The DOJ is Prosecuting a Drug Kingpin, Blah, Blah, Blah

From [HERE] The United States Department of Justice (DOJ) was patting itself on the back with gusto last week in publicizing it is prosecuting alleged drug kingpin Zhi Dong Zhang upon his extradition from Mexico. The prosecution is a really big deal in the US government’s effort to win the war on drugs according to the assertions of several government employees in the DOJ press release.

In reality, the hoopla is just more “blah, blah, blah” in support of a destructive drug war that continues to cause much harm while failing to achieve its stated objectives including the reduction of drug use and threats to safety. . . .

For someone with limited familiarity with the US drug war, these statements may be convincing that a major victory in the “war” is being accomplished that will lead to a diminishing of drug use and problems associated with it. However, the truth is very different. People who have followed the US war on drugs know that the comments of the various government employees in the press release are just a bunch of “blah, blah, blah” that can be ignored. Been there, done that. The US government has indicted and convicted many kingpins over the decades without it reducing drug use, helping drug users, or making America safer or more free. Rather, these and other enforcement efforts encompassed in the drug war have contributed to increased dangers for drug users and have, as libertarian communicator Ron Paul has been arguing for decades, made America more dangerous and less free while failing to reduce the supply of drugs.

In his February of 2014 Future of Freedom Foundation editorial “Yawn. Another Big Drug Bust,” Jacob G. Hornberger laid out the logic and history of why it is wrong to think that the arrest, indictment, incarceration, or killing of a drug kingpin, be it Zhang last week or another such as Joaquin Guzman Loera at the time Hornberger wrote his editorial, will do anything to help the American people. “[B]usting a big drug lord or some drug gang reaps nothing but a lot of publicity for the drug warriors,” concluded Hornberger. It instead is part of a larger effort — the war on drugs — that causes many harms that people wrongly blame on drugs.[MORE]

New Survey Finds that 1 in 10 Adults in the US were Seriously Injured by a COVID Injection

From [HERE] One in every 10 U.S adults who received the COVID-19 vaccine experienced “major” side effects, and over a third (36%) suffered “minor” side effects, according to a national survey conducted this month.

Based on a U.S. adult population of 258 million in 2020, the results mean that about 17 million adults who got the COVID-19 vaccine experienced major health effects, and roughly 63 million had minor side effects, said Rasmussen Reports, which conducted the survey.

The survey, which included 1,292 adults and had a margin sampling error of +/- 3 percentage points with a 95% confidence level, also revealed that 46% of both vaccinated and unvaccinated adults think it’s likely that COVID-19 vaccines have caused a significant number of unexplained deaths.

The numbers come as no surprise to Christopher Dreisbach, legal affairs director of React19, whose mission is to support the COVID-19 vaccine-injured. He told The Defender:

“Any surprise regarding the frequency and severity of these adverse reactions is simply the result of years of government and platform-level censorship that kept the injured’s experiences out of public view.”

Dreisbach was diagnosed with a debilitating and painful neurological disorder after getting Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine.

Kristi Dobbs, who was also seriously injured when she took her first and only Pfizer COVID-19 shot on Jan. 18, 2021, said the U.S. government has yet to ensure that this kind of massive vaccine injury won’t happen again in the future.

With the exceptions of U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), who have been outspoken on COVID-19 vaccine injuries, most government officials are “hoping we will just be silenced and forgotten about,” Dobbs said.

She said she and others have been “shouting from the rooftops” since February 2021, when a group of them warned the National Institutes of Health that the shots were causing massive harm.

Since then, Dobbs has personally contacted the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Stanford University and the Mayo Clinic.

“My cries have fallen on deaf ears for years,” she said. “The vaccine-injured are still hurting, dying and being discarded as trash.” [MORE]

Data Suggest COVID Injections May Have Contributed to Germany’s 2023 Surge in Excess Mortality

From [HERE] A new analysis in Royal Society Open Science found that Germany’s excess mortality surged in 2023 even as COVID-19 infections and deaths declined. The authors report that vaccination rates were the only factor that consistently tracked with the increase, though they stressed that the study doesn’t establish causation.

Professor Christof Kuhbandner, at the University of Regensburg in Germany, and Professor Matthias Reitzner, at Osnabrück University in Germany, published “Regional patterns of excess mortality in Germany during the COVID-19 pandemic: a state-level analysis” in Royal Society Open Science in September.

Using actuarial life-table methods and population-adjusted expected-death modeling, the authors examined excess mortality across Germany’s 16 federal states from April 2020 to March 2023 to determine which factors — COVID-19 infections, deaths, vaccination rates, demographics or policy — best explain mortality patterns.

