Grigg,
when you say "December 4" do you mean 2012 ? Because it seems hard to believe Huff could obtain the dashcam video and deposition, make two films and post them, all on the day he was detained (Dec 4 2011).

Ferret,
police department websites could end in ".gov" too.

Anon 8:43,
if I remember, I'll try to email National Motorists Association. It's probably there already.

Saw numerous ads on Craigslist for this, it about made me sick, the caste system in amerika is becoming more clarified:

"The Homes for Heroes foundation is a public charity exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Its mission is to provide or coordinate financial assistance and housing resources to our Nation's Heroes such as Military personnel, Police/Peace Officers, Firefighters, First Responders, Teachers and Healthcare Professionals."

Comrades someone should tell president Hussein the anointed one about this in the hopes that he will use his smoting staff or magic scepter to banish all unfairness in the world. Ohh...whoops...that great champion of the little guy is navigating the 54 christmas tree maze on his way to a 4$ million dollar vacation to the scene of his terrible oppression at the hands of those whitey cracka grandparents and 18,000$ a year private school.

We need to bring back the Geneva Bible.

The King James Bible was commissioned by guess who: King James.
I love the King James Bible but it waters down the truth about
obeisance to state power.

It was the Geneva Bible that prompted the English revolution.
Time to bring it back and set "evangelical" Christians back on the right track.

another great piece, thx william

i'm a christian too, and i'll back up the first commenter

the degraded, babylon-serving "christianity" practiced by modern fakes and their false "pastors" overwhelmingly supports the "law and order" and "zero tolerance" agendas of the vast, iniquitous, avaricious criminal "justice" industry in the u.s., which was already WAY out of control thirty years ago, and by now is hopeless

christian "pastors" twist the bible around, counseling their congregants that God demands obedience to "established authroties and governments" even when such entities are clearly wicked and anti-christian

God does NOT require such submission... quite the opposite

the takeover of amerika by feminism, and the practical matriarchy under which we live, is the larger satanic context in which the vast LE industry embeds and expands

in that vein, i note the advertisement accompanying this article is for an institution called "Nova Southeastern College" offering an "M.S. in Criminal Justice"

:O)

kinda proves the point dont it?

featured in the ad is an empowered women clutching a huge black law book -- she is your future DA or Judge, she is Legion, and she and her many friends are gonna have to find SOMEBODY to arrest, prosecute, and cage in order to keep their jobs... plenty Michael ("fourth") Reicherts to help her, too

another 20 years of this, there wont be any u.s. males left that arent either LE or prisoners

nice going folks, really, well done

2012-12-07T13:57:32.267-07:00

JK:

The problem is government at all levels which operates outside the limits of the law and the sheep and clovers that support them.

Precisely. The point I was making is that many of the "sheep and clovers" who most strongly and vocally support the agents of said out-of-control government (i.e., the police and the armed forces) just happen to call themselves --proudly, I might add-- "evangelical Christians."

If they feel not only no shame, but pride in associating themselves, as such, with the unfolding terror that is engulfing us, then why should I or anyone else feel shame or regret at pointing out this association?

2012-12-06T16:32:12.948-07:00

"Why would Inalienablewrights make an unjustified and ridiculous statement about Christians supporting these criminal police?"

He made the statement because he is rediculous. Liberranter makes a good case about evangelical meetings but that is still not the point. Religious context has nothing to do with the matter at hand. It is not Christians or non Christians that are the problem. The problem is government at all levels which operates outside the limits of the law and the sheep and clovers that support them. To turn that into an indictment of any religeous belief system is a sure sign of someone with a stunted intellect and a burr up their ass.

We need a map of all the well traveled roads in the US to show travelers where these thugs patrol. Keep the map updated with travelers' experiences (town, road, date, time, officer) and let it go viral over the internet to warn drivers. I refuse to fly so I must drive. Let's make it hard for these bums. WE THE PEOPLE PAID FOR THE ROADS, AND IT IS TIME TO STOP THE ROAD BANDITS!

Next time go after the real criminals, like Reichert.

2012-12-05T15:17:03.701-07:00

Mr. Huff is heroic for standing up to these thugs.

Here's my question:

In Huff's first video (Breakfast in Collinsville) he asks the dirtbag: "Do I look like a drug dealer?" Dirtbag responds with something like: "If I had a crystal ball and could tell who was a user or dealer then we wouldn't have a drug problem in this country."

Now, in court Dirtbag admitted he carries WEED on his person when he's in uniform. He rubs weed on unfortunate people's cars then pulls them over. I have no doubt he rubs his weed (or whatever else he carries) on cash when he 'finds' it in cars as well, but that's beside the point for now.

So if anyone is driving thru town with 'just some personal use marijuana', it is Dirtball.

