Americans think that hating Trump means that you love Obama.

“We’ve been having this party for two weeks,” said the man, who declined to give his name. “This weekend is big. There will be a lot more people here later.”

Poor neighbors, that sucks when you don't have any peace and quiet for weeks on end.

It's the sort of thing that makes you want to fund the police so they can take care of this kind of shit.

The second time I was beaten by the cops was when I called in a complaint about the neighbor's having a month long party. I was angry the deputy wouldn't do anything so he decided to show me who's boss. Charge was initially "assaulting an officer" and he provided counsel with a picture of a small red mark on his arm, possibly from hitting me. Possibly he just pinched himself before taking the photo. That's their strategy, charge high and let them plead low. I didn't break any goddamned laws and I had to cop to resisting just to end the goddamned year and a half long of monthly court dates where I show up, wait hours on an uncomfortable bench, just to have my date reset for next month. They wear you down. It also ended up costing $28k altogether.

If the police actually did what they were supposed to instead of being lying criminals themselves, or turning a blind eye to their colleagues who are, I would agree with you. This is also why I am disdainful of BLM, because why the fuck do I not matter just because I'm as white as Frosty the snowman's ass.

Also the whole time I was doing this court nonsense I was on bail which means no drinking and even a traffic ticket could result in my bail being revoked. That's some unAmerican bs right there, the whole thing.

"I was angry the deputy wouldn't do anything so he decided to show me who's boss"

Sorry that happened to you but I think you might be omitting some important details about how you communicated you anger to the deputy...

I said I was angry. I may have hurt his feelings with what I said. That certainly doesn't excuse falsifying charges. That cop is a scumbag and his buddies who showed up and turned a blind eye are also scumbags.

The police treat people like the enemy, it was only a matter of time before that sentiment was reversed now that we have social media and ubiquitous recording devices. They have no one to blame but themselves, they are responsible for this current situation.
