      <description>Darn, I thought this post was going to be about hemorrhoids, and maybe about how cops were stopping people to search for them.</description>

      <description>So should we look out for huge angry cops, or people that have been exposed to toxic chemicals?&#xD;

Roid-a-cops and police brutality on a bad judgment call&#xD;
By the Toxic Reverend&#xD;
http://myspace.com/toxicreverend&#xD;
 that has been asking,"Who's a  criminal" ?&#xD;
http://people.tribe.net/toxicreverend&#xD;
&#xD;
   We as tax payers put out a lot of cash to train a policeman.&#xD;
They join the force, wanting to do good,help people and try to&#xD;
make a difference in a very screwed up world.&#xD;
&#xD;
   Some times, I have to wonder what changes ?  How do some&#xD;
of them become "bad apples" and give their entire profession a&#xD;
bad name ?&#xD;
&#xD;
   For a few years, I have been doing research on the effects of&#xD;
the "low dose cumulative effects of toxic chemicals" with violence&#xD;
and abusive behavior.&#xD;
&#xD;
   Law enforcement is not excempt from such toxic chemical&#xD;
exposures. But they do maintain a harder "front" than most&#xD;
classes of society, with the "I am fine" presentation. Their&#xD;
ego's are just that way, or they probably would not be in that&#xD;
profession.   Think about it.  They risk their lives on a daily basis&#xD;
to "uphold the law".  They are heroes.  And as such, they are&#xD;
not to prone to saying, they have a problem, of any kind.&#xD;
&#xD;
   While I was researching this issue, I became acquainted&#xD;
with Mesha. .  Her son had been shot 48 times by 9 San Francisco&#xD;
policeman.  She started The IDRISS STELLEY FOUNDATION&#xD;
with the money from the wrongful death suit of her sons murder.&#xD;
http://mysite.verizon.net/vzeo9ewi/idrissstelleyfoundation/&#xD;
&#xD;
   Mesha was very kind and patient the times that I have called.&#xD;
But the other day, she got me.  She admitted that yes, the toxic&#xD;
chemicals could also impact a policeman's decision to use&#xD;
deadly force.  But then she asked what I thought might happen&#xD;
when a "Toxic Victim" (as I call "mentally ill") that is acting out,&#xD;
meets up with a policeman on steroids ?&#xD;
&#xD;
   Mesha agreed that everything that I was on about can apply&#xD;
to such a situation as an unjustified police shooting.  But she&#xD;
also thought that steroid abuse by law enforcement is inducing&#xD;
some "bad judgment calls", more than anything else.  And that&#xD;
these factors are being protected by the " Blue Wall of Silence".&#xD;
&#xD;
   So being an open minded hippy, after talking to Mesha,  I did &#xD;
a couple of Google searches on the subject.&#xD;
&#xD;
The results astounded me.  The Google search terms were&#xD;
"police steroid abuse" and "police steroid abuse testing".&#xD;
&#xD;
I thought I would find masses of articles about the police busting&#xD;
people for it.  But nooooo, I find massive articles about police&#xD;
forces around the country being busted.&#xD;
&#xD;
   Si I tried posting "Roid-a-cops and police brutality" at&#xD;
myspace.  It would not post.  So I sent it to a number of&#xD;
friends at myspace.  They could not get it to post.  Though&#xD;
Ken said a couple of days later that he was able to post it.&#xD;
Seems there is a tracking program at myspace for censorship.&#xD;
This report has finally posted at Myspace bulletin's and my blog.&#xD;
After some serious complaining is rather public ways, across the&#xD;
Internet.  &#xD;
&#xD;
   Anyway, I became rather frustrated and called Mesha.  What&#xD;
I had decided to do was spread a "true rumor" that did seem&#xD;
to get "their attention".  And not just Mysapce's.&#xD;
&#xD;
   I called the Sonoma County sheriff and a captain answered&#xD;
the phone. He said that the sheriff was unavailable. So I told&#xD;
the captain that I had done a Google search that shows police &#xD;
departments around the country were being busted by the feds &#xD;
for steroid abuse. &#xD;
&#xD;
I told him the search terms and I could sense the panic&#xD;
in his voice.  I told him that the searches reveal Boston police&#xD;
being busted by a federal grand jury investigation.  Dallas also&#xD;
came up with the search and too many others to list.&#xD;
&#xD;
Now I only went over the first ten results of the first search term&#xD;
and twenty of the second.  When I got to the one about president&#xD;
Bush talking about steroid abuse in a State of the Union address,&#xD;
I stopped.  After all, Bush was talking about steroid abuse in&#xD;
sports.  Maybe he should have been a bit more specific and&#xD;
included law enforcement. You know .... the people that enforce&#xD;
the laws against such things as drug abuse.&#xD;
&#xD;
   Not that I want to snitch out the feds and risk screwing up any&#xD;
investigation that they might have.  I am not aware of Sonoma&#xD;
County being investigated for steroid abuse.  Maybe it isn't. Maybe&#xD;
it is ?  All I know is that I do not want to be charged with &#xD;
"obstruction of justice", for bringing this to their attention.&#xD;
After all, more often than not, "no good deed goes unpunished".&#xD;
&#xD;
   What I can point out is what other police departments that&#xD;
have ignored the abuse of steroids like an ostrich, have found.&#xD;
&#xD;
 While they are so bent over with their heads in the sand,&#xD;
the feds sneak up and give them an exam that nobody likes.&#xD;
Regardless of sexual orientation.&#xD;
&#xD;
   As the prior mentioned search reveals, it was a Federal Grand&#xD;
Jury investigation that busted the Boston police department for&#xD;
steroid abuse.&#xD;
&#xD;
   Maybe if all of the San Francisco MUNI bus drivers that have&#xD;
to pee in a bottle for random drug screening became aware of this.&#xD;
They might be able to break the censorship and warn others of&#xD;
the impeding steroid exams .... or a, the investigations that have&#xD;
busted so many police departments around the country ?&#xD;
&#xD;
One of my psychologists had told me that "the good and the &#xD;
bad news it that I am not paranoid or delusional".&#xD;
&#xD;
Now please excuse me .... I need to get back to editing&#xD;
"Toxic Revelations" and my Myspace profile / blog.  It is&#xD;
my intention to post this at my blog. If I can ......&#xD;
&#xD;
Blessings,&#xD;
