Who's Policing the Police?
How the Police & Courts use "the Drug War" as an excuse to rob, like the Mob!
Most of us are against drugs that cause all kinds of problems, deaths, addictions, & destroys lifes, when abused. Most of us also are thankful for the police when an emergency or life threatening situation happens. However, the shocking reality is that too many in the police departments around the US, and in certain high up government positions, & very high up officials in Governments of Mexico, the US & others nations have profited greatly off the manufacturing, distribution & sales of illegal drugs!
Add to that the temptations of the "legal" robbings that are going on with police seizures of cash & properties after "busting" people they've sold drugs to. Or people who are alleged to have drugs or particals of detectable drugs on them, sniffed out by some police dope dogs. Then add to that, how the courts & lawyers cash in on Lawyer fees, (if the person can even somehow come up with the cash to defend themselves against, in some cases, false charges), and then there's the expensive court fines too, & loss of freedom through imprisonments!
Thus, the so-called "drug war," is one of the biggest government scams and "crisis" used to take away our freedoms, private properties, and enslave the masses into paying court fines, lawyer fees, as many non-guilty people have to demonstrate that they're not criminals!
Ironically too, is how many of those in power, are alleged to be guilty themselves of drug running! But while the common person is smashed down, their lifes ruined, their entire life savings seized, and their private properties robbed or "abolished" in this manner, taken from them; those in power aren't put under the microscope of the faulty present day legal system, where making money seems to be the addiction of the many of the courts, judges & lawyers! ( The Case Against Lawyers by Catherine Crier (Hardcover - Oct 2002). Yes, many in very high positions in government, use those positions to rob like the mob! Making billions in the whole process! It's another way to rob the masses like the mob!
"While the US government publically appears to be fighting the war on drugs, it is actually the principal supplier to the millions of drug users in America. While it sends recreational drug users and small time dealers to prison, it is making billions of dollars from their covert CIA drug smuggling operations." http://www.geocities.com/northstarzone/DRUG.html
HORRIFIC CASES IN POINT!
"The police department in Sulphur, Louisiana, a community of 20,552, fought the drug menace by seizing about $5 million between 1990 and the end of 1994. Speeders on Interstate 10 are pulled over and those with a lot of cash are identified. Their cash is seized if narco-dog smells drugs on it. A successful seizure is likely, since virtually all our currency has trace amounts of cocaine. The Sulphur police and D.A. do not seem to care about the actual guilt or innocence of the cash-carrying speeders, however, as criminal charges are rarely pressed." (See:
http://www.independent.org/newsroom/article.asp?id=323 The American Drug War: Anatomy of a Futile and Costly Police Action July 10, 2000Bruce L. Benson, David W. Rasmussen ).
The Sulphur police cash confiscation policy, after learning how much money other agencies were making, like that of the Sheriff in Volusia County, Florida; also started using the seizure laws to rob like the mob! For what was seized from motorists on Interstate 95 during a 41 month 1989 -- 1992 is frightening! How many were drug traffickers? Who can say, for few charges were filed, thus, no public record can be verified. Many motorists that had their cash robbed by the police mob, didn't "get their money back even when the seizure was challenged—even when no proof of wrong-doing or criminal record could be found and the victims provided evidence that the money was legitimately earned. Instead, the sheriff’s forfeiture attorney handle settlement negotiations. Only four people got their money back. One went to trial but lost and has appealed. Facing high civil litigation costs, the rest settled for 50 to 90 percent of their money after promising not to sue the sheriff’s department. Of course, they also had to pay a third or more of the returned money to their attorneys. Their crime? They fit a “drug profile” and they made the mistake of driving through Volusia County with cash in their pockets. Is the sacrifice of the innocent and of their civil liberties worth the effort in the case of the war on drugs?" http://www.independent.org/newsroom/article.asp?id=323
"Personal property and business assets may have been seized and ordered sold at public auction by state and federal agencies for tax reasons and/or for various illegal activities." http://www.seizedpropertyauctions.com/faq.htm#que1 But what if there are too many seizers that are done to people who haven't been officially arrested, or legally proved to be involved in illegal drugs?!
