See something, say something.

Oh, and how is it "protocol" to murder someone for refusing to show ID as the pigs allege?

Horrible as this all is, I remain fascinated by the fact that nobody stepped in to help. I wonder what I would do.

Here ya go:

What began as a fun night out to the movies ended in tragedy for one Oklahoma family after a father was beaten to death by police following a domestic dispute ,CNN reported.

The incident, which was caught on video, began when Mrs. Nair Rodriguez got into an altercation with her 19-year-old daughter outside the Moore Warren Theatre in the early hours of February 15 and slapped her. A bystander who witnessed the incident reported the event to police.

The mother-daughter disagreement had upset Mrs. Rodriguez so much that she had bolted for the family car. Her husband, Luis followed her to calm her down when he was intercepted by five police who arrived on the scene. However instead of confronting Nair, five cops took down her innocent husband Luis Rodriguez, beating, pepper spraying and pinning him on the road.

“Five guys got on top of him, beating him ruthlessly. On the head– just pow, pow, pow. Even with knees,” Luis’ daughter explained. “When they flipped him over you could see all the blood on his face, it was, he was disfigured, you couldn’t recognize him,”.

In a state of shock, Nair Rodriguez took out her phone and recorded the final moments of the police brutality where she can be heard screaming and demanding officers to stop as her husband appears lifeless.

"Luis! Luis!" Please somebody tell me that he is alive," she implored. "He is not moving,” she screams.

The police responded to Ms. Rodriguez by telling her they had called a medical unit.

Rodriguez be heard demanding to know why they pinned down her husband to which officers replied, “He refused to give his ID.”

Luis was then taken to hospital where the family was hopeful he would pull through. However, Luis was soon pronounced dead after he stopped breathing.

The family’s attorney Michael Brooks-Jiménez said it’s not clear why police took Luis down because the argument was between Nair and her daughter.

“Luis committed no crime. He was not armed. He had no gun, no knife, no weapon of any kind. But Luis is the one who lost his life that night,” he said.

Police say their actions were protocol, though three have been suspended with pay while the Oklahoma Bureau of Investigation continues to investigate.

I was going to post that this seems to be getting much more prevalent with each month or so since 9-11. Then I find a 9-11 related post, OMG!

I'm wondering if there was some kind of secret signal that some law enforcement responded to which had them feeling contempt for Americans.

It certainly appears that congress and the administrative branch is far less concerned with any rights Americans might have.

The stories about the EPA indicate they are seriously awry in their enforcement patterns. That thread about the guy that built the pond and now has a $75k fine per day is outrageous.

Consider that with the debacle of the Hanford nuclear facility and the massive contamination of the ground water in Oregan that has occured, which basically nothing is being done about.

What does it take to wake up a TV addicted American? Maybe that's what the 450 million rounds of ammo the DHS bought are for.

Just saw on the news that all cops involved in this murder are back on the beat. Coroner ruled that Rodriguez died of a heart attack as a result of the beating, but the DA said that was not the case. The DA also said that they could charge the wife with disturbing the peace, or some such bs, but they aren't. How swell of them.

As am I.

[Henry Rogue]

So, the DA is saying the Coroner got his diagnosis wrong?

[Anti Federalist]

They beat the man to death, and they skate.

And the wife of the dead man thanks them for their service.

Just another day in AmeriKa. These people will thank the guard at the end of the mass grave, "He's such fine young man, just doing his job".

I admit I used to be baffled reading accounts of history of various pograms and genocides, how nobody rose up to do anything about it.

It has never been more clear to me, now, how various atrocities in human history were brushed under the rug or taciticly approved of by cowed and docile and compliant populations.

Thank you, police...

Hopefully, nothing. Boobus is not worth it. Unless blood relative, keep walking and don't look back: boobus needs to learn.

[DGambler]

People don't think anymore (perhaps most never did) beyond the most shallowest of thoughts. Best thing I ever did for myself was stop maniacally following sports and stop watching the news.

Now, I'm trying to ween myself off my Internet addiction.

I guess my point is, boobus can't think himself out of the tyranny because he's too distracted, too tired and too lazy and quite literally probably can't do simple logic.

Or, it could be that most of us here are wired differently according to that Myers Briggs thread that was floating around for a while... If that is really the case, the. It behooves us to figure out how to communicate with our fellow personality types effectively. I've got some material laying around that describes how to do that... I'll see if I can dig it up and post it later.

How would you step in?

[Anti Federalist]

How would you step in?

Does it really need to be said?

[Seraphim]

If you really cared about righting a wrong...you do anything that could help. Small...big....anything is better than nothing.

How would you step in?

[Czolgosz]

Cops are merely fingers on The Beast.

That's what it sounded like on the news last night. They said the coroner ruled it a homicide, but the DA disagreed. I read today that the DA said the cops actions were justified and appropriate. Of course they were. Totally appropriate. What a $#@!ing joke.

[amy31416]

My god, the woman thanked them? I wouldn't have been able to do anything at the time but film it, but Jesus Christ--she thanked them?

What a $#@!ing idiot.

What a $#@!ing idiot.

She thanked the fascist for showing even a semblance of compassion that the others lacked conscience to display.

Sure, he was actively covering up the crime, and acted in a manner which contributed to the murder of her husband, but he answered, in between his baiting, confrontational line of questioning, with compassion. He lied to her and said her husband was still alive.

I wouldn't necessarily call her an idiot. The propaganda is strong. Let's say experience is the best teacher.

Yeah man, I think most people believe that large scale genocides etc are just the result of exceptionaly evil people, and it could never happen here, and how could people sit around and let it manifest around them. But reading through some of the comments on a local newsite, such as "Luis Rodriguez caused this to happen to himself", it becomes clear how large scaled tragedies have occurred.

Yeah. Not entirely fair of me considering I couldn't watch the video either.

[kcchiefs6465]

You were largely right but the majority of America, probably, would have reacted the same. She asked one officer a favor to tell her if her husband was still alive, that he looked like he wasn't breathing. A particularly helpful (purposely blocked the camera as she moved with it) fascist said he was. She said thank you. Later she realized her husband was unresponsive. She asked if he was breathing, the officer replied that he was (instead of "get back" or that she'd be arrested) She thanked him again.

Somewhere in between she realized it was bull$#@!. Her screams will hopefully haunt the murderers for eternity.
