter, they are nowhere to be found. People spit on them because they choke people to death in broad daylight.
If the police stay home, people will police themselves, which they fucking are not allowed to do now. Me and my neighbors can police our areas just fine, thanks. Store owners, too, if they are allowed. In the LA riots, the Asians policed their shops ok when the cops fucked off. Law abiding citizens are prevented from protecting themselves by the cops. No cops, and they will likely be safer.
The stupid, it fucking burns around here.
“If the police stay home, people will police themselves”
You’re a full blown fucking retard for that statement alone. You’re little fucking libertarian/utopian dream may work in a sparsely populated world with 2 people per 10 square miles but ain’t going to work in the big, mean city with several million assholes waiting to steal your shit and fuck you up, Genius.
You have no fucking clue. Go suck some more cop dick and leave the thinking to men. Cops do not do shit to protect the citizens. Look how they are protecting MN now – hiding under their beds like the cowards they are. Let the people handle this shit, and they will.
99% of what cops do is domestic violence and traffic enforcement.
When they try to do anything else, they just fuck it up.
I live in a rural “utopia” because I chose to, although it took me a number of years to finally arrive at my destination some 16 years ago. As for the cities and their ferals, well, nuke ’em from orbit, it’s the only way to be sure. Best not to waste time and money on tax-feeder cops; those days are past.
You goddamn idiot. It’s like none of you even know the history of law enforcement in this country. Fucking Pinkerton rejects.
Micky, No white man or woman has any business policing in Baltimore, Chicago, Detroit, Philly, or any other place dominated by non-white people. In most of urban America, negroes dominate the culture. Whatever account they should be held to should be determined by negroes, enforced by negroes, tried by negroes, and punished by negroes. Anybody white involved in any of that is either dishonest or foolish. No exceptions.
Bingo! And the Republican Party has no business running a candidate that gets 10% of the vote just to provide a fig leaf of Democracy.
If you remove the boggy man , the snake will eat its tail.
So laws are not to be applied equally? 4 legs good, two legs bad.
But I know what you mean. The truth is diversity is not a strength. Tell you what, all you white cops can patrol my neighborhood and I’ll will bring you donuts.
“Should be” does not apply, however reasonable it may be. Reason has its place, but it’s in short supply in urban ghettos and their outlying environs. How many believe that an all negro police force would do much of anything?
They would have a great intramural jungleball team.
Unfortunately, no model or template of a Black majority effectively governing anywhere in the world exists that I am aware of. Quite strange really.
This is not some kind of spontaneous eruption predicated on seeking justice, it’s a carefully orchestrated social dynamic engineered at the highest levels. You don’t pump racist/racist/racist white people 24/7 for 25 years without the expectation of blowback. You don’t empty the prisons or engage in a constant catch and release unless you want criminals at large. You don’t arm up the police like military units unless you want people to perceive that you live in a police state. Etc. etc.
The destabilization of the West is intentional. The destruction of tradition, community, nation and family has been a project that the globalists have been working at relentlessly for a very long time in order to hoover up everything of value and keep people in a perpetual state of fear and anxiety.
This is a set up.
HSF, You are correct, it is a “set up”, in a way. The whole socio/economic/cultural scam is a set up, and has been coming on for decades. I wonder if the sociopaths who plan to own everything as this mess unspools are as good as they seem to think they are. Looks to me like things could get completely out of hand in the blink of an eye, and all the globobillionaire crew could wind up with a handful of ashes.
Brian.
They don’t care. They only care that they own us.
“…things could get completely out of hand in the blink of an eye, and all the globobillionaire crew could wind up with a handful of ashes.”
Lucifer asserted that Heaven was imperfect and rebelled, yet knows that in the end his rebellion cannot succeed. Nonetheless, he so hates the Father’s authority that he is willing to be destroyed himself if, in the process, he can destroy all that is good and beautiful in manifest creation.
My simple-minded take.
My father was in local law enforcement before making a career switch to corrections. He spent 30 years in that environment, starting as a lowly “CO” and finally retiring as a Captain.
When he entered corrections, a new recruit had to actually spend an entire weekend locked in a cell, so they would understand the psychology behind incarceration, and to be a better CO. It worked. My father always told me “We are not hear to punish prisoners. Their jail sentence is the punishment. We are hear to enforce the rules and make sure everyone is safe.” He despised lazy, incompetent COs and supervisory staff, because they made his job harder and endangered the life of fellow COs and prisoners alike. Corrupt COs were the bane of his existence, yet due to unionization of this employee sector, they were difficult if not impossible to get rid of. In the end, a man who should have risen to the rank of at least Deputy Warden retired at Captain. Not because he was a bad man, but because he was a good one. The reward for doing right is punishment, derision, and being “cancelled”. The reward for toeing the line, shutting your mouth, doing just enough to get along and make it to the finish line and collect your pension is promotion and perks.
Police, and any law enforcement sector now, are armed to the teeth like members of the armed forces. They wear massive protective gear. The entire look is meant to be intimidating and make every office look like a faceless, robotic automaton.
