This is effin' madness

Unbelievable - racism on steroids

To think that it's all punishment for daring to vote for the black man.

Racism has been around a lot longer than 2008.

Snip-"There's really no way to know how you're going to act when there's a gun pointed at you and when you think you're going to lose your life," said Gaston.

Gaston works as a defensive tactics instructor. He says he felt the best way to de-escalate the situation was to walk away. Eventually Toledo police arrived after getting a 911 call. But the caller from inside the IRS office never tells 911 the man with the gun is a uniformed deputy sheriff."

Snip-"Gaston and his wife have now filed a civil lawsuit against that security guard Seth Eklund and the security company seeking compensation after Gaston allegedly suffered emotion and psychological distress and lost wages."

Snip-"I would say ‘Clearly your training is lacking and the fact that you went 0 to 100. Lethal force is unacceptable," said Gaston."{<<no shit}


Seth is a deep mess

bankrupt these racist MoFos and those who enable them

It also made me wonder: WHY does someone named Seth Eklund need to be going by the name of Paul Blart? Might Seth Eklund have something in his record that „Paul Blart“ does not?

Slang for a rent-a-cop throwing his weight around.

This Blart should never be allowed anywhere near a badge and gun again.

What the hell did he think he was doing to a uniformed LEO? The fact that the real cop was black is what this is all about. The wannabe's racism took over his body as he took his stance with both hands on his extended gun.

What an armed idiot, a danger to anyone near him.

standards they have as a cop he must suck really bad. Just like that piece of shit george zimmerman who was unable to become a cop .

Does it matter if you're not allowed to enter the building with a gun if you're a uniformed police officer? A lot of federal buildings have signs saying that firearms aren't allowed. Does that include police officers not on duty or not on police business?

It used to be that federal buildings were guarded by federal employees. Then the Bush Jr. administration contracted out most of that. So now they are guarded by contract guards. Who follow the rules, that say no weapons allowed in, except for federal officers, and local police who have been called to the scene. This would not meet the criteria. So he is not allowed in, even in uniform. He is not there at the request of the IRS, so he is not permitted to bring a gun into the building.

Since the LEO was going to the IRS office, that should be considered a federal building and yes he could be told he couldn't bring his gun into the office. They also might have a lock box for local officers. Only a federal officer can bring a gun into a federal building.

However, pulling the gun at the officers back and following him out. That's crazy.
Calling backup, even 911 was fine and asking the uniform cop to wait until this get worked out.
It's possible the local uniformed cop could have gotten fined here.

Local cops can't carry everywhere, airports and federal facilities, for example. Military bases, at least during my time, wouldn't allow it either.

There are a lot of people in this world that think linearly.

The wannabe cop apparently, not being a real cop, never heard of it and foolishly created a situation out of nothing.

The real cop, realizing he was dealing with a poorly trained fool, decided it wasn't worth an argument over and walked away to de-escalate but the wannabe wasn't having anything to do with de-escalation.

Hope the real cop's suit is successful and the charges against the wannabe are followed through. And needless to say, the security guard should never be allowed to come near a badge and gun again.

he DID leave, and Blart chased him down the hall and to the elevator to prevent him from leaving, holding his gun out and ready to fire the whole time.

it's as if they've forgotten that there are security cameras everywhere, plus cell phone cams in many instances, recording everything they do. This was a federal building so of course there are cameras.

They caught his every power trip move and every lie about the real cop wouldn't leave. The real cop had the good sense to try to de-escalate as he realized he was dealing with a poorly trained fool who wasn't worth wasting his time with.

That is probably what infuriated the wannabe, the fact that the real cop, rather than follow his orders to leave his gun in his car, turned around and walked away from him without saying a word to him.

So, even if the uniformed cop agreed to leave his gun in the car...wouldn't he have to leave the building to do that?

No, I don’t think Blart handled this well, but I don’t think a local or even state officer can carry a gun into a federal building.
