This woman who got mowed down by the Heroes up in DC?DC Heroes

It got me to thinking – about how much has changed since I worked in DC, back in the ’90s. Before the police state really began to throb after nahhnleven.

Back then, I worked at The Washington Times, and drove into the city every day from neighboring Fairfax County. One afternoon, heading home on Constitution Avenue, I heard some sirens, looked in my rearview, and beheld a motorcade – perhaps the Dear Leader himself! It was rapidly gaining. Everyone else pulled over and off. Me? Screw the Dear Leader (or whomever it was in that black armored limo). I needed to get home – and my time matters more to me than the Dear Leader’s time.

Or even the Dear Leader, himself.

So, I kept on going, hoping to make it to the bridge – and onto the GW Parkway – before the motorcade caught up.

But they were really hauling the mail – and did catch up.

And I did not pull over.

Whereupon a blacked out Suburban pulled in from of me – and its back doors opened up, to reveal an enraged Hero, armed with what looked to me to be an Uzi (compact machine pistol). He screamed at me to get out of the way.

But that was all he did.

 

Which is why I risked doing what I had done. In those days – long gone, hard to believe they were ever real – citizens didn’t risk being summarily executed for minor acts of disobedience.

I moved off, the motorcade went by. I was not “detained” – much less shot at. They went their way – and I went home.

End of (true) story.

Fast forward 20 years to yesterday. A woman – a mother – with a baby in the back seat – is shot to death for more or less the same thing I did. Obliterated, like Sonny Corleone at the toll both.

I am glad I left DeeCee long ago.

Or else, I might not be here, now.

Throw it in the Woods?

  1. The capitol cops and the SS simply executed this woman who was fleeing from the white house (rather than trying to bust in) and they’re simply getting a pass on it. Add to that pass a standing ovation from the house of reps, and what do you get?

    This story has already been packaged by the infotainment industry and will disappear from the TV screens pretty soon. At least now we know how the current administration handles babymomma drama.

    • Ed – I was down at a local sporting goods store Sunday and brought this incident up. I raised questions about “due process of law” and pointed out that this was an example to the rest of us that we are all Afghanis or all Iraqis now. One of the clerks that identifies himself as “conservative” made the comment that “She got due process of law: All fifteen rounds of it. Hee-hee.” So I explained that turning around and trying to leave a checkpoint is not a crime and certainly not worthy of summary execution.

      Whereupon the other clerk, whom I would guess to be in his late 70’s said this was the same issue as when he is called up for jury duty. When the judge asks if they can be fair and impartial he has a hard time with that, since he believes that if the accused was arrested in the first place, they must have been doing something wrong. So I pointed out that our ancestors expended a tremendous amount of blood and treasure kicking out a regime that wrote bogus search warrants, made arbitrary arrests, manhandled the citizens and took their property without due process of law. And that psychopaths, evil people, invariably seek positions of authority from the police force all the way up to the presidency. They will falsely accuse and imprison those that disagree with them regardless of the era or system of government. I could tell by the look on his face that he could not rebut it and this bitter ray of truth pissed him off. So be it. A man that age should have acquired enough wisdom through life experience to have already known better.

  2. Nubian slave girl Miriam drove her ox cart along with her infant daughter down to the Forum the other day. She was unaware that the Praetorian Guard was on patrol, swaggering around bragging about the previous night’s whoring and drinking. Upon spying the slave girl, the Praetorian Guardsmen began yelling obscenities at Miriam, threatening her, brandishing weapons and ordering her down off the cart. Confused and panicked by these loud and belligerent men, the slave girl turned her ox cart around and brushed one of the guardsmen with a wheel as she left they area as fast as she could for fear of being brutalized.

    Incensed by her failure to submit and obey, the Praetorian Guards mounted their chariots and gave chase. In their blood-lust driven haste to subdue this recalcitrant slave, one of the guardsmen ran his chariot into the earthworks bouncing his forehead off the front rail of the chariot. This was clearly caused by a spell or incantation uttered by this evil slave girl. Once the Praetorian Guards had her ox cart cornered, they proceeded to stab her fifteen times with a short sword. Of cours they had to do this or she could have bewitched them or cast the evil eye upon them.