Their most controversial finding: in the third pandemic year, excess mortality rose sharply while COVID-19 deaths declined, creating a statistical decoupling that correlated positively with vaccination rates, even after adjusting for prior-year mortality.

While no causation is established, the correlations are nonetheless troubling.

Study design: State-level excess mortality across three ‘pandemic years’

This observational modeling study analyzed mortality data for three periods:

• P1: April 2020-March 2021

• P2: April 2021-March 2022

• P3: April 2022-March 2023

Researchers computed expected deaths using 2017-2019 life tables, applied federal-state mortality correction factors and correlated excess mortality with: COVID-19 deaths, PCR-confirmed cases, vaccination rates (double and triple), age structure, poverty, GDP, trust in institutions and policy stringency.

The authors also used change-score models and ANCOVA to control for time-invariant confounders and prior-year excess mortality.

Findings: Early COVID death correlation, later decoupling and a vaccine paradox

1. First two years: Excess mortality correlated strongly with COVID-19 deaths (r = 0.96 and r = 0.89). Yet COVID-19 deaths greatly exceeded excess deaths (e.g., 78,185 COVID-19 deaths vs. 22,405 excess deaths in P1). The study suggests misclassification or pandemic-measure effects as possible explanations.

2. Third year: A “new driver” emerged. COVID-19 deaths dropped, infections fell, but excess mortality jumped from ~26,973 to ~78,493. Correlations with COVID-19 outcomes dissolved (r = 0.32, ns).

3. Vaccination correlation:

   1. In P3, higher vaccination rates correlated with higher excess mortality (r = 0.65, p = 0.006).

   2. Change-score analysis for P2→P3 yielded r = 0.93, p < 0.001, even after adjusting for prior mortality.

   3. Higher vaccination states also saw smaller declines in COVID-19 deaths and case fatality rates. [MORE]

UK Government Wins 2-Year Battle to Conceal Data Linking COVID Shots to Excess Deaths

From [HERE] The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) is not required to publicize data that may link COVID-19 vaccines to an increase in excess deaths in the United Kingdom during the pandemic, following a ruling last week by the U.K. Information Commissioner’s Office.

The ruling, which concludes a two-year battle for the release of the data, has led to accusations of a “cover-up,” according to The Telegraph, which first reported the story.

In 2023, UsForThem, a nonprofit advocacy group, requested the data under the country’s freedom of information laws. However, UKHSA challenged the request, citing concerns that releasing the data could fuel “misinformation” and cause “distress” to the vaccine-injured.

In a statement provided to The Defender, Luke Weeks, senior communications manager at UKHSA’s press office, said:

“Protecting patient confidentiality is of critical importance. Releasing this data presented a real possibility that it could be used to identify individuals, which could result in significant distress.

“UKHSA provided a carefully anonymised version of the dataset that removed the risk of identification. We welcome the decision of the tribunal to dismiss the appeal.”

UKHSA previously told the Information Commissioner’s Office that releasing the data may lead to “distress or anger” on the part of the relatives of the deceased and that the figures might be used to fuel “misinformation” about the COVID-19 vaccines, potentially fueling vaccine hesitancy.

According to TrialSite News, UKHSA’s “single justification — fear of public reaction — is now driving intense criticism.”

Dr. Angus Dalgleish, a medical oncologist at St. George’s, University of London, called the decision to withhold the data “a ridiculous cover-up.”

“The excuse of [vaccine] confidence is patently absurd,” Dalgleish said.

Dr. Aseem Malhotra, a British cardiologist who is chief medical adviser to Make Europe Healthy Again (MEHA) and medical adviser to MAHA Action, said the decision to withhold the data is “appalling,” as the data “would very likely make the link between the COVID jabs and excess deaths.”

Malhotra said this is “not the first time” that U.K. government health agencies “have been involved in a cover-up.” He said the U.K.’s Department of Health and the country’s National Health Service “covered up the ambulance delays” that resulted in the 2021 death of his father, Dr. Kailash Chand, a general practitioner and former deputy chair of the British Medical Association.

‘Not having access to clear and concise data is what fuels misinformation’

TrialSite News noted that while it is impossible to claim with certainty that the data withheld by the UKHSA show a definitive link between COVID-19 vaccinations and an increase in excess deaths, “refusal to release the data suggests an unwillingness to examine the question openly.” [MORE]

Dr Russell Blaylock: Ignored Dangers of the COVID-19 injections

From [HERE] The ramifications of the unprecedented push to vaccinate the entire world with these dangerous and ineffective COVID-19 injections are in two categories – the seen and the unseen. The seen entails such things as a rising incidence of myocarditis, multifocal encephalitis, sudden adult death, a rising incidence of death in vaccinated toddlers and babies, death of babies breastfed by vaccinated mothers, the spread of the virus by the vaccinated among the population (shedding), and other obvious health catastrophes.

