Why'd the Cop Shoot a Therapist With Hands Up Helping a Retarded Guy?

The reason for the shooting is a mystery. I guess it's a community thing. People who know the policeman that shot a physical therapist laying in the street with his hands up who had been helping a retarded, obstinate, autistic charge who had runaway and was playing with a toy, might be able to explain why.

In a nation of 320 million people dumb things happen. there are many dumb things that happen in the naked city and this is one of them... http://www.nola.com/crime/index.ssf/2016/07/charles_kinsey_shot_hands_up.html

Charles Kinsey wasn't killed-he was shot in the leg. Still, there is a serious problem with competence at some level in the event. At least Kinsey was tough enough-he said the bullet felt like a mosquito bite.

 Even police forces have members that aren't the brightest bulbs, and North Miami is hot. Someone made a wrong 911 call that said someone with a gun was threatening to kill themself-plainly pure fiction loosely derived from what was observed. Police people might have bought it hook line and sinker and filled their heads with images of threats, guns, immanent death etc. before arriving. Then, dumb as a polecat they saw the autistic guy with a toy car in his hand in the middle of the street, took him for a psychiatric interventionist and shot the actual therapist who was laying down with his hands up as an ISIS threat  or whatever that should be shot a little to calm things down. It is an incredible report that should provide an interesting explanation.

update- The explanation turned out to be that the cop was trying to shoot the patient-the retarded kid with the white toy truck-and the cop was as bad of a shot as he was at making a judgment judgment to shoot.

So, no problem-he was trying to shoot a white kid and accidentally shot a black guy in the leg. he did not have an intent to harm a black life that matters to him.

Profuse Propaganda from the Majors This Year

This isn't an in-depth investigative article-just a remark that the media seems full of propaganda this year with inaccuracy and hyperbole or plain falsehoods almost normal. Anything to get people to read or click on an ad.

The Atlantic, normally a respectable publication put out some b.s. today about Trump as Putin's agent and Hillary running officially against Putin. It is full of logic errors and baloney. Its policy opinions are simply wrong besides. Those opinions are good for business aggressors seeking land and territorial expansion that were promulgated by the Clintons and Bushes yek destabilize and divide east and.

An example of misdirection was a story about an 'explosion' in Ankara 'just days after the coup'. Readers would check it out and discover that it was actually a house fire. A house fire utting out smoke in Ankara is not a terror or coup related explosion. Yet people would click on and the ad revenues roll in.

Cruz at Convention; "America is Not Just a Land Mass Between Two Oceans"

Ted Cruz speaking at the Republican national convention spoke emotionally of the slaughtered Dallas policemen and several elementary civics concepts for quite a while. Notably he said that America is not just a land mass between two oceans. He said that the U.S.A. was founded upon five famous words I'd never heard before. I thought he would say "In God We Trust, Amen" or something like that. Instead he "We want to be free." I think that is more suitable for a Mel Gibson movie, the founders probably said things like 'dump the Brits', let's kick their butts' or they can eat sh...

In eloquent language the founders wrote the declaration and constitution, yet they were rugged individualist already free unwilling to be further oppressed by globalists. Ted Cruz got several elementary civics platitudes right and erred in refusing to endorse the Trump candidacy. It evidently is Ted's way or no way...and people will remember that in 2024 if he decides to waste the public's time again.

Scientific Skepticism & Epistemological Nihilism Due to Evolution

Some scientific fans of atheism are epistemological nihilists and unfamiliar with Bishop Berkeley's Three Dialogues. The points about idea-ism aren't new. Berkeley wrote them in 1713. Plato also described the phenomena in a different way in The Cave section of The Republic.

http://www.earlymoderntexts.com/assets/pdfs/berkeley1713.pdf

One can find a quantum basis for ideasim. Even so reality is a reference again to all of human experience perceptually. A mountain may have a foundation in the crust of a planet without negating the validity of its summit appearance. Relativity exists not only in plain matter and motion, it exists in all frames including the psychological. The Universe has time and motion as implicit attributes of matter. Perspectives of change occur within a changing paradigm. An ultimate, epistemological ground of being might occur only within spirit that transcends the relativistic virtual reality that's being and becoming.

