It’s highly unlikely that this is practice for real and actual terrorism. This is practicing a shoot out. Terrorists rarely seem to engage in an old fashioned shootout with police. It’s far more likely that these tactics are to be used against any type of resistance to government, which according to the government would be a form of terrorism. Even protesting is a form of “low level terrorism” according to the DoD and FBI.
From the video description
Seen on June 6, 2013 at Figueroa and 5th St. in Los Angeles. This LAPD drill, clearly more for show than practice, took place at noon on a Thursday during lunch hour. Thousands were in attendance.
LOS ANGELES - Los Angeles County prosecutors say a former police officer has been sentenced to 19 years in prison after pleading no contest to sexually assaulting five women while on duty in 2006 and 2007.
The 1992 Los Angeles riots, also known as the Rodney King Riots, the South Central Riots, the 1992 Los Angeles Civil Disturbance, and the 1992 Los Angeles Civil Unrest, were a race riot/pogrom and subsequent looting and civil disturbance that occurred in Los Angeles, California in 1992 following a police brutality incident. It was among the largest riots in US history.
The riot was first started in South Los Angeles and then eventually spread out into other areas over a six-day period within the Los Angeles metropolitan area in California during April in 1992. The riots started on April 29 after a trial jury acquitted four Los Angeles Police Department officers of assault and use of excessive force. The mostly white officers were videotaped beating an African-American named Rodney King following a high-speed police pursuit. Thousands of people throughout the metropolitan area in Los Angeles rioted over six days following the announcement of the verdict.[1]
Widespread looting, assault, arson and murder occurred during the riots, and estimates of property damages topped one billion dollars. The rioting ended after soldiers from the California Army National Guard, along with U.S. Marines from Camp Pendleton were called in to stop the rioting after the local police could not handle the situation. In total, 53 people were killed during the riots and over two thousand people were injured.[2][3]
After the riots subsided significant actions were undertaken in the Los Angeles Police Department including the retrial of the police officers involved, increasing minority officers in the police department, analyzing excessive force, resignation of the police chief, loss of support for the Mayor of Los Angeles, and analyzing the general political and economic atmosphere that contributed to the riots.
Cops are building a massive database of public movements
“There is no crueler tyranny than that which is exercised under cover of law, and with the colors of justice …” —U.S. v. Jannotti, 673 F.2d 578, 614 (3d Cir. 1982)
Give me your honest definition of a police state, and I will introduce you to US legislation and government behavior that appeals to your definition. I'm serious.
If you're the type of
person who thinks "some cops are good", please, read this before you send me
hate mail.
On this blog, you will find political and legal quotes, political content, of course police brutality, and evidence of the existence of a police state in the USA. You'll also find a blatant and
embarrassing record of failure in the Criminal Justice System. This blog is not for conspiracy theory.
