POPSTaser gun used on 10-year-old girl who 'refused to take shower' A police officer used a Taser stun gun to subdue a 10-year-old girl in her own home. ""If you can't pick the kid up and take her to your car, handcuff her, then I don't think you need to be an officer. She doesn't deserve to be treated like a dog. She's not a tiger." Local Mayor Vernon McDaniel said the FBI should investigate. He said: "People here feel like that he made a mistake in using a Taser, and maybe he did, but we will not know until we get an impartial investigation." The local Police Chief Jim Noggle said no disciplinary action was taken against Bradshaw. "We didn't use the Taser to punish the child, just to bring the child under control so she wouldn't hurt herself or somebody else," he said. He said if the officer tried to forcefully put the girl in handcuffs, he could have accidentally broken her arm or leg. Mr Noggle said the girl will face disorderly conduct charges as a juvenile."

POPSUK has 1% of world's population but 20% of its CCTV cameras
An old article but still pretty accurate. you cannot move in London without being seen by at least 3 cameras at any one point. It is the definition of a police state, the police also have sub-machine guns, (H&K MP5k's for anyone interested) while you can be arrested for carrying a penknife if its blade is more than an inch long, because of the laws now concerning blades and knives. as well as the other tricks like LRADs (not new) which are now common place around the world. All backed by by ignorant and dangerous attitudes of the police. Again as always don't take my word for it look it up. The report says: "It is not entirely absurd to imagine that supermarkets' loyalty card data might one day be used by the Government to identify people who ignored advice to eat healthily or who drank too much, so that they could be given a lower priority for NHS treatment". "We have supermarkets collecting data on our shopping habits and also offering life insurance services"

POPSPermission? Long article at source - required reading... The public has an legal obligation to let the government know when they are displeased, and the only part that armed thugs in police uniforms need to play in this is to insure that the traffic flow continues (around the demonstrations), and that property is not destroyed. That's what they get paid to do. It is not the job of "police" to censor or to silence whatever the public has come out to say-to the so-called powers-that-be.

POPSG20 2009: Police Attack Students at University of Pittsburgh The campus was invaded by armored police officers. They threw actual tear gas into crowds of students. They SHOT students with rubber bullets. They beat slower-moving students with a baton. I saw a group of cyclists being herded down the sidewalk. A cop reached out and pushed a woman on a bike. She turned around and pushed her bike at the cop. Next thing we knew, he grabbed her by the face and slammed her down on the concrete.'

POPSSonic military weapon purchased by San Diego police department! For Crowd Control! It is not the high frequency you need to worry about. there are certain low frequency sound waves that can cause vomiting, diarrhoea, disorientation, haemorrhaging and even death. Never mind the whole thing with resonant frequency, where all matter can be shattered, you only need find what frequency works on what. Such an experiment was carried out by Nikola Tesla using a matchbox sized battery operated device, with which he very nearly destroyed a building before leaving hurriedly. What do you think these given their size and power are capable of achieving? Expect these to be common place.

POPSFrench Government To Use Swine Flu Threat In Crack Down On Liberties "The news comes on the back of last week's revelations that the French government plans to impose a mass swine flu vaccination program on the entire population. According to a leaked internal document singed by the French Health Minister and the Minister of the Interior, the program would be focused around regional vaccination centers and would be carried out by H1N1 injection teams, completely bypassing medical establishments and GP’s. According to the document, schoolchildren will also be vaccinated by mobile injection squads who will travel from school to school, covering the entire country. Babies from 6 months old will also be given the shot. To date just fifteen people have died of swine flu related complications in France. "

POPSFree Speech to be Curtailed at Winter Olympics 2010 in Vancouver "The bylaw relaxes rules for Games-related events, limits free expression and speech in public and private spaces, and grants sweeping discretionary powers to Mayor Gregor Robertson and City Manager Penny Ballem to do whatever is "warranted," "necessary or desirable" to ensure the Olympics' "safety and security" and "protection of commercial rights."" This very open to abuse and should be examined cautiously by anyone planning to attend.

POPSTax-Feeders and Manufactured “Crimes” " Police in Austin, Texas recently sprang a trap of that kind on Mark Douglas Ledford and his girlfriend, Asia Ward. Austin’s “Finest” parked a green Honda Accord near Ledford’s home. Curious, Ledford consulted with his neighbors in the hope of identifying an owner; then he reported the vehicle to the police. A pair of officers paid a brief visit to the neighborhood and spoke briefly with Ledford. “I told them, `Isn’t it strange that someone parked their car there with the windows down and the keys in it?’” he recalled. The police replied that there was no problem, since the car was parked legally, and then left."

POPSFBI Says Boston Cops Need M-16s to Prevent City from Becoming Next Mumbai "The FBI is merely playing its assigned role. From the Pentagon to the Department of Homeland Security to the FBI, the government is on the fast track to turn the country into a police state from sea to shining sea. A major part of that effort is the militarization of the police, a process already well along. Let’s hand it to Boston Mayor Tom Menino — he didn’t buy into the FBI’s malarkey about a terrorist event that will probably never happen." Click the Associated Press Link for the original article.

POPSGovernment Permission Will Be Required to Travel "Protecting air safety is essential, but professional screening at airports already provides for it. Giving the TSA as an official agency the additional authority to decide who gets to go where reaches beyond safety into overextended governmental power. This newly minted "Secure Flight" rule fundamentally imbalances long-standing citizens' rights both to travel and to be left alone. If your name appears among hundreds of thousands on "watchlists," you assert that the government should not require ID to fly, you don't want to reveal your date of birth for concern about identity theft, or you don't choose to declare your gender, you can stay home.

AKA. life in the UK. It literally brings tears to my eyes to see a once proud nation subdued to such an extent. US and the world take heed! "Voltaire called England 'the land of liberty'.

POPSRefusing Vaccination Labels You a “Criminal”, So Says WHO
Here are ten key points associated with MSEHPA: Under the Model State Emergency Health Powers Act, upon the declaration of a “public health emergency,” governors and public health officials would be empowered to: Force individuals suspected of harboring an “infectious disease” to undergo medical examinations. Track and share an individual’s personal health information, including genetic information. Force persons to be vaccinated, treated, or quarantined for infectious diseases. Mandate that all health care providers report all cases of persons who harbor any illness or health condition that may be caused by an epidemic or an infectious agent and might pose a “substantial risk” to a “significant number of people or cause a long-term disability.” (Note: Neither “substantial risk” nor “significant number” are defined in the draft.) Force pharmacists to report any unusual or any increased prescription rates that may be caused by epidemic disease.

POPSThe Obama opiate: Crisis deepens, crowds cheer
"The destabilization of Iran, a product of massive US covert operations (and overt political manipulation) continues unabated, built upon the pretext of “restoring democracy”—a “stolen election” hoax, and an aggressive “color revolution” spearheaded by Anglo-American surrogates, aspiring puppets, and hordes of intelligence assets and so-called “liberals” touting “democracy”. The Iranian corridor remains critical, for the control of Central Asian and Middle East energy, and the Anglo-American empire is intent upon controlling it. A blatant coup in Honduras has been carried out in the classic fashion, according to the same intelligence playbook that has been at the core of US-Latin America policy since the Iran-Contra era; the same destabilization tactics used in recent years to topple the governments of Venezuela and Haiti. Domestically, Obama has endorsed the continued surveillance of the American people, and an even more ironclad electronic police state. While the average Ameri