I enjoyed reading Tegmark's 'The Mathematical Universe' and recommend it. The search for a quantum unit that is fundamental is abstracted to relationships. One may call those numbers I suppose, with ordered relations. It is no less philosophically interesting to consider pure spirit entailing quanta and ordering all space-time existence within spirit. Tegmark doesn't take that sort of approach. Bootstrapping some sort of way for monism to generate pluralism is easier in the mind-spirit of God context than as one-dimensional monads that appeared or existed forever and generate ordinal expanding series even as numbers that do seem odd.

Opportunities for F-35, F-22 If China Declares Air Zone

If China declares an air zone over the China Sea opportunities for air to air combat simulations with a quality air force will present for the U.S. military that haven't occurred in some time. Live drills with real opposition force aircraft are rare opportunities in the modern world. The F-22 and F-35s haven't had enough practice with Mig-29s to determine if they can clear the way through for stealth bombers.

With luck China will declare an air exclusivity zone that can be disassembled methodically, and maybe. the Philippines can declare its own air exclusivity zone over the China Sea with the United States as its rental air power for a dollar a year.

China should focus on alternative energy and projects with Warren Buffet's investment entities rather than intimidating S.E. Asians. The Beijing government has not meaningfully put down the North Korean nuclear missile threat and that is not appreciated. It may be that one day those nuclear missile will launch their way rather than west.

Time for Doped Olympics to Heal Schism?

Pro athletes have been known to use dope to enhance performance as have amateurs. Even bike riders use every sort of dope advantage that cannot be traced for a while to get to the finish line first. If there were a special Olympics for dope using athletes and pro sports dope leagues with queer athletes on steroids there is a probability that some people would watch it and everyone concerned with that sort of mess would be happy enough. President Obama could be the godfather of Queer, Doped Olympics and Pro Sports perhaps taking command of FIFA too.

Melania Trump-Learning From Michelle

If Melania Trump's fine convention speech borrowed from Michelle's 2008 speech, that should be taken as a compliment; the next first lady looked to the present for a role model. Michelle Obama is entirely not to blame for Barrack's bad foreign and domestic policy choices and failures to separate himself from the lawless tendencies of the Black Lives Matter movement that has been looking to blame police officers for years. When President Obama's son that he never had Trayvon Martin was the viral news and protest body the White House just didn't make it plain that mob protest does not complement the legal justice system. Blacks have the highest racial group percentage of convicted felons in America-those people often ‘hate the pigs’, and that evolves through to the B.L.A. movement I would think.

Melania Trump's speech delivery was the main point; she was flawless and engaging in that; a first lady that would be preferable to Zillary's caustic presences with crusty Bill as her first dude mouthpiece teaching student interns how to bake cookies.

 

I suppose their are just so many ways a woman might describe an elephant or donkey as the case may be. It is more a matter the public getting a chance to meet the prospective first lady than to learn about policy details. In either case I think it improbable that either Melania or Michelle wrote their speeches unsupervised if at all.

Do two crooked lawyers make a right? Does Hillary plus Bill add up to one honest, forthright lawyer? Whatever Michelle's relation to her own speech was (writing it entirely or not), she did not say that Barack would lead the nation to homosexual marriage and the Middle East to civil wars, 20 trillion dollars of public debt etc.

My Opinion About Alaska Government Budget Failures

The Governor and legislature should be fired, voted out of office, removed from their duties and competent people elected, appointed or otherwise brought in as replacements.

Since the time of ancient Roman politicians and governments have found ways to balance budgets even honorably on occasion. A student of history may recall, perhaps from reading Livy, that the Roman Senate in times of public distress appointed a Dictator for a year at a time to address a present public danger. That is an illustration intended to express the point that other politicians have faced similar and greater challenges and found ways to respond competently. Alaska politicians are not experiencing anything new or unprecedented.

Romans also appointed a master of the horse, yet the military situation is more of a problem for the federal government than the state regarding the budget crisis. The Alaska legislature may not need to find a benevolent dictator to solve the state budget problems, yet the comparison is useful to underscore how ineffective they are at getting the job done.

It would be possible to take extreme economic measures to directly balance the budget if it were really needed. One could just cut the state budget 50% and triage the surviving financial needs. Like poor people that can't afford a home the legislators could meet outside and live in a tent city on some existing state land saving oodles of money. If it is really needed to be cheap they could spend as little as Alaskans in government before the pipeline.

I slept outside on the ground a winter in Anchorage myself and know its quite possible to survive and get written work done. Politicians and constituents could share a coffee over a propane stone and have a sense of shared sacrifice. If they weren't overly comfortable bureaucrats could balance the budget and leave the PFD alone.

