Veteran Jonathan Montano was brutally beaten to death by VA police in Loma Linda, CA for trying to leave the hospital after waiting 4 hours with a needle in his arm.
His widow recently filed suit. The couple had been married for 44 years.
“The summoned VA Police Department police officers then stopped Jonathan Montano from leaving the VA Hospital in Loma Linda, by tackling him to the floor, slamming his head on the floor, and kneeing and stomping on his neck, and otherwise brutalizing and restraining him,” the lawsuit said.

Good grief, since when did people lose their civil rights by entering a hospital? Why was he not free to leave?
If you like your medical plan, you can keep it. If you don’t like your medical plan, you better stay put because they will kill you for leaving.
Another “thank you got your service”

Kill a cop, save a life.
How awesome of you to think that way. Maybe it could be said about a thug, s skinhead, a Muslim, a “fill in the blank…” that would be fair and sensical, right?
