Subject: DeKalb Co. Homeless Man's Lawsuit wins $165,000 of Taxpayers' Money

Dear Fans and Readers:





In many instances, winning a lawsuit is not the most difficult problem, but collecting it! In this case, there was no problem at all. Immediately, after the verdict, DeKalb County cut the man a $165,000 check on the spot. How prompt and easy can that be? Reason being that DeKalb Co. is fully aware of that it doesn't own a dang, dong copper cent! It's the taxpayers' money it is paying out! Meanwhile, let's talk a little about the incident lead up to this costly, taxpayer payout. Reportedly, this homeless man approached this DeKalb County police officer and asked him to arrest him. Instead of ignoring the man or trying to help him, the police officer put the man in his squad car and drove him to the next county and dropped him off. Later, apparently, the man made a deal with an attorney (it had to a deal; because this bum didn't have any money to hire him) to file a lawsuit on his behalf that his civil rights had been violated. This avarice attorney jumped on the case!



As in the case above, the policeman always creates the reason for going to court--whether it's appropriate or not! Being arrested and ticketed by the police, I've learned that, that policeman out there has absolute control over our lives; he can choose to give you a ticket, if he decides to--for anything; for instance, if he doesn't like your looks, the way you talk, if you refuse to "sir" him--any ole thing! And, oh, how about him being armed with that ole "probable cause" law? Most American citizens are unaware of just how this law works. It gives the policeman authority to act upon, not evidence, but what he thinks! If this clown even thinks you're doing something wrong, such as having drugs in your car or home, he can stop you and search your car or kick your door in and destroy your home without any judge signing a warrant; and you don't have any recourse in the court system. He can make your life a living hell on earth!



However, with your help, we can conquer this big, bad boy by petitioning Congress to enact legislation that would give the American citizens the right to not only be able to sue police departments, but, also, the police officer if found not guilty of the crime this police officer accused you of committing. Not only would this unclog our court systems of those frivolous tickets policemen are currently giving out, but would make the police officer really think before he writes you a ticket or arrests you without having enough credible evidence to get a conviction against you in court. Currently, there's no skin off his back if you're found not guilty; but then, if you win, you can sue him--take that pretty car, town house or condo!
