1. Entertainment as Indoctrination David Zokaites December 6, 2016

2. Watched a crime show on TV
Hardly matters which show (Major Crimes – White Lies)
Quite alarmed with underlying message
Maintain the status quo at all costs
Civil rights scarcely exist
Excessive police power, they're heroes
Bad for democracy, great for dictatorship

3. Scene A – never speak out
Lawyer eloquently complained to police about violations of civil rights
Promptly arrested
Squelch public protest
Silence the masses

4. Scene B – solitary confinement
Casual mention of solitary confinement as though it was normal
Solitary confinement is torture per international treaty
All too common in the USA
Condemned by Amnesty International

5. Scene C – criminal search
Police wanted to search, steal apartment complex
No real suspicion – no warrant
Condemned the building
Sent a SWAT team to evict tenants
Display maximum force, terrify people

6. Scene D – police are heroes
Describe police officers as heroes
Police are merely people doing a job
Heroes, angels, devils only rarely
Teach excessive allegiance to civil authority
Reminiscent of the divine right of kings

7. Scene E – prisoner abuse
Needed cooperation (subservience) of a reluctant prisoner
Bang him around, terrify him
Assault as official strategy

8. Scene F – lying to a suspect
Suspects are not worthy of respect
Any form of control is a good form
If you lie to a suspect, who is next?
Lie to a suspect, lie to the public, lie to a judge

9. Scene G – lying to the public
Citizens are to be controlled, not respected

10. Scene H – shock belt Accused outfitted with a shock belt
Remote-control taser
Pre-trial punishment
Portrays accused as dangerous
Introduce the strategy and then it spreads
Makes prisoner abuse all too easy
No record of official assault and battery

11. Scene I – shoot to kill Police needed to disable active shooter
Shot him at least twice in the chest at close range
One bullet would have disabled
More is shoot to kill
There are non-lethal alternatives

12. Multiple scenes $1,000,000 of missing weapons
Must be the Neo-Nazis – guilty unless proven innocent
No evidence needed for detainment
Unpopular groups do not deserve rights
Who will be next to lose their rights?

13. Lessons imparted Not merely relaxing entertainment
Inoculate sheeple (sheep people) to losing rights
Propaganda for police power
Anything to defend status quo
Police are heroes
Civil rights do not exist

14. Lessons learned Sioux Falls PD does: Display excessive force
Arrest people exercising rights
Assault – fear of attack
Lie to people
Right to trial does not exist for at least peddlers ordinance and project TRIMM

15. Recommendation Stop watching this garbage Get some exercise
Play with your kids
Read a book
Get a hobby

16. Good evening Sioux Falls :-)
