This video was taken when we got MARV back from the thugs (police) in Greenfield, MA. Those men felt they had the right to break into Pete’s home (as well as mine; I live with Pete) and ransack our personal possessions. This video goes to show the direct disregard that law enforcement has for your rights, property and well-being.
For those who haven’t followed this story, the thugs searched our home without our consent or a warrant (at least to our knowledge as of now). The RV wasn’t at the jail where Pete and I were arrested, but parked several blocks away. They had no reason to even approach the RV and I feel they did so as a punishment, a way of adding charges, and just to be assholes.
Officer Todd M. Dodge (officer 120) stated to me that he’d “fucking kill me” after I asked, “what would you do if I broke into your home?” So Todd Dodge would kill a man who broke into his home yet he has no problem ordering others to do the same thing to others. If you disagree with that logic, let Todd know.

Please record or document your interactions with this man. He has control issues and should probably seek help. Stay tuned for a more detailed overview here at CopBlock.org. Thanks again to all of you. Without your support, our arrest/torture would be in vain.
Thanks to Antigone Darling for recording this on her Droid! Our cameras (with footage of our interactions with Todd Dodge and the folks at the Franklin Co. jail) are being held by the Greenfield PD. We’re told we’ll get them back at the conclusion of all our legal proceedings with them…
You guys deal with these situations so well. Police are so fucked up. Is it really necessary to do that to someone’s home? Because opening drawers and compartments in a normal, decent, manner is so, so difficult? Because it takes such skill and effort to NOT completely destroy things as you are doing your unjustified search? These officers behave like fucking animals. Fucking idiots who don’t know how to open and close drawers properly are not competent to perform the most menial of jobs; they certainly shouldn’t be given guns, badges and be in charge of enforcing laws. They lack any basic respect for their fellow human beings, yet demand the highest level of respect from us. It’s ridiculous.
> Fucking idiots who don’t know how to open and close drawers properly are not competent to perform the most menial of jobs
Oh, they know how. They open and close drawers at the station house and in their own homes competently.
It’s just that we normal citizens are the serfs and chattel – we don’t deserve the same care they’d exercise in touching their own property or that of their friends and social peers.
Damn. How did they know that vehicle had any connection to you?
If they did not have a warrant will you be standing up for your rights other than posting videos on the interweb that hardly anybody watches? Hurt them where it counts or anonymous will need to eventually fuck with these cops in very nasty ways.
Unfortunately, prosecution of a civil action for misconduct like this usually has to wait until the (successful) conclusion of the criminal case. That isn’t always the case, but most often, that is the sitch. However, discovery rules that pertain to criminal cases can be stronger than those that apply to civil cases, even though the facts are the same. Go get ‘em guys!
Greenfield MA is an ICLEI United Nations occupational zone. FULL NWO agenda going down there. The police in Greenfield are committing HIGH TREASON enforcing international laws there, shitting on our Constitution EVERYDAY! These cops need to be tried and hung after a fair trial. Their guilt is self evident, but fair trials are good. http://www.freedomadvocates.org/articles/illegitimate_government/iclei_primer%3a_your_town_and_freedom_threatened_20090804364/
I went to Bill’s link about ICLEI. I agree with him. In addition to Greenfield, MA, three cities in my state, four cities is the nearest neighboring state and Keene, NH (home of Free Keene organization) are all members of ICLEI. We should all link to Freedom Advocates and send form letters, and later Notices of Treason, to our nearest respective cities that are ICLEI members!
After many years of personal abuse of power by law enforcement I have come to the conclusion that there is no viable solution, no justice, no end in sight. yeah, yeah, yeah… I’ve heard all four verses of, “standing up for your rights” and “send form letter to…”, and “vote against or for” and “speak out”… blah, blah, blah… unfortunately I do not have the time, energy or financial ability to take this kind of a stand… All that my efforts have gotten me is more harASSment from law enforcement. I appreciate the efforts of Cop Block.org but when I read the stories, watch the videos of DAILY abuse of power in law enforcement across our nation all I can do is sadly shake my head and realize… it is what it is…
Sorry you have this helpless feeling Rachel. But for reasons you explained in your comment is exactly why CopBlock.org was created. Hopefully you’ll rethink your position and join/assist with the things we do here. We hope to provide a base of support to you don’t feel so discouraged.
Rachel, that’s very understandable. Don’t face them alone, move to New Hampshire and work together with like-minded folks to achieve a better future.
I live in Montague next to Greenfield, and the police that read this site need to know what is going on, on the large scale , to see clearly why they are being directed to act as tyrants (look into steroids too). The orders they take from their local commander that filter down to them from up high, ABOVE their (illegitimate) commander in chief, Obama (puppet), are all related to the big picture. JEWS FOR THE PRESERVATION OF FIREARMS OWNERSHIP has an excellent synopsis of the situation they MUST read (linked below).
Those that turn a blind eye to tyranny or actually act in sync with it, should not expect good things in our children’s futures or for themselves. They need to know that there are thousands of honorable men that WILL NOT do what they do in Greenfield and that We The People back the honorable, NOT the tyrannical. If being a cop wasn’t all about brandishing a .45 to extort money from my people, I would have been a cop a while ago. My heritage and culture do not allow me to be tyrannical for ANY reason or price. The MA police are not hardening their facilities for nothing! For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, and reaction is expected at the commander level!
I know many free staters don’t care much for the Constitution, only the Bill of Rights, but the way I see it is that it is a good place for Americans, both LEO’s and People to retreat to for some common ground that can be worked on in the future. On this Independence Day it is MOST important, and in the front of my mind constantly as I navigate the out of control police state in Western Massachusetts daily.

Over and out.
Under Oath, and in good faith,
Bill.
Bill, you could never be a police officer.
You people have no clue about the lifestyle… it isn’t a career. You people need to know that the police don’t make the rules… they have uphold them and enforce them!
If the police industry wasn’t corrupt, I could do it, and would like it. The purpose of government is where a cops duty begins. But they follow a maxim in law called, ” those that whish to be deceived, be deceived”. I have been quite successful with Rule 9 of civil procedure to protect myself, I do now which to be deceived! An honest cop would use proper standing for MA and save a bunch of bull shit. If I could police honestly, I would have done it yesterday. http://marcstevens.net/component/content/article/52-standing-cross-reference.html
Each and every cop or any government worker for that matter is a check and balance in the system. NOT a military officer blindly following orders! THAT is what is wrong with cops and the system. The herd mentality takes over common sense.
A cop’s Oath of Office is the proof of what I say is true. Don’t believe me, hear it from a Lawyer, Stewart Rhodes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2MJbw0o-B0&feature=player_embedded#!