    Miriam’s body was dragged behind guardsmen chariots and thoroughly desecrated as an example to any other recalcitrant slaves that might dare let their shadow fall upon the Praetorian Guard. Her next of kin were even denied the right to claim the poor Nubian girl’s defiled body. They then took Miriam’s daughter to the Roman midwives to be held until the next slave auction, where she would be sold to the highest bidder. Upon hearing of this act of bravery by the Praetorian Guard, the Roman Senate gave a long standing ovation and decorated the guardsmen for their valor and service. Once again the Republic is safe. All hail Caesar!

  3. Are the feds also holding the murdered woman’s child? Some commenatry I’ve read says that the child is being kept by federal agents and hasn’t been released to the grandmother or any other family members.

  4. That’s really the best most rational option. Get as far away from these vermin as you can.

    Jesus Hated Bald Pussy__By Hunter S. Thompson__From “Kingdom Of Fear “__2003

    Let’s face it, the yo-yo president of the U.S.A. knows nothing. He is a dunce. He does what he is told to do, says what he is told to say, poses the way he is told to pose. He is a fool.

    No. Nonsense. The president cannot be a Fool. Not at this moment in time, when the last living vestiges of the American Dream are on the line. This is not the time to have a bogus rich kid in charge of the White House.

    Which is, after all, our house. That is our headquarters, it is where the heart of America lives. So if the president lies and acts giddy about other people’s lives, if he wantonly and stupidly endorses mass murder by definition, a loud and meaningless animal with no functional intelligence and no balls.

    To say this goofy child president is looking more and more like Richard Nixon in the summer of 1974 would be a flagrant insult to Nixon.

    Whoops! Did I say that? Is it even vaguely possible that some New Age Republican whore-beast of a false president could actually make Richard Nixon look like a Liberal?

    The capacity of these vicious assholes we elected to be in charge of our lives for four years to commit terminal damage to our lives and our souls and our loved ones is far beyond Nixon’s. Shit! Nixon was the creator of many of the once-proud historical landmarks that these dumb bastards are savagely destroying now: the Clean Air Act of 1970; Campaign Finance Reform; the endangered species act; a Real-Politik dialogue with China; and on and on.

    The prevailing quality of life in America-by any accepted methods of measuring-was inarguably freer and more politically open under Nixon than it is today in this evil year of our Lord 2002.

    The Boss was a certified monster who deserved to be impeached and banished. He was a truthless creature of former FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover, a foul human monument to corruption and depravity on a scale that dwarfs any other public official in American history. But Nixon was at least smart enough to understand why so many honorable patriotic U.S. citizens despised him. He was a Liar. The truth was not in him.

    Nixon believed, as he said many times, that if the president of the United States does it, it can’t be illegal. But Nixon never understood the much higher and meaner truth of Bob Dylan’s warning that “To live outside the law you must be honest.”

    The difference between an outlaw and a war criminal is the difference between a pedophile and a Pederast: The pedophile is a person who thinks about sexual behavior with children, and the Pederast does these things. He lays hands on innocent children, he penetrates them and changes their lives forever.

    Being the object of a pedophile’s warped affections is a Routine feature of growing up in America, and being a victim of a Pederast’s crazed “love” is part of dying. Innocence is no longer an option. Once penetrated, the child becomes a Queer in his own mind, and that is not much different than murder.

    Richard Nixon crossed the line when he began murdering foreigners in the name of “family values”- and George Bush crossed it when he sneaked into office and began killing brown skinned children in the name of Jesus and the American people.

    When Muhammad Ali declined to be drafted and forced to kill “gooks” in Vietnam he said, “I ain’t got nothin’ against them Viet Cong. No Cong ever called me Nigger.”
    I agreed with him, according to my own personal ethics and values. He was right.

