Here’s a simple proof for the proposition that there are no good cops.
My parents listened to Charles Stanley a lot, and I listened along with them. This story is from a guy I know who was involved in Operation Rescue in the 1980s or whenever.
Charles Stanley standing with me across the street from Atlanta’s Surgi center watched the police arresting the men women and children blocking the door keeping the murderer away from His victims. On showing him the unborn child I was carrying in a small coffin in my hands, and explaining to him what was happening on this late term abortion day, his response was to quote to me what every Nazi in history every state worshipping follower of Moloch has said when cornered on the question:
“The police are just doing their job.”
Whatever Grace, or assurance or free will or predestinarian window dressing he might have gussied up his theology with, I don’t know. I just know personally what I saw.
At the highpoint of 10’s of thousands of Christians streaming into Atlanta, to personally make it impossible for anyone to get into the abortion clinics there — three of which bordered Dr. Stanley’s 10th Baptist Church property. I met with him twice once in his office and once on the street outside Surgi Center during a rescue. As police were dragging the Christians away, I pointed out the pregnant mothers whom the police were actively keeping the Christian women away from. It was their late term day. I mentioned this to Dr. Stanley and took the lid off the tiny coffin I held showing him an 8 month Saline aborted child. He looked and asked, “Is that thing real” I answered, “She is the same age as the children across the street inside their mothers. See how the police are keeping them from talking to those Christian women one of them is my wife.”
The fact is the man spoke in the name of Jesus Christ as the leading pastor of the Churches in Atlanta. He spoke for the Nazi concept that the police obeying the law — like the Roman Centurions with Christ — were only obeying the law. He met with Major Burnett who headed up the Atlanta PD and encouraged him to perform whatever it took to clear the door of these law breakers.
He is one with the Leaders of Old Covenant Israel, cut off from the vine if they were: “We have no King but Caesar may these children’s blood be on our head an on the head of our children.”
What did he unleash on his family and city and what have we all participated in unleashing on our country? Next time you complain about the flood of forced identity in every public place and the paralysis of Christian response, remember his words. and
Remember Charles Stanley’s confession of faith in the state when you look at the news and reflect on it in the light of Deuteronomy 28:32 “Your sons and your daughters shall be given to another people, and your eyes shall look and fail with longing for them all day long; and there shall be no strength in your hand. 33 A nation whom you have not known shall eat the fruit of your land and the produce of your labor, and you shall be only oppressed and crushed continually. 34 So you shall be driven mad because of the sight which your eyes see.”
If you care to find out what the Bible says about the Ahmed Arbery case, the case of Michael Brown from several years ago is a good comparison. Bojidar Marinov gave an excellent, and thorough application of biblical case laws to that situation. Here’s the article in pdf format. You can download it and read it in whatever format you prefer.
“Under the Law of God, the guilt is always on those who had drawn first. They are the murderers. In that context, even if he tried to draw, it was legitimate self-defense.
These government thugs must be taken to court and then duly executed. Until they are executed – every single one of them – there will be no justice in this case.
But the blame is on the local cops. It is the local Sheriff who must be re-called, tried, and executed for conspiracy and treason against his constituency.”–Bojidar Marinov
I like what Gavin Seim said, and I share his optimism that someday there will be buildings and roads named after Lavoy Finicum for having laid down his life for his friends. Which is more than you can say for the coward cops who murder people when they see their shadow.
It’s hard to imagine a more evil person has existed. She is someone who murdered 8 people the day before, and harvested their organs for medical experimentation, and calmly discusses it over lunch.
This woman needs to be brought to justice.
This is awesome information from a super theonomist. We as Americans have set up all these situations where it’s OK for cops or sometimes individuals to kill people. But do our laws line up with God’s law?
This is the article that was the article that was being referred to earlier in the coversation.
Here’s a couple paragraphs to whet your appetite for the beauty of God’s law.
Bojidar Marinov:
I believe that Brown was justified from the very beginning, and Biblically he would be innocent if he had killed Wilson. Wilson was the aggressor from the very beginning, and killing him was a legitimate self-defense.
When you have an aggressor with his weapon pointing at other people, killing that aggressor doesn’t incur bloodguiltiness. Not being guilty for blood when you kill someone is the same as innocent.
Skip down a few comments to the tender, beautiful, juicy meat.
Brown would have been innocent for the specific encounter with Wilson. The other case, the supposed “theft”, was not proven, and Wilson had no right to try to arrest Brown on suspicion.
The concept of “arrest on suspicion” – and the related concept of “suspect” – are anti-Biblical. There is no law in the Bible that allows any act of violence except for direct defense or self-defense (and that under severe limitations) or under court orders. By the Biblical Law, Wilson was an aggressor. His drawing his gun to shoot at a fleeing unarmed person made him an aggressor who could be killed on the spot. Brown’s charging was justified, then.
By the way, American jurisprudence – at least in theory – is much closer to the Biblical Law on this issue and – at least in theory – doesn’t allow for “executive arrest” (that is, arrest not on court’s orders), and neither does it recognize the concept of “suspect.” Both executive arrest and designating people as “suspects” is a new development, of the last 20-30 years, and is a direct violation of the very principle behind American Law. In this, modern police is fundamentally illegal, for it has appropriated prerogatives that are not given to it by law. Therefore, while not always wise, resisting cops is always legal.
Just about 50 years ago, police could arrest people only on a court warrant, or when directly involved in a crime scene. No cop could arrest anyone on suspicion only, or for “resisting arrest.” If Wilson believed Brown was the thief, he should have followed him, get his name, and then procure an arrest warrant from the court.
So, yes, Wilson had no legal right to try to arrest Brown, and Brown would have been innocent if he killed Wilson. On the other issue, stealing the cigarettes, there we should have had a trial. We never had that. So he is innocent, as far as civil courts go. Before God, it’s another matter.
And to polish off the meal with a delicious desert:
As a common usage with the police, “suspect” was a leftover from the Jim Crow period in the American South. The full term originally was “suspect race” and applied to blacks. It was not defined legally – by the American jurisprudence, there is no such thing as a “suspect”: a person is either “defendant” in court (or “perpetrator”) or “innocent” (that is, free and immune against arrest). The police in the Southern United States during the segregation period used the term “suspect race” for the same reason as it is used to day: to arrest blacks for no reason whatsoever, just to instill terror and insecurity in them and thus keep them under control. After the end of the segregation, the cops just picked up the term and continued using it anyway.
Another term that is being used in a more formal way is “person of interest.” It means the same as “suspect,” and again, it has no legal definition. It was used first against Vietnam-era war-protesters, civil rights leaders, etc. No lesser person than the Attorney General of the US John Ashcroft used the term officially and then had to apologize for it and admit that the law had no legal definition for “person of interest.” (See Hattfield vs. Ashcroft.)
In general, given that “suspect” is not a legal term, we can say that between 60 and 90% of all arrests by police in the US are illegal, and under the Biblical Law (and also under the laws of almost every state) should be classified as kidnapping. If we include every stopping of a civilian by police officers, which is not officially an arrest but practically restricts the freedom of movement of the civilian, the percentage would rise to more than 95%. We can safely say that the two major functions of modern police are extortion and kidnapping. Crime prevention is a rather insignificant side issue – and usually happens by mistake or is an unintentional result of police work.
The city settled for $1.5 million on this one. The guy was supposedly hard of hearing and had earphones in. He was given only a few seconds to comply. I don’t know why him carrying a knife was even a problem for this murderous cop. The cop should receive the death penalty. (That’s not just my opinion, but the teaching of the Bible.)
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.
