It is hard to imagine that this surreal story does not originate in a nation run by a violent warlord (or maybe it does), but it actually comes from Florida, where Lucas Jewell, a resident of Gainesville noticed local members of the Alachua County Sheriff’s Department were riding through town in a tank-like armored vehicle that appears to be a Lanco BearCat, an armored personnel carrier intended for military use.
As Mr. Jewell believes that this is a gross abuse of taxpayers’ dollars and is opposed to the militarization of police, he found this display of military hardware on public roads offensive and showed the individuals in riding in the tank his middle finger and proceeded to continue on his journey.
The deputies from the Alachua County Sheriff’s Department had other plans; they followed Mr. Jewell closely for several blocks and then decided it to pull him over in an attempt to punish and intimidate him.
What appears to be paramilitary group of individuals exited the armored vehicle and immediately proceeded to assault Mr. Jewell, accuse him that he was receiving oral sex from his girlfriend and his middle finger gesture constituted an “improper hand signal” in violation of Florida traffic law.
The suggestion that a middle finger raised in the air was intended to be a traffic hand gesture is ludicrous, but it did not stop these cops from attempting to bully Jewell into submission.
This unidentified member of ACSD did not want to be photographed because “there are weapons involved.”
The video below was provided to TruthVoice by Mr. Jewell and it illustrates the level of militarization that local police forces are reaching, including patrolling U.S. streets and using military vehicles to enforce minor traffic violations or punish peaceful citizens for protected speech. (Full disclosure: the video was edited to remove some personal identifiable information about the victims).
As these police officers were property informed, an obscene gesture directed towards them is considered protected speech and has been cemented by a number of federal court cases over the years.
This did not deter the cops from pursuing various accusations against Mr. Jewell and his girlfriend, none of which were sound or reasonable.
Fortunately, a crowd started to gather and take pictures which prompted Mr. Jewell to start chanting, “Tell me what a police state looks like? This is what a police state looks like!”
After this the cops gave him a warning for an “improper hand signal” and let him go.
Regardless how one feels about making an obscene gesture towards police officers, the bottom line is that such a gesture is a protected constitutional right and nobody should be harassed for it, especially by heavily armed thuggish individuals riding around in what appears to be a tank through downtown Gainesville, Florida.
Watch video below:
“The suggestion that a middle finger raised in the air was intended to be a traffic hand gesture is ludicrous, but it did not stop these cops from attempting to bully Jewell into submission.”
They should feel flattered.
It’s merely a patriot’s salute to the so-called ‘government’.
How dare that little citizen to question the validity of pigs on an armored vehicle going out for donuts! Anyone that thinks for minute that those armored cars are for the protection of the citizens is a fool. It is to protect the pigs from the citizens period!
“Your papers please, goyum”. How much more obvious does it have to become? There’s going to be a lot of lead flying once they step over the point of no return. Now, with the BLM in Oregon and Texas, militias are preparing to resist these land grabs and, I suspect the BLM has the “heavy artillery” on standby. This could get very ugly real fast.
Looks like you’re not coming here soon enough, Millard.
Bummer. 🙁
I know brother, it’s about 9 hours just to get to Glendive, MT and I wouldn’t even be half way there. Oh, would I like to stand next to my brothers on the front lines. I don’t fear death at this point in my life, it’s the tyranny, imprisonment, and murder of my people that’s my concern and I refuse to sit back and watch it happen without a fight! Now that I think about it, I’ll most likely take I-90 west. I’m do plan on discussing the best route with Mark S.
Hey, I got my fishing license.
Just goin’ on little fishing trip, don’cha know. 😉
Catch some for us. 😉
I haven’t purchased mine yet and the river is still in flood stage which makes fishing difficult. Dammit, #1, I can’t wait to get out there. You’ll have to show me your “secret” fishing hole! 😆
Hey #1 Henry, and Ryan, catch a bunch of them. We like pictures. 😎
Yes to all three.
Hoping for a trophy ‘fish’. 😯 😉
The saddest part is that this is the Sheriffs that are harassing innocent people. Screw em. You must scrape and bow to our masters. Shoot em in the ass and keep on trucking.
Those baldy heads are easy targets.
Armor dont do shit to cover that
I’m not sure what other ‘sign’ is necessary to convince people that america is a police state nearly under martial law.
The trick is to disarm and control, or cause some sort of internal conflict/race violence/terrorism/war, then martial law. Whatever the trick, the ‘jews’ are behind the whole charade (Looks like they’ve tricked the sunnis and shites into self annihilation).
I sure hope people know which root to strike so as to cleanse the human consciousness of this perverted control structure and ideology.
The alternative is too hideous to contemplate.

Cannabalism in Stalins Russia and Maos China
http://www.paulbogdanor.com/left/cannibalism.pdf
“Hungry peasants tried to stay alive by eating grass, straw, and their draft animals. Then cam the dogs and cats, and finally in some instances, even the children of the village. Some peasants, driven by hunger, fell into temporary insanity and began to feed on the dead bodies of their own and their neighbor’s children. This cannibalism reached a point where the Soviet government–instead of stopping the mad exportation of grain– began to print posters with the following warning: “To eat your own children is a barbarian act.””
They’ve done it before and they’re preparing to do it again. Why think “This time it’ll be different.”? How? A tiger can’t change it’s stripes. We’ve been warned and now it looks like we’ll pay a heavy price for our lack of attentiveness and action.
