The #LAPD is not expected to like the existence of “#FuckTheLAPD merchandise. But their sole remedy is to not do things that result in people wanting to buy and wear “Fuck the LAPD” merchandise. I understand that would be a difficult task. But I promise you that it would still be easier than trying to get a court to rule that “Fuck the LAPD” shirts violate the LAPDF’s #IntellectualPropertyRights.
CA Supreme Court says cops can't detain you if you want nothing to do with them. 'Acting suspiciously' won't cut it anymore. They actually have to name the 'articulable facts' observed to justify detaining you.
That thing last month where the LAPD had their lawyers send a bogus DMCA takedown request to some people selling "Fuck the LAPD" t-shirts, and the t-shirt people's lawyer sent back a letter that literally just said, "LOL, no"? Well, here comes act 2: the "LOL, no" lawyers have sent a 🔥scathing🔥 letter to the other lawyers asking why they shouldn't seek attorney's fees.
Yesterday Salt Lake City Police held a "Coffee with Cops" event at a Starbucks in downtown SLC. The goal of these events it to 'connect with the community', which would be much harder if they told people their backstory.
Two of the officers there were responsible for the killing of Nykon Brandon in August 2022. Brandon was an unarmed (he was in only shorts) homeless man who Fisher Brewing called the police on even though he had already left.
#McBride Was sentenced today. Six years, or two years if he gets out on parole.
McBride was not allowed a lot of his evidence in court, preventing any possibility of him winning the case.
David McBride photocopied over 200 proofs of the #Australian [#Australia ] military committing, and hiding, war crimes in Afghanistan.
After McBride released his proof to the #ABCaustralia the AFP raided the journalists. Jailing journalists is a dangerous precedent that the government has toyed with for decades, but never committed to (see #WitnessK ). Jailing McBride is possibly the most damaging thing to Australian #democracy the government has enacted in decades. It was possible to pardon him, like they did with Witness K.
Fuck the judge that sentenced him, fuck the prosecution, and fuck the government ministers for not speaking out on this, even the ones that couldn't do anything about it.
Fun fact : ma compagne mon bébé de 9 mois et moi avons été stoppé par les gendarmes avant de rejoindre la manif contre les #GigaBassines de Bouzel. Ils nous ont obligé à dérouler les banderoles pour la Palestine que nous transportions. Ils les ont pris en photo et ont voulu me les prendre en me disant que je pourrai les récupérer plus tard à la gendarmerie de Pont-du-Château.
J'ai refusé et j'ai demandé un motif légal. Ils ont bafouillé, on appelé au talkie et nous ont laissé passer. #ACAB
Just fcking went fuck off on #VIHA & #BCGovt & #BCPUBLICHealth asshats AGAIN. Fired off at them. Don't care how anyone feels about that. It's coming up on my Dad's death again & triggering antimasker #police traumas in our home again. I'm still fucking angry about it all! I still have no fucking justice & still trying to fight despite us not having funds to fight back. I'll fight in public!
