If you ever wonder about why being willing to use violence to force this change from rule by bully to rule by you is important to the cause, this is it.
If you or I had an eagle feather they would kick our doors in, shoot our dogs, terrify our children and act indignant about having to do it.
Until this changes, until the masses push back, this is the ongoing double standard to amerikan 'just us'.
Albany, NY — In the land of the free, the court and legal systems, as well as law enforcement, operate on two separate planes—one for the politically connected class, and one for everyone else. In case after corrupt case, cops, politicians, judges, and law makers are busted committing often horrific crimes and they face no consequences. The most recent egregious example of this separate treatment under the law comes out of New York and involves the state’s top official, the governor.
Last week, during a political gathering in the Adirondacks, Gov. Andrew Cuomo admitted to breaking a federal law, continuing to break the law, and noted how he treasured breaking the law. Not surprisingly, no investigation was launched, no fines levied, and the governor of New York went about life as usual.
The crime Cuomo admitted to committing and continuing to commit deals with a federal law that prohibits non-Native Americans from possessing bald eagle parts, including feathers. The law is decades old and is part of the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act of 1940.
During the event in which he was announcing an economic development grant for the village of Saranac Lake, Cuomo took time out of the speech to reflect on the time that he and his family took an eagle feather from the lake and noted how they continue to proudly display it at their home.
It's a club and you ain't in it.
