Larken rose states: “The problem is not just that “authority” can be used for evil; the problem is that, at its most basic essence, it is evil. In everything it does, it defeats the free will of human being controlling them through coercion and fear. It supersedes and destroys moral consciences, replacing them with unthinking blind obedience. It cannot be used for good, any more than a bomb can be used to heal a body. It is always aggression, always the enemy of peace, always the enemy of justice. The moment it ceases to be an attacker, it ceases to fit the definition of “government.” It is, by its very nature, a murderer and a thief, the enemy of mankind, a poison to humanity. As dominator and controller, ruler and oppressor, it can be nothing else.“
From [HERE] and [HERE] A white Colorado police officer has been arrested on felony charges after a video showed him using his pistol to beat Kyle Vinson, a Black man, he was attempting to arrest, choking him and threatening to kill him, and a second white officer was also arrested after authorities say she failed to stop her colleague as required by a new police accountability law [rules of morality don’t apply to police officers].
The incident took place on July 23. This past Monday, the Aurora Police Department said it issued two arrest warrants for the officers involved.
Body camera footage was shown Tuesday at a news conference of the Friday incident that happened in the Denver suburb of Aurora, whose police department has been plagued by numerous police misconduct cases in recent years including the 2018 death of Elijah McClain.
On the footage, Haubert told a sergeant after the arrest, "I was going to shoot him but I didn't know if I had a round in it or not," the documents state. Haubert also said blood on the man was from "pistol-whipping him."
White officers John Haubert and Francine Martinez responded to a call alleging three Black men were trespassing, which is a minor misdemeanor. After officers arrived at the scene, two of the men fled the scene, leaving Kyle Vinson alone. Apparently angry, the white cop decided to arrest Vinson.
The video begins with the white cop pressing his automatic weapon onto the Black man’s head, threatening his life. Vinson says ‘you have the wrong guy, I don’t have any warrants’ and asks ‘why are you arresting me.’ The Black man is visibly shaking and appears to be no threat to the police officers.
During the video the Black man repeatedly begs the officer to stop hitting him and yells "You're killing me," as Aurora police Officer John Haubert holds him down, strangles him and strikes him, the video shows.
If you move, I will shoot you," the white cop continually yells making felony threats against the man. While straggling him the officer says repeatedly "Stop fighting," as the man cries and gasps for air. Then the disfluent cop starts yelling over and over “GET ON YOUR FACE.” Vinson shows his hands surrendering and attempts to comply. Vinson was defenseless and during the attack was crying.
"I need water," Vinson yells as the body camera footage comes to an end. His head is bleeding in multiple areas and there are lumps and contusions on his face. He was hospitalized after he was arrested on suspicion of trespassing.
Aurora police Chief Vanessa Wilson called the arrest a "very despicable act" at the press conference.
Haubert now faces charges of attempted first-degree assault, second-degree assault, felony menacing, official oppression, and first-degree official misconduct. Martinez, who stood by during the beating, faces charges of duty to intervene and duty to report the use of force by a peace officer.
