    Thumbs down Man Arrested for Anti-Cop Tattoo

    I'm no fan of gang members, but I'm even less of a fan of police arresting people for "thought crimes." A while back there was a Las Vegas cop who was discovered to have tattoos commemorating his four "kills" of people he shot while on duty, and the police had no problem with that.

    Man’s Tattoo Threatens Cop, Lands Him In Jail
    November 8, 2012 10:30 PM


    MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — A Minnesota man is in jail because of a Facebook picture of what police call a threatening tattoo.

    Investigators say the tattoo on Antonio Jenkins’ arm is a death threat against a Minneapolis police officer.

    “This is the first time I’ve heard of a case like this,” said department spokesman Sgt. Bill Palmer.

    Investigators say 20-year-old Jenkins posted a picture of his tattoo on Facebook. It showed a pig with a gun in its mouth, wearing a uniform with a badge number and an officer’s name. The officer it referenced took it as a direct threat against his life.

    You want to put that on your body as a tattoo, you want to post that on a social media site, you’re going to get charged with a felony,” Palmer said.

    Arrested and charged with making terroristic threats, police say Jenkins is a known member of the Bloods street gang. Court papers show he admitted to being angry with the officer over an incident that happened last year, but police records show the officer wasn’t involved in that incident. In the same court papers, Jenkins says he knew the tattoo might prompt violence from others.

    Terrorism truly is the new communism.
    There are no crimes against people.
    There are only crimes against the state.
    And the state will never, ever choose to hold accountable its agents, because a thing can not commit a crime against itself.

    That tattoo needs to go viral on Facebook, it would seem.
