Raspberry Jam It In Me posted:Wait, what? Police is now allowed to murder people in custody? Can't be right. It's so out of place with all the other law changes. I wonder what the definition of 'in custody' is here because someone in custody obstructing so hard that warning shots and then shooting at are needed doesn't sound like the common sense meaning of the term.

When you see how hard it is for cops to be held to face any real scrutiny after a black guy in police custody dies of And after protests, it's the guy's brothers who are in jail. And this was before this law.

That's a mistranslation. It doesn't refer to people being held in jail, but to people being chaperoned by a cop and attempting to flee. If a cop tells you to stay there, and you don't, then they get to warn you thrice to obey and then shoot.

It's not exactly reassuring that this is "only" a license to shoot people in the back if they run.

1. Capture "criminal youths" 2. Tell them to stay put. 3. Go hide somewhere and wait for them to attempt to escape. 4. Weakly yell "Stop!" three times, then unload your arsenal. 5. Go to 1.

Pretty much. Until now, they only needed to scare them into hiding into electrical substations. But I've got a funny piece of news though: François Hollande said that he regrets giving up on running for reelection and that he didn't say he was giving up on politics.

So it looks like the truck thing was done by a Tunisian refugee who the German police knew was dangerous but since Tunisia wouldn't take him back they did nothing about it. Real huge mystery how the right is surging in power, a real head scratcher here. That is near criminal negligence on the part of the authorities, are they really just going to sit back and wait for everyone to start goose stepping? You just can't bring in a million people without any sort of plan of how to deal with the inevitable problems that arise from a huge influx of unskilled and mostly uneducated people along with the gigantic cultural differences. What in the hell were they thinking? There was definitely ways to prevent the backlash that has happened (and is about to get significantly worse) but it required honesty, not calling everyone who had justifiable concerns about the difficulties involved a horrible racist. When had that ever worked? Certainly not brexit, certainly not trump...it's time for a change in strategy because it objectively dies not work! As was predicted years ago in the old refugee thread the moderates, who would be amenable to dealing with this problem in a thoughtful manner, are getting alienated and are fleeing to the only parties that pretend to give a gently caress. I mean you couldn't give a bigger gift to the far right than admitting that you know dangerous people are coming in with the refugees but you can't do anything about it.

Yeah I have had people talking to me actually saying "none of those people want to integrate! none!" and when called on that poo poo "I'm not a racist, but.." My own view on these things has changed recently. I understand the panic people are feeling, even though I don't really feel like I'm in danger because the probability that I die in a terror attack is so low. I think there is a fundamental difference that people don't grasp. When there's a terrorist attack people wrongfully say "a refugee did it". A TERRORIST did it, he's certainly no refugee. What people don't seem to get is that, refugees or no, those that want to harm us would get to Europe anyway. There's no wall that would protect us. I think there need to be more initiatives near the muslim community. Talk to the Imams, understand the issues that people feel are important, make a deal that benefits both sites and makes sure that they denounce extremists, actually get to know what these people feel.

All reasonable people agree that people, whether they be citizens or asylum seekers, who pose a public threat should be prevented from going postal. All reasonable people also agree that you can't shoot those people to the Moon because they would die there, making us murderers. And if they are refugees who have left their homes and families to save their lives then we can't send them back to a place where they would die, for the same reason.

The police and authorities need some tools to deal with these guys though, because almost every single terrorist in europe was well known and a risk beforehand. And yet they slipped through the net. So if the answer is more money, stricter rules then hell yes do it. Doing nothing will end up destroying society.

Of course non-racist criticisms of immigration policy exist. Just for someone reason these right-wing people criticising immigration policy tend to not be arguing out of genuine concern for the immigrant.
