(Once Canada & Mexico are on board we’ll present the North American version). <br /><br />From a safe distance use your zoom and shoot from the hip to capture; the Good, the Bad & the Ugly. Hint, the Good will pose and sign autographs and as we’ve witnessed the Bad & Ugly doing what they’ve been trained to do – will thwart your endeavors. Remember it's 2012 & they are rightfully recording as well. *There's a Contest in there somewhere. Be safe. Thanks.Thomas R.

If it ends up being shown that they did, then he is just as guilty as the murdering, lying, thief that took it in the first place to hide a crime.

I'm not really going to worry about what silly constume your wearing at the time.<br /><br />This rule is especialy apt in cases like this where even the United States Attorney General has said the action is legal and NOT a crime and so has the UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT.<br /><br />So in my book once they touch you they are no longer operating within the law therefore the protections afforded a govt agent against any response even a violent one is gone.<br /><br />So at that point break their ass in half and move on.<br /><br />If your really really pissed at that time you can then go after the fucktard govt stooge ...their boss who is covering for thier asses.rodsmithnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-21587131433097780852012-10-18T10:42:01.409-05:002012-10-18T10:42:01.409-05:00Use an app called QIK which allows you to record v...Use an app called QIK which allows you to record video to the web in real time which renders deleting your video from your phone a moot issue.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-65412196315129754472012-10-18T10:28:56.013-05:002012-10-18T10:28:56.013-05:00“But many police departments are behind in develop...“But many police departments are behind in developing social media policies and guidelines for their officers."<br />Yes, some of today’s generation have no common sense so they must be directed by a freaking written policy.

That language may have been there, but we don't know that for certain. In the absence of language threatening to harm the Leo by an unlawful act, there would be no retaliation.<br /><br />dorannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-80510573736271951022012-10-16T14:12:48.307-05:002012-10-16T14:12:48.307-05:00We often receive threats from law enforcement rega...We often receive threats from law enforcement regarding our Facebook page and the documentation of the child sex crimes that we do. <br /><br />Supposedly we were to be served with lawsuits several times for posting photos of police officer/ pedophiles we copied from the Facebook pages of the officers involved. To date, we have yet to hear from any attorneys representing cop-pedophiles. <br /><br />As far as we're concerned, if anyone has photos of the 10,000+ pedophile-police that we have profiled on our Facebook pages please let us know and we'll gladly post them. <br /><br />We could care less if they are undercover or not. Especially if they're from the public domain and social sites like Facebook. Our attorney has assured us this is a free-speech issue and he'll defend our rights to the very end.<br /><br />http://www.facebook.com/pages/Tribute-to-survivors-of-child-sexual-assault-by-law-enforcement-officers/180584842010594?sk=wallAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-71037710214647410522012-10-16T11:30:24.944-05:002012-10-16T11:30:24.944-05:00As cheap as video capability has gotten everyone s...As cheap as video capability has gotten everyone should have $300 dual cam and microphones installed in their car to dispute bad stops and document accidents. Your cell phone can download a program that allows you to transmit its video to the internet in case police confiscate the camera or SD card. So if the police try to dispose of your personal dashcam video and you are are to record them dong it on your cell phone you will have the goods to nail him. Check out Veterans Against Police Abuse for some ideas on documenting these abuses. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