"The Supreme Court seems to think that anything is permissible in the name of fighting crime. On June 24, 1996, United States vs. Ursery, the court ruled that civil punishments in addition to criminal punishments do not constitute double jeopardy. Asset forfeitures came to prominence in the war against drugs. They have not dented drug use but they have made thieves out of law enforcement officers." http://www.comeandtakeit.com/natlcops.html#FORFEITR http://www.akdart.com/abu4.html
Jarret Wollstein warns how the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), "is seizing the luggage, cash and cars of hapless travelers. Under America's new civil forfeiture laws, mere possession of a large amount of cash or a drug dog barking at your luggage is sufficient probable cause for police to legally seize everything you are carrying."!
Jarrent lists numerous cases in point:
1. 2-2000, Albuquerque, N.M., DEA agents stop Sam Thach, on Amtrak, robbing $147,000 in cash. He had no drugs! His "crime?" He'd paid cash for ticket, didn't give Amtrak his phone # ("Railway Bandits," Reason, July 2001, p. 14).
2. 6-5-2001, they rob $640,000 from Jennifer Leigh Ames, on Amtrak, 6-5-2001. DEA Agents claimed she looked nervous & refused permission to search her luggage, ("Railway Bandits," p. 14).
3. 6-22-1999, even former Newwark N.J., cop, Carlos Hernandez, suffered this form of abuse, when he found officers looking through his Amtrak sleeper cabin, demanding to see into his luggage! His "crime?" He’s Hispanic & paid $694 in cash for ticket, ("Railway Bandits," p. 15).
4. Houston’s Hobby Airport, cops detain Ethel Hylton, 49, seize her luggage all because a dope sniffing drug dog scratches it. Agents search her bags, strip-search her, but find no drugs. However, they did find $39,110 in cash! It's from an insurance settlement & her life savings, earned from over 20 years of hard work as a hotel housekeeper & hospital janitor. She completely documents where & how her legal efforts through years of hard work had gotten her the money in question. "But the police kept her money anyway. Destitute, she had no way to fight them." ("Presumed Guilty: The Law's Victims in the War on Drugs," Andrew Schneider & Mary Pat Flaherty. Reprinted from the Pittsburgh Press, 8-11-16, 1991, p. 5-6).
Jarrent goes on with this shocking aspect of this "legal" robbings going on by police, courts & government agencies!: "These outrageous seizures are completely legal and have been upheld by the highest courts in the land, including the U.S. Supreme Court. The DEA's Web site claims, "Property is seized by the DEA only when it is determined to be a tool for, or the proceeds of, illegal activities such as drug trafficking, organized crime, or money laundering." But the above examples show the reality. Under civil asset forfeiture, your property – not you – is charged with a crime. Hence the bizarre title of civil forfeiture cases: "United States vs. one 1998 Mercedes Benz," "California vs. 1711 Main Street," and so forth. Once your property is charged with a crime, it can be seized and kept by police, even if you are never convicted of anything. An appeals court in Florida even ruled that police can personally receive bounties of 25 percent of the value of anything they seize from you, such as your car, bank accounts or home." (Jarret Wollstein, Government Property Seizures out of Control, article, Sat. 5-30-2001: http://archive.newsmax.com/archives/articles/2001/6/27/191414.shtml ).
Often, properties & cash is taken by police who charge people with breaking the many "laws" that the common person knows very little, or anything about! If your car is impounded, it cost them a lot to get it back, if they even can. The present system makes it near a "mission impossible," to get back your property! The victim could have to pay towing fees, lot holding fees, and other fines, & fees they don't know about too. Not knowing the "law" is no excuse, they say!
Jarret goes on to warn how that there are 400 federal offenses & thousands of state & local "offenses" by which your money, autos, bank accounts, & home can be taken! Including shoplifting, hiring illegal aliens, which is ironic, when there are high officials in the government, like Bush, who are pushing the US consitutional destorying "North American Union" or NAU scam, where there'd be no "illegal" lines to cross, when going from Mexico, US to Canada! Another inconsistant aspect of the present legal systems!
In New York, if you play your car stereo too loud, guest what? Yes, they can take your car! If you transport "illegal fireworks," gamble, have illegal drugs on your property, which can be easily planted, if they want to rob you of the home you've been slaving away for years to pay for, with high interest charges from the banks! Well, they can take your home & rob you of every asset you have! Leaving you without the funding you'll need to have to hire a competent lawyer, $15,000, to "prove" your not the bad nasty evil "criminal" your made out to be! Of, course it's hard to also earn enough money to pay for a lawyer, when your in jail, or prison too! So who would have to come up with the money that goes back into the present corrupt "legal systems"? Your family or friends! They're probably have to sale their own assets to help you, even if they can! If they can't, your screwed!!!