At the center of both the obvious and hidden ramifications of these injections is what will be the delayed effects of these injections. To understand this, first, we have to look at the biodistribution study done by the Pfizer pharmaceutical company which was purposefully hidden, not just from the public, but all scientists and physicians in the world. A freedom of information lawsuit was required to force Pfizer to release this study. When the study was examined, it immediately became obvious why they wished it to be hidden. The study, done on animals, demonstrated that once injected into the animals’ muscles, the nanolipid carrier containing the specifically engineered messenger RNA (mRNA) did not stay at the site of the injection, which the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Pfizer assured the public it did, rather within 48 h this spike protein producing creation was distributed throughout the body. Further, these nanolipid carriers were found in the highest concentration in the female ovaries and the bone marrow of both sexes. High concentrations were also found in the endothelial cells lining all blood vessels, the liver, spleen, the heart, and kidneys, with lesser concentrations in the brain. In addition, the nanolipid carrier itself was found to be toxic and inflammatory.

What I wish to address in this essay are some of the possible less obvious ramifications of these injections. First on the list, will be the contamination of the blood supply using blood donated by the vaccinated. As an introduction to the subject let us first review the skeptical responses from the orthodox supporters of “safe and effective” vaccines. [MORE]

FDA Chief: Fauci ‘100% Involved” In “Massive” COVID-19 Origins Cover-Up

Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary accused former top health official Dr. Anthony Fauci of orchestrating a “massive cover-up” of the origins of Covid-19. In an interview with “Pod Force One” podcast, Makary said that Fauci, who served as director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease during the pandemic, worked to suppress the Wuhan lab-leak theory.

“One thing that’s extremely obvious that very few people realize, and certainly hardly anyone in the medical establishment where I come from realized, is that [Fauci] was involved in a massive cover-up of the origins of COVID, a massive cover-up,” Makary, who previously served as a professor at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, told host Miranda Devine.

“Whether or not he was involved in the experiments or funding the experiments that led to the origins of COVID, he was clearly 100% involved in the cover-up,” the FDA head added.

In 2023, the House Oversight Committee released evidence showing Fauci commissioned and approved a February 2020 scientific paper, “The Proximal Origin of SARS-CoV-2,” which appeared aimed at refuting the lab-leak hypothesis. [MORE]

Court Fails to Keep a Leash on Police K9 Drug-Sniff Searches into People’s Cars, Raising Questions, such as; Do “4th Amendment Rights” Only Exist in Courtrooms and Law Books?

From [HERE] In yet another ruling that contributes to the steady normalization of police overreach, the U.S. Supreme Court has refused to rein in police K-9 drug-sniff searches during traffic stops.

By declining to hear an appeal in Mumford v. Iowa, the Court let stand an Iowa Supreme Court ruling that allows police to rely on a drug dog’s intrusion into a car’s interior during a traffic stop—even when officers lack probable cause to believe the car contains contraband. In a 5-2 decision in Mumford v. Iowa, the Iowa Supreme Court upheld as constitutional a search in which a police K-9 placed its paws on a car door and inserted its snout through an open window before alerting to drugs.

The Rutherford Institute, joined by Restore the Fourth, had urged the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn the ruling, arguing that warrantless, nonconsensual intrusions into protected spaces violate the Fourth Amendment, which extends its protection to a person’s vehicle. The amicus brief further warned that allowing a police dog to breach the interior of a car provides no limiting principle: if a dog’s snout may trespass inside a vehicle without probable cause, then so might thermal-imaging devices, x-ray scanners, fiberscopes, or other police technologies.

“What this ruling makes clear is that no American is safe from government intrusion, not even during a routine traffic stop. This is how constitutional rights are lost—not in dramatic sweeps, but in small, incremental intrusions that courts refuse to check,” said constitutional attorney John W. Whitehead, president of The Rutherford Institute and author of Battlefield America: The War on the American People. “If a police dog’s snout can be used to justify a warrantless search of a car, then there is nothing to stop the government from using ever more intrusive technologies, surveillance tools, and police instrumentalities to invade our privacy with little to no judicial oversight.”

