I watched one of the clips on Youtube of the motorcycle gang terrorizing a family in New York City. My reaction was visceral. I wanted to have a machine gun and kill them all. Imagine how that man and his wife and little girl felt. But if he had a pistol and shot them, Obama and Bloomberg would have tried to get him indicted. Now it is coming out that there were several cops who were part of the pack. Which leads to these links that show that not every policeman is a hero.
Conroe Police Officer Indicted for Shooting Unarmed Teen
excerpt from Texas Observer
Russell Rios was 19, attending college, and working at a bank. He was also accused of stealing two iPhone cases from a Conroe Walmart in the early evening on July 31.
Conroe Police Sgt. Jason Blackwelder wasn’t on duty. He was in plain clothes but carrying a gun. When Rios broke away from Walmart staff and ran into a wooded area beside the store, Blackwelder chased him.
here, Conroe police say the two got into a “violent struggle” in which Rios choked Blackwelder until he was afraid he would pass out.
“This young man, he’s five-foot-seven, 140 pounds,” says Cade Bernsen, a lawyer for the Rios family. “String bean. And this cop is about six-foot, 190, 200 pounds. [Conroe police] said, ‘Oh, you know, he was choking the officer and the officer had to fire in self-defense.’ I just don’t see any scenario where that happens.”
Especially, Bernsen says, since Rios was shot in the back of the head.
And while Obama and Bloomberg want to gut the Second Amendment, here's a story that shows why law abiding Americans should have the right to carry. At least the driver of the car took one of the thugs out with his car - broke both legs and maybe paralyzed him.
How New York City’s ‘Sons of Anarchy’ Terrorized a Young Family
From Newsweek - by Michael Daly Oct 2, 2013 6:39 AM EDT
Update:
NEW YORK (AP) — An unauthorized motorcycle rally featuring hundreds of bikers parading through the streets took a bloody turn when a large group of riders surrounded a man driving with his family, then chased his SUV for miles after he plowed through a blockade of bikes and beat him.
One biker suffered broken legs and apparent spine injuries when the SUV ran over him and may be paralyzed, police said. A second biker suffered a leg injury. The driver, who was traveling with his wife and toddler, needed stitches to his face at a hospital.
The frightening assault on the man began Sunday afternoon on Manhattan's West Side Highway and was partially captured on a helmet-mounted video camera worn by one of the riders involved in the chase.
Several cops may have watched biker beatdown
An off-duty undercover NYPD cop was among the pack of bikers who chased a family up the West Side Highway — and he stood by as the dad was hauled from his car and beaten, sources told The Post.
The unidentified officer waited three days to come forward Wednesday night. He has been placed on modified duty and turned in his gun and badge on Friday, the sources said.
He rides with the New Rochelle-based Front Line Soldiers, a club that also counts several other cops among its members, a source said.

Fresh DOJ loss in ‘Fast and Furious’ docs fight from Politico
A federal judge has rejected Attorney General Eric Holder’s attempt to keep the courts from wading into the “Fast and Furious” documents dispute that led to him being held in contempt by the House last year.
In a ruling Monday night, U.S. District Court Judge Amy Berman Jackson turned down the Justice Department’s request to dismiss a lawsuit brought by the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee after President Barack Obama asserted executive privilege to prevent some records about the administration’s response to the “Operation Fast and Furious” gunrunning scandal from being turned over to Congress.

FORMER US SOLDIERS ARRESTED AS PART OF MULTI-NATIONAL DRUG TRAFFICKING, ASSASSINATION PLOT from Breitbart
Two former U.S. soldiers have been arrested and charged as part of an international conspiracy to distribute cocaine and assassinate a U.S. DEA agent. Several foreign former military members were also arrested as part of the same organization.
MEXICAN CARTELS RECRUITING ASSASSINS AMONG US TEENS, PRISON GANGS, MILITARY from Breitbart
Mexican cartel recruitment among members of the U.S. military was detailed by Fox News in a recent article titled, “Mexican cartels hiring US soldiers as hit men.”
Mexican cartels are recruiting hit men from the U.S. military, offering big money to highly-trained soldiers to carry out contract killings and potentially share their skills with gangsters south of the border, according to law enforcement experts.
The report details the stories of several U.S. servicemen who were involved in separate incidents of murder-for-hire in the service of Mexican cartels.
“The involvement of three American soldiers in separate incidents, including a 2009 murder that led to last week’s life sentence for a former Army private, underscore a problem the U.S. military has fought hard to address,” says FOX News. Stratfor’s Fred Burton was quoted stating:
Burton said some soldiers become corrupted by gangs after joining, while others are gang members who enlist specifically for the training they can get. "There has been a persistent gang problem in the military for the past six to eight years," Burton said, adding that cartels greatly value trained soldiers from the U.S., Mexico and Guatemala as sicarios – hit men.

I agree about the idea that gun (a good gun) can be a man's best friend. That man being attacked by a gang of idiots, in full gang mentality, must have been in fear for his life, and what about his wife and child. My thought would have been that, if I am going to be killed or maimed and the same for my wife and child, I would rather go down shooting. Where were the cops? Well it appears that the cops were there, but were at a loss for what to do. That answer is just too easy. Of course cops should blow their cover to prevent the potential killing of innocent citizens. Sadly, if the victim had been me, I would have been charged with “carrying a prohibited weapon”! Really. Once, in this town, I came home to find my front door forced open. I backed out to the street and called the cops (describing myself so as to not have a mix-up). The authorities arrived in record time, shoved me up against my car, patted me down, and ran my Driver’s License. In the mean time, the perp went out my back window and down the alley never to be found. Thanks a lot. I am grateful I didn’t have a ten year old warrant for my arrest for some little “C” Misdemeanor – which also has happened to me. I am scared to call the law for help. I am off topic, but I know women that are afraid to call the police when they are abused or assaulted out of fear that they may have an old warrant.