So now there's no one in Collinsville who needs a crystal ball to know who's running weed thru town in his piggypatrol vehicle. I wonder what % of the drugs Dirtbag seems so adept at confiscating actually end up in the evidence locker and not in his own pocket....

Perhaps he's the town dealer as well.

2012-12-05T12:59:33.202-07:00

Lawyer Kiss needs to be corrected. It is about "law enforcement". Law enforcement is all about making money. If he had said "keeping the peace" instead of "law enforcement" he would have been correct.

A year or two ago, the Massac County Illinois was facing layoffs of government employees due to the casino not giving over as much tax money. The sheriff floated a plan to rehire the employees and to put a couple of the deputies on the job writing tickets to out of state drivers on I-24. He was very open that the deputies would only be targeting out of state drivers.

When ever possible, stay out of Illinois.

"Unjustified?" "Ridiculous?" Either you've never spent a Sunday morning sitting through a typical "evangelical" "Christian" sermon, or you're one of the regular congregants of such a body who can't stand to look at what he sees in the proverbial mirror but values too highly the opinions of his fellow congregants to voice a dissenting viewpoint. I'm betting it's the latter.

I am a Christian and I find your lack of tolerance to be offensive and disgusting. You are like these "cops" in your attempt to fabricate guilt. What I wonder is your motive?

A very revealing comment. Why, if you don't subscribe to what Officer Oinky and his fellow blue-clad thief-thugs are doing on the increasingly dangerous (to us Mere Mundanes) national highways, would you wax in self-righteous indignation over a comment that points out a self-evident truth? (In fact, wouldn't one of those very rare self-professed "Christians" who disagrees with the state-worshiping majority view have posted something to the effect of "Yes, sadly, my misguided fellow Christians mostly do support the Police State as an extension of Jesus's Reign on Earth. But let me make clear that not all of us believe this way and are working to sway the majority in the direction of liberty, the belief in the Rule of God as the only rule worthy of our loyalty, and the message of the Gospels.")

Methinks the "Christian" doth protest too much.

2012-12-05T06:08:01.511-07:00

People like Mr. Huff who are willing to stand up to the
cops by spending the money, the time and the aggravation
are the true heroes of our society and the persons we
should "thank for our freedom."

"Mr. Huff, thank you for my freedom."

His proactive stand will make Collinsville a safer place to live.

@InalienableWrights - I am a Christian and am against the drug war.
Mr. Grigg is a Christian and is against the drug war.
Colorado has a lot of Christians and they are against the drug war.
Washington has a lot of Christians and they are against the drug war.
All the Christians I know are against the drug war.
Saint Paul was against the drug war.
Jesus was against the drug war.
God is against the drug war.
I could give you scripture, but I'm too busy to bother, but here is
a quote from Shakespeare that I think applies to your comment:

2012-12-04T22:42:24.274-07:00

I find the fact that this town is clamoring to get this video pulled to be too funny by half! While they weren't getting negative attention it was business as usual, with a wink and a nod, but now with the uncomfortable attention focused on the criminality they're starting to squirm. Certainly not out of any deep moral sense. Shame on them for that. Maybe the business owners are squealing.

2012-12-04T22:38:12.102-07:00

"On the other hand, every single atheist I know opposes it..." Well, Captain, history shows that atheists have no problem killing anyone who gets in their way. Millions even. So while the "war on some drugs" may be supported by many knuckleheads, regardless of faith or lack thereof, at least your sensible minded compatriots know better. I also know plenty of religionists who despise TWOSD and know full well it's an evil scam. Don't fall prey to that all too easy temptation of painting with so broad a brush.

2012-12-04T21:37:30.842-07:00

You might not like hearing it but nearly every Christian I know supports the War on Drugs, often blindly. Same with every Muslim I know. On the other hand, every single atheist I know opposes it.

Of course, the plural of anecdote is not data. I'm not trying to paint with a broad brush. But many (too many) of your coreligionists are in the order-at-all-costs crowd. So don't get upset when this is pointed out.

2012-12-04T17:25:04.175-07:00

Regarding the takedown order for Huff's sequel, it really was the city's only option. After all, even if there weren't the police union and the blue wall of silence to deal with, they wouldn't dare fire one of their top earners.

Think about incidents like this the next time you see the URL to a police department's web site that ends in a .ORG. That designation was intended for use by non-profit organizations and as such, police departments should be using .COM if nothing else.

Show me a single gun-toting, badge-carrying agency that is not worried about revenue as job number one.

Thank you for providing this information. I have shared with my friends.

It would be a wonderful victory for justice to see ALL the ill-gotten gains returned to their rightful owners. Reading that "roughly half of Collinsville PD's operating budget comes from seizures of cash and property through civil asset forfeiture". this would likely be an enormous amount of theft from the public.
Not to even mention the pay, disability and retirement these cretins receive.

Like I said, disgusting.
