one of the most effective tactics for the black panthers was to show up to police were openly carrying to make sure they didn't just shoot someone or beat the poo poo out of them

this is why open carry is illegal in the state of CA now

but now the cops will just shoot black ppl for having a gun and nobody important will object

Not that much of a stretch to my completely unbiased eye


I don't think there's any legal issue with this that doesn't involve flying drones onto private property

(yet)


hell I'd settle for having police shootings get a mandatory investigation by an entity that is not the same police department in question

Yeah like having the police union investigate.

She had an Australian accent so they were worried she might be a minority due to talking funny.

i was talking about drones with cameras, not weapons. thank you for not arresting me, federal government

Given the rest of the quote it sounds more like she was worried about being that close to dangerous criminals honestly (although the lovable scamps eventually won her over)

Gringostar posted:

given that she defended them in court a bunch before hand not really

i'm not saying she's not poo poo or anything, just that i really don't think she was all excited to get slaves and poo poo but instead was like :what: and then did as the south does with slavery and just went along with it

it would have been way loving better for her to work on their cases pro-bono or something like that to get them further reduced sentences (or convictions overturned) but hind sight is her greatest enemy

that in addition to the fact that she went out of her way to visit black churches in the south while she was there you're going to have a really hard time convincing me she was a racist

I tried listening to this song out of curiosity after hearing about the proud boys for the first time and it was the most generic show-tune crap I'd ever heard in my life

then someone linked me the UHURU video and I couldn't watch more than five seconds for cringe reasons

if a white person tells me that they think its good that the president is deporting mexicans, how should i feel about that person

what about when a Mexican person tells you they think it's good that the president is deporting Mexicans?

one of the most depressing problems with racism and other forms of discrimination is the way they influence and distort the victim's own thinking to the point where they end up unconsciously buying into that very same discrimination, even against themselves

APCs and riot gear aren't free either and cops seem to have no trouble getting their hands on them

A lot of those APCs were actually gifted by the military. Riot gear may be preexisting so the cost is mostly irrelevant outside of upkeep. Cameras and storage (with multiple backups for up to at least a decade, I'd imagine) would be a new cost with recurring costs for camera upkeep and storage expansion if necessary.

What's the going cost of data storage, and resolution of those cameras as well as the cost of people who have to go through all of the footage to ensure the privacy of individuals or their sensitive information if/when the footage is made publicly available.
