Hello fine citizens, I've been away for a while and I thought it was time to update the underground politics blog. I figured it was appropriate to talk about this story in this section since it relates to some of the police state type articles you may read from time to time. However as always I invite my audience to come to their own conclusion and if you feel like it throw in some of your own opinions as I love any\all feedback.
I'd like to talk about a little incident that occurred yesterday February 9th, 2013 in good ol' St Louis, Missouri. A few weeks ago a couple I know and their four children whose names I will not reveal for respect and privacy reasons of my fellow friends, were enjoying their sleep one morning before getting up for the usual daily grind of activities etc etc. Needless to say that was abruptly and intrusively disrupted when police kicked in the door, guns drawn, and yelling and screaming at the couple to stay put. Now why is this? The answer, simply put there was gentlemen living in the house behind them that has been convicted for possession of various drugs and narcotics.
What happened is they mixed up the addresses as their intended target was the man in the house next block over clearly seen from my friend's back yard. I respect that the police are trained to deal with these situations but how does it make a police force look when you bust into someone's home (being the wrong residence) with four kids that are probably going to be traumatized from such a thing.
A couple years earlier I watched a video about a guy with a wife, two kids, and dogs get their home invaded all because a harmless crime possessing a small ounce of weed. They raided his house with assault weapons, shot two of the three dogs effectively killing one of them not to mention they almost shot the father. And those kids are probably going to never forget that and probably will need counseling for the rest of their lives. (Source: Alex Jones)
See the problem here is information or lack of I should say. When you make bad mistakes at your job that could cause the company a set back of some sort it may lead to unforeseen consequences or even your job being held over your head. Or in the police's case treating harmless offenses as well as people with no known criminal backround like they are some type of threat or terrorist. In this case your the terrorist and the Gestapo is here to have a chat with you because they had inaccurate information to begin with.
Now you would think with in my friend's case this would be documented in the police's database which I call a "Fuck Up" file containing the case numbers of any or all wrongfully forced entries into a home/arrests. Fast forward to yesterday it happens to the couple yet again because as before they looking for another person. So how exactly does the same thing happen to the same quiet couple twice? Some call it Murphy's Law I'll call it John McClain's law (yes a Die Hard movie reference) How does it happen twice? How?
When the cops were starting to arrive at the house my friends put a note on the door indicating the house behind them was the issue because they suspected that once again the cops had the wrong place. Luckily this kids were not present this time, they were at the babysitters as the couple had just returned home from a day out with each other whom I was with all day at a local city even downtown. The worse part is this time the narcotics team was brought in and this time it was worse folks I mean a lot worse. They barged in breaking every door in the house including the front door and as of now the house cant even be closed up or locked properly. On the account of the wife they tore the place up pretty badly. And this isn't even their house they rent it now think about how the land lord is going to respond to this as well. It's his rental property and now he's going to have to pay for repairs.
Then the husband was arrested and dragged out of his house as be was a suspected drug dealer\user. First of all he's not by any means as he has never been in possession of anything of the sort and probably drinks a couple times a year. I guess the moral of the story here is simply put that the St Louis County Police Department needs to be held accountable for this because they simply keep returning to terrorize the family that's been mistaken for one person that's actually committing the offenses. How come that guy is still there....what can't they find him? Is he off the map? I spent the remainder of the day with the wife as me and mother picked her up and took her to her mom's place and let me tell you guys I've never seen someone traumatized the way that I did yesterday. It took several hours for her to calm down to her own natural self.
I'm deeply disturbed by this event and it had an impact on me as well. Whoever was in charge of this case needs to sued, fired, or dealt with in someway because any and every decision made is made by a decision maker, a person, someone that needs to do their homework. This could happen to you folks, I'm not playing around with this shit. It happens everyday to people in America and it hits me as well because it was within 3 minutes of my residence. It just goes to show that even quiet law abiding citizens can have these encounters with law enforcement and when its the wrong person it can have quite the effect on a person's mentality. Meanwhile the husband as of my last check in is still sitting in jail tonight wrongfully for something he didn't do.
Lastly I want to add that anyone in law enforcement reading this please note I respect your profession and what you do this is not a police officer bashing blog entry, I just want people to make sure that they have the power to keep their local police departments well informed on what's actually going on and assist them in getting the right people. Perhaps the people in this area were doing that perhaps the police were careless, perhaps they just didn't have the right information. But bottom line when you strike the wrong house twice for the same thing there's something wrong with your case managers.
This is Dan signing off.....
