A Seattle police officer has been caught on tape telling a recently arrested young African American man that he was going to make up evidence against him.

Josh Lawson and Christopher Franklin were arrested at gunpoint in November of 2010 after police spotted them several blocks away from where an assault had been reported. Neither man was charged with any crime after their arrest, and they have sued the city for excessive force and wrongful arrest.

Both men allegedly suffered facial bruises after being kicked and thrown on the pavement as the police officers arrested them. While Lawson and Franklin were being taken to the police department, one of the officers also said he was going to make up evidence against them, an audio recording obtained KOMO 4 News revealed.

“Well, you’re going to jail for robbery that’s all,” the officer said.

“For robbery?” Franklin asked.

“Yeah, I’m gonna make stuff up,” the officer responded.

Seattle Police Sergeant Sean Whitcomb told KOMO 4 News that the comment was inappropriate, but that the department’s had investigated the complaint and exonerated the officer.

Man Ticketed for Calling 911 Three Times…to Report a Break-In at His Mother’s

This is utterly ridiulous! The police department and the city government of Detroit should be ashamed of themselves! 

Taken from yahoo news:

 

A Detroit man who called 911 three times to report a break-in at his mother’s apartment has been ticketed for “misuse” of the emergency line, even though the reason he kept calling was because it took police hours to show up.

Sean Street told Detroit Fox affiliate WJBK-TV his mother called him when she returned home and saw her front door had been kicked in. He called 911, then jumped in his car to go over to her apartment.

It took him an hour to get there, and when he arrived police hadn’t shown up. He made another 911 call and another hour later they still hadn’t come by, so he called a third time.

“[There] was no profanity whatsoever. I was very polite with them. The officer actually seemed very polite, also, and he told me let us handle it. Don’t take matters into your own hands,” Street told the station.

When police finally showed up, they talked to a witness who said he had seen two males wearing black hoods break into the home.

“[The officer said] there was nothing they could do about it,” Street said. “I asked him if they would’ve came on time, the guys would’ve still been there? He said, if you want us to have a faster response time, contact the mayor to see if we can arrive on time faster and have more police officers.”

Street said police never followed up with his mother, but that a week later he opened up his mail to find he’d been sent a misdemeanor ticket for “malicious use of communications device misuse of 911.” It said Street repeatedly called 911, escalating a police run because he was unsatisfied with the response time, according to WJBK.

He must appear in court and if convicted, faces a $500 fine and up to 90 days in jail. He plans to contest the ticket.

“They found the time to write me a ticket,” he said. “They never followed up with my mom about the investigation, the detective at all, but the detective actually had time to write me a ticket for that.”

The Spectre of “Gay Rights”

Before the recent hijacking of the masses’ collective psyche by the theatre of the Anthony case, New York became the sixth state to legalize same sex marriage joining Iowa,Massachusetts, Vermont,New Hampshire,and Connecticut .

It has been heralded as a major victory for “gay rights”( I will explain why I used the quotations). I’m personally indifferent on the issues for a variety of reasons.

I think the term “gay rights” is a misnomer. Homosexuals are free to do anything they want with the exception of marriage in 44 states and in my estimation, it’s not the want to be married, it’s certain benefits that the institution grants.

The recent CNN interview with former New York Giants player David Tyree reminded me of something I have been seeing that compares gay “rights” to that of the struggle of the Civil Rights movement. I have even seen shirts that state that being gay is the new black. While I do not agree with Mr. Tyree’s stance on the issue (he is stauchly opposed to homosexual marriage and stated it would lead to “anarchy”), I respected the manner in which he was able to articulate himself. What I had a problem with was the interviewer, Kyra Phillips insinuating that because Tyree was black then he should be in favor of gay marriage. I know homosexuals have been mistreated in various instances, but to try to correlate the two is an insult not only to black people now but especially to the elders and to those who transitioned during the movement. Homosexuals can’t say they had police dogs and firehouses turned on them or had separate entrances in buildings. I have never seen gay and straight water fountains. Can a homosexual say they have been pulled over for DWG (Driving While Gay) or had the joy of being followed around a store? Granted, there have been many gay people maimed and even killed just because of their sexual orientation, but for every Matthew Shepherd, there are hundreds of Emmett Tills.
