American Resistance calls for war on county sheriff.

PRINCE GEORGE COUNTY, Maryland - June 20th, 2009 - Yesterday, the Prince George’s County Sheriff’s Department announced that its internal review found that its officers did nothing wrong in the unconstitutional SWAT raid on Berwyn Heights, Maryland Mayor Cheye Calvo’s home.

Last summer, officers intercepted a package of marijuana at a delivery service warehouse. Despite the fact that they already knew of a drug distribution network in which dealers were sending packages of marijuana to random addresses with the intent of having them picked up by accomplices working for the delivery companies, the Sheriff’s Department raided Calvo’s just seconds after his mother-in-law brought the package into the house with no investigation into who actually lived there.

Police and county officials have since admitted that Calvo and his family are innocent. But they stubbornly refuse to acknowledge any wrongdoing, such as not doing the least bit of investigation before sending the SWAT team to take down Calvo’s door, not knocking and announcing before entering, or slaughtering Calvo’s two Labrador retrievers.

In fact, Prince George County officials have been stunningly callous about it all, at various points praising the officers for their “restraint,” and commenting that everyone involved in the investigation and raid “deserves a pat on the back.”

So the announcement yesterday that the internal review cleared the department isn’t surprising. But Sheriff Michael Jackson’s comments at the accompanying press conference are really something to behold. From the Washington Post:

The findings of the internal review “are consistent with what I’ve felt all along: My deputies did their job to the fullest extent of their abilities.”

In an interview, Jackson reiterated his explanation that a scream by Calvo’s mother-in-law, Georgia Porter, who saw officers in SWAT gear running toward the house, justified the shooting.

Porter “corroborated that she did scream out ‘SWAT.’ She admitted to that, and [Calvo] admitted to hearing that upstairs in the house,” Jackson said. “That threw out the procedure of knocking and announcing, because now [officers were] compromised.”

One dog was shot four times by the front door. Calvo said his younger dog was running away from officers when it was shot twice, including once in a hind leg. Jackson said deputies thought the dog was running toward another deputy in the home.

“I’m sorry for the loss of their family pets,” Jackson said. “But this is the unfortunate result of the scourge of drugs in our community. Lost in this whole incident was the criminal element. In the sense that we kept these drugs from reaching our streets, this operation was a success.”

First of all, the police intercepted the package at the warehouse. At that point, they had already kept the marijuana inside from “reaching the streets.” Everything that happened next was at the discretion of the officers who carried out the investigation and raid well after the marijuana had already been confiscated, which means they and they alone own the results of the raid.

Second, what happened to Calvo isn’t the “unfortunate result of the scourge of drugs in our community,” it’s the result of a bumbling, overly aggressive, wholly incompetent police department. And it’s the result of a drug warrior mentality that believes invading someone’s home with guns and filling their pets with bullets is an appropriate response to a possible violation of state marijuana laws. The raiding cops didn’t bother to notify the Berwyn Heights police chief before sending in the SWAT team, which would almost certainly have tipped them off to their mistake. They didn’t bother to do any investigation at all of who lived at Calvo’s residence. Their first resort was to use the most overwhelming force possible.

Third, the purpose of a knock-and-announce requirement is to notify a home’s occupants that the police are outside to serve a warrant, and to give them the opportunity to come to the door and prevent the use of force and violence. Jackson’s excuse that officers feared Calvo’s mother-in-law’s scream when she saw men in black running up the lawn tipped off the drug dealers inside doesn’t fly. Because, again, the entire point of the knock-and-announce requirement is to “tip off” occupants that the police are outside.

Finally, Jackson’s comment that “my deputies did their job to the fullest extent of their abilities” may actually be the only accurate thing he said yesterday. Just not in the way he intended.

Call the Sheriff’s Department and voice your thoughts and feelings about the murderous cabal of criminals who wear a badge in Prince George County. Tell him that if you are ever stopped by one of his thugs you will fear for your life and therefore will be prepared to shoot any Prince George County thug with a badge. After all, you are entitled to do so if you fear that they might shoot you first.

Don’t do it! Don’t be a snitch and a traitor! Don’t take their blood money!