So much for our rights to owning private property! They've found ways around that one, in this "legal" robbing of America, in the name of "the Drug War"! Even to discuss "violating" any "law," (which free speach is called "conspiracy"), to "underpay" your taxes, can get your assets seized too! So much for the Ammendments & Bill of Rights that protects freedom of speach!
They can rob you of your hard earned pay check, even though one of the many taxes, the income tax, is said to be unconstitutional, & which was never binding upon the America tax payer as "law" for "there is no law," it's one you "volunteer to pay!" (A must see: Aaron Russo's America: Freedom to Fascism 1-11 parts. Income tax, is it constitutional? "Where is the law?" A progressive income tax was part of the communist plan. Aaron, a famous film maker, exposes & explores this issue & threats to our freedoms. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ueEfRXZCVA See also: Zeitgeist The Movie, Federal Reserve and those in banking, how they fuel both side of world wars and other wars. How our tax dollars go to bring about our own lose to freedoms! In 5 parts. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_dmPchuXIXQ&feature=related ).
Billions of dollars in properties, cash, & other things, are seized without trial each year from innocent Americans! The Forfeiture Endangers American Rights, FEAR, warns that seizures range from pocket cash, cars, to multi-million dollar apartment buildings! Once they've rob you of it, good luck on getting it back! For the burden of proof is on you to prove yourself & your properties' innocene! Any suspected "illegal" activities that even your relatives, friends, or employees on, or even near your property "are sufficient grounds to seize it." (Jarrent: http://archive.newsmax.com/archives/articles/2001/6/27/191414.shtml )
Case in point: 69 year old Gussie Mae Gantt, in Montgomery, Ala., calls police, complains that drug dealers had infested her neighborhood. Police video a deal going down, where informants buy drugs in her yard, even though she had posted no-trespassing signs! So what did the police do? They rob her of her home! "Police waited until there was a drug deal in her yard and then seized her home." (Jarrent's source: An analysis of U.S. asset forfeiture laws, with extensive legal citations, can be found in the book "Your House Is Under Arrest," by Brenda Grantland, one of America's leading asset defense attorneys. Copies are available from ISIL, 707/726-8796, www.isil.org. Another excellent source is "Forfeiting Our Property Rights," by U.S. Rep. Henry Hyde, R-Ill. ).
This is easy money for the government, courts, lawyers & police, which is why they do it! The temptation to abuse it is obvious! There's too much money to be made! So say 'good bye' to your homes, cars, bank accounts & other assets, which can be seized under civil asset forfeiture laws! Good luck getting it all back too, as the police and courts divide up the proceeds 80% for police & 20% for courts!
It's become a big rackit, big business across America, as millions of dollars worth of cars, taken from motorists stopped for minor traffic violations, their cars then auctioned off! Other companies are scamming their own customers too! As in the case with Amtrak & Greyhound, which are alleged to have worked out a deal with the DEA by giving them access to their booking system where they note those who have paid cash to travel with! Yes, 10% goes to them, while the DEA cashes in on the cash their customers might have on them, all in the name of "the drug war!" The DEA is alleged to also have the same types of deals set up with major airports, hotels & motel owners in L.A. & Vegas, as well as other large cities.
THIS IS AN OUT RAGE!
This is an outrage! There should be another ammendment to the constitution to protect us against these types of corrupt & "official" so-called "legal" police, lawyer, courts' & government's abuses! If there's isn't an ammendment, or additional right already! If there is, then it's clearly being violated! The Right of the People not to be robbed of their properties & wealth in the name of the so-called manufactored "wars," "world crisis," or co-called "drug war!" These seizure laws are obviously being abused by too many police departments, "justice" departments & government agencies throughout the country!
AMENDMENT IV [1791]: "The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized." (Ralph A Rossum & G. Alan Tarr, American Constitutional Law, 5th edition, (Bostom & New York: Bedford/ St. Martin's, 1999), volume I: The Structure Of Government, p. 502). The Patriot Act in the name of the "war on terror," made an end run around this Amendment!
