The only thing to fear....is the police themselves.

Canadian police, in particular BC police have come under fire recently for everything from killing immigrants at the airport, driving DUI and killing other motorists, beating up newspaper delivery men while drunk, and recently beating up kids on the street in plain view of everyone. they have a reputation for corruption, protecting themselves, covering their own asses and a complete lack of respect for the law. it's little wonder none of us feel safe whether it's the RCMP or the municipal officers, you really want to hope that someone has a camera handy when ever you come into contact with one of these animals.

obviously the recruiting is the major problem. if you are attracting morons, who are nothing but power monkeys who get off on authority and carrying a gun, then this is exactly what you are going to see. it's only now with the advent of cell phone cameras, youtube and the web that these idiots are being held accountable. i blogged about corporal monty benjamin, perhaps the RCMP's leading agent of death, but it seems the problem is rampant and systematic.

here's the latest:

Corporal Benjamin Monty Robinson - 2 dead civilians and still no arrest....

Let me introduce you to the RCMP's finest, Corporal Monty Benjamin. This is the piece of shit, and i use the term accurately, who lead the 4 RCMP officers into the murderous rampage that ended in the death of Robert Dziekanski, the polish immigrant who was tasered to death October 14th, 2007 at the Vancouver Airport.

Turns out Corporal Monty Benjamin isn't just happy killing one innocent civilian, he's gone out and bettered it. This time he struck and killed a young motorcyclist while driving drunk. He then fled the scene of the accident, and claimed that he was drinking after the accident. (Even though the police caught him minutes later). I also understand the low life had his own kids in the car at the time of the accident.

Fast forward to today, and in disgust and disbelief I watch along with the community as this bottom feeder is charged only with obstruction of justice. (Full report on CTV) This is what policing has become - 2 innocent civilians dead at this guys hands, and not a hint of justice served. The media really hasn't even been clear making a deal out of the fact that this is the same guy that was a part of the taser death 4, infact this is the senior officer.

We all knew that the police and justice system do little to nothing to protect us in Vancouver, now we know they are in some cases actually the people we should fear most...

Great report from the National Post
