On December 5, 2005, Ryan John Podhorodecki slapped 2-1/2-year-old Blake Harvey twice in the head, then squeezed his face before pushing him so hard the child hit his head on a wall. Then Podhorodecki threw the boy on a bed and "folded him in half" so his feet met his head and held him there for a while. Then Ryan Podhorodecki went to sleep. The 2-1/2-year-old boy died … [Read more...]
NYPD Cops’ Big Brass Balls Prove Why #BlueLivesMatter
Under the heading of Big Brass Balls I give you NYPD Sergeant Hameed Armani and Officer Peter Cybulski. These two guys did what very few others would. When a man tossed a package into their police van that looked and sounded like a bomb these two NYPD cops did not run. They knew they were going to die but they refused to allow the bomb to detonate in Times Square. They … [Read more...]
Milwaukee Police Chief Edward Flynn Speaks Truth To Stupid
There are times when race baiters and reporters are so caught up in their own agenda they can't see what's going on around them. Milwaukee Police Chief Edward Flynn recently put these morons in their place after being accused of not caring enough about the subject of the press scrum in front of him. He was on his cell phone, you see. Unfortunately for the stupid ones … [Read more...]
Detroit’s Chief of Police Defends Right of “Mere Citizens” to Defend Themselves
I’ve written about Detroit Police Chief James Craig before. I could probably write about him weekly and the message would still be missed by those too brain-dead to comprehend Craig's support of civilian self-defense. James Craig believes every one of us has the right to defend ourselves against aggression, even if that means not dialing 9-1-1 until the problem is already … [Read more...]
Shocking But True! Good Cops Really Exist!
[powerpress] In the midst of the Geoff Mantler police brutality trial it's easy for us to forget that not all cops are brutal thugs with badges and guns who believe they are above the law. Some police men and women are actually, believe it or not, genuinely decent and honourable human beings. One such decent and honourable police officer is … [Read more...]
Kimmirut, Nunavut, and Sir Robert Peel’s 9 Principles of Policing
Fascinating news out of Kimmirut, Nunavut, yesterday. Kimmirut is located roughly 120 kilometres south of Iqaluit and is where RCMP Constable Douglas Scott was murdered in 2007. The tiny town has a long tradition of hating the RCMP enough to shoot at them. I’m sure that while most people in Canada don’t hate the RCMP enough to shoot at them, most people in Canada also … [Read more...]
Silver Lake, Wisconsin, Police Chief Dan Kingsley has the right idea about firearms
Study after study shows that firearms in the hands of law-abiding citizens reduces crime. In his landmark study of this issue, More Guns, Less Crime, John Lott, Jr. discovered that the paradox was overwhelmingly true. The more firearms there are in the hands of ordinary decent citizens, the less crime there was. Naturally the anti-gun crowd went nuts trying to find some … [Read more...]
RCMP Constable Jim Moir: A True Hero
I’ve said repeatedly that not all RCMP constables are like the sad examples that I so often cite on this site. RCMP Constable Jim Moir is one such decent constable. Constable Moir’s case happened almost a year ago, and I’m not sure why I never heard about it at the time, especially since it happened only an hour down the highway from Lytton. Be that as it may, I’d rather … [Read more...]
Finding a cop who actually knows and respects the law? Priceless!
It's such a beautiful sight to behold in today's raging wannabe police-state culture: a policeman who not only knows the law, but respects a citizen for invoking his rights. Officer Matt Lyons, Badge Number 1093, of the Oceanside Police Department was recorded stopping a man who was legally openly carrying a handgun as he walked down the street in Oceanside, … [Read more...]
Ontario’s SIU acquits Sault Ste. Marie Cop, and rightly so
I don’t generally have much positive to say about the Ontario Special Investigations Unit, but I do today. Late on September 4th, 2010, Sault Ste. Marie police were called to an apartment by a 9-1-1 call. When they arrived, one officer entered the apartment to find a man on top of a woman, knife in hand. She was bleeding from stab wounds she’d already suffered. The … [Read more...]