Inconsistencies in Present Day Legal Systems!
It's also ironic that cigs & smoking, that kills a lot of people per day, has legal, political & government approval, after the companies that make this harmful product, have bought political protection! Why don't the cops go after these barons of poisons? Perhaps because they have bought too much political & legal powers! (See: The Insider, Russell Crowe; http://www.dailymotion.com/cluster/shortfilms/video/x2nt7o_the-insider_ads?from=rss Paul Slovic, Editor, Smoking, Risk, Perception, & Policy, (Thousand Oaks, London, New Delhi: Sage Publications, 2001).
Mean while, another weed, pot, is considered "illegal," so the on going "legal theft of people's homes and cars ("civil asset forfeiture") and the imprisonment of hundreds of thousands of innocent people, who spend years or decades rotting in jail, for the alleged "crime" of smoking cannabis occasionally" continues, because there is so much more money to be made by the police, courts & government! ( http://www.serendipity.li/wod.html )
Other inconsistancies in our present legal systems is how the slaughter of the un-born still goes on at tax payers' expense. But then, the "drug war," can then, and do, turn around and prosecute pregnant crack mothers, who "distribute drugs to a minor" (their un-born child in their womb, when they use drugs)!
But then, government backed abortion clinics can still murder thousands of unborn kids, "cause their not human," yet! The New World Order promoters like the Rockefellers, "have even financed the establishment of an abortion mill. In the summer of 1971, Planned Parenthood-New York City opened its first large scale abortion center -a prototype for the development of additional centers throughout the city, state, and nation. The center was originally designed to perform more than 10,000 abortions a year for an average fee of $80, with funds provided in many cases by Medicaid." "Justified" murders of millions, in the name of "populations control," and "planning." (Drug Wars, http://www.npr.org/news/specials/drugwars/ see also a book by that title. Randy Alcorn, Why Pro-Life?, Caring for the Unborn and Their Mothers, (Sisters, Oregon: Multnomah Publishers, Inc., 2004; Gary Allen, The Rockefeller File, chaper 10: The People Planners, http://www.whale.to/b/allen_b.html
More Inconsistencies!
Medical Un. of S. Carolinia, says that if a pregnant woman's urine test indicates the use of cocaine, she can be "arrested for distributing drugs to a minor"! In Illinois if a pregnant woman takes illegal drugs, she can be prosecuted for "delivering a controlled substance to a minor." How can this be, if, as the pro-choice propaganda claims, the un-born is "not a person" with "rights!" This type of ruling, however, clearly suggests that the un-born is human, with rights to protect! The irony is, however, that the same women, jailed for endangering her child, though still yet un-born, can turn around and demand & is even free to abort that very same child at tax payers expense! But then, at the same time, in America, it's illegal to harm your preborn child, but it's perfectly legal to kill them! WOW! How did we come to this! (Alcorn, Why Pro-Life?, pp, 39-41).
Moreover, in Oregon, every alcohol serving establishment is required to post signs that warn pregnant women about the harmful effects that alcohol can have on their unborn. (Alcorn, pp. 39-41). Can pregnant women also be charged with some kind of illegal distribution charge, when smoking tobaco too! Or is that too, inconsistantly protected in the name of the "un-born isn't human yet" propaganda!
So, while many innocent Americans are being prosecuted for these types of things, & are having their "private property abolished," as the Communist Manifesto state is one of their goals! Despite how the Constitution & its' framers were concerned about this issue, as Madison wrote in the Federalist: "To secure the public good and private rights." (Richard Vetterli, The Constitution By A Thread, (Salt Lake City, Utah: Paramount Publishers, 1967), pp. 58-60; Jerome Horowitz, The Elders of Israel And The Constitution, (Salt Lake City, Utah: Parliament Publishers, 1970), pp. 119-120).
The police, courts, & government agencies that continue to rob common persons' of their cash, properties & assests; then turn around to then seem to turn a blind eye, or don't go after, & investigate in detail all the alleged drug smuggling & dealings of high up government officials, like the Clintons & Bush barons! Instead, the Clintons & Bush "drug barons," continue to get away with alleged "murders," to cover up their narco-terrorism, drug transporting & distributions through the Mena Air port, their opium deals out of Berma, & south & central American drug plantations, during "Air America" on going operations! The DEA & police don't seem to be willing, or able, or have the guts to go after the real alleged drug barons in different government positions, especially the very high up ones! Why?
