Mother-of-four, 31, stripped naked by police pepper-sprayed and left for hours in a cell over a misdemeanor.

'There are lots of rules about how a strip search is conducted, but this was not a strip search. They weren't searching her for anything. This was sexual humiliation.' Nice. And they wonder why we consider them more of an army of foreign occupation than we do "peace officers."

Another excellent example of why I will NEVER allow myself to be arrested.

This is basically Abu-Ghraib-on-the-Ohio. I've seen the security footage and I agree this was NOT a search, it was a sexual assault. Then I read the article, and I find the government attorney's comments very telling... denying this was like Abu Ghraib. She doth protest too much, methinks!

All of the perps involved in this should be forcibly sodomized with pineapples; it is the only fitting punishment when these jackboots do this to innocent people.

Hmmmm....seems like some cops are into S&M.

Sodomized with a pineapple? Why the leniency? Why not use a .12 gauge flechette round? A real attention getter, me thinks! And,,,,, no recidivism to bad behavior.

The media are busy trying to establish tenuous links between the Las Vegas killers and every commentator to the right of Lenin, but has it ever occurred to them that maybe, just maybe, what set these two off was a steady delivery of news like this?

Police in this country are running roughshod over the citizenry, and are thoroughly unapologetic about it. You get people like the two in Vegas, who already have a screw or two loose, and the sheer arrogance of these abuses is probably all it took to make them snap.

The media echo chamber seems to think feasible answers range from rounding up all gun owners to preemptively throwing everyone into a psych ward. Has it never occurred to them that the answer might be something as reasonable as, oh I don't know, having the police revert to a respectful constabulary rather than roided up Einsatztruppen on the Eastern Front?

The Floyd County Sheriff's office has shut down its email. When you call their office to chastise them, you get the runaround.

As always, a large wager on "Nothing comes of it," please.

Understand that what you're seeing, MissAnthropy, is only a SMALL portion of "Law Enforcement" crimes against Mere Citizens across this country. The Media understand that the Blue Wall gives them what they need to sell their product:
"If it bleeds, it leads" and also understand that if they CROSS the Only Ones, they can quickly be cut out. They usually report what they are told without question, just as they did last fall when the FBI agent murdered that man in Orlando. Then a few weeks later they ran an interior-page story saying "Well that wasn't quite right, but it will be a couple of months before we decide what really happened." And surprise, surprise, the Orlando DA decided to not prosecute. Best estimate I have heard recently is that the Blue Wall murders roughly 500 innocent Mere Citizens each year. And the LVMPD are among the top "producers". Along with the Albuquerque Police Department, of course...
