    I don't even want to see it ... they're sick puppies ... functioning sociopaths.

    I think they should enter them into a Polish slapping match.

    To be fair, I don't think so. The child was hysterical and potentially suicidal ─ she said that she was going to kill her dad and then herself. The cops were merely being uneducated idiots and so they didn't know any better than to use pepper spray on her.

    They are not properly trained to deal with psychological issues. Neither are they trained to deal with the disabled population. It's a travesty for all involved.

    You have the right to refuse. They have the right to shoot you.

    One such document, a memo from then-LAPD Chief Charlie Beck in May 2015, said that "When completing a FI report, officers should ask for a person's social media and e-mail account information and include it in the 'Additional Info' box." That includes Twitter, Instagram, or Facebook profiles, the memo said.
    Cops in LA are asking for online profile information.



    From Beverly Hills to Illinois, law enforcement officers are using “copyright hacking” in an attempt to prevent activists from posting videos of encounters to the internet. Over the past few months, some police have loudly broadcast copyrighted music when confronted by cameras. The logic is that the music should trigger recognition software used by platforms, and either prevent videos from being broadcast live on Instagram and YouTube or lead to them being taken down.
    Yeah, they know they're being abusive and they're actively covering it up.

    This is an excellent 1ST Amendment auditor! Talks legal circles around a couple of lazy brains, then good cop supervisor comes in to set things straight and save them more trouble:

    Cops in Austin Texas and now California are getting in trouble. The DA in Austin ran on a platform of indicting cops. Which means that the people of Austin want the cops to be accountable and do their jobs.

    The cops in California were not just turning in reports which vastly misrepresented their police work, they were literally making stuff up while they weren't even working.

    The public now does not believe the police reports and is looking for accountability. This will likely be happening more around the country. Cell phones are demonstrating that the police reports vary wildly from actual events.

    People know they're funding this stuff with their tax dollars and they don't like it.

    Modern day highway robbery in America, done legally under a federal government ruse known as "Civil Asset Forfeiture", a very hot legal topic here these days. Of course an all important way to avoid this happening to you if traveling with a large sum of cash, is to never give consent to search your vehicle, but unfortunately, all too many people are still not aware of their right to refuse roadside searches when zero probable cause is present, and just trust the police to do the right thing.

    I hit the highway with a couple of thousand dollars in cash a couple of months ago, and this was a very real concern if I happened to get pulled over. At least there's some comfort in knowing your rights, knowing it's okay to flat out say "No" to a search. The "nice policeman", especially state troopers, are not there to be your friend on the side of the highway.

    This poor guy learned that the hard way. Don't get into answering a slew of questions, don't allow a search of your vehicle, take the ticket and be on your way. They prey on people not knowing this shit, it's like going fishing.

    On the lighter side.

    After being an auditor for long enough, some of these guys get knowledgeable and comfortable enough to have a little fun with a traffic stop, maybe do a little bit of trolling as a night cap to make them go away

    Jeff Gray is pretty much the OG of the auditing community. Been following his work since 2015, and seen him do some ballsy shit, but this is the first time seeing him repeatedly daring a cop to arrest him.
