While the United states Armed Forces (private mercenaries) are stationed at 737 bases, in 130 nations around the world, defending “all freedom-loving people everywhere in the world,” Los Angeles, california statute enforcement officers Arturo Urrutia and Daniel Ramirez fatally shoot 20-year-old Eric Rivera for holding a bright green plastic squirt gun.  To ensure Rivera was dead, the SEOs ran over him with their patrol vehicle.
