California Awards $3.75 Million to BLM "Protester" For Being Shot By Cops... With Foam Bullets

This is what it looks like when the barbarians take control of what was once a civilization. Looting of law-abiding businesses is tolerated, and taxpayers are forced to pay the Danegeld to violent invaders.


A jury awarded $3.75 million in damages this week to a protester shot twice with hard-foam projectiles fired by Los Angeles police during demonstrations in 2020.

Jurors on Wednesday ruled that the LA Police Department was negligent when one or more of its officers fired the so-called less-lethal devices at Asim Jamal Shakir Jr., the Los Angeles Times reported.

Shakir had been filming a police skirmish line when he recognized his LAPD officer uncle among the formation and confronted him, shouting, "Our ancestors are turning over in their grave right now!" Shakir alleges that his uncle, Eric Anderson, then directed other officers to fire a hard-foam projectile at him.

Civil rights attorney Carl Douglas, who filed the suit on Shakir's behalf, said he hopes the sizable damages awarded will signal that similar acts of police violence cannot be tolerated. The award must still be approved by the City Council.

$3.75 million. For... foam "bullets."

And frankly, this smells like a fix-up lawsuit ginned up in a conspiracy between this uncle and his nephew. "Shoot me, uncle. Then I'll sue and we can share the proceeds."

I imagine the uncle failed to make a strong showing on the witness stand.

...

Shakir was struck once, then a second time while he was bending down to pick up a phone that had been knocked out of his hand by the first projectile, according to the lawsuit.

Shakir had to go to physical therapy for a year because of the injury to his hand, and he still suffers pain, his attorney said.

Uh-huh.

...

The incident occurred during mass protests that rocked the nation in the wake of George Floyd's killing at the hands of police in Minneapolis.

The city is still facing a large class-action lawsuit by Black Lives Matter-Los Angeles and other groups over its handling of the 2020 protests, according to the Times. Several other suits have already been settled.

Of course they are.

And meanwhile, California voters have voted to steal from the citizens who do the work of bringing food and necessities to them.

Smash-and-grab robberies are happening in broad daylight at stores throughout California and no one seems to be doing anything to stop them.

Two weeks back, a Nordstrom store in the west San Fernando Valley area of Los Angeles was attacked by a flash mob of 30 to 50 masked thieves.

They made off with armloads of designer merchandise valued at an estimated $60,000 to $100,000.

Online video of the robbery showed metal-and-glass display shelves sliding along the floor as the thieves dragged expensive handbags, still attached to anti-theft cables, toward the exits.

The previous week, a gang of thieves helped themselves to about $300,000 worth of goods from a Yves Saint Laurent store in a shopping mall owned by the recent candidate for LA Mayor, Rick Caruso.

And last Sunday, two robbers carrying trash bags ran into a Nike store in East LA and strolled out with shoes and other merchandise.

From store employees to police to prosecutors, the response to these smash-and-grabs seems to be, "Not much I can do about it."

California's criminal-justice system is broken and state voters helped to break it.

But voters had help from deceitful activists and politicians who tricked them into thinking they were voting for greater public safety.

One of those deceivers is George Gascón, now district attorney of Los Angeles County, where nearly 10 million residents in 88 cities are living with the full consequences of the 2014 initiative Gascón co-authored, Proposition 47.

The authors named the proposed law The Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act.

It promised to save money on costly incarceration and spend the savings on mental health and education programs.

With a favorable ballot description written by then-Attorney General Kamala Harris, it passed 60% to 40%.

Under Proposition 47, property thefts valued at less than $950 became an automatic misdemeanor, even if the stolen item was a handgun.

The measure also made incarcerated felons eligible for resentencing and release if their past crimes retroactively qualified as misdemeanors.

Californians quickly discovered that the promised "Safe Neighborhoods" had a lot of car break-ins.

The article further recounts successive "reforms" that have put more and more criminals back out on the streets, and legalized more and more crimes.

By the way, I don't believe this crap about Californians being "tricked" to vote to unleash waves of criminal anarchy and violence on themselves. They understood what they were doing.

They just thought they would be protected by the power of Unicorn Farts.

...

At a news conference last week, reporters pummeled Gascón with questions about whether his policies were contributing to the wave of smash-and-grab robberies.

He glared at them and snapped that they didn't have the facts.

Still, the facts are on the ground. "We feel like we can't walk in our own neighborhoods anymore," one former supporter of Gascón told The Post, "These criminals are not getting prosecuted -- and they know it."

We'll see how California voters voting to target those who sell food, clothes, medicine and other necessities works out for them.

I foresee some very intense whining about literal "food deserts" in California's future.

32 Oh, we're doing the same thing here in New York.

My neighborhood is now a pharmacy desert since Walgreens and CVS left, citing rampant theft.

And I can attest to it -- despite literally the entire store being locked up, I still saw people walking out with bags full of ice cream and beer and whatnot multiple times to no doubt resell to the bodegas down the street.

The funny thing is, I think there is some truth that people were "tricked" in to supporting it.

