Is This the Zionist Occupied Gov’t War Against Its Citizens? Sure Looks Like It Is.

Nervous About Traffic Stops? I Am. You Should Be, Too [SHORT]

We’ve all been there before.

You’re driving along and you see a pair of flashing blue lights in your rearview mirror. Whether or not you’ve done anything wrong, you get a sinking feeling in your stomach.

You’ve read enough news stories, seen enough headlines, and lived in the American police state long enough to be anxious about any encounter with a cop that takes place on the side of the road.

For better or worse, from the moment you’re pulled over, you’re at the mercy of law enforcement officers who have almost absolute discretion to decide who is a threat, what constitutes resistance, and how harshly they can deal with the citizens they were appointed to “serve and protect.”

This is what I call “blank check policing,” in which the police get to call all of the shots.

So if you’re nervous about traffic stops, you have every reason to be.

Trying to predict the outcome of any encounter with the police is a bit like playing Russian roulette: most of the time you will emerge relatively unscathed, although decidedly poorer and less secure about your rights, but there’s always the chance that an encounter will turn deadly.

For instance, it was just a year ago, in the early morning hours of Dec. 1, 2016, when Gregory Tucker, a young African-American man, was pulled over by Louisiana police for a broken taillight.

What should have been a routine traffic stop became yet another example of police brutality in America.

According to the lawsuit that was filed in federal court by The Rutherford Institute, Tucker was thrown to the ground by police, beaten, arrested and hospitalized for severe injuries to his face and arm, allegedly in retaliation for “resisting arrest” by driving to a safe, well-lit area before submitting to a traffic stop for a broken tail light.

Mind you, this young man complied with police. He just didn’t do it fast enough to suit their purposes.

If this young man is “guilty” of anything, he’s guilty of ticking off the cops by being cautious, concerned for his safety, and all too aware of the dangers faced by young black men during encounters with the police.

Frankly, you don’t even have to be young or black or a man to fear for your life during an encounter with the police.

Just consider the growing numbers of unarmed people are who being shot and killed just for standing a certain way, or moving a certain way, or holding something—anything—that police could misinterpret to be a gun, or igniting some trigger-centric fear in a police officer’s mind that has nothing to do with an actual threat to their safety.

At a time when police can do no wrong—at least in the eyes of the courts, police unions and politicians dependent on their votes—and a “fear” for officer safety is used to justify all manner of police misconduct, “we the people” are at a severe disadvantage.

Add a traffic stop to the mix, and that disadvantage increases dramatically.

According to the Justice Department, the most common reason for a citizen to come into contact with the police is being a driver in a traffic stop.

On average, one in 10 Americans gets pulled over by police.

Indeed, police officers have been given free range to pull anyone over for a variety of reasons.

This free-handed approach to traffic stops has resulted in drivers being stopped for windows that are too heavily tinted, for driving too fast, driving too slow, failing to maintain speed, following too closely, improper lane changes, distracted driving, screeching a car’s tires, and leaving a parked car door open for too long.

Motorists can also be stopped by police for driving near a bar or on a road that has large amounts of drunk driving, driving a certain make of car (Mercedes, Grand Prix and Hummers are among the most ticketed vehicles), having anything dangling from the rearview mirror (air fresheners, handicap parking permits, troll transponders or rosaries), displaying pro-police bumper stickers, having acne, appearing nervous or driving with a stiff posture.

In other words, drivers beware.

Traffic stops aren’t just dangerous. They can be downright deadly.

From the moment those lights start flashing and that siren goes off, we’re all in the same boat.

Survival is the key.

Technically, you have the right to remain silent (beyond the basic requirement to identify yourself and show your registration). You have the right to refuse to have your vehicle searched. You have the right to film your interaction with police. You have the right to ask to leave. You also have the right to resist an unlawful order such as a police officer directing you to extinguish your cigarette, put away your phone or stop recording them.

However, there is a price for asserting one’s rights. That price grows more costly with every passing day.