The case arose after an Iowa police officer initiated a traffic stop of Ashlee Mumford’s vehicle, claiming the last two numbers on her license plate were obscured by dirt and grime. The officer summoned a K-9 unit, and Mumford and her passenger were ordered out of the vehicle “for their own safety” while the handler walked the dog around the car to conduct a “free air sniff.” Because Mumford’s passenger had left his window open, the dog pushed its snout through the open window into the cabin before alerting to drugs. A subsequent search of the vehicle uncovered drugs in the glove compartment which apparently belonged to the passenger. Officers then searched Mumford’s purse—which she had taken with her upon exiting the vehicle—and found marijuana and a pipe. [MORE]

Is Rep Cherfilus-McCormick in Congress to Address Problems Plaguing Black Communities or to Steal from FEMA while Repping the Interests of Elite White Liberals for Trinkets and Coin?

From [HERE] Federal officials have indicted Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (D-Florida) on allegations that she used her family’s health care company to steal from a covid-19 vaccination contract funded by the Federal Emergency Management Agency and then used the money to bolster her 2021 congressional campaign, the Justice Department announced Wednesday.

Cherfilus-McCormick was charged alongside multiple co-defendants, including her brother and her tax preparer.

Her district covers most of the Black-majority areas in and around Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach. A member of the Democratic Party, she won a special election in 2022 to fill the seat left vacant after the death of Alcee Hastings. Cherfilus-McCormick voted with President Joe Biden's stated position 100% of the time in the 117th Congress, according to a FiveThirtyEight analysis. Cherfilus-McCormick voted to provide Israel with support following the so-called 2023 “Hamas attack” on Israel.

Law enforcement officials say that in July 2021 the health care company received an overpayment of $5 million, which appeared to be the result of a clerical error. Instead of returning that money, Cherfilus-McCormick funneled some of it to friends and family, who then made donations to her campaign, according to the Justice Department. Such straw donations, as they are known, would be illegal under campaign finance laws.

She also used some of the money to self-fund her campaign, the Justice Department alleges.

“Using disaster relief funds for self-enrichment is a particularly selfish, cynical crime,” Attorney General Pam Bondi said in a statement. “No one is above the law, least of all powerful people who rob taxpayers for personal gain. We will follow the facts in this case and deliver justice.”

The indictment against Cherfilus-McCormick and her co-defendants was not posted on public court dockets Wednesday evening. [MORE]

Newly Released Documents Reveal Extensive Surveillance Abuses by the NYPD. Police Targeting Blacks and People Deemed Suspicious Based on 'Cultural Clothing' and Language

From [HERE] Amnesty International and the Surveillance Technology Oversight Project (STOP) released on Thursday more than 2,700 New York Police Department (NYPD) documents obtained after a five-year lawsuit. The groups say that the documents reveal extensive and discriminatory surveillance practices.

The records, ordered to be disclosed by a New York state court in 2022, show repeated use of facial recognition technology (FRT) against individuals engaged in everyday activity as well as political expression. According to the organizations, the disclosures detail how the NYPD relied on FRT to identify people flagged by police reports that labeled them “suspicious” for speaking a foreign language or wearing culturally distinctive clothing. Advocates say the documents demonstrate that racial and cultural profiling frequently served as the basis for surveillance.

The records also reveal that the NYPD spent more than $5 million on facial recognition technology between 2019 and 2020, and has continued to invest at least $100,000 annually. The department stopped tracking FRT accuracy in 2015 after finding error rates too high, yet continued to deploy the technology. In one instance, officers worked with the US Marshals Service to contract a facial recognition firm to surveil a private social media account, apparently in violation of departmental policy.

The documents further show the NYPD using facial recognition to monitor political expression. Officers reviewed social media posts using slang to reference Times Square on New Year’s Eve (“NYE in Times Square is da BOMB”) and conducted queries related to graffiti of a common protest slogan against the police force (abbreviated as “FTP”). In another instance, they used FRT to identify artists based solely on content in a music video. The groups also cite a December 31, 2019 report in which two men in Times Square were subjected to FRT after being reported for speaking a Middle Eastern language and not dancing.

Amnesty International and STOP are calling on New York City lawmakers to enact legislation banning government use of facial recognition, noting that two measures already have majority sponsorship in the City Council. However, the groups urge the NYPD and the mayor to halt use of the technology immediately.

Amnesty International warned in 2022 of a pattern of NYPD surveillance disproportionately affecting Black and brown communities, and now charges that the use of FRT creates a chilling effect on free expression and peaceful assembly.

A UN panel stated this June that the use of artificial intelligence, such as FRT, must comply with international human rights standards. In the report, the UN Working Group on Business and Human Rights said that AI that cannot comply with human rights standards should be prohibited, and urged states to “establish human rights policies for AI deployment.”

