Cops Brag About Harassing Homeless Man Fixing Bikes (But if you are on welfare you're a Bum)Legality does not dictate morality.

Bearing in mind in its simplest form the agenda relies of developing hatred in any form against any and everyone spend a few moments to consider the plight of people on welfare.

Its alright to say everyone should be working and if you don't you're a lazy good for nothing bludger but what about the rest of the equation.

What the statement should really read is " If you don't work within the rules and boundaries we dictate"

Whats the most dangerous job in the world, scaffolder, Police, i'd wager its corner crack dealer selling drugs for a living, What? Thats not a job? Fuck you! You do the fucking job. You like that bit of blow you smoke after work at your approved job but the guy that grows it, sells it, distributes it and moves it they are all scum, that's not a real job! Bullshit!

A jobs a job, its a way to make money. Work involves doing something to make money when you would sooner be doing something else. So selling crack in the street is a job and a pretty dangerous and poorly paid one too.

Just because its not Authorized makes it no less of a job.

How about a deal like this. Cancel all wellfare and income tax along with it, then leave the door open to people making money in any way they see fit (Unless there is an unwilling victim).

Then just leave society to get on with it, if you can't do that then stop complaining about people getting a free paycheck, how else are they to survive! Jail?

Cops Brag About Harassing Homeless Man Fixing Bikes for Money, so Facebook Destroyed Them

A 38-year-old homeless man was attempting to earn some honest money by providing a much-desired service to the residents of Kennewick, Washington, when last week, he was threatened with extortion and arrest by the local police department who effectively ended his enterprise. After the Kennewick Police Department threatened the homeless man and prevented him from making a living, they took to Facebook to shamelessly brag about it. However, Facebook was not buying it.

Cops Brag About Harassing Homeless Man Fixing Bikes for Money, so Facebook Destroyed Them

The homeless man was not selling drugs, panhandling, or harassing local businesses and their patrons. He was providing willing customers, who were in need of bicycle repairs, with a service for which they agreed to pay him.

The man was operating out of a van and was set up in a parking lot behind a bank, under a tree, out of the way. He was harming no one, and, in fact, was actually helping.

However, he had not asked his local government for permission to make a living through the offering up of his skills — so, they set out on a mission to destroy him.

The Facebook post on the Kennewick Police Department Facebook page reads:

We responded a call where the businesses in the 100 block of Vista Way were complaining about a 38 year old transient out of Spokane who had set up a make shift bicycle repair business behind the CHASE bank. Officers stood by until he had packed all his stuff up and left He was also warned about getting charged with not having a business license and or trespassing if we find him set up somewhere else.

After bragging about ruining a man whose only ‘crime’ was trying to make a living by selling his skillset, the police department received some much-needed backlash.

They’ve received hundreds of comments on their post calling them out for shutting down an honest man trying to put food on his plate as well as bragging about it.

One user summed up the situation nicely, noting that threatening the man with arrest over a business license is nothing short of extortion.

“Hi, we’re the police/government. We steal your right to sell your skills for your own survival and be a productive member of the community, and then sell it back to you in the form of a license. Because we’re above the law and too cheap to earn a living besides through extortion”. Which is worse: people running their own businesses, or bums sleeping in corners all over the city? Taxation, licenses, and fines are all Theft and Extortion.

Another user pointed out how senseless it is to go after a man who is earning money, trying to not be homeless, while at the same time decrying their approach to homelessness.

Way to go Kennewick PD, you have successfully stopped a dangerous criminal. If he wants to eat he should beg for money like all the other homeless in this communist state. It’s a shame that some of them actually try to work instead.

Taking a humorous and sarcastic approach to the ridiculous nature of this post, one Facebook user pointed out the obvious.

Please go to every yard sale, every kid mowing a lawn, and everyone who has a car posted for sale and ask them for a business license. I don’t want anyone doing business without paying their extortion fees to you and your gang.

Don’t you have a church bake sale to go bust up some where?

Summing the situation up perfectly, Facebook user, Brent, wrote:

You proudly publish the fact that you harass entrepreneurial people and make it hard for them to work and earn an honest buck? What was the public safety concern? Might he have accidentally left someone’s tires a bit squeaky? Thank God you were there to keep the community safe!

What the response to the Facebook post illustrates is that a heartening trend is growing on social media showing that people are waking up to the state persecuting individuals over victimless crimes. A previous example of this trend was illustrated by the Alameda County Sheriff’s department posting a photo of a deputy arresting a man for selling fruits and vegetables on the roadside and attempting to justify it. When people read the department’s justification, they lashed out — peacefully — to let them know what they were doing is wrong.

Legality does not dictate morality. 

The photo, which has sparked so much backlash online, depicts a deputy confiscating strawberries and mangos while the man selling them sits on the sidewalk in handcuffs.

What’s going on in the photo is clear as day. However, the sheriff’s department took to penning a lengthy post in a futile attempt to explain and justify it. Naturally, they were owned by Facebook.

I have actually heard of cities requiring kids get a license to mow yards.  One must get approval and pay a fee to do anything, like the song 'Taxman' by George Harrison/Beatles.

If you drive a car, I'll tax the street
If you try to sit, I'll tax your seat
If you get too cold I'll tax the heat
If you take a walk, I'll tax your feet.
