Secrets of the Fed – by Mikael Thalen
A California police officer reportedly from the same department as the cop who fatally shot a man’s dog this week, defended the officer’s actions by blaming the dog’s death on its owner in a strange Facebook post Wednesday.
Last Sunday, 52-year-old Leon Rosby was arrested while trying to film an armed robbery SWAT barricade in Hawthorne, California, in what he says was an attempt to keep the police accountable.
“They had asked me why am I there and I said I was filming them so that no one’s civil rights were being violated,” said Rosby to NBC4.
Officers claimed Rosby was disturbing the active crime scene by filming and playing music too loud from his vehicle which was parked half a block away on a side street.
A bystander recording cell phone video captured police ordering Rosby to put his dog in his car. Rosby placed his Rottweiler in the backseat and immediately approached police while putting his hands behind his back, following police orders.
As police began handcuffing Rosby, his dog Max jumped out of the car’s window and approached police. One officer then fired four shots at Max as he jumped towards them, killing the animal on the spot.
While the department argues that the officer had no choice, others say the officers had no right to detain or arrest Rosby in the first place, given the first amendment right to film the police, making the officer responsible for the death.
Rosby spent a night in jail on suspicion of obstruction and was released Monday morning. Rosby, who filed a lawsuit against the department last July after police beat him according to Rosby’s lawyer, says the police have been after him ever since.
The Hawthorne Police Department has since pulled three police officers from street duty after they began receiving death threats according to police.
Following a massive backlash from citizens, one Hawthorne officer took it upon himself to inform the department’s critics of his feelings toward the incident in a strange, nearly incoherent, Facebook rant.
“One of the best departments in the state one on looker with no business being there, if he wouldn’t have stopped but with his oen agenda wanting to record a mistake by the HPD and there was none cost him his dog,” said Officer Vasquez.
“The few of you out there that don’t trust your police move.”
Vasquez went on to call for Rosby’s prosecution, claiming Rosby should be charged for the death of his own dog.
“Want to blame someone blame the dog owner for not minding his own business and putting himself and the officers in harms way, he should be prosecuted to the fullest letter of the law including the death of his pet,” said Vasquez.
Officer Vasquez has since disabled his Facebook account.

“The Hawthorne Police Department has since pulled three police officers from street duty after they began receiving death threats according to police.”
Actions like this one prove that most police should be treated like dogs.
Pulling the damn cops off from street duty isn`t even close enough. Them cops really should be locked up in prison with the general population. Also, threats are just threats, threats don`t mean sh*t unless they are carried out and acted upon. Cops like to shoot peoples pets and dogs?, well then good, lets start shooting their worthless POS police dogs then and any one that gets in the way. F them POS cops, every one of them. BY THE WAY, what do ya call red, white and blue? – a white boy cop bleeding out. Just a cop joke there for the 4th of july.
How about a bounty on them cops. those cops need to be shot just like they shot that dog. Untill people start retaliating really hard against the cops, cops will never change. We the People have got to start practicing vigilantee/street justice against the police and the law makers and law enforcement officers. They get away with too damned much. They ruin peoples lives………….. Yep, I know how that dogs owner feels like. Them cops got to pay for what they do damn it………… Cops are NOT your freind, they never have been and they never will be your freind !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don’t insult dogs, please.
Treat PIGS like PIGS.
Refusal to ever accept the blame, no matter what the circumstances, is a key characteristic of psychopaths. ‘Nuff said.
Vasquez is a cowardly punk trying to justify his wrongful actions. Coward punk. Taking down his facebook, what’s with that punk? Vasquez ain’t fit to clean animal cages let alone be a cop. This piece of human excrement does not even have a good command of the English language, take a look at what and how he wrote his spew on the facebook page. If this terd has a wife/girlfriend, she must not be much of a woman.
I totally agree with you.
Hey ALL<if you hit the link ,go to comments and sign the petition first then read the shared "piglove" If this prik did this to my dog HE WOULD BE FKN DEAD at the very first chance I got<its no different than murdering a loved family member please sign the petition ,our #s alone should scare these cowards back into their hidey holes.

COWARD PIECE OF SHIT COP… IF HE HAD HALF A NUT-SACK HE WOULDVE LET GO OF THE HANDCUFFED MAN (WHO HAD NO REASON TO BE HANDCUFFED IN THE FIRST PLACE), AND LET HIM GO TO HIS DOG TO PREVENT THE DOG FROM SCARING THIS SISSY COP.

IF IT WAS AN ARMED ROBBERY, WHY WAS THERE NO POLICE LINE? NO TAPE? NO GATES? NO OTHER OFFICERS THERE? SEEMS LIKE MR.ROSBY WAS FILMING A DRILL OR PSY OP OF SOME SORT. WRONGFULL ARREST ON THOSE 3 COPS, AND MURDER BY VASQUEZ. MURDER IS MURDER REGARDLESS IF 2 LEGS OR 4! NON LETHAL FORCE WOULD HAVE SUFFICED IF HE GRABBED MACE INSTEAD! THIS WAS 100% WRONG. POLICE ARE TO PROTECT AND SERVE, THE PUBLIC OWNS THE POLICE. WE PAY THEIR SALARY. THEY ARE PUBLIC SERVANTS.
GO MAKE US SOME FUCKIN SAMMICHES.

pepper spray is not as fun as getting to be a hero in front of all your other asshole cop friends. they can't wait to be able to use their deadly weapons. some day when their given hand grenades they will just drive along side you and toss one in your car for some terrible crime like a rolling stop.today these assholes are being equipped with military weapons and other gear. these assholes are very dangerous and should be avoided at all costs.