Instead they go after different ones assigned to investigate, report, or who have knowledge of activities and could pose a threat to their climbs to higher government positions, like in the cases with the law enforcement agents assigned to investigate Mena, White Water, & other alleged illegal activities of the Clintons. Plus, they go after such investigators as highly decorated Veitnam vets like, Bog Grits, who attempted to expose Bush's disinterest in "evidence" of drug running out of Berma. As "The Clinton Chronicles"! & Bog Grits show & allege, the top cops at the top, who are suppose to be in charge of dealing with the so called "drug war!" Are part of the problem! They're "part of it, in a major way!"
These documentaries show how those who attempt to present evidence, or testify as to high up government officials' alleged connections to drug running, murderous cover ups, money launderings; & the destroying of evidence through shreading documents! Like in the White Water case, etc., are demonized or villified in the news & media. Or, they also come up missing, beaten, murdered, their homes are invaded so as to find files that expose the crimes of high government officials. They suffer through many false legal charges made against them, and so on! Some get to go to jail, or lose their jobs, or have to flea for their lifes, just because they attempted to present evidence, bring about legal actions, or investigate further into these allege crimes of the Clintons & Bush "drug barons'" activities!
These alleged crimes, by high government officials, still seems to go unanswered, even to this day! The justice department & congress, despite how much evidence survives, and is presented, (despite efforts to destory, turn a blind eye towards, or suppress such evidences). Still, despite this, those in power remain in power to further smash Americans' rights in the name of "drug wars," "wars of terror," and "Identity theft" issues, where they'll tell us that we need to all be computer chipped in order to solve this manufactured "crisis"!
Mean while the common person, without endless tax payers funding at their finger tips to defend themselves, are smashed down, robbed, and plundered of anyway to defend themselves, cause their assest, cash, & properties are taken from them, in the name of the so-called "Drug War!" Or that they could be acused of being "a terrorists," cause they may have excercized their constitutional rights to free speach, the right to bear arms, & right to be secure in their person or property!
Thus, it's obvious, it's clear, it's frightening! That the One Worlders, The world money barons, and the NEW WORLD ORDERISTS, have, as they said they would, used the so-called crisis of "drugs in our streets," & guns, etc., to take away our freedoms, "abolish private property," "take away guns," and drain America of it's wealth! (Margaret Haerns, Editor, Gun Violence, Opposing Viewpoints, (Detroit, New York, etc,: Greenhaven Press, Thomson - Gale, 2006; Michael A. Sommers, Individual Rights & Civic Responsibility, The Right To Bear Arms, (New York: The Rosen Publishing Group, Inc., 2001).
The shocking fact is too, that many in the different police departments, courts, & other government agencies, & legal systems, have also taken advantage of these "wars" too, in order to make a "killing" at tax payers' and the innocents' expense! Now this is not a charge against those in these government agencies that try hard to be honest, & even fight against corruption and unconstitutional "laws" and methods. But it is a wake up call to the American public to step forwards and start healing and up-holding the constitution before the final thread to it now hanging by a thread, is cut!
What if the goverment were to go after the many different banks that they find out were laundering drug money? Would your accounts also be seized, even though your money is not drug related?! But instead, is your life's savings from many hours of your life which you've sold to different employers throughout the years, for so much per hour that your employers allows you to have?! And, of which you've payed unfair and unconstitutional "income taxes" on, when wages aren't your own corporate profits, and thus shouldn't be taxed! (Aaron Russo's America: Freedom to Fascism, 1-11 parts. Income tax, is it constitutional? "Where is the law?" A progressive income tax was part of the communist plan. Aaron, a famous film maker, exposes & explores this issue & threat to our freedoms. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ueEfRXZCVA ).
Wake up America! Spread the word! These different "wars" are only being used by the elite to have an excuse to take away more of our rights, wealth & enslave you under their ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT -- New World Order -- Globalism!
WHO'S HIDING BEHIND "THE BUSHES"? THE CLINTONS!?
ALLEGED ILLEGAL DRUG DEALINGS OF BUSH & THE CLINTONS
