Police Beat

Waiting at a 7-Eleven for someone they can tase half to death & then beat w/ their batons. A minimum of five are needed for each individual citizen or alien (legal or otherwise) they assault. Looks as if they have a quorum.
We figure we took our life in our hands merely by shooting them. How much would you bet the littlest one on the right is a festering cauldron of deep-seated psychological "issues?"

Also a juicer, judging by the arms.

There are those who say that American urban police departments began to decline into something darker and much more dangerous with their adoption of military-style weapons, dress, even armored vehicles. And there is undoubtedly something to that - it is no longer possible to try to tell a small child that these clanking purveyors of death and mayhem are somehow "their friends, there to help them" rather than something to be feared, and avoided even in extrimis.

But I tend to think that the greatest indicator that THEY are no longer US is the excessive body building that has become de rigeur. Rather than being a part of the community they are supposed to serve and protect, they have become another armed gang - complete with their own colors and cultural affectations...

Caught In The Crossfire Editor:

The Dep't. of Defense started handing free/cheap surplus equipment to police dep'ts. post-Vietnam. There may not be any surplus gear left (except in Iraq) but manufacturers have stepped in to fill the gap & fuck the taxpayer.

Note that beyond the prisoner-like dedication to "fitness," only one of the five has hair more than a few millimeters long, in direct imitation of Hispanic gang members after they gave up on the hair-netted & sprayed pompadour & went for the displaced person recently shorn & dusted for lice look.

And of course the LAPD actively recruits former service members too.