What rocks do these unconscious demonic pigs crawl out from under? Must be a big one, because there are a lot of them creeping around law enforcement these days. They must all play violent video games, wasted on booze when they aren't busy terrorizing innocent civilians. What a shameful lives they lead.

This is the reason why you must video cops at all times, without this video, imagine what that cop would have said that happened….he would have lied even under oath if he had to and we would never have known the truth. Low life son of a bitch….

Police dogs! Kick one, you've assaulted a police.
officer! Kill one, you've killed a police officer!
How come the cops don't get cwap if they killed.
my non aggressive dog? What I observed, the dog.
was NOT vicious and could have released Rosby long.
enough to control his dog, Rosby was not a threat and.
followed police orders.

Cops will Tazer an 11 year old naked girl walking on the highway but then forget they have a tazer when it comes to a dog… Both of these situations are so far beyond the scope of belief it isn't funny. This pile of shit cop needs to be fired and charged to the fullest extent of (the existing law left in this country) and the department need to be sued into the ground… The man was breaking NO LAWS for him the be handcuffed in the first place… Welcome to the police-state.

How the hell was it his fault? the cops had to walk about half a block BACK to the dog owner, so how was he putting the cops in harms way?
Jógrímr Odinsson
It was his fault that his dog was assaulted for not properly securing his dog. I have an Akita. He's killed a couple other dogs, and will eat a cops ass alive without doubt. In that situation, I'd have made damn sure my windows were rolled up before putting my dog in the vehicle. IF the dog had broken out the window to get at the officers that would have been a justified assault/stop, but not shoot. Non lethal means. Both parties in this are at fault, and from watching the video, the whole situation was stupid, retarded, and avoidabl

Cops fault…clearly.

This is also a plan by the elites, to divide and separate the American police force from civilians. They want the divide between civilian and police officer to be as wide as possible. Because they know when called to duty, if police are not seeing themselves as a target, or separate from the public, they will not be as heavy handed, or use deadly force when the time is needed in America. They are being trained to hate us, and we're being trained to hate them. Its just like how they groom us all to hate each other because of stupid things like skin color and culture. So when they pull the rug out from under us, we'll all fight each other instead of banding together to survive.
Jesse J. Heichert
This filled my whole body with rage. The stupid fucking pride these pigs have that illusions them into believing in the first place what they are doing is for the better good is where the evil comes from to do such a thing to a dog that was hardly even attacking but just showing its confusion. Like you really need a gun to calm down a dog. So fucking sick. I hope the table's turn very soon.
well now, any copper who who chooses to shoot my unarmed weenier had best remember, do me too or there will be a pay back, some time in his or her life time. they took the job, just as I took the job as a Marine in Viet Nam, but we did’nt kill unarmed dogs or people for no reason, in fact by april,may of 1970 we were required to put RED BLOCKS IN PLACE OF OUR MAGIZINES !!! Maybe it is time to give them RED BLOCKS made by prisioners or BOX CUTTERS and NAIL CLIPPERS,w/free supply from TsA. They have truly become sick f##kx
Funny, this is the same line the MSM here in LA LA land are shouting…They say they have another video that shows this fact, but wont show it to us…yeah right.
People that work in resturants love dogs….If in Hawthrone, Id suggest brown bagging it from now on…Unless you like secret sauce!!!!
“The few of you out there that don’t trust your police move.”
The worst kind of human trash would say that, let alone a POS wearing a badge & gun. It’s rather obvious that this attitude nurtured & prevalent in the entire HPD. Any professionally managed PD would have fired this POS long ago. Further investigation will most likely reveal this is set policy all the way into City Council Chambers. The City of Hawthorne doesn’t have a Police Force; they have a bunch of State sanctioned Gang-bangers & Pirates raping their town under Color of Authority. The “Who & What”, doing “Nothing & Ignoring” is a blatant sign of what lawlessness is coming to our own towns. Public reaction will most likely be hideous.
That is right BentSpear. They want a police state then they should live in their own police state. All of them damnedable cops can go live in their nice and cozy little minded police state. How about some state island somewhere they can police themselves. We do not need the police if we are all honest and trustworthy – something that the police and the Govt. is not.
MOVE??? How about this, @sshole. Once the SHTF, make sure you stay in uniform. You’ll be sure to get EXACTLY what you did to that poor dog.
I’d LOVE to be able to videotape THAT one, you sorry piece of WORTHLESS sh#t!!!
“No business being there!” – what is he talking about? The whole country has business being there; they are public servants carrying out a public duty and in a public place. How can any member of the public be in the wrong watching the event from a safe distance.
Fear is all this is about. The comments are full of hate and it all sprung from fear. I feel bad for the dog not the owner or the cops.
Hey nottoobitter. I had a high buck very well trained rot and somebody killed him. You want to talk hate ok then because if I fing out who did it I am going to bash his F1`n head in with a louisville slugger and I am going to make sure that I torture the bastard that did this to my buddy. What the heck do you mean when you say that about the dogs owner. I say it is them GOD DAM F`n cops fault, not the owner or the dogs fault. So help me, I hope that that dogs owner retaliates and sues the F out of tham damned cops. Give me half a chanch and I would shoot them POS cops that did this to this guys dog. I know what it is like when a pig shoots your dog. F them cop LEO`s. And yes I am pissed about what they did. Yea, go yuck it up nottoobitter
The dog was a “domestic terrorist” or is it an “enemy combatant”?
Must had an IED attached to it’s tail!
The action was taken to KEEP you SAFE!
When I was a child the term “Police State” was drilled into our heads at school as communist and actions dictators took. We were told our Constitution kept us safe from actions such as this. It’s way past time we demanded those constitutional rights be up held by ‘public servants.” If they refuse Then 1776 is the answer they must not have learned in school…This was their solution and it works very,VERY well….. see it here http://youtu.be/hFWZ925zK0A
