Blog DISCLAIMERS

Please be advised that this written work is theory. It's theorizing, pondering and amateur research. For legal reasons I state that I have no actual belief in these theories as fact, if I did I would have sought legal recourse. Until that occurs this blog can only be considered theory. If it does then any and all actions PAST AND FUTURE that have been taken against me during the years producing this work will be labeled war crimes under international law and any other legal protections that apply.
I am a writer, an activist and artist. I claim my RIGHT TO EXIST legally under US Constitution and international law.

This is an educational blog for awareness as well as sometimes a telling of candid personal experiences to demonstrate theories as they might be experienced by a person who theoretically is existing under such conditions. Thus the 'candid' expression, poetic license and marketing myself as product or character. This is NOT a journal or diary.
Being a reasonable person of sound mind if I had concerns for my safety or others I would take responsible action for self care as my established medical history can demonstrate.
Any actions taken against me by others questioning my sanity or competence based on my produced work will be construed as activist/dissident intimidation and whistle blower retaliation and proper legal action will be taken against you by my family and support system.

Be warned that no further interference with my production of meaningful work as an artist and activist will be tolerated.

  1. It is certainly remiss of officers to refuse to review CCTV evidence of an alleged assault, or indeed an alleged theft.

    Even if the first man had genuine cause to suspect theft, and it seems this was mendacious anyway, reasonable force in a citizen's arrest doesn't include laying hands on someone who is not offering or threatening violence and has not been challenged and given an opportunity to stop and explain.

    Medawar would support to the hilt a shopkeeper who injured someone heading towards him or the till, but if someone's walking out of the shop, having been through the checkout process, there's absolutely no call for anything beyond a polite "excuse me?"

    In Medawar's experience, most actual shoplifting is done by highly organized gangs, and one of the things they do is to con the security into chasing some innocent member of the public first, then calmly stroll out of the store with a few thousand quid's worth of stuff.

    San Diego police might want to look at the CCTV tape to see who else left the store while it was all going on!

    There's a police station in Bond Street, London, devoted to dealing with this. They have a great deal of expertise and San Diego police have only to ask.
