It appears that we have synergy. I am shocked
The Democratic Govenor, the Democratic Senators, and the Federal Government, Our Local County Giovernment, agreeing, all in line together, Saluting! Yeah!@!
What will change, health Care for the Poor, new roads, better mass transit (not even on ANT one's Agenda BTW)
NOO we will:
Take Money from Shcools and Give it to the Security of our State, Make the police even more powerful, damn the torpedoes FULL Speed ahead!
More....
I sent a request for help to the Dept of Justice, feeling that the Maryland Police Officers break the law at will, and are nor held accountable at all.
Here is what I got back:
"We have determined that your complaint does not involve a prosecutable violation of federal criminal civil rights statutes."
So tell me what is a civil right these days anyway?
4th Amendment:
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
The Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution requires that searches and seizures conducted governmental authority be "reasonable". Toward that end, the amendment specifies that judicially sanctioned search and arrest warrants must be supported by probable cause and be limited in scope according to specific information supplied by a person (usually a peace officer) who has sworn by it and is therefore accountable to the issuing court.
So what is a civil right these days anyway? The right to be abused if the police decide they don’t’ want to defend you?
Sixth Amendment
"In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the state and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the assistance of counsel for his defense."
Could it be that we are judged guilty with out a speedy trial? Of some yet to be revealed to us transgression?
Or is this the truth?

Not my usual look, But blaming the victim seems so in line with everything happening here. It must be our fault as to why the Anne Arundel County Police found it necessary to ignore our constitutional rights.

Dpcuments filed in District Court today tells how a rookie cop groped a woman's breast during a traffic stop in Pasadena.
The cop stop the ladies and told the lady driver and her passenger to expose themselves or he would have them jailed for drunken driving.
Officer Joseph F. Mosmiller, 22, who has not been long as a cop, also used his cell phone to take a picture of his hand on the woman's breasts after he had pulled them over.
He was charged with fourth-degree sex offense, second-degree assault and two other misdemeanors. He has been in jail for one night and is waiting in hopes of a $250,000 bond at the Anne Arundel County Detention Center.
"These allegations are extremely disappointing, and if proven factual, are unacceptable," said Chief James Teare Sr. "I am, however, very pleased with the way these allegations, and subsequent investigation, were handled by the department."
This is the SAME Police Chief quoted earlier. Does he REALLY mean this?
So now what? Do we pray for relief from a Police state? Does the Governor make the necessary Adjustments? No instead in both the county and State budgets here they are diverting moneys form the schools and INTO the police departments.

Come on NO one is going to attack Anne Arundel County Maryland... all they would get is bored.
In order to protect this country, and county, we must protect each other, stand up for our neighbors. Love and respect each other, in stead we are stuck in a place where the elite THINK they know what si best for us.
The politics of this state, this county and this country. Are designed to only protect those whom contribute enough money to the Politician of the day, to be on the A list.

But government watchdog groups were more suspicious of the contributors' clout.
"This is another opportunity for corporations and other special interests to cozy up to the incoming governor," said Mary Boyle, a spokeswoman for Common Cause. "It raises the age-old question: Is someone contributing $25,000 to Martin O'Malley's swearing-in bash to buy influence?"
Following established practice, O'Malley has set up a tax-exempt corporation, the Maryland Inaugural Committee Inc., to raise money for the event. The corporation is not required by law to disclose its donors, but O'Malley intends to make all the contributions public, Abbruzzese said.
Ehrlich did the same. Twenty-two people and companies gave the $20,000 maximum for Ehrlich's ball, according to a list released by aides to the governor.
When will it end? When will we FINALLY get to an election NOT rife with PAC and Lobbyist money? When will we get Honest Government Again?