The Myth of Black Voting Power: No Matter How Many Liberals the Black Votary Elects in NYC, Blacks Remain Powerless to Stop the NYPD from Destroying their Freedoms and Degrading Them On a Daily Basis

Mamdani Reappoints NYPD Commissioner Who Refused to Punish Killer Cops

Forget DEI, White Presumacy is the Ultimate Form of Affirmative Action: Billionaire's Daughter w/No Cop Experience Named Head of NYPD. Goal is to Dominate Blacks in a City Controlled by Elite Liberals

Billionaire's Daughter w/No Cop Experience who Runs the NYPD has Turned NYC Into a Surveillance Colony and Has Police Prepared to Wage War Against Citizens

Comptroller Finds NYPD Force Complaints are Way up Under Black Strawboss Eric Adams. At Highest Level Since 2013 in a City Run by Elite, White Liberals

[New Style Same Influence in NYC] Will Mamdani Stop Elite White Liberals from Using the NYPD to Stop, Arrest and Surveil Law Abiding Black People and from Cramming Them Into Their Reprehensible Jails?

The Black electorant (sleeping Toms) should witness that most Black people live in urban jurisdictions that are dominated by liberal Democrats who were duly elected by a participating black votary. Police are primarily killing Black people in these cities and are doing so in substantial numbers. In fact, a map created by Mapping Police Violence illustrates in cities such as; Sacramento, San Francisco, LA, Las Vegas, Phoenix, Denver, Austin, Houston, Kansas City, St. Louis, Minneapolis, Madison, Chicago, Detroit, Indianapolis, Columbus, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Columbus, Atlanta, Jacksonville, NYC, Newark, Philadelphia, Baltimore, DC, New Orleans, Miami, etc. police have murdered substantial numbers of Black people.

In the above stated cities, liberal Democrats control nearly all levels and branches of government and control all local government agencies, such as police departments.

NYC, for instance is controlled by white liberal puppeticians and complementary Black rolebots. Among its leaders NYC has a Black mayor (Eric Adams), Black Attorney Generals (Alvin Bragg, Manhattan) (Letitia James Brooklyn), Black state Assembly Leader (Carl Heastie Bronx), Black Public Advocate (Jumaane Williams Brooklyn), Black DA (Darcel Clark, Bronx), Black Borough President (Donovan Richards Queens) and numerous Black judges. Add to this Black legislators who hold 13 of 51 seats on the City Council, 22 of 150 seats in the state Assembly, and eight of 63 seats in the state Senate. There are also four Black congressional representatives —Gregory Meeks, Hakeem Jeffries, Yvette Clarke, and Jamaal Bowman and hundreds of white liberal democrats at all levels of government who dominate City politics and government agencies and claim to be the allies of Black people at election time.

Consequently, if liberal democrats really wanted to do something meaningful about police brutality - that is, controlling their own cops’ behavior in their relations with its Black residents, then the elite white liberal leadership could and would have done so at some point over the past 40-50 years.

Contrary to ‘get out the vote’ rhetoric, the quality of Black citizenship stays low in these places and it does so despite high turnout by the black votary. In liberal jurisdictions, elite liberals and their “academented” Black rolebots dogmatically claim that voting will solve all their problems. Yet Black people’s so-called “rights” are tuned on and off like light switches in said jurisdictions where police surveil, stop, detain and search law abiding Black people’s clothing, their cars and generally interfere with their freedom of movement as they attempt to go about their daily lives. For instance, in NYC law abiding Blacks are frequently stopped, searched and degraded by police in their neighborhoods or cars, Blacks and Latinos make up 90% of all persons and arrested and charged with crimes, Rikers Jail is disproportionately packed with Blacks held pre-trial in reprehensible conditions, a majority of all homeless people are black, Black unemployment stays high, 63% of black families in New York are in the bottom half of the income distribution, blacks are routinely struck from juries and so on. [MORE] Data from the court monitoring project demonstrate that the NYPD targets Blacks and latinos: as Blacks/latinos make up 90% of all NYPD arrests, mostly for victimless crimes. NYC is one of the wealthiest and least equal places in the country. [MORE]

Jazmir Tucker Lawsuit says the 15 Yr. Old Posed No Threat When a Cop Shot Him in the Back. Blacks are Disproportionately Killed by Cops in Akron, a City Controlled by White Liberals. Cop Not Charged

From [HERE] The family of a 15-year-old Black boy who was fatally shot by an Akron police officer sued the city on Monday over the Thanksgiving Day 2024 shooting that sparked controversy and protests.

