Kansas City, Missouri: A federal judge ordered a now-former deputy sheriff to pay $2 million to a 15-year-old girl he forced to give him a blow job. He pleaded guilty to violating the girl’s constitutional rights and has been sentenced to prison for 14 years

Excessive force is 30 police cars to catch one guy, arresting him, and then dragging him like a dog across the pavement and pinning his head down with your knee in an act of domination. To the police, it’s a war zone out there. It’s cops vs everyone else. This is what they’re taught. This is why their behavior sucks. And incidents like this are indicative of that cop mentality, even if this incident is not as tragic as some of the others.

The proposed ban would include semi automatic rifles with detachable magazines and semi automatic pistols with the capacity to shoot more than ten rounds of ammunition before reloading.