If you ask cops and their enablers what Americans should do to stay alive during encounters with police, they will tell you to comply, cooperate, obey, not resist, not argue, not make threatening gestures or statements, avoid sudden movements, and submit to a search of their person and belongings.

The problem, of course, is what to do when compliance is not enough.

As I make clear in my book Battlefield America: The War on the American People, every day we hear about situations in which unarmed Americans complied and still died during an encounter with police simply because they appeared to be standing in a “shooting stance” or held a cell phone or a garden hose or carried around a baseball bat or answered the front door or held a spoon in a threatening manner or ran in an aggressive manner holding a tree branch or wandered around naked or hunched over in a defensive posture or made the mistake of wearing the same clothes as a carjacking suspect (dark pants and a basketball jersey) or dared to leave an area at the same time that a police officer showed up or had a car break down by the side of the road or were deaf or homeless or old.

Frankly, the only truly compliant, submissive and obedient citizen in a police state is a dead one.

If you’re starting to feel somewhat overwhelmed, intimidated and fearful for your life and the lives of your loved ones, you should be.

You should be very afraid.

I am.

Sanctuary for MURDER, but only if you’re an illegal: San Francisco jury grants immunity to illegal alien who admits shooting Kate Steinle

Image: Sanctuary for MURDER, but only if you’re an illegal: San Francisco jury grants immunity to illegal alien who admits shooting Kate Steinle

(Natural News) In the summer of 2015, illegal alien Jose Garcia Zarate shot and killed 32-year-old Kathryn Steinle. He claims the shooting was an accident, and that the gun shot Steinle all on its own, merely from Zarate touching the gun. (This is a common belief among anti-gun Leftists who are mechanically illiterate: They believe guns kill people on their own, without humans pulling triggers and aiming the sights.)

A San Francisco jury, following in the footsteps of the city’s “sanctuary” policies for illegals, has now found him “not guilty” of murder. Following the not guilty decision, Zarate’s attorneys decried Americans as “racists” for expressing outrage over the jury decision. (Yes, if you are angry about an illegal alien being acquitted of murder and manslaughter even after he admitted shooting Steinle, you are a racist!)

Author’s note: My wife is a legal immigrant. I am not anti-immigration. I support legal, orderly, merit-based immigration while at the same time strongly opposing illegal “immigration” which tends to attract violent criminals, felons and drug dealers into the country.

Jose Garcia Zarate, who admitted killing Steinle, was a five-time illegal immigrant who had seven felonies on his criminal record, including felony drug charges. The gun he used to murder Steinle was stolen from government officials. The only reason he was able to repeatedly re-enter the country and evade law enforcement for so many years is because of the “sanctuary city” policies of cities like San Francisco, which open reject cooperation with federal immigration officials. (And don’t stupidly claim he was an “undocumented immigrant,” after he entered the country illegally, in violation of law. Immigration is a legal process, and if you don’t follow it, you’re not an immigrant. You’re just a criminal who crossed the border.)

These cities, located in California and across America, are now “safe spaces” for murderers. They are also the creation of left-wing, anti-American liberals who despise white people and claim to be “pro-women” even while American women are gunned down by their protected illegal aliens. (Where is the outcry from feminists over the murder of an innocent woman?)

Helping make all this happen, former President Obama deliberately kept the U.S. border unprotected, knowing that the more illegal aliens crossed the border and came to America, the more votes Democrats would receive at every election, thanks to the fact that voter ID laws are routinely overturned by the liberal courts.

A HUGE slap to all the faces of Americans killed by ILLEGAL CRIMINALS today. Where in the hell is the justice system headed?!? Protection for illegals and nothing for AMERICANS!!! We need to unite and fight this BS 😡😡

“Rightfully, people are enraged and hurt. An illegal immigrant with an illustrious rap sheet got off scot-free after killing an American citizen – accident or not,” writes Jon Hall at The Gateway Pundit. “Kate Steinle’s memory and legacy has been desecrated and torn apart by a liberal west coast jury. The only choice we have – as we pick up the shattered pieces of this perversion of justice – is to honor and remember Steinle, and achieve real progress in her name.

