STUN GUNS IN KNIGHTSBRIDGE

U.S. Military Police using tasers on Iraqi prisoners of war:  This document states that taser-use is second in the “continuum of force”, after verbal commands.  This means that if you do not comply instantly with the U.S. military, you are electrocuted:  Pain-Compliance, or Electro-Coercion in action:

An example of the Taser International Company corrupting the medical profession:

San Fransisco Bay Area Regional Transport cops:
 "There were also concerns over the fact that the target was a minor and that the officer deploying the Taser was a supervisor.
The BART police officer who improperly fired the Taser is still on duty and has not been disciplined as the internal investigation into the incident continues."

UNCAT:


“The Adelaide case occurred too late to be included in a secret analysis by The Alfred hospital on Taser safety carried out for Victoria Police, which began using the stun guns operationally in November.    The Age revealed on Monday that The Alfred analysis warned that Tasers posed "immediate risks and potentially fatal dangers"

Democracy!
"But in Montpelier, the City Council rejected a request from the Montpelier police chief and the city manager for permission to deploy tasers. After examining tasers at length, a citizen committee recommended against the weapons, deeming them unnecessary and potentially dangerous."

200 Children tasered by Britpol,  6 drive-stunned (cattle-prod mode)  (Probably at least twice that, as around half of Britain’s constabularies (including Devon & Cornwall) failed to respond to Freedom of Information Requests:  (The Daily Mail is a disreputable right-wing rag, however, it is worth noting what the police told them about using stun-guns on children.)
“A total of 27 forces provided responses on the use of Tasers against children during 2010, 2011 and 2012. But the true figure of Taser use on young children is likely to be much higher.”

LOCAL NEWS FOR PENZANCE, CORNWALL:
As Corwnall’s Corrupt Council sells out to Big-Business, a vast new  Sainsburys supermarket is appearing on the outskirts of Penzance, lurking like an ogre at the edge of town, waiting to take everybody’s money before they even get to the town.  This is very bad news for the small shops and traders of Penzance, but there is a way you can fight back against the arrogant march of virulent capitalism – follow the links below and take the pledge:   
BOYCOTT SAINSBURYS!

Jordan Begley & Damian Green

Look!  A baby is born.  He grows up to design weapons.   Another one grows up to work in a stun-gun factory – it’s darn good money!  This boy is destined to be Conservative Minister of Justice, and this one works in an ice-cream factory. One boy grows up and runs around town with his gun, he’s become a policeman.  One boy is freaking out at home, making a scene.  The other boys come in to the house and kill him with a cattle-prod – all perfectly fair, legal, proper, proportionate, reasonable, lawful, and British.  
Meanwhile, in Scottsdale, Arizona, the boys are getting rich.  These tasers are selling like hot-cakes.  Why, they’re the best thing since the GUN itself was created.  Why look, if you get out of order on the streets, we’ll bring you a God-damn heart-attack!

Andrew George Andrew Pimlott UNCAT Article 22

MP challenged over UNCAT.  Will Andrew George commit to supporting Article 22 and making the Convention Against Torture applicable to Britain?  Why did thatcher sign UNCAT in ’85 if she did not want it implemented?  Why has no government since ’85 brought the Convention into effect by signing Article 22?  Simply because Tory & New Labour governments do not want the behavior of state agents subject to the scrutiny of the International Community and International Law.  These governments want to present a façade of decency, legality and international approval for their ‘values’, but in reality, they made sure that the U.N. could not come nosing around investigating any allegations of torture, cruelty, or inhumane treatment in Britain.  The challenge has been put to MP Andrew George to use his influence to do something about it.  His Liberal Democrat party is currently governing Britain in a coalition with the Tory Party (!) so he’s in an excellent position to take action and stand up for Human Rights for one and all.   Andrew George’s response will be published in ‘The Limpet’ in due course. 


Petition against taser:
Open Letter To:  Rt.Hon.Andrew George, Member of Parliament for St.Ives & Scilly.      22.5.’13
Re:  ANDREW PIMLOTT / ARTICLE 22 UNITED NATIONS CONVENTION AGAINST TORTURE
Dear Andrew,
To recap, I have written to you numerous times on the subject of stun guns (tasers).                                     

Although the United Nations, the former British Government, the Green Party, Mebyon Kernow, Amnesty International, and a host of Human Rights groups have ruled the use of taser to comprise an illegal act of torture – you have repeatedly declined to state whether you believe the taser to be legal or illegal.  Since the UNCAT views taser use as torture, I will use their terminology from now on.                                                    

I’m sure you will have heard that Andrew Pimlott, a 32 year old man from  Plymouth burnt to death in April 2013 having been taser-tortured by Devon & Cornwall police whilst soaked in fuel and holding a naked flame and a fuel can.   This in spite of ACPO Ltd.  guidelines warning about using these weapons around gas fumes or spillages.                                                                                                                                            

I had corresponded with the previous Chief Constable, Stephen Otter, pointing out to him that taser violates both UNCAT and UDHR (Universal Declaration of Human Rights.)  His basic response was that a challenge to the legal status of taser could only come from “ministerial level”.  However, if you, as my  official representative,  would not even state your position on the legality of tasers,  how could I possibly open  democratic channels to initiate a dialogue?   Standard letters from the Home Office, promoting the idea that taser is safe and legal are of no relevance and do not constitute dialogue as they do not engage with the questions asked.                                                                                                                                            

