10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
False claims made in order detain innocent humans is far to common and we need to do something about it, where is the recourse?
It was meant to be in the courts, civil and criminal, and in the most outlandish cases, the FBI and ICC.
But…that’s not where we’re at. So we have to decide what a new world looks like without these systems to protect us from the system itself.
They are using it to just delay you. They know it will likely be dismissed but it gets less likely each day. You are still in jail and not protesting in the meantime.
Every one of these arrests needs to be regarded as kidnapping, same as ICE.
When criminals wear badges.
If they even have badges. These guys cover their faces and refuse to show any kind of badge or ID.
If the police are making all these false accusations how can you trust ANY claims they make?
Are you saying the police are making false claims? that's really hard to believe... police are upst... ok I can't keep this up yeah they're all pieces of shit with tiny egos and they would lie to make you pay for a crime you didn't commit
The problem? qualified immunity!
While I can see the need for qualified immunity, the problem is “qualified”. It’s not called “blanket immunity”, so why do they get away with treating it as such? Lying to deprive someone of human rights should not be “qualified”
Stop resisting