If the state of Alaska were hit by a real series of disasters rather than an economic one of their own making they could cut the budget 50% and/or redirect the money to the necessary directions that would address right issues.

For bureaucrats worried about paper, front loaders could stop at various government agencies and collect the stuff in garbage bags and move it into dump trucks. Then it could be removed and transported to some cold storage facility with a vacuum to prevent degradation of material. Everything should already be digitally recorded though, and the paper redundant.

President Obama's Wussifying Policies May Stimulate Police Killings

Police Shootings Are Too Common

The steady escalation of Black Lives Matter protests of incidents of police killings of black Americans seems to have spawned a shadow of death killing policemen that follows the Black Lives Matter movements. I believe the F.B.I. Behavioral Analysis Unit models probabilities of where select crimes may occur. Locations where B.L.M. protests have occurred must be in the red zone.

President Obama's recalcitrance to consistently and convincingly condemn attacks on police officers, expressing understanding and tolerance for ‘the other side’  implicitly implying some sort of equality of equation elements hasn’t been helpful. Neither are the tragic killings something to panic about.

During the Obama administration anarchy, chaos, civil unrest and civil war have increased across the Middle East and Europe.The Muslim presence as terrorists has increased globally while mass public social media have brought several methods for inspiring individuals to commit acts of terrorism off-the-shelf as it were, at the sacrifice of their own lives. The United States was not immunized against such developments by the lack of Presidential leadership.

Gavin Long,the killer of Baton Rouge police,was a former Marine Sergeant, well versed in killing with a long gun. Black marines and other military personnel exposed to radical Islam abroad are susceptible to taking war into their own hands domestically it seems if the political winds deem it ripe.Given the usual difficulties of adjusting to civilian from military life, the President should make damn sure he does not give any impression about being sympathetic will protest instead of legal justice where and when legal justice is not as corrupt as the budget balancing portion of government. One would think that the late Sgt. Long would have trusted in Ruth Bader Ginsberg and the like for justice.

Just yesterday while playing internet chess I was verbally attacked (in print) for being an American. My opponent from overseas called me all sorts of  insulting names to distract me from winning the 3 minute game. From a winning position I got just a draw. If President Obama hadn’t queered marriage in the U.S.A. I probably would have won that chess game because my opponent would have had no basis for making that sort of insult demanding my reply in the midst of the game. It is rotten to be lumped in with a category of immoral people for simply being a citizen of a nation. The President probably liked stimulating hatred of the U.S.A. and bringing people abroad to feel people in America are wussy faggots.

Noble & Sterling Shootings-My Opinion

Firstly I am just interpreting the video of the two incidents. Dylan Noble seemed to be committing suicide by cop. Since he appeared to be white Black Lives Matter won't care.

The police shooting protocol was rather disgusting however. The first shot was reasonable yet the remainder weren't needed. After being shot people probably would tend to thrash about rather than obey instructions since that hurts. Shooting someone in pain in negligent and seems cowardly. I suppose the police aren't cowards though-they simply act as if they are union shooters in a video game. No charges should follow if laws weren't broken. Fresno OD policy should change on extra shots though.

I always give a bear a warning shot if its approaching and never had to shoot one yet. Police need to have enough confidence with basic pistol marksmanship so they can wound and not kill a subject as if they were soldiers on a battlefield- for whom anything else than a kill shot would be unreasonable. It woud be useful for police to have the power to discern where to place a bullet accurately and at least try...a certain degree of risk would not be the union way yet it would be an honorable way. There is no crime in shooting for a leg, missing and having to duck if the suspect really has a pistol hidden and returns fire requiring the kevlar protected patrolman to drop and fire with more lethal intent a second shot.

The Baton Rouge convenience store store shooting of Alton Sterling is also nothing to protest about. The police seem quite guilty of something taking the fat man down and putting a gun on his chest as if it were a staple gun and firing center of mass point blank four times.

At best it could be aggravated manslaughter, at worst first degree murder with a fake 9-11 call from co-conspirators that wanted to get rid of commercial competition from the street. A semi-automatic pistol is not a staple gun and it was not o.k. to put four rounds into his heart. Maybe one in the shoulder from that range would have made Sterling easier to handle. What clowns.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bxw7xd5vlmY
