THIS REALLY GRINDS MY GEARS...

Now here's a video of a student at the University of Florida. He is at a microphone asking 2004 democratic presidential candidate John Kerry a question. He is up there for a little bit of time because he is prefacing his question to give the other members of the audience info about what he is about to ask.

Subsequently his mic is turned off and 2 "bad ass" cops arrive next to him to escort him out. Now if I were in this guys shoes, I would have done the same thing. Having done nothing wrong, seeing 2 cops at my side, I would be quite perturbed at how the situation got so hostile. SERIOUSLY....JUST FOR SOME QUESTIONS....apparently the wrong questions.

Ill let you watch the video to see what happens next......if you are a normal human being......and your name isn't Ann Coulter or Bill O'Reily........you will find this to be quite saddening but not surprising none the less.


In the words of Peter Griffin...........THIS REALLY GRINDS MY GEARS


Theres a reason why the phrase "fuck the police" exists.

There's a reason why the many groups/artists have made songs about cops, and not ones of praise either.

There have been many incidents in this country's quite recent history where the police have taken advantage of their "protector of the people" power for something other than good.

Aight, to put it bluntly, police think they are the shit, and they can do anything they want.

Sometimes, police are forced to take actions in their duty of "protectors" but sometimes these actions are extremely over the top just for the reason of "we can". And thats what needs to stop.

Just because you could shoot someone doesn't mean that it has to be done. Excessive force is not always the answer.


Keep in mind, there are good cops out there but their fellow co-workers have given the whole force a bad rap that you cant help but hate all of them.

I've only met one good one in my life......one.

In the words of NWA, Dead Prez, J. Dilla, Bone Thugz and Harmony, Kanye West.....and many others....FFFFFFuckthepolice
