MORE ST LOUIS SHENANIGANS

First, I apologize for my absence.  I am working on another project and for my own sanity had to withdraw from the on-line world.  And all of the investigations regarding Ferguson are stirring up the local power structure, and this will effect Bi-State/Metro.   (The next impending financial crisis will likely be a repeat of 08, but with muni and other government bonds, instead of mortgages.  So there's that, too.)

However, here in Riverview things have been getting really weird.  Drones flying overhead during the day and late at night, cars getting dumped, expensive vehicles with heavy tints on the windows, and unfamiliar white people cruising around.) Yesterday was especially strange. 

Only one channel reported the shooting.  Here is the link and the message I sent to KPLR about it. 

I plan to be back on line in mid-June.  If you are in St. Louis, keep your eyes open.  A lot of hidden things are coming to light.  Those that aren't Ferguson or local P.D. related are being ignored or overlooked.  (And remember, as you read this, that Bi-State runs the airport in Cahokia.  Heroin is not coming to St. Louis on private planes and yachts of inner-city gangs.  Urban gangs to don't run the river ports.)

Regarding http://kplr11.com/2014/03/17/gruesome-shooting-leaves-one-dead-in-riverview/

I live here and I heard the shots.  I live near Northgate and Chambers.  At the same time this was occurring there were a number of emergency vehicles at the end of Chambers, where it dead ends passed SE Chambers Rd.  This part of Chambers is expensive homes.  The police blocked off SE Chambers and Chambers and there were ambulance and many different muni police cars and K-9 units there, too.  For this reason I assumed the shots came from that direction (sound carries here very strange, perhaps because of all the hills and valleys, I don't know). 

It would be nice if someone would start asking how poor urban black youth are able to get such a huge amount of heroin into the city, and how these alleged gang wars and shootings are funded.   I wish someone would look into the coincidence of the ATF sting operations since 2010 and the increase in shootings attributed to local gangs.  I wish someone would look into how the ports are handled here, and the history of illegal smuggling on the Mississippi river. 

Globally, it might be nice if someone looked into opium production in Afghanistan, and how it rises and falls with US involvement (rises when the US is control, falls when the US loses control). 

The investigations in Ferguson are disrupting secret power structures here that have been in place, undisturbed, for decades.  If you reject the story that this is all gang warfare and start really looking, a very different story begins to emerge.  Inept public officials, poverty imprisoned, angry, urban youth, and local drug dealers are a mask for a corrupt core of people who have used St Louis air and river ports for decades for their own dirty business.  The trail of violence and drugs leads out of the ghetto, not further into it.

TIME TO END THE “POLICE STATE”!!!

Their is a violent and dangerous gang terrorizing poor and “minority” communities. Michael Brown is just the most recent fatality. This gang is armed with guns and billy clubs. They have the right to detain citizens and to seize private property (“asset seizure”). That is too much power for any individual to possess without public accountability. Gang Police too often confuses enforcing the law with being the law itself. Crime has been decreasing, but police brutality has increased. Gang Police is becoming increasingly militarized.

Gang “Police” serves and protects private property to such an extent that unarmed thieves in the possession of a stolen $1 cigarillo can be shot dead. Or children walking in the street that contest an order to “Get the F**k on the sidewalk.”

We, The People, pay the salaries of Gang Police. We pay for their cars, their weapons, their jails. We pay for the lawyers and judges. The more crime a city has, the wealthier the people that work in and benefit from the legal system.

TIME FOR CHANGE. Real change. When people get angry enough they will loot and riot. Too many men have died in the street from the actions of this gang. Looting is not the answer, but it is the only reason this case is getting national attention. Without the riot, there would not be an FBI investigation. Al Sharpton would not be at the Old Courthouse. Looting is not the answer, but it is the only threat that Gang Police and their Overlords take seriously. They are a violent Gang, and the only respond to violence and upheaval.

What we really need, though, is to become angry enough to demand real change, and to continue working for it after the fires have been put out, the protest marches and press conferences have ended, and the investigations are over. Something good can come of this tragedy, if We, The People demand it, and keep demanding it, long after our tempers have cooled.

WE, THE PEOPLE, MUST BEGIN TO “POLICE THE POLICE”! They have the power to monitor us, to investigate us, and we must demand the right to monitor and investigate them! We have the right to full accountability for everything that they do! We must demand complete police transparency!

1) We must require all police to wear helmet cameras (or special glasses with cameras) at all times. Not dashboard cameras. Not just recording traffic stops and dispatch responses, their entire shift must be recorded. We are paying their salaries. We have the right to know what and how they are doing their jobs.

2) Photographs, bio's, and badge numbers must be posted on Police Department websites, along with regularly update schedules. We should be able to go to the Ferguson P.D. website and look up exactly who was on duty when Michael Brown was shot. The department should not be able to hide this Gang member behind the fear of death threats. Gang Police poses a potential death threat for every citizen they encounter. Maybe if the Gang Police Member (“officer”) that shot Michael Brown had known that his picture and name was posted for all citizens to see, he would have behaved differently. Maybe Michael Brown would be at college instead of the morgue.

3) Every citizen should have the right to have a civilian witness present at ANY interaction with a Gang Police member. Every community should have paid Legal Observers standing by at all times.

4) Police should be required to hold “meet and greets” at least once a month, along with Town Hall type meetings for people make suggestions, air grievances, and give feedback on officer's performances in their communities.

Occupy Public Transportation in St. Louis (OPTINSTL) is researching how to create a petition for the above demands, but we can start by calling or writing all of our local representatives and police departments and demanding the changes listed above. And anyone can start a petition. We need a lot of petitions and signatures to make our voices heard and get the changes we need. Two sites OPTINSTL has found:
