In an effort to make New York an even crappier place to live, State Troopers are infesting the landscape everywhere, helping to fund the bankrupt and corrupt state by handing out tickets for the most minor of offenses. Earlier this week I was given a ticket for driving without a seat belt. I was driving [...]

I swear I’m not going out looking for stories about cops shooting dogs. They’ve just become so common that I stumble across them every couple of weeks in the course of casual surfing.
This time it was in Pittsburgh. A sheriff’s deputy, looking to serve papers on someone, went into the wrong backyard, where [...]

Via Windypundent here’s yet another story of a Thug in Blue shooting a dog for no reason. The dog runs up to him, which is what dogs do when a stranger comes on his property, but doesn’t look [...]

Maryland cops are now putting the names of peaceful activists on terrorist lists.
This follows on the heels of five paramilitary strikes against protesters just before the Republican National Convention. Groups with no history of violence were violently raided by SWAT teams, handcuffed, fingerprinted, and terrorized by police thugs. The cops then stole their political literature, [...]

Yet another incident where Thugs in Blue shot a harmless dog. This time they added insult to injury by stuffing the body into a plastic bag and leaving it by the curb as trash.
Doesn’t that make you happy that the boys in blue are there to protect you?

Cheye Calvo and his wife Trinity Tomsic lived in a nice suburban house with two black Labs. One of the reasons they chose their house was for the big back yard where the dogs could run.
They were relaxing in their home when armed thugs broke into their homes and shot their dogs. [...]

If you want to go fishing in any of the Great Lakes, be sure to have your passport. And to fax in all your ID info to customs an hour before you leave. And then visit customs afterward to have your photographs taken, along with a sliver of your dignity.
These are new rules [...]

In yet another example of police state extremes/stupidity, a man who swore at a police dog has been charged with animal cruelty.
“Police say Rogers yelled an obscene statement in the window as he walked past a patrol vehicle that contained a patrol dog “causing (the dog’s) behavior to become overloaded, tormenting the dog,” the affidavit [...]

When Michael Graham took his daughter to the pediatrician for a routine checkup, he wasn’t expecting that she’d be grilled about his drinking. He didn’t expect the doctor would ask his kid if he and his wife got along well, or if either of them used drugs, or of he made his daughter “feel [...]