My LIV friends all supported bail reform and "decriminalizing poverty" and "defunding the police" and all of the policies that led here. And now they're all furious that stores are packing up and leaving and that homeless drug addicts took over the subway. "Why don't the cops do anything?!"

I think they were just easily swayed by the "this poor single mother of 3 shouldn't go to prison because she stole a loaf a bread to feed her family. We're criminalizing poverty!" and didn't use their brains to realize what would happen if they decriminalized crime.

Give him a little Singaporean caning followed by a year of cleaning litter off the roads on his weekends. You'll teach him a lesson he won't forget and allow him to still work at a normal job.

I think you're giving them too much credit. I know ace likes to listen to the boyscast podcast, so he might get the reference, but Ryan Long actually made a very insightful point on this a while back, despite being a dumbdumb himself.

He was talking about surfer culture in California, but it just as easily applies to NY or other blue places.

These are mostly upper middle class people who just don't care. They just want to go to their brunches, or surf, or do whatever. Their attitude is "oh there are homeless people? I don't know. Fix it. Get them apartments or something." and that's literally their entire thought process on the subject.

Same with "we're throwing people in jail for stealing a soda from 711? That seems silly, it's like $2. Just stop arresting people for that."

And thats literally as far as their thought process goes. It's kind of scary that people can give so little of a shit that they don't even pretend to think before forming an opinion, but it is what it is.

74 Out of control for years Kid after dark in heavy residential downtown Sacramento neighborhood thinks it's funny to smash parked car windshields randomly.

PoPo arrives with ghetto bird and spotlights him jumping fences fleeing in backyards. On ground cops corner him at gunpoint telling him to drop it and get hands up. He points it at cops and they drill him dead.

It was a cell phone. Wrongful death suit rains millions on family.

Wrongful death suits are supposed to remit to the family the value that the deceased would have accrued to the family. The Kid would have spent half his life in prison so only some consortium is indicated.

The system does not fight back. It surrenders.

Same with "we're throwing people in jail for stealing a soda from 711? That seems silly, it's like $2. Just stop arresting people for that."

Which is why those public crime databases that feed the "is this a good place to live" sites often show peaceful suburbs as being more dangerous than the ghetto.

In the peaceful suburb, people will call the cops if they're assaulted or burgled or raped or whatever. They have an expectation - reasonable or not - that the cops will do something about it, and they also tend to have stuff like insurance and insurance requires a police report. In the ghetto, they just don't call the cops because there's no point.

So the crime rate appears to be higher, and the peaceful CO suburb I lived in showed up as being more dangerous than bad parts of downtown Denver.

I heard someone discussing it only in regards with Nike. IIRC they lose $1M / day in merchandise to organized crime stealing it out of trucks and docks in the supply chain.

The supply chain level theft is cartel related, and that's scary to think too long about because 1) it's already in place and occurring like crazy, and 2) it will require military-level intervention to stop or prevent. That's almost certainly not going to happen, so they will just keep getting stronger and more brazen.

Where do you get that form? Oh that line over there. Should only take about an hour or two. But you already been waiting an hour and don't want to wait more? Well then you should have gotten your form first.

NEXT


Bonus points if the person directing you to another line gave you incorrect information about what form you needed and what line you needed to stand in.

Extra bonus points if the line you actually needed isn't staffed, because the morbidly obese gov't worker who normally does that job didn't feel like coming in that day.

153 126 The only reason NY has been liquid this long is that Democrats bailed them out after COVID with federal money. They are now spending huge sums on illegal immigrants and asking the federal government for money. To their credit, the House has said "stick it" and they're writing spending bills so they won't get any relief. Witchy Poo Hochul knows this ends badly because the state taxpayers are already near revolt. It's going to get randy. Get some popcorn.

NY spends so much on union graft, handouts, "free services" for illegal immigrants and permanent welfare cases they don't have money for infrastructure. Nothing gets fixed anymore. The mismanagement by Democrats is grotesque and it's going to end badly. We are now the #1 state for people leaving and the lowest replacement rate. The economics don't look any better. The people leaving the state were contributing far more to revenue than those coming in. It's not sustainable.

213 Peanuts are central to American food and especially our candy. There are two big reasons for this.

For the former, it's because we have a lot of peanuts. Peanuts are good for the soil, and the tobacco industry planted a lot of them to help the soil recuperate from the very harsh tobacco. They still do, but soybeans are also now often used for that purpose. Peanuts are also reasonably good for you and are high in protein (not complete protein, but nonetheless). And since we always had a peanut surplus because of other things, we found a way to use them.

This came to a head during the Depression, when everyone was broke and peanuts were used *everywhere.* The Roaring 20s and the Depression were also a period (probably not coincidentally) of tremendous candy innovation in the US, and peanuts made an appearance in many of the new candies that went on to become staples over time.

The "5th Avenue" bar is everything that the Butterfinger wished it could be. That Butterfinger is the worldwide popular candy and the 5th Avenue is virtually unknown is a prime example of market failure.