WEST PALM BEACH, Florida - June 19, 2009 - Live in a rough 'hood surrounded by gun-packing thugs? Quick cash is a phone call away.

Under a new program announced this morning, anyone who spots people packing heat in West Palm Beach can call Palm Beach County Crime Stoppers anonymously and could receive a $500 reward.

The West Palm Beach Police Department will cough up $500 each time such a phone call leads to recovery of the weapon and an arrest for unlawful firearm possession.

Police say the program, modeled after similar efforts in Miami and Orlando, is different from traditional gun buyback programs because it seeks to nail the gun-wielders themselves.

"Ours actually goes after the felon," West Palm Beach police Lt. David Bernhardt said. "When you see the thousands of dollars we spend on a criminal investigation, $500 is nothing."

The police department has set aside $5,000 for the program - enough to dole out 10 full rewards. Bernhardt said that if it is a success officials will find money to continue giving out payments for gun arrests even after the initial money is depleted.

"We hope this will help to alleviate the violent crime," he said.

Ed. Note: Anyone who participates in this criminal enterprise is both stupid and a traitor. Anyone who actually expects the State to do what it promises is an idiot. The State will give excuses as to why the traitor is not eligible to receive the promised reward. Additionally, if you are foolish enough to snitch on your brethren, then I guarantee that you too will be placed under investigation by the West Palm Beach Police Department. Remember: THE POLICE ARE THE ENEMIES OF FREEDOM!

Call the Chief of Police and tell her what you think of these fascist and unAmerikan tactics she is using. Tell her that Adolf Hitler would be proud of her. Put the fear of We the People into her; let her know that we will find out where she lives and that she had better watch her back, or resign as police chief!

WASHINGTON - June 17, 2009 - Outspoken Republican Rep. Michele Bachmann says she's so worried that information from next year's national census will be abused that she will refuse to fill out anything more than the number of people in her household.

In an interview Wednesday morning with The Washington Times, Mrs. Bachmann, Minnesota Republican, said the questions have become "very intricate, very personal" and she also fears ACORN, the community organizing group that came under fire for its voter registration efforts last year, will be part of the Census Bureau's door-to-door information collection efforts.

"I know for my family the only question we will be answering is how many people are in our home," she said. "We won't be answering any information beyond that, because the Constitution doesn't require any information beyond that."

Shelly Lowe, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Census Bureau, said Mrs. Bachmann is "misreading" the law.

Ed. Note: If you know what’s good for you, do not provide any information whatsoever to a Census taker, except perhaps a warning to get off your land or be shot. If you wish to engage the Census taker in dialogue, I suggest you ask for a written guarantee, signed under penalty of perjury by a Member of Congress, attesting to the fact that information you provide will not be abused, misused, or used for any purpose other than to determine your representation in the House, and that the Census taker who shows up at your door agrees to accept full liability and responsibility in the case of such abuse; when the Census taker provides you with the required guarantees and agreements, then and only then will you answer his/her questions. That should resolve the matter quickly and satisfactorily.

DENVER, Colorado - June 17, 2009 - A Denver police officer has been suspended after allegedly brandishing his gun at a McDonald's restaurant in Aurora after his order took too long to fill.

Aurora police confirmed the CBS4 investigation saying the incident occurred May 21 at the McDonald's at 18181 East Hampden Avenue.

A spokesperson for the Aurora Police Department said they plan to present the case - now classified as a felony menacing incident - to the Arapahoe County District Attorney's Office Thursday for possible filing of criminal charges.

Sources familiar with the case, and the fast food worker's account of what happened, say two off-duty Denver police officers placed an order from their car in the early morning hours of May 21. But once at the drive-thru window, the employee said the men became agitated and angry at how long their food was taking. The men thought they were being ignored, according to contacts familiar with the worker's account. The male clerk then said one of the officer's flashed his police badge and pointed a pistol through the drive-thru window in a threatening manner, before driving off without paying.

Both officers are assigned to Denver International Airport although only one has been placed on administrative leave with pay, pending the outcome of the case.

Ed. Note: Remember, when a cop is placed on administrative leave with pay, he is receiving a paid vacation! That’s some deterrent, isn’t it?
