What have we become - but the so called enemy we fought and despised? Cops who lie and beat and assault homes without warrants and then lie in court about that? Beating of peaceful protesters? Police trained by mercenaries, used as "profit centers" rather than to "protect and serve'".... Now more then ever we need strong honest leaders who will speak up and out and will demand that the Constitution be protected and enforced. We need honest cops to be encourage to speak up and to refuse to participate in illegal activity. We need to fully fund public defender offices and utilize all lawyers to challenge this dangerous spread of lawlessness among those who are given our trust. There must be a return to full jury trials and jury "muni" courts and more sunshine laws into police and 'enforcement' agencies All these agencies must employ an independent ombudsmen to promote full disclosure and openness. Police need to return to the goal to protect and serve not merely control and generate revenue.

_Cops Beat The Living Hell Out Of Peaceful Tibetan Protesters IN AMERICA_ (http://www.infowars.net/articles/march2008/250308Protesters.htm) Unbelievable video of beatings outside UN building Steve Watson _Infowars.net_ (http://www.infowars.net/index.html) Tuesday, March 25, 2008 (javascript:(function(){var u='http://www.infowars.net/articles/march2008/250308Protesters.htm'; var t=escape(document.title); var c = '';if (window.getSelection){c = window.getSelection();}else if (document.getSelection){c = document.getSelection();}else if (document.selection){c = document.selection.createRange().text;} window.location='http://www.netscape.com/submit/?U='+u+'&T='+t+'&C='+c;})()) Disgusting video footage of New York cops clubbing and arresting peaceful Tibetan protesters who were merely walking down the street has gone relatively ignored beyond Youtube. While stories emerge out of China every day of police beating and killing Tibetan protestors in the streets, the same sort of behavior by cops in America tells its own story. The footage was shot at a free Tibet peaceful assembly in New York on the 14th of March. It shows the protestors holding flags and signs and peacefully walking down the street towards the UN building in the Turtle Bay neighborhood only to be accosted by police officers with batons. One officer identified as "Delgado" is seen in the video pushing people as the group crosses the street. Another officer, identified as "Serano" is caught threatening to kill two protesters as the cameraman passes. He later admits to the threat and apologizes for it. (Article continues below) As the group nears the UN building, cop cars and vans screech onto the sidewalks, cops pour out and begin to beat the protesters with clubs as UN security guards observe without becoming involved. A non uniformed officer, who seems to be directing the entire operation, then orders the cameraman to step back and move away. "Look at these cops, clubbing people in front of the UN, unbelievable, protesting to free Tibet, cops clubbing people in their legs on the sidewalk, in front of the UN in America, unbelievable, this is not China." the American cameraman announces in disbelief. The officer identified as Serano then forces the cameraman away from the melee, telling him to shut the camera off and that he will not talk to him because he may be a reporter. Several officers then follow the cameraman asking him about his recording of the incident. video at the link ===================== **************Create a Home Theater Like the Pros.