Jazmir Tucker, a North High School freshman, “posed no immediate threat” before Akron police officer Davon Fields shot Tucker three times — including twice in the back, the lawsuit said.

Officers waited about eight minutes before giving Tucker medical aid and later found a gun zipped up in a jacket pocket, the lawsuit said.

Tucker family attorneys Stanley Jackson and Robert Gresham called the shooting “tragic and senseless.”

The wrongful death lawsuit was filed on behalf of Tucker’s mother, Amy Green, in federal court in Akron. It names Fields and several other police officers as defendants, along with the city.

It accuses Fields of using excessive force and the department of systemic failures in de-escalation training and bias. The lawsuit says that since 2000, more than half of all fatal Akron police shootings were of Black people in a city where 31% of the population is Black.

The lawsuit also says Fields violated several police policies, including failing to activate his body camera and give medical aid after the shooting.

Fields and another officer on Nov. 28, 2024, reported hearing gunshots while filling out a police report while parked near Miller South School for the Visual and Performing Arts on East Avenue.

He and his partner ran toward Tucker, and Fields fired eight shots from an assault rifle, the lawsuit says.

Fields did not activate his body camera as he left his cruiser, so it captured none of the moments before the shooting.

Investigators found two fired bullet casings that matched Tucker’s gun near where the boy was shot and later found the gun had been recently fired.

The Summit County medical examiner’s office found that Tucker was shot twice in the back and once in his right arm. The shots to his back were fatal, officials said.

Akron Mayor Shammas Malik has criticized the shooting and officers’ response and questioned why officers needed to shoot Tucker when the gun was in the boy’s pocket.

Tucker’s death sparked protests in Akron, including after a Summit County grand jury declined charges against Fields last month.

Earlier this year, Summit County officials turned the case over to Mahoning County prosecutors to handle after a state investigation.

John Juhasz, the criminal chief of the Mahoning County office, said the case “was fairly investigated and fairly presented to the grand jury.”

He said the panel heard from witnesses over a series of days.

Activists blasted the grand jury’s decision. It comes two years after another Summit County grand jury declined to indict eight Akron officers in the shooting death of Jayland Walker following a police chase.

“God calls us to forgiveness, but God also demands accountability,” said the Rev. Raymond Greene, the leader of the Freedom BLOC in Akron. “What happened today is not accountability, it is complicity.

“Every time a grand jury refuses to hold an officer responsible, the system tells us loud and clear that Black life in Akron is disposable.” [MORE]

The shooting is one of several high-profile police shooting cases in Akron in recent years. They include Jayland Walker, who was shot 45 times by officers in 2022. His family settled a lawsuit against Akron police for $4.8 million.

The lawsuit’s filing comes less than two weeks after an Akron officer shot and wounded Corey Phillips, who was unarmed. The officers fired 12 gunshots at Phillips within 25 seconds of encountering him on Nov. 11, officials said.

Atlanta Cop Still Not Charged After Shooting Black Man 17 Times in the Back. Puppetician DA Fani Willis Doing Nothing after the Police Slaughter of Linton Blackwell, 6 Weeks Ago

ACCORDING TO THE FUNKTIONARY:

Quisling – the name for a traitor, coined in April, 1940, meaning one who is content to accept the yoke of the conqueror for the sake of being given office and trinkets, even against the feeling and expression of the conquered people, and moreover, prepared to use the force continuum against his/her own people to impose the conquerors decrees. (See: SNAGs)

From [HERE] An autopsy showed a Black Georgia police officer shot a black man 17 times in the back during a confrontation outside a bar.

The incident occurred shortly after 11:30 p.m. Oct. 12 outside Atlanta's 5 Paces Inn. According to Atlanta police, Officer Gerald Walker was working extra duty at the bar when he responded to a call about a "disruptive person."

Walker spotted the man, later identified as 44-year-old Linton "B-Green" Blackwell, trying to re-enter the bar from a back entrance. The Georgia Bureau of Investigation said Blackwell started walking away from Walker and toward a parking lot. The cop saw Blackwell enter a car "before putting an item in the small of his back." Walker gave Blackwell "commands in reference to a gun" before opening fire, hitting him.

Paramedics pronounced Blackwell dead on scene. Cops recovered a firearm.

But Blackwell's friends and family are questioning whether the shooting was justified. Those concerns grew louder when an autopsy said Blackwell was hit 17 times in the back area, according to local NBC affiliate WXIA.

