Don't ever trust the police, ever!!!

Newly released video paints a clearer picture of the shootout between a murder suspect and San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department deputies that killed him and his 15-year-old abducted daughter in Sept. 2022.

The video, obtained by Southern California News Group, shows that 15-year-old Savannah Graziano, who was abducted by her father Anthony on Sept. 26, 2022, after he allegedly murdered his estranged wife in Fontana, may have been surrendering at the time she appeared to have been shot by deputies. ...

"Je suis touché ! Je suis touché !"

En novembre 2023, dans le comté d'Okaloosa (Floride), un gland tombe d'un chêne sur un véhicule de patrouille.

L'agent Hernandez, 1 seconde après l'impact inoffensif se met à crier "Coups de feu ! Coups de feu !" Puis, dans une réaction également totalement excessive, le fonctionnaire de police se jette au sol, roule sur lui-même, dégaine son arme de service et tire à multiples reprises sur son propre véhicule de patrouille. "Je suis touché ! Je suis touché !", l'entend-on crier dans la vidéo, alors que personne ne le vise.
Au même moment, un collègue du policier, qui se trouvait également à l'extérieur du véhicule, dégaine aussi son arme et vide à son tour son chargeur en direction du véhicule.

La vidéo hallucinante de ce moment de parano extrême digne de Bip-Bip et Wild Coyote est dans l'article, au lien pic.twitter.

Taxpayers Paid $500/Officer For Cops To Be Taught How To Be More Bigoted, Sexist, And Ignorant

It’s not like cops needed any more help being intolerant. It seems to come with the job. A badge, a gun, and a sense of superiority tends to turn even marginal cops into people who spend their entire careers adding to the “us vs. them” chip on their shoulders.

But even cops with the best intentions will soon find themselves persuaded to treat the people they serve as people who are beneath them. Shows of compassion — much less demonstrations of base-level humanity — are few and far between.

It shouldn’t be this way. But it is. Police trainers tell officers civil rights are just impediments to efficient policing and should be brushed aside whenever possible. Cop trainers tell cops they’ll have the best sex of their lives after gunning down someone in the street. Supposed medical experts tell cops “excited delirium” is not only a real thing, but an extremely handy excuse any time they have a dead body on their (bloodied) hands.

The end result is the amplification of the worst aspects of cop culture. Those who have the “training and experience” to provide others with training and experience are often those who have spent years — if not decades — soaking in the rot created by the worst apples in the barrel.

There’s not much that’s surprising about this new report from Tracey Tully for the New York Times. About the only thing capable of lowering a jaw into pre-drop mode is the fact that video evidence of this harmful mode of teaching exists online.

Why Big Tech, Cops, and Spies Were Made for One Another

by Cory Doctorow

The American surveillance state is a public-private partnership.

https://theintercept.com/2023/10/16/surveillance-state-big-tech/

The techlash has finally reached the courts. Amazon’s in court. Google’s in court. Apple’s under EU investigation. The French authorities just kicked down Nvidia’s doors and went through their files looking for evidence of crimes against competition. People are pissed at tech: about moderation, about monopolization, about price gouging, about labor abuses, and — everywhere and always — about privacy.