When Stefan Naumczyk threw a bottle in a Falmouth street, he was tasered, handcuffed, knelt on and tasered again – on camera, in front of a large crowd.  When Penzance police refused to record a complaint of torture, I approached the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, in Geneva.  They told me something very interesting.   They told me that they could not look into the complaint because although Thatcher signed the UNCAT in 1985, she did not sign Article (catch?) 22.  As I expect you knew, Article 22 provides a mechanism for the implementation of the UNCAT.  Until Article 22 is signed, the Convention quite simply can not be put into practice in this country.  Therefore, for a nation to sign the UNCAT, but not sign up to Article 22 is a very cynical and deceptive thing to do, as it gives the impression at home and abroad, of Britain being a champion of Human Rights and Freedom, whilst actually giving itself license for sordid and secretive acts of barbarity and callousness.                                                                                        

Well, the CAT is out of the bag now, and the public are rapidly learning the truth about catch 22.  The public are learning that every government since ’85 has been going along with a deception, giving the people a false idea that we were protected from inhumane, degrading, cruel treatment, punishment and torture.  The public are also learning that Article 22  is the key to initiating the UNCAT and banning all torture instruments, including tasers,  from this nation, and others nations.  The ordinary people have been fooled for years, because we don’t have time to comb through the small print of international humanitarian legal agreements - we expect our politicians to do that for us.  The Tory and New Labour parties are both guilty of failing to act on this when in power.   Don’t the Lib Dems pride themselves on standing up for real justice?   Would it not be a wise politician who grasped this reality and became a genuine champion of Article 22?  Who fulfilled the promise of the Convention Against Torture, rather than going along with this 28 year old deception,  this mockery of the Rule of Law?                                                                                           

In summary, Andrew Pimlott is dead, the fifth taser-related death in Britain.  So far 779 have died in North America and many more around the World.  Today the police in Britain will torture 3 more people with stun guns.                                                                                                                                                                                

I ask you as my representative to make a strong commitment to the movement towards getting Britain to sign Article 22 of the United Nations Convention Against Torture.   I ask you to state clearly your legal position on taser.  Please take a stand, before someone else is killed in the street by a taser.
With best wishes,
Yours sincerely,   Jeremy Schanche,  RESIST CARDIAC ARREST.

(Since sending the above letter, four more people have died in USA after being struck by tasers.)

WHERE ARE THE STONES, ALEC ROBERTSON?

The Limpet tries to save St.Anthony's Chapel, Penzance, a Celtic chapel-site, from destruction. Uphold the UNCAT! Feral Bureau of Instigation. Poison Store Scam. Mass media reporting of taser-torture analysed.










FULL TEXT OF UNITED NATIONS CONVENTION AGAINST TORTURE – SIGNED BY BRITAIN IN 1985:
( Note how it says “ENGLISH LAW” )
UN defines use of taser as ‘a form of torture’: http://www.truth-out.org/article/un-taser-use-is-torture
Analysis of press reports from ‘The Cornishman’ (Daily Mirror Group):
21st July 2010: INNOCENT MAN TORTURED BY POLICE WITH TASER SHOT TO ‘GROIN’. Note that it is not possible to comment on this article on the website – ask yourself why. The police claim this incident was an ‘accident’. Mr Cox was unarmed, peaceable and breaking no laws whatsoever. Upon electrocution, Mr Cox, who had recently had a knee-cap replacement, sustained secondary injuries to his elbow and leg when neuro-muscular incapacitation caused him to loose control of his skeletal muscles and drop to the ground in intense pain and suffering. He then had to await the arrival of paramedics to remove the barbed prongs from his genital area and ankle:
UNARMED MAN TORTURED FOR BEING ‘VERBALLY AGGRESSIVE & THREATENING’ This incident appears to have occurred in late November 2010, in Newbridge. After torture, the man was accused of a ‘public order offence’ – a kind of Orwellian Catch-All which never seems to be explained in the press. Unless he was familiar with international law, the ‘public order offender’ will not have realized that he underwent torture – although his nervous system might have reached that legal position spontaneously… :
HEROIC POLICEMAN MACES UNARMED MAN, MACES HIMSELF, GETS TORTURED BY ANOTHER COP ETC.ETC.
9th September 2010: This Is Cornwall Website: This one is rather rich. The Mail Group left some inconsistencies in their reporting of this tale of the ‘Battle of the Jasons’. They claim that ‘Baddie’ Jason charged again – but did not claim he had ‘charged’ a first time. They use the phrase ‘gassed’ to describe the action of the chemical weapon that is now commonly used by police in action, namely the vapourized juice of chilli-peppers that is routinely sprayed into the faces of unarmed people who have not attacked the police. Also, is it normal to go from ‘desperately reasoning’ with someone, to ‘gassing’ them – without first trying to apprehend them?
STREET HASSLE: cops taser-torture and mace unarmed man…..
NEWSPEAKWATCH: ‘CAPTOR SPRAY’ = CHEMICAL WEAPON = CHILLI JUICE IN THE FACE.
Article describes taser as ‘officer protection’:
(No mention of the UN, torture, over 500 corpses, or anything like that….):
Article on electrical stunning to induce cardiac arrest in animals during slaughter:
If you follow the link above to the main blog-post entitled RESIST CARDIAC ARREST, you can read all about the history of electro-coercion, and how both the ECT (Electro-Convulsive ‘Therapy’) device and also the ‘taser’ device evolved from slaughter-house technology which goes back to the early twentieth century. Both these devices have been used to systematically torture people to Death by American military and CIA in both Viet Nam and Abu Grahib, Iraq, during ‘Operation Iraqi Freedom’.
On a happier note: How about ordering some nice clothes for Christmas?