"I just couldn't believe it was 17 times in the back," Blackwell's friend and manager Timothy Coleman told the TV station. "There's not one shot in the front."

Coleman said he does not believe the shooting was justified.

"If he wasn't pointing a gun at you or doing anything, what does that have to do with shooting him in the back 17 times?" he said in an interview with WXIA. "That means he wasn't facing you. He wasn't a threat."

Walker needs to be charged with a crime, said Coleman.

"I want him locked up," Coleman emphasized. "Gerald Walker needs to be behind bars."

GBI is the lead agency investigating the case. Once it is done with the investigation, it will turn over the findings to the Fulton County District Attorney's Office for review. Prosecutors will determine whether the officer was justified in shooting Blackwell or should face criminal charges. The investigation is ongoing. [MORE]

Scott was acquitted on all charges, but jurors deadlocked on charges of involuntary manslaughter and reckless conduct against Copeland and Howell. A mistrial in 2021 had ended in a deadlock on all counts.

“We’re elated,” Karen Scott said after her son Rhett was finally cleared. “Sorry for the Martin family, but we are just elated.”

Eurie Martin was a 58-year-old mentally ill African-American man that passed while in being detained on the evening of July 7, 2017.

Martin was walking along, or perhaps on, the road going from his home in Milledgeville toward Sandersville. In the settlement of Deepstep, Georgia, he asked Cyrus Harris, a local resident, for water. Harris called 911. 

The local district attorney had recused himself from the second trial, citing a conflict, and prosecution was passed to Don Kelley, the district attorney in Columbus. Pete Skandalakis, the executive director of the Prosecuting Attorneys’ Council, said Friday that Kelley would have to decide whether to seek a third trial of Copeland and Howell on the involuntary manslaughter and reckless conduct charges.

Martin had been walking through the town of Deepstep in 95-degree heat in July 2017, taking a 30-mile (50-kilometer) journey to see his relatives for his birthday. Trial testimony showed he was under considerable stress from the heat, had a preexisting weakened heart and was dehydrated. He also had been treated for schizoaffective disorder, his family said. The trial was covered by Georgia Public Broadcasting and WMAZ.

The white homeowner who alerted authorities, Cyrus Harris Jr., testified about seeing Martin walk into his yard.

“He was a Black man, big guy,” Harris recalled. “He was a rough-looking character. He looked like he hadn’t had a bath in several days.”

Harris said he noticed Martin carried half a soda can in his hand.

“That’s when he told me he wanted some water. And I wasn’t going to go for that,” said Harris, who called 911.

While attempting to arrest and handcuff Martin, the deputies used Taser devices. Witnesses pointed out that two of the officers were obese.[2]

The three policemen were fired and charged with felony murder, involuntary manslaughter, false imprisonment, aggravated assault and reckless conduct. Medical testimony showed Martin had no drugs in his system.[2] The prosecution also produced witnesses that such a use of a Taser was not within the department's guidelines.[3]

Deputies ultimately pulled the triggers at least 15 times, sending current into Martin’s body for about a minute and a half in total. An autopsy by a Georgia Bureau of Investigation medical examiner concluded his death was a homicide. The Washington County sheriff fired all three of these men after Martin’s death

The deputies had to justify the use of Tasers. They first said that Martin physically threatened him. Without reasonable suspicion of a crime, Martin could legally resist being handcuffed.[4]

Deputies testified that Martin was walking on the road as they arrived, a crime that justified the arrest. The prosecution argued that it was a rural road with no sidewalk, and people commonly walked down the road.[5]

Eyewitnesses Lee Curtis Bentley and Susan Steele testified the lawmen did not give aid to Martin when he was restrained.[2] Which was later shown to be a lie. As video evidence shows at least one deputy as well as police officers and a first responder checking on him. 

The officer's defense initially claimed the killing was covered by Georgia's Stand Your Ground law. This was disallowed. They then maintained their actions were in fact within the Sheriff's Office guidelines and that they were not trained in those guidelines.

In his closing argument, defense attorney Shawn Merzlak said their use of force was reasonable.

“This case is not ‘poor Mr. Eurie Martin getting tased because he wanted water,’” Merzlak told jurors. “Police officers have a right to detain somebody if they suspect they have committed a crime.”

Prosecutor George Lipscomb closed by calling that rationale absurd.

“They want this to be the standard for your community: People killed for littering?” Lipscomb asked jurors. “People killed by walking in the street? Is that Washington County? Is this who you are?”

