In the days where cops open fire on 90 year old ladies, a smoke grenade calls for mass overtime, donning military gear, and abuse of people minding their own business.

Years back when cops were Peace Keepers, they had respect for people, animals, property, and human life.

Since the false flag takeover, we now have Law Enforcement which will machine a girl scout troop if they are walking a dog, or riding bikes on a sidewalk. They have no respect for anyone or anything but their pension and downright hate Americans.

Blame the pyramid of power structure that pulls the strings and never forget Building 7.

Perhaps the neighbor problem was caused by smoke? I agree that the police response was kind of over the top. And what a dopey guy, first telling the cop he had another one and then signing his go to jail paper, whoops. I mean consent to search form.