Posted by: sock_rat_eez - these lying liars have been lying for decades at August 29, 2023 03:09 PM (vbuLV)

222 Peanuts are central to American food and especially our candy. There are two big reasons for this.

For the former, it's because we have a lot of peanuts. Peanuts are good for the soil, and the tobacco industry planted a lot of them to help the soil recuperate from the very harsh tobacco. They still do, but soybeans are also now often used for that purpose. Peanuts are also reasonably good for you and are high in protein (not complete protein, but nonetheless). And since we always had a peanut surplus because of other things, we found a way to use them.

This came to a head during the Depression, when everyone was broke and peanuts were used *everywhere.* The Roaring 20s and the Depression were also a period (probably not coincidentally) of tremendous candy innovation in the US, and peanuts made an appearance in many of the new candies that went on to become staples over time.

254 Just noting that the career I retired from well over a decade ago involved being a Commissioned Peace Officer of the State. And I did that for 3 decades. I would also note in passing that we did not at that time have foam crowd control rounds. Our department used 37 mm multiple baton launchers [looked like an M-79] that fired a half dozen hickory "nuts" per round. Now they use the foam.

Speaking from the perspective of someone who has been there, done that, and who has more than a few of the unofficial shirts, I strongly recommend that any Peace Officers within 150 miles of the Pacific Ocean and arguably anywhere in any of the West Coast states find a job with another department here in America.

Oh and Kimbers.


Specialty stuff is, well, specialty stuff. Otherwise, for ordinary workaday handguns, we're in something of a golden age right now. There are tons to choose from and prices in terms of, say, hours of median earnings have probably never been lower. I recall some years ago someone writing that over long periods of time, the cost of a good gun was fairly consistently about one ounce of gold. We're way below that now.

258 Everytime some heinous malefactor goes to prison, his kids are effectively left fatherless. But no one laments prison time for these SOBs on that ground. Collateral damage is just part of life. So, yes, people in terrible jurisdictions who can be characterized as innocent in some way suffer right along with the guilty. But reaping as one sows, or in this case as the majority sows, is the most compassionate thing one can hope for, because it's the only possible device for change: that enough suffer enough to change a majority of the voters' minds.

Alcohol-free beer (and even some phony cocktails) are pretty common in Europe and it's a real market. In a lot of countries (including Ireland), they cracked down hard on drunk driving. If you so much as *look* at booze and then drive, you'll go to prison. They're ruthless about it in really extreme ways.

So if you're the driver and at the bar, you can't drink at all. That means you drink nothing, or you drink water or maybe a soda. Alcohol-free beer fills that gap. It doesn't shock me in the least there's fake Guinness there.

My experience of beer in Germany is that you go to a beer garden, they only have three on tap (usually two of them are the same), and you just sit there and have a good time outside.

449 Guinness had another beer called Kilkenny. Good flavor, lighter than the stout. Never seen it in the States, but when I was in Germany, it was one of my favorites. Oddly enough it was in an Irish pub that I was able to get it. Cool place. Looked like Bag End.

451 The most interesting takeaway is that Willis may have overplayed her hand by including Meadows. In doing so, she may have created the strongest avenue for removal. I believe that she hoped that Meadows would “flip.” Instead, he is leading the charge to federal court. Even if Judge Jones denies the motion, it can now be appealed and that are solid arguments here in his favor. If Willis showed greater restraint, she could have omitted Meadows and the strongest claim for removal. If he succeeds, it strengthens the case for others to seek removal.

452 I do not normally comment on Ace.

However, this got my attention: Mr. Jamal Shakir Jr. is complaining about his ancestors 'turning over in their graves'.

Mr. Shakir's ancestors are not buried here. He has no ancestral history here.

He can go back to his country of origin and grieve there.

“ rocked the nation”

I remember when the only thing that rocked the nation was night ranger.

That was before the communist takeover and ass kissing of shitty black rappers.

454 The media outlet reported Sunday — based on what it claimed was an April 21 memo from a top State Department diplomatic security official to Malley — that Malley’s top secret clearance was suspended over “serious security concerns” related to his “personal conduct,” “handling of protected information” and “use of information technology.”

It published what it said was the memo, which is labeled as “sensitive but unclassified.”

A person familiar with the investigation into Malley who has seen the original memo told POLITICO that the Tehran Times’ version appeared to match that original. Like others contacted for this story, the person was granted anonymity to discuss a highly sensitive topic.

461 Suicides by women in Afghanistan are skyrocketing according to a new report that has come out a year after President Biden catastrophically pulled US forces from the country handing it over to the Taliban.

The despair of Afghanistan women suffering under the deadly oppression of the Taliban is palpable to all women and it should bring great shame to the Biden administration.

One young woman was kept from becoming a doctor and then was forced into a marriage with her cousin who was a heroin addict. She felt she had nothing left to live for and proceeded to take her own life in a country where more women than men commit suicide.

.. but Biden promised safe abortions, so ...
