The curious grammar of police shootings

[Cissy]

Phrasing severely affects Perceptions.

So lets try some things here and change the phrasing based on the concepts of the Law. In this case lets use Innocent until proven Guilty so we can get rid of the word "suspect".

Robbery Suspect shot by Police.
Innocent Man shot by Police.

Its MSM Sensationalism, which is what really drives their Ratings. Problem is Sensationalism creates Fearmongering. Try changing the topic to something like Weather. It isnt just "Winter", it is a "Severe Horrible Snowstorm". It creates an Extremist Bias. "Worst Storm Ever". Not just a regular storm, but by creating the Extremist Bias, they are able to hold your focus on what they are saying something trivial such as "there is a wimpy pathetic storm coming in to the area which is expected to drop a measly twelve feet of snow per hour". This Extreme Bias can go the other way such as downplaying the severity of things as well. "The Cop was just doing his job". "... had reasonable cause to shoot the suspect". "Nuclear disaster is not a big deal". By carefully choosing their adjectives, they can UP PLAY or DOWN PLAY the perceived severity of every situation. "Police State is no big deal". "Fukushima is no longer an issue". Alternatively "ISIS is the most dangerous and extreme threat to the safety of the American People and must be eradicated".

Monopoloy on Belief that what you are told is true and factual and unbiased. Focus on what you are told to focus on and pay no attention to the things that are either ignored or downplayed. The economy is just fine. Nuclear Meltdowns are just fine. Starting World Wars are just fine. Police shooting everyone is just fine. Vaccines are perfectly safe. GMO's are perfectly healthy. Citizen Guns are all dangerous and only used to commit crimes. Gun Owners and Liberty Lovers and Ron Paul Supporters are all Criminal Conspiracy Theorists. 9/11 was perpetrated by "brown people". Total Surveillance is what you need to be safe. Giving up your Liberties for Safety is what you should do. You need Big Brother to protect you from Boogeymen. Computer Cars are what you need to be safe. Always they validate their existence and persuade you to give up every measure of contrl of your lives to those who do not have your best interests in mind. They NEVER appeal to your Logical senses, which causes a suppression of thinking, and ONLY appeal to your emotional senses. Youre a cold heartless bastard if you want to do away with Social Security and Obamacare because of all the people that need it. These methods are emotional manipulations that encourage you to become your own worst enemy. They get you to question yourself so that you surrender more self control to the Parasite Class.

Here is another common misperception: Brainwashing. People dont believe that Brainwashing exists in todays society because the only way to Brainwash someone is to put forth extreme efforts in extreme situations that forcibly alter a persons consciousness. This is done through the Suspension of Disbelief in fiction like Clockwork Orange and others where the technique of Brainwashing is performed by putting a person in a chair, forcibly opening the persons eyes, and subjecting them to a constant stream of Visual and Audio stimulus. This is NOT how Brainwashing works. It is MUCH more subtle, and is accomplished by carefully phrasing information so that each stage (there are roughly 12 in total) is impreceptible by the victims. The end result is that the victims only believe what they are told to believe, which is why I maintain the Monopoly on Belief, which is achieved through very advanced and subtle psychology and heavily focused on Brainwashing every single person, including those in the Govt itself. Psychopaths, such as many Police and Lawmakers receive different types of subtle manipulations to their already fragile psyches that they genuinely believe that more Facism will benefit everyone. Psychopaths and Sociopaths can be manufactured. Being aware of how Brainwashing works, as well as other forms of psychological manipulations are critical to being able to resist the adverse effects desired by those who pull everyones strings. The more you are able to consciously recognize these tactics, the less of an effect these methods have on everyone. Thus, it is important that when you spot one of these subversive applications, you call them out so that others are able to recognize them as well.

You mean: Police shoot innocent man. The media may use the passive voice to avoid lawsuits; it doesn't follow that we must.

Lawsuits for something like that would be a direct violation of the First Amendment Rights of the Press.

LOL - I have a stalker that is "one starring" many of my threads.

I think the dog killing threads are the ones that really upset him/her.

Fairfax County Sheriff Stacey Kincaid declined to comment on the case but defended the use of a stun gun on a restrained prisoner, saying it was “a means that is often useful to ensure the safety of a person” rather than using physical force to gain compliance. She said stun guns were used “occasionally” on prisoners who are already restrained.

