    One of the most vile fascist policeman ever bit the dust today! Gates created SWAT, DARE, CRASH, enlarged the LAPD And served as ploice chief, most notably during the LA riots of 1992.

    Among things he said was that infrequent or casual drug users "ought to be taken out and shot" because "we're in a war" and even casual drug use is "treason."

    his dismissive response to concerns about excessive force by police employing "choke holds." Gates attributed several deaths of people held in choke holds to the theory that "blacks might be more likely to die from chokeholds because their arteries do not open as fast as they do on 'normal people.'

    "Our people went out every single night trying to stop crime before it happened, trying to take people off the street that they believed were involved in crime. That made us a very aggressive, proactive police department. "

    Many commentators criticized Gates for Operation Hammer, a policing operation conducted by the LAPD in South Los Angeles. After eight people were gunned down at a birthday party in a drive by shooting in 1987, Gates responded with an extremely aggressive sweep of South Los Angeles that involved 1000 officers at any given time.

    As a vast majority of those arrested were never charged, Operation Hammer was roundly criticized by the left as a harassment operation whose chief goal was to intimidate young black and Hispanic men. In a PBS interview, when asked whether the local people in the minority areas expressed thanks to the police for their actions, "Sure. The good people did all the time. But the community activists? No. Absolutely not. We were out there oppressing whatever the community had to be, whether it was blacks, or Hispanics. We were oppressing them. Nonsense. We're out there trying to save their communities, trying to upgrade the quality of life of people..."

    This bastard died today. Good riddance. Another dead pig pushing up daisies.

    Huzzah!

    I'm surprised that he didn't get killed for his statements and actions. But oh well, the bastard's dead.

    Good riddance, I say.
