It seems some Americans think that if we just obey the police, they will never do anything bad to us. That is unAmerican and unChristian. Christians must resist tyranny. The police are behaving as if they are an occupying army in enemy territory.

Never Trust a Government Official Who Demands Unconditional Obedience
Check out this 27 second video:
The Kelly File Interviews David Clarke
This guy comes off as a conservative, but what he says in this video is the exact opposite of conservatism or what it ought to be. Below are a few awesome comments from Bojidar Marinov.
The key word is “comply.” He doesn’t give any promise that the police are going to give only lawful orders. In fact, he assumes that cops are also going to give unlawful orders because he says that we should leave grievances for later. We can’t have grievances if the orders are only lawful. Which means he wants us to obey ALL orders, lawful and unlawful, and complain later, but he doesn’t promise that the unlawful orders won’t leave some permanent damage: like an innocent person executed like a dog. What good is to complain later when the damage is done?

Submit only as long as you need to protect your life and the lives of your loved ones. But this submission has nothing to do with allegiance or willful obedience. Just as with any occupation force, you need to do everything you can to make it as expensive as possible for them to make you submit. Just as we did under Communism: Submit only after the government has spent tons of resources and energy and nerves to make you submit, and then submit just a notch before you are killed. This is the Biblical way to treat an occupation force. Solzhenitsyn gives some good ideas in his books.
A someone who has lived under Communism, I have a rule: NEVER TRUST A GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL WHO DEMANDS UNCONDITIONAL OBEDIENCE! No matter how good and righteous and serious and trustworthy he looks like, he is a monster. No honest person demands unconditional obedience to himself; only those who want your life, liberty, and property want unconditional obedience.
So, we need to fight tyranny smart, but one thing is absolutely sure: making it easier for tyrants to rule over you is the stupidest way to fight tyranny. Solzhenitsyn explains it. The smartest way is this: MAKE IT EXPENSIVE FOR THEM. Talk back to them, demand that they show you proofs for the legality of their actions, take your time when submitting to orders, film them always when you can, make every move of theirs public and subject to scrutiny, speak against the very concept of police, show how we don’t need police, point to corruption in the police, and always in your conversations point to the inherent immorality of the police job. Make them be ashamed that they are cops. This is the way to deal with an occupation army. Anything else is submission to tyrants, and therefore disobedience to God.
A standing army is an occupation army. It must be resisted in the best possible, wisest possible, most effective way.

It’s a completely modern misunderstanding. After all, it was the Reformation that laid the foundation for so many revolutions that changed Europe and the world. That theology of unconditional allegiance is actually paganism, a belief in the divinity of the state and its agents. Unconditional allegiance is owed only to God. If you proclaim such allegiance to the state, you have made the state a god.
Gang Members on a Power Trip
The 4th Amendment is more important than the safety of the police and more important than the safety of the citizens. Those who give up freedom for security will end up with neither.
Retarded
These cops don’t know what a phone is. I wonder if they eventually called in a detective to investigate the device. The sad part is they’ll probably be promoted to detective.
By the way, the 1st Amendment protects our right to film public officials performing their duty.
A Real Tough Guy
Clearly this deputy thinks he can do whatever he wants. It’s one thing to slap someone around when you have a badge and gun, and another to slap someone when they can defend themselves. The only reason he doesn’t get slapped back is because the victim knows he’ll get arrested or shot.

Is This Guy Stupid?
I think this guy is a little bit smarter and knows a little better than the average cop that he can’t demand ID (even though he tried). But he still can’t just admit he’s wrong and just walk away.
It’s amazing how easy it is for Jeff Gray (the guy behind the camera) to get the cops to show what a bunch of thugs they are.
Police Trip Pregnant Woman
In addition to tripping a pregnant woman, they also beat the crap out of a guy, and try to delete the video. The police consultant in the video says beating the guy was a bad idea, but it’s OK to trip the pregnant lady. I disagree. Part of the cop’s job is to protect the baby, and tripping the woman placed the baby in danger. There were other ways to handle the woman. There were several officers there, and one of them could have gotten off the guy and calmed the woman without attempting to hurt her.
These are just gang members beating someone up.

Evil Raw Milk Buyers
If we just pass enough laws, people will never get sick, right? We can have heaven on earth, right?
These people are not children. Raw milk has been consumed throughout human history, but all of a sudden we’re all going to get sick. This is pure evil.
Give me liberty or give me death.
One of the Best Open Carry Stops I’ve Seen

These officers are acting illegally in detaining this man. Thankfully, it seems they met their match. Most Americans just lick their boots and do what they’re told.
It only lasted a few minutes, but they violated the 4th Amendment. Are these cops ignorant or do they just not care about the Constitution?
