If any of us chased down and shot somebody *for wearing a hoodie* we would go down for manslaughter or murder. When the cops do it, they face no charges at all.

We spoke to @paulrgregoire.bsky.social from Sydney Criminal Lawyers about the horrific death of Colin Burling and why people experiencing mental health emergencies need healthcare, not police.

Next time you see a nazi rally, contact police and tell them you saw one of them carrying a sign with a 🍉 on it.

If Chris Minns stubbed his toe, he'd say the answer is more police powers.
Cops aren't the solution to racism, they're the problem.
It's already a crime to incite hatred based on race, but the cops didn't care - in fact they approved the Form 1 for the rally!

A demarcation dispute b/w predatory ICE thugs and predatory non-ICE thugs is an ugly thing to witness eh.
New: The FBI is quietly urging ICE agents to properly ID themselves in the field.
In a bulletin to law enforcement last month, it warned of criminals posing as ICE to rob, rape, kidnap—a problem it says now demands national coordination to confront.

New article - police and unions!
Police and labour unions have a contradictory relationship. A key role of police has been to break strikes, harass and even kill union members. At the same time, in many jurisdictions police are highly unionised themselves.

Here's the full judgement from Tuesday's strip-search case.
A bit that stood out to me was the cop who claimed Meredith said “I had a smoke with a joint this morning”, an odd phrase that she denies ever saying. The judge accepted that she didn't say that.
