Attorneys for McMichaels don't want Ahmaud Arbery called a 'victim' in court

Lawyers for Gregory and Travis McMichael, the father and son charged with murder in the death of Ahmaud Arbery, are asking that Arbery not be called a "victim" in the trial because they say it would be prejudicial, according to one of several motions they filed in the last days of December.

DC police made far more arrests at the height of Black Lives Matter protests than during the Capitol clash

The Capitol Police were complicit. Those found to have assisted the insurgents, opening in barrier, and posing should be imprisoned. Enacting violence against Black people is a mandate of Policing. It only ends with their disbanding in each and every state.

It's a little deeper than that, what happened was a planned action, paid actors for political theatre, and it's not the first time lives were lost in this kind of crossfire. Be assured, our white asses draped in a flag would have been shot on sight attempting what happened, the people involved were allowed to do it because there is an agenda at stake, the ones involved were sought out, and it's almost comical having the president watching it on TV as entertainment while it's happening, because that's exactly what you'd expect out of modern politicians, while 5, 6 people die at the hands of metaphorical manipulation.

This pool isn't deep strife. The transparency of what happened, what has happened, and what is happening isn't a function a boldness so much as laziness and entitlement. There's no great conspiracy. Organized hate groups aren't new nor is their membership in military and law enforcement. Trump isn't their first mascot either. He just happened to make it the nation's highest office.

Which legitimizes all of this nonsense. And it is nonsense.

The Republican mandate as long as I have been alive has been gutting Federal powers to promote wealth. That's largely been accomplished. And the consequences are thusly being experienced by the nation. What's the mystery?

Off-Duty Police Officers Investigated, Charged With Participating In Capitol Riot

More than two dozen off-duty officers attended the pro-Trump rally. Many celebrated on social media at the time. But now they could face federal charges and find themselves out of a job.

I've seen far more racism on Long Island, New York than Raleigh, North Carolina.

The Los Angeles Police Department has launched an internal investigation after an officer reported that a photo of George Floyd with the words “You take my breath away” in a Valentine-like format was being “passed around” by other officers, Chief Michel Moore said Saturday.

Moore said the officer who made the complaint is set to be interviewed Monday, and the department’s goal is to determine exactly where and how the image may have come into the workplace, online or otherwise, and who may have been involved.

If the department confirms officers were circulating the image, 'people will find my wrath,' LAPD Chief Michel Moore said.

After everything it is still a joke to a majority of them. Nothing will change until there is a complete overhaul of law enforcement in this country.

I know some good ones. Guy I grew up with seems like a good cop. Couple of really high speed ones I know from BJJ. Hell, we all know Monson. Problem is you’re always going to have your shit birds. They need better ways of weeding them out. Tough job. I sure as hell wouldn’t want it.

No bad apples, just apples. I know it sounds like I'm blaming police. I'm not. I'm blaming the institution of policing in America. You can take a perfectly ethical, trained, and non-cognitively biased individual, feed him or her into the policing system and produce an executioner. Not out of outright malice but out of a fear.

This is the misconception.

We're actively creating environments that JUSTIFY the suspicion of deadly threats as a nation. And lets be honest here - we then thrust low-skill labor individuals to police those areas having a) a deficiency of education and training themselves, b) wide jurisdiction authority to act with deadly force, c) little to no oversight, d) litigative protection and outright impunity, and e) no tangible investment in the communities they serve.

Policing in America needs to be dismantled. It needs to be rebuilt from the root up with the same level of investment we've reserved for the military. It's a racist system designed to insulate the wealthy from potential harm. It's a system built on fears both rational and irrational with far too much military proliferation in terms of tactics and arms.

The police in America are NOT an extension of a free country. Because America is NOT a free country. America is a police state.