There are no classes, to my knowledge, in de-escalation or negotiation. It’s shoot first and worry about the blow back later, and really, don’t worry because generally the consequences will be purely administrative if any at all.
How does a person become an officer that thinks absolutely nothing of taking a life during a no-knock raid at 3AM? Shooting a family dog in front of children in broad daylight in their own yard? Keeling casually on a man’s neck until he’s dead in front of dozens of witnesses? Raping handcuffed women in the back of your cruiser in exchange for her “freedom”? Dealing drugs stolen out of evidence lock up to the very same people you would arrest for doing it?
When you have become that man or woman, you are most certainly an “officer of the law”. The law which has implemented The War on Drugs. Civil Asset Forfeiture. No-Knock Raids. Red-Flag laws. All very much unconstitutional yet here we are.
The only way to remove the hydra’s many heads is to starve it out. Taxes, boys and girls, are the manna from heaven that sustain the monster. Take away the cheese and the rat leaves.
I think we shall see a very big law of unintended consequence when tax revenue is no more, and violent corrupt police forces are pared to the bone. The only ones that will stay are the ones that really care about the people they are sworn to protect.
in the long run, true- but they will fight tooth and nail all the way down. Tax revenue not sufficient to keep them living comfortably? theyll raise rates, again and again. theyll crank civil asset forfeiture a.k.a. armed robbery, all the way up to eleven. Theyll be stopping and fining and arresting people 24 hours a day shaking everyone down for every last cent they can get… when will that stop? when people start to shoot back, and the most criminal of them are taken out of the picture. maybe then would it be possible for the situation to return to something legitimate..
Now, in most of the US, you people are amazingly lucky in that your law enforcement is largely local and the loop to an elected official , also local, is a very short one. In most of for example europe we will first need to figure out how to reestablish truly autonomous and sovereign local governments and organize our own forces of deputies, milita yeomen, whatever one calls it, because right now in most cases local government (even if supposedly ‘elected’ is controlled or beholden to the central government, and police are a regional or even nationally centralized hierarchy , i.e. the local cops do not take orders from the mayor of the city or a locally elected sherriff etcetera. same for judges, and so on. so it’s going to be even worse here. the ‘system’ will hang on even longer and have to be replaced pretty much in one huge and catastrophic move. they wont go away without trying to take the rest of society with them, and most of society has yet to even wake up and figure out whats going on.
Excellent comment. Should be a stand-alone post.
The Great Society did it’s job…it allowed the black community to destroy itself and get them voting for the Demonrats forever .
I should dust off my copy of Michael Crichton’s “State of Fear.”
We don’t have to look very far to have a better understanding of how this has evolved. The media sets the narrative in what and how they report racial violence. If you are black and watch CNN you watch the propaganda 24/7. Every time a black person is treated unfairly, the media plays on the emotions of the public until the next event happens.
When black on white violence occurs it is usually overlooked. Same often happens regarding black on black violence.
The bottom line is it is the job of mainstream media to divide and conquer. They have succeeded.
I missed that. I was too busy rioting and burning down stuff because of the outrage over the 20 yr. old dindu in Detroit who was posting videos of himself beating helpless crippled white people in a nursing home, punching them in the face dozens of times.
Pretty stark contrast in how the media beats the drum depending on the goal of the drummer.
One good thing to come out of this mess – we are not talking about the “deadly virus” right now.
Those masks did come in handy for the looters though.
I am fairly certain many of them were Antifuques and are quite familiar with masks.
Here is a guest post that explains our present abusive police situation:
No One Cares If You Go Home Safe At The End Of Your Shift
Jan 02, 201812:50AM
Category: Politics
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.
Ice pick the sidewalls for a slow leak
You’ll find this a little treasure and may come in handy in the future. Presented with a hat tip to our Vets like Mark, Flea and others I’m forgetting right now.

One of the benefits is you can toss them without incurring a huge loss.
Never bring your favorite pistol to a crime because you may have to toss it in a storm drain.
The old sugar in the gas tank trick is a sure fire way to stop the engine.
Rather than pulling the valve core, just loosen it so it leaks out in an hour or two. Give them a flat in the hood where they are sitting ducks.
The topic is not who is right or wrong. The topic is what to do about oppressive government and you guys are turning it into a legal debate.
The most effective anit government tool is KIDNAPPING THEIR CHILDREN.
Nearly all kidnappings are never reported and are settled with ransom. The Feds don’t want you to know that.
Kidnapping and anti-kidnapping is a big industry but never advertized for a reason.
Never bother with removing valvestem valves when a pair of good side cutters will cut the valstem quickly as you walk by.
Throw a 50 50 solution of gas/oil in a two litre plastic molitove down a manhole and melt the fiber optics.
Let the Splivs riot while you do the real mischief. We have nothing left to lose except our dignity and that is quickly evaporating as we near Pavlovs dog time.
Do you really believe for a minute that Trumps EO regarding social media is going to help us little guys? Time is short. Use it!!!
I had to see it myself. Learn somethin’ new every day. The ceramic triggers the tension of the tempered glass against itself. From sparks to shards to shattered glass. I know there’s a metaphor in there somewhere.