    If we all had a dash of Muhammad Ali’s eloquent courage, this country and the world would be a better place today because of it. Okay. That’s it for now. Read it and weep….See you tomorrow, folks. You haven’t heard the last of me. I am the one who speaks for the spirit of freedom and decency in you. Shit. Somebody has to do it.
    We have become a Nazi monster in the eyes of the whole world-a nation of bullies and bastards who would rather kill than live peacefully. We are not just Whores for power and oil, but killer whores with hate and fear in our hearts. We are human scum, and that is how history will judge us… No redeeming social value. Just whores. Get out of our way, or we’ll kill you.

    Well, shit on that dumbness. George W. Bush does not speak for me or my son or my mother or my friends or the people I respect in this world. We didn’t vote for these cheap, greedy little killers who speak for America today- and we will not vote for them again in 2002. Or 2004. Or ever.

    Who does vote for these dishonest shitheads? Who among us can be happy and proud of having all this innocent blood on our hands? Who are these swine? These flag-sucking half-wits who get fleeced and fooled by stupid little rich kids like George Bush? They are the same ones who wanted to have Muhammad Ali locked up for refusing to kill “gooks”. They speak for all that is cruel and stupid and vicious in the American character. They are racists and hate mongers among us-they are the Ku Klux Klan. I piss down the throats of these Nazis. And I am too old to worry about whether they like it or not. Fuck them.

      • Hunter hated bullies – and bullshit. It’s the theme that runs through all his work. Those who only know him for Fear and Loathing should read Hells Angels (which is better). His funeral oration for Richard Nixon is a masterpiece.

        • A core premise of HST philosophy is: “always avoid bullies and bullshit.” As Hunter put it: “The race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, but to those who see it coming and jump aside.”

          HST On Nixon

          “Jesus! How much more of this cheap-jack bullshit can we be expected to take from that stupid little gunsel? Who gives a fuck if he’s lonely and depressed down there in San Clemente? If there were any such thing as true justice in this world, his rancid carcass would be somewhere down around Easter Island right now, in the belly of a hammerhead shark.”

          “Nixon will be remembered as a classic case of a smart man shitting in his own nest. But he also shit in our nests, and that was the crime that history will burn on his memory like a brand. By disgracing and degrading the Presidency of the United States, by fleeing the White House like a diseased cur, Richard Nixon broke the heart of the American Dream.”

          “It is Nixon himself who represents that dark, venal and incurably violent side of the American character that almost every country in the world has learned to fear and despise. He is the monstrous Mr. Hyde personified . He speaks for the Werewolf in us; the bully, the predatory shyster who turns into something unspeakable, full of claws and bleeding string-warts on nights when the moon comes too close.”

          “Richard Nixon has never been one of my favorite people anyway. For years I’ve regarded his existence as a monument to all the rancid genes and broken chromosomes that corrupt the possibilities of the American Dream; he was a foul caricature of himself, a man with no soul, no inner convictions, with the integrity of a hyena and the style of a poison toad. The Nixon I remembered was absolutely humorless; I couldn’t imagine him laughing at anything except maybe a paraplegic who wanted to vote Democratic but couldn’t quite reach the lever on the voting machine.”

          “If the right people had been in charge of Nixon’s funeral, his casket would have been launched into one of those open-sewage canals that empty into the ocean just south of Los Angeles.

          Nixon was a swine of a man and a jabbering dupe of a president. Nixon was so crooked that he needed servants to help him screw his pants on every morning. Even his funeral was illegal. He was queer in the deepest way. His body should have been burned in a trash bin.”

    Yeah, that Maslow’s pyramid has always bothered me.

    The, ‘real one’ should be called Rothbard’s triangle, it’s just like Maslow’s, only at the bottom, is Liberty. For without liberty, everyone is a slave… or an Iraqi?

    • @DS – We have been operating under the refined and updated lessons learned using the Felluja model. Including giving those with experience and training a badge. What do you think all those Pentagon contracted think tanks do all day long, just watch porn?

