The family of a 75-year-old man who died days after an Oregon sheriff’s deputy allegedly broke his ribs and punctured his lung over a dispute about the man’s backyard barbecue has filed a $3.85 million lawsuit.

The suit faults Benton County Sheriff’s Deputy James “David” Young for pushing Dennis Sachet, whom the suit says was 5 feet, 4 inches tall and 124 pounds, against a car and then pinning him to the ground after a neighbor called in a complaint that Sachet was violating a summer burn ban.

    Not enough people understand we are disposable. Like cops and shit kill people sometimes… It’s fucked and it happens on accident due to stupidity usually.

    …but people don’t seem to let it sink in that on the grand scale, we are disposable to our government. We can be tossed out like bad quality control and expired goods as long as it suits the larger objective of the nation.

    Regular people need to start detoxing from what America is and understand what it’s like to actually be human first.

    We’ve know for a long time our entire society is lead by something unnatural. Our entire life’s narration is the narration someone else created… This has been shown over and over again. We shouldn’t want to live in a world that’s not based on truth.

    It’s fucking insane that life is what it is. People are like a bunch of zombies now, from streets to the cops and military, to politicians and citizens left right or center, it’s like a cancer stole their souls and they exist to keep the cancer growing and spreading. Even the American dreamers with success fit this category and that success is not authentic worth. That success does not equate to being a respectable honorable human being.
