Will Grigg?s Liberty Minute

February 8, 2012

Last October 29, Henderson, Nevada resident Adam Greene was driving to work at about 4:30 a.m. when his blood sugar plummeted and he went into insulin shock. After he stopped at an intersection, a police officer with a drawn gun approached the car and kicked the driver?s side window.

Another dragged Adam violently from the car and threw him face-down to the pavement. Within seconds, Adam was surrounded by a half-dozen officers. Five of them restrained him while one kicked him repeatedly in the face and head, shouting ?Stop resisting, motherf***er!? Two others struck him repeatedly in the side and midsection.

The officers quickly became aware that they were dealing with a sick diabetic, rather than a drunken driver.

A dashcam video of the incident caught one officer expressing concern over the fact that the incident had been recorded.

?It?s on camera,? the officer said.

?They don?t know you,? another replied. ?I wouldn?t worry about it.?

Not surprisingly Adam continues to feel extreme worry and apprehension over the incident, and feels extreme anxiety in the presence of police officers.

Given the impunity that characterizes contemporary law enforcement, what honest citizen wouldn?t feel anxiety in their unwanted company?

Let us take back the liberty wherewith Christ has made us free.
