Child endangerment

Written by Ben on May 9th, 2010

That’s what the police charged the parents with. After they shot the family dog in front of their seven-year-old kid.


I got it from The Agitator, who writes:

It’s horrifying, but I’d urge you to watch it, and to send it to the drug warriors in your life. This is the blunt-end result of all the war imagery and militaristic rhetoric politicians have been spewing for the last 30 years–cops dressed like soldiers, barreling through the front door middle of the night, slaughtering the family pets, filling the house with bullets in the presence of children, then having the audacity to charge the parents with endangering their own kid. There are 100-150 of these raids every day in America, the vast, vast majority like this one, to serve a warrant for a consensual crime.

The rest.

More thoughts later.
