What if, when the alert is sent, people do the opposite and protect the subject of the alert?

The alert says that John Doe is wanted for assaulting a police officer. Folks would then know that John Doe needs our support. That way, the alert system works for the people instead of against them.

This isn't Germany 1930. We KNOW that 99% of cops are evil and dirty.

When it was found out what "German citizens" did (or didn't do) during the war they were ostracized. What we need to do is mass-ostracize anyone that we know that IS a pig or wants to be one.

Might as well start now! You don't want sub-120-IQ people as your "friends" anyhow.

We need someone rich to step up to REWARD the elimination of rogue police, and pay for the best legal defense and journalistic coverage for the person who did the elimination.

By inaction, all we are doing is letting the enemy grow stronger by the day.

What about a nationwide alert that exposes Police abusing their powers? huh? Huh!

Since when did the police in general change from "To Protect and Serve" to "Obey My Authority and Kneel"? We need a NATIONAL alert system so that if a cop decides it's okay to fuck your wife, and you tell him that you are going to kick his ass, a national alert goes out with a bounty on your head? MAKES SENSE TO ME!!! What the ever loving FUCK?

This may not end well. We'll see who it doesn't end well for.

Dorner, you may have been a prophet.

I hope this system is abused to the point of mentally breaking the cops who think they need this fucking asinine security protocol. First tasers don't work. Now they need a lifealert? Fuck off.

This is just furthering the "Us" vs "Them" mentality.

It's the public vs the "masters".

they'll probably be congratulated and hidden away with friendly faces.

So your getting pulled over and the cop walks over and has a heart attack right in face as you roll down your window. Do you just get a massive fucking crosshair on your head and a country wide call to arms to take you down with maximal force while your waiting for an ambulance to turn up for the passed out cop?

Or is it a case of there's a protest and things start to turn violent so you get the hell out of there and get caught on camera fleeing the scene as the kettling begins and police get hit with signs and bricks. Now your on the take down list and get shot out in the street the next day on the way to pick up some milk before you even know what's happening by the national police defence force.

I'm thinking now, a remarkable amount of brand new twitter accounts are being made, for the purpose of "meet at the park for the occupy protest. Bring guns." And just like that protests are illegal.