Woman dies after US Customs boat collides with suspected smuggling craft

http://www.foxnews.com/us/2015/06/1...-suspected-smuggling-craft/?intcmp=latestnews

A woman died Thursday after a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) boat collided with a suspected people-smuggling vessel off the southern California coast.

Authorities said they spotted the small panga motorboat before dawn off the coast of Encinitas, Calif. They said it was crowded with 20 people believed to be trying to enter the U.S. illegally. Immigrant smugglers have been known to use open boats to sneak people from Mexico to the California coast.

CBP spokeswoman Jackie Wasiluk says agents ordered the skipper of the 26-foot-long boat to stop and fired warning shots when it kept going. The two vessels then collided, capsizing the panga and sending its occupants into the water.

Agents pulled the group out of the water and performed CPR on the unconscious woman. She was pronounced dead at a local hospital. The cause of her death was not immediately clear. Three other people were also hospitalized.

Wasiluk said it was not clear whether the pilots of the panga were transporting any other contraband. It was not clear whether the CBP boat had been seriously damaged.

Late Thursday, the Mexican government confirmed that the deceased woman was a Mexican citizen. A statement from the Foreign Relations Department said one other person was seriously injured and two others suffered less severe injuries.

An investigation into the incident is ongoing.

It was a 'collision', not a 'ramming', yet it wasn't an 'accident', it was an 'incident'.

How is that possible...?

Well thank God. I can't imagine the damage that woman would have done to the US, spending 25 years washing dishes or changing hotel bed linens.

Jailers Accused Of Forcing Female Inmates To Strip For Food

http://atlanta.cbslocal.com/2015/06/13/jailers-accused-of-forcing-female-inmates-to-strip-for-food/


Three former Pickens County correctional officers have been charged with making female inmates strip for food.
The three jailers, Demetrius Harris, Anthony Lavender and Chance Draper, appeared in court Thursday according to WBRC.
After female prisoners told the jailers they didn’t like the food they were being served, the three correctional officers said they’d give the prisoners doughnuts if they stripped and danced.
The prisoners stripped down and danced both partially and completely nude.
“Female inmates were doing nude dancing for the jailers on video,” Sheriff David Abston said.
After the video surfaced and an investigation was completed, the three jailers were fired.
An indictment was made stating that the jailers used their positions of power in an unethical way to provide the female inmates with gifts and favors in exchange for stripteases.
“They compromised our officers and the officers are paying the penalty for it,” Abston said.

“They compromised our officers and the officers are paying the penalty for it,” Abston said. The women were so deprived of edible food that these guys could get a pole dance out of them for a donut, but these same women were the ones compromising these pure as the driven snow kops.

Cue the sad violin music.

The cause of her death was not immediately clear.

Getting run down by a bunch of 'roided up assholes in this:

...had nothing to do with it, of course.

 

[Anti Federalist]

The police reports, claim that Walker “escorted her to the floor,” or that he “rolled her to the floor.”

On the report of a cop that body slammed an 18 y/o girl to the concrete and broke her teeth out.

When sexual assault of a minor becomes, simply, "Too intrusive" and that corrective actions of unnamed specificity should be enough of a punishment against the hero, or heroes, that made sure minors were drug free.

It's definitely not just shootings.

...and two law enforcement personnel were killed when the helicopter they were in crashed.

Is there any reason to believe the powerplant failed? I don't believe helicopters have autopilot--there's no reason to believe the pilot didn't fly the thing into the ground.

Just had an engine problem in my helicopter and I'm still alive. Helicopters can fly for a short distance after engine failure...

Helicopters can be flown for a short time after engine failure. And, yes, the motion of a falling helicopter can be used to speed up the blades, and the momentum of the blades can then be used to soow the descent. Arguably, though, that has less to do with 'flying' and more to do with controlling the crash, which is why I said what I did.

In the end, left to their own devices, helicopters tend to be dumb as rocks--and just as susceptible to gravity. That one in Virginia almost certainly didn't crash the pilots. I think it's safe to say the pilots crashed it.

I wish there were more information about this incident but I have not been able to find any. All that I've found is that it crashed and two dead. No details at all. Haven't seen much as far as witness accounts or photos of the crash scene or any reports of gunfire (if there was any). It seems that we will hear nothing until the NTSB report which will not come out for at least a year...