    • Soon enough, the psychopaths in Congress who gave the skinheads a standing ovation for mudering an unarmed woman will begin to authorize summary executions of people chosen at random for their own entertainment. Hell, we’re almost there now.

  6. Here’s another good take on that car chase:

    “… never, never have I heard of southern California police shooting at the end of a car chase if the suspect wasn’t firing at them.

    Unfortunately, Carey wasn’t being pursued in Southern California, […]

    The death of Miriam Carey is a terrible tragedy. In some way that most of us can’t see, she recognized government as a threat more intensely than most of us. Her trip to Washington D.C. proved what she believed, that unarmed and travelling with nothing but a baby, government could perceive her as a major threat that had to be eliminated.

    After this tragedy occurred, inside Congress, members of Congress stood to thank their private police force that “protected” them from an unarmed woman with a baby.

    I ask you, who really is nuts here?”

  7. Used to be only little kids were afraid of monsters under the bed. Since 9-11 the mind masters have successfully turned a once proud nation into a mob of hysterical brain dead bobble-head zombie dolls. Just use the pixy dust magic word “terrorist” and they will shelter-in-place and beg for more police to abuse them.

    The cops are even worse. They think they are living some sort of a Jack Bower saving America script, and proud of it. The new badged hero’s can crash their cars and shoot unarmed 30 year old women to death, no matter what collateral damage may be in the back seat. Then the Congressional chicken-hawk blowhards (who had to return from from hiding under their desks with the doors locked and drapes drawn shut) will give you some sickening idiocracy on display speeches for your bravery.

    The mind masters have won.

  8. After reading the ridiculous article at the NYDN about the incident, my default assumption fell into place:

    If it’s in a mainstream infotainment media source, it’s a fuckin lie.

    The official story makes no sense at all. None. Therefore, the official story is nonsense. Being nonsense, it can be assumed to be a very poorly constructed pile of reeking bullshit hurriedly assembled for release.

    All the talk about terrorism and the sacrifices of our brave heroes just serves to reinforce my assumption. So, what I assume to be closer to the real story is pretty close to what you wrote, eric:

    some asshole functionary had a phalanx of overhyped bodyguards shoving everyone out of the way, and one poor woman panicked. The goons then responded by crashing some of their cars into barriers and other cop cars before cornering and murdering the woman.

    Every single capitol cop involved deserves to hang for this murder.

    • Alex Jones says DC cops were running checkpoint drills today. The woman came upon one of there checkpoints and decided to do a u-turn to avoid it. Either she hit a cop right there, or after they started chasing her down she ran into them.

      Either way, they fucking instigated this shit. She wasn’t necessarily all that stable to begin with. She runs into a checkpoint unexpectedly and panics. As usual the heroes chose to engage with her, being they are “escalators” as Larken Rose explained.

      They of course act all innocent, and pretend she was seeking them out and just started driving erratically and unlawfully for no reason. Now a thirty something licensed hygienist is dead, and everyone is patting them on the back for their heroism.

      At what point, then, should one resist? When one’s belt is taken away? When one is ordered to face into a corner? When they cross into the threshold of one’s home? An arrest consists of a series of incidental irrelevancies, of a multitude of things that do not matter, and there seems no point in arguing about one of them individually…and yet all these incidental irrelevancies taken together implacably constitute the arrest.

      Arrest! Need it be said that it is a breaking point in your life, a bolt of lightning which has scored a direct hit on you? That it is an unassimilable spiritual earthquake not every person can cope with, as a result of which people often slip into insanity?

      The Universe has as many different centers as there are living beings in it. Each of us is a center of the Universe, and that Universe is shattered when they hiss at you: “You are under arrest.”

      If you are arrested, can anything else remain unshattered by this cataclysm?

      Arrest is an instantaneous, shattering thrust, expulsion, somersault from one state into another.

      But the darkened mind is incapable of embracing these displacements in our universe, and both the most sophisticated and the veriest simpleton among us, drawing on all life’s experience, can gasp out only: “Me? What for?”

