"Our consciousness needs to move away from “Divide and rule” and more deeply into “Unite and respond with love”. Humanity unites through consciousness. Know who you really are. The truth is within you and I. Allow yourself to cleanse your psyche. Heal your fears – love and only love, those with us and those we perceive are against us. This material world is only a mirror of your consciousness. There is nothing to fear. It is not a fight to be fought or a war to be waged. It is about healing our fears and learning to love. When you see your fears for what they are and master your emotions you will find freedom. This truth will set you free."

Minister watches taser training

Police Minister Judith Collins tonight got a first-hand look at police training to use Tasers on the front line. taser_widget

Ms Collins stopped by a training centre in Auckland to watch several officers being trained in the use of the controversial electronic stun weapons.

Police began to trial Tasers in 2006 amid some controversy about their use and they decided in 2008 to adopt their use.

A United Nations report in 2007 described the weapons as "a form of torture" but the Police Association said they could save police lives.

Police have already trained about 2600 police officers to use the Tasers, of which there are nearly 700 in the country. A further 900 are due to be trained by the end of the year.

Did our wonderful Minister of Police allow herself to feel the effects of a Taser on herself.  If not who does she think she is to condone the use of them.  Furthermore, tasers are being used on innocent and peaceful people.  People are getting assaulted simply for asking the name and badge number of a police officer now.  Propaganda TV shows make police out to be honourable and good members of society who protect people and keep them safe, but this is probably more of an occasional action of police.  There are too many experiences being had now by people who are assaulted by police when being peaceful because they dare to ask them for their identification details or because they remind them they are peace officers and under oath, that they are servants of the public.  Also, new stories are coming in now of people being fined for traffic violations that they have not committed.  Police are desperately forcing funds out of people now for things they have not done.  They have far too much power and tasers are only giving them more.
 
Western society makes people into criminals by robbing them through statute, act and regulations and then punishes them for having nothing and not being able to pay any more.  Western society is notorious for devouring, dividing and conquering non-western societies with their deceit and trickery.  Rape and pillage have simply taken another form.  Tasers make it legal.  Go figure!
 
And ... with all due respect ... thank you to the good cops who still have the human trait of empathy.  You are rare and we appreciate you!