San Francisco just declared MURDER is okay if you have brown skin

Radio host Michael Savage went ballistic in responding to the jury decision (and the lawlessness of San Francisco), calling for the arrest of Nancy Pelosi and other members of the “liberal establishment” while sending in federal troops to California’s lawless cities.

As he asks in the audio below, Savage wonders what would happen in the streets of San Francisco if a white felon had shot and killed a Latina woman while being declared innocent by a jury. The streets of the city, of course, would have erupted in complete chaos thanks to marching “Social Justice Warriors.”

Jury Finds Illegal Immigrant Not Guilty In Steinle Murder Trial

From his audio podcast:

I am unable to tell you the level of my disgust with Nancy Pelosi, with the whole illiberal criminal establishment. I think they should be arrested for what they’ve done. They killed this young woman.

Not only was this illegal alien piece of sh*t not found guilty for murder, but this illegal alien piece of sh*t, who has been deported five times, was not even found guilty of manslaughter.

So, let me ask all you good progressives a question. What if God forbid, a white man had shot a Mexican woman to death, and he was not found guilty on any charge? I want to ask you what would have happened in the streets of this sick, disgusting, degenerate city that I live in?

Liberal policies are turning America into a KILL ZONE where illegals are free to roam the streets, gunning down Americans without consequence

What’s now obvious to nearly every rational person (i.e. everyone except the left-wing cultists who are mentally ill and hopelessly deranged at this point) is that liberal “sanctuary city” policies have turned America into a kill zone, where illegals can open fire on U.S. citizens with impunity. The fact that left-wing politics has brought us to this point of outrageous insanity is yet another damning indictment of the stupidity and mental insanity of the Left.

“Why is one political party, the entire bureaucracy, and two-thirds of the remaining political party fetishizing and sentimentalizing immigrants who can’t speak the language, with a grade two education, and setting up competing jurisdictions in this country that protect them at the expense of American citizens,” asked radio host Mark Steyn. “It all adds up to a picture of not just treating illegal immigrants as you would American citizens, but giving them, in effect, better treatment — special privileges because they’re here illegally. It’s very hard to imagine that an American citizen in Zarate’s position would have been acquitted on all of these charges.”

If a white man had shot an innocent woman on the streets of San Francisco, he would be widely condemned and declared guilty. But the fact that an illegal alien fired the shot now grants this criminal legal immunity from his crimes is so beyond outrageous that it’s almost indescribable. (He wasn’t even found guilty of manslaughter. He was set free of all charges except possession of a firearm.)

California’s Left-wing lunatic politicians have truly turned California’s cities into lawless shooting galleries for illegal criminals, where no fair-skinned U.S. citizen is safe. (Follow more news on the utter collapse of California at the website Collapsifornia.com.)

This is what happens when illegal criminals are allowed to roam our country with no consequences. Secure our Borders, uphold our laws and get dim wit politicians out of office. AMERICANS FIRST🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 @realDonaldTrump

“Build the wall” reinvigorated

The backlash against this San Francisco jury decision is reinvigorating the movement to “build the wall” to prevent violent criminal illegals from entering the United States and committing mayhem and murder on the streets of America.

President Trump tweeted, “His exoneration is a complete travesty of justice. BUILD THE WALL!”

The Kate Steinle killer came back and back over the weakly protected Obama border, always committing crimes and being violent, and yet this info was not used in court. His exoneration is a complete travesty of justice. BUILD THE WALL!

Now, more than ever, given that liberal cities are openly protecting illegal alien murderers from justice, it seems that halting illegal immigration through other means might be the only meaningful way to prevent these violent criminals from murdering even more Americans in the years ahead.

Yes, we need legal immigration, with all the appropriate background checks and merit-based approvals, not unlimited, unrestrained illegal immigration where 7-time felons can waltz into America and start gunning down innocent citizens on the streets of liberal cities. Finally, if you live in a liberal city, the “sanctuary” politics of that city now mean that if you are murdered by an illegal, no one will be held accountable due to the “politics” of the situation.