      And this is a question which, though repeated millions and
      millions of times before, has yet to receive an answer.

      Do not pursue what is illusionary -property and position: all that is gained at the expense of your nerves decade after decade, and is confiscated in one fell night. Live with a steady superiority over life -don’t be afraid of misfortune, and do not yearn for happiness; it is, after all, all the same: the bitter doesn’t last forever, and the sweet never fills the cup to overflowing. It is enough if you don’t freeze in the cold and if thirst and hunger don’t claw at your insides. If your back isn’t broken, if your feet can walk, if both arms can bend, if both eyes can see, if both ears hear, then whom should you envy? And why?

      Rub your eyes and purify your heart -and prize above all else in the world those who love you and who wish you well. Do not hurt them or scold them, and never part from any of them in anger; after all, you simply do not know: it may be your last act before your arrest, and that will be how you are imprinted on their memory.

      • Sorry, were running checkpoint drills yesterday.

        This isn’t some place that ordinarily has a checkpoint. Women are unpredictable, they run into something they know wasn’t there before. Must be for someone else. Ignore.

        They know they’re not doing anything wrong, so why not just turn around.

        Like you always say, Clovers always think they’re the exception, everyone knows they’re the good guys. Of course they had to kill her with 15 bullets so only their version of this narrative is told.
        – – – – – – –

        Their story? This person seems to have been extremely troubled, acting in an extraordinarily bizarre, even deranged matter, (not going into North Korean prostrated serf mode at the checkpoint) raising the possibility of mental illness.

        She’s the crazy one. She didn’t know that avoiding a checkpoint will get 20 cops cars chasing you.

    • Cop wrecked his own car:

      Like I commented earlier, in chases, cops hit things with their cars, but the blame is never their own. It is ‘look at what you made me do’. Of course we know where that comes from, the people who last century were ‘just doing their job’ and ‘enforcing the law’.

      Now it comes out that the barrier wasn’t at the white house but ‘near the white house’. We are likely looking at some confused cloveratic driving causing a minor brush with a barrier or something of that nature, followed by escalation by the security forces, followed by panic by the woman…. into a chase and then being gunned down. It’s most likely the usual spin on events where placing one’s arms over one’s face to deflect the blows of a cop is assaulting an officer.

      • Something like that barrier deployment is what should happen at all red lights, if they’re going to continue having them. If man insists on making laws, they should be real laws, not dependent on bureaucratic enforcement. Gravity doesn’t pester, plead with, or plunder you. It presides silently, everywhere at once, and is always consistent, fair, and quickly comprehensible.

      • “Now it comes out that the barrier wasn’t at the white house but ‘near the white house’.”

        Yep, the first reports I read said that she tried to “crash through the gates of the white house” . Of course anyone who has been to DC since W’s war on terrrrrr started knows that no mundane is allowed to drive past the white house any more.

        I doubt that she did anything other than to panic and try to get her baby away from the skinheads who were menacing her. Maybe she was naive enough to believe that she could come to DC and talk to the Kenyan in person. Maybe she was just visiting the capitol and assumed that it was OK to drive around and look at things. I doubt that we will ever know what she was actually doing.

        The tale of her driving somewhere neat the white house and some skinhead dragged a metal barricade out in front of her makes no fucking sense whatsoever. The claim that she rammed the barricade with her car and hit the skinhead, knocking him up onto the hood is an obvious lie given the appearance of the front of her car.

        The newly presented tale that she fell and hit her head and started believing that the Kenyan was spying on her sounds like bullshit as well. The bullshit machine is just getting warmed up. There will probably be plenty more bullshit to come.

      • Dear Brent,

        Interesting how other cops didn’t give their “brother officer” the “Carey Treatment.”

        Miriam Carey Treatment that is.

        What kind of car do you suppose a real terrorist is going to use in the future to get past barriers without being first riddled with bullets?

        You guessed it.