Never Expect Justice from White Jury: White OH Cop Acquitted in Murder of Pregnant Black Woman Ta’Kiya Young. Liar Cop Claimed to be Threatened by Slow Moving Car, in a County Run by Elite Liberals

UNREPRESENTATIVE JURIES NOT ONLY EXCLUDE AND MARGINALIZE COMMUNITIES OF COLOR, THEY ALSO PRODUCE WRONGFUL CONVICTIONS AND UNFAIR SENTENCES THAT DISPROPORTIONATELY BURDEN BLACK PEOPLE AND PEOPLE OF COLOR. OUR FAILURE TO REMEDY THIS LONGSTANDING PROBLEM OF RACIAL BIAS IMPERILS THE LEGITIMACY OF THE U.S. LEGAL SYSTEM.

A white policeman has been acquitted of murdering a pregnant woman he fatally shot in a supermarket car park in Franklin County Ohio. (Franklin County hasn’t voted for a republican president since 1992.)\

The jurors consisted of four men and eight women and only one person of color. The four alternates are all women, including one person of color. [MORE]

Connor Grubb opened fire at Ta'Kiya Young as he and another officer told her to get out of a vehicle on suspicion of shoplifting alcohol on 24 August 2023.

Bodycam video shows her car rolling slowly towards Mr Grubb outside the Kroger store in a suburb of Columbus. In footage, she could be heard asking: "Are you going to shoot me?" 

An overwhelmingly white jury (11 of 12) unanimously found him not guilty of two counts of murder, two charges of felonious assault, and two counts involuntary manslaughter. Ms Young, 21, was around 25 weeks pregnant. Her unborn daughter also died.

Mr Grubb declined to testify at the trial, which featured 17 witnesses, the Columbus Dispatch reported.

Sean Walton, a lawyer representing the Young family, called the verdict "an American tragedy", the Associated Press reported.

Bodycam video of the incident showed police approaching Ms Young in her car, on suspicion she had shoplifted from a Kroger grocery store.

The video shows two officers speaking with Ms Young.

In the video, her vehicle appears to very very slowly drive toward an officer who then fires as he commands her to exit the car. The officer could have easily moved out the way.

At the time, Mr Grubb's attorney argued his client had reason to believe he might be hit by a moving vehicle.

Over the course of the trial this month, jurors were asked to consider whether it was reasonable for Mr Grubb to have shot Ms Young in the course of his duties as a police officer.

The defence argued in closing arguments that Mr Grubb's actions were "objectively reasonable".

"The reaction of his use of force wasn't prompted because of the theft from the store," said attorney Mark Collins, according to Spectrum News. 

"It was the car coming at him. It's just not that complicated, ladies and gentlemen."

Prosecutors, however, argued that his actions were unjustified.

"The state is not saying that the defendant woke up that morning and wanted to discharge his firearm," said county prosecutor Erin Claypoole. 

"The state is saying when he made that decision, it was not a reasonable one, which means it was not a justified shooting." [sounds like an aggressive effort by white prosecutors who are otherwise preoccupied with putting Black people in greater confinement - no matter how hard Blacks vote for them]

In addition to her unborn child, Ms Young had two young children at the time of her death.

"It's been agony, it's been like a whirlwind of hurt and pain," Nadine Young, Ms Young's grandmother, said last year. [MORE]

‘As a Matter of Fact, Justice Means “Just Us White Folks.” No Such Thing as Justice for Black People in this Country. Justice Can Only Be Random in a Racist System’ - H Rap Brown [RIP]

From [HERE] Iman Jamil Abdullah Al-Amin has returned to paradise. Al-Amin was born on October 4, 1943, in Baton Rouge, Louisiana as Hubert Gerold Brown. In the late 1960s, he emerged as an effective, militant organizer with the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee, who became known as H. “Rap” Brown because of his incandescent loquaciousness and verbal dexterity. His voice was backed by a razor-sharp intellect and an uncompromised politics that linked the domestic struggles of African Americans with Vietnam, Cuba, and China. Local and federal law enforcement, including the FBI’s COINTELPRO, targeted Brown, leading to a decades-worth of false charges and unjust, political imprisonment. 

Al-Amin converted to Islam while serving a five-year sentence in Attica and, upon his release, became a respected faith leader in Atlanta’s West End community. Yet the police harassment did not end. In 2002, Al-Amin was sentenced to life in prison without possibility of parole, convicted on flimsy and contradictory evidence. Al-Amin passed away on November 23, 2025, at the age of 82 in the Federal Medical Center, Butner, North Carolina. A political prisoner, his death was hastened by the medical neglect of the state.

In 1969, as H. Rap Brown, Al-Amin published Die Nigger, Die! his political autobiography. [MORE]
