“These are routine police encounters that escalate to a killing,” said Samuel Sinyangwe, a data scientist and policy analyst who founded Mapping Police Violence and provided 2022 data to the Guardian. “The reduction in the conversation around police violence does not mean that this issue is going away. What’s clear is that it’s continuing to get worse, and that it’s deeply systemic.”
Sinyangwe noted a Denver program where clinicians and medics have responded to thousands of mental health calls instead of police, and have not had to call police for backup. Some cities have restricted traffic stops for minor violations. And California has decriminalized jaywalking and other minor infractions that advocates say have no relation to public safety but are used to profile certain communities.

This might be a hot take but can Mrs.Flood just be Mrs.Flood who knows what a TARDIS is cause she lived in London all her life, where alien shit is happening at least once a year and is always accompanied by the doctor and a strange police box.
Yk the doc aren’t as subtle as they think they are, word gets around as to what the box actually is.
#believe me when i say id love nothing more for the Rani to come back#but i also love the idea that regular ppl have finally cought on to the fact that theres an alien running around with a police box#also we need fresh characters#not everything needs to be a niche call back#i do reserve the right to take back this statement if it is the rani though#doctor who#the doctor#this is my life now huh#the rani#dw spoilers#church on ruby road#dw season 1#dw#fifteenth doctor

"But the rest of the law remained intact and it continues to be used against Black Lives Matter protesters."
On this day, 18 January 2015, socialist Black Lives Matter protester Maile Hampton was arrested in Sacramento, California for “felony lynching”, for attempting to prevent a fellow demonstrator being arrested. The term “lynching” is commonly understood to refer to extrajudicial murders – usually in reference to the thousands of Black people murdered by racist whites. But in California law the term referred to attempting to break anyone out of police custody. Widespread outrage at the application of a law supposedly introduced to protect Black people from lynching against a Black person protesting against present-day lynching led to the charge being dropped and the law later being renamed to remove the word “lynching”. But the rest of the law remained intact and it continues to be used against Black Lives Matter protesters. https://www.facebook.com/workingclasshistory/photos/a.296224173896073/2189528917898913/?type=3

Please pray for the repose of the souls of all those who have passed today in car accidents. I passed by a motorcycle accident today (of which emergency personnel were already there) of a man who had been thrown from his vehicle and they were no longer performing medical intervention.
#no idea what happened but the man had been thrown from his motorcycle and my guess is it happened overnight#and so he was already very much gone#a part of the freeway that has no lighting because its in the middle of reservation land#police had just gotten there but they werent even attempting to resuscitate#and little traffic meant i ended up getting a full view as i slowed for flashing lights#low key traumatic day#i later saw a lost dog wandering around next to the freeway#a bit ol st bernard#but there was no way for me to convince my mom to stop and help#the past couple days have been a really rough time#anyways --#pr#prayer request

So, if Light never found the Death Note, would he still turn into a killer? I mean he would still follow his father and become a cop. Would he become like Vic Mackey?
That's a divisive question. I don't think he would naturally become a killer: when Light first used the Death Note he did so under the impression it was a prank, and he was throw-up-in-an-alley horrified after he confirmed the death had been his doing, like his first death was largely accidental. I don't think Light would ever cross the line into being a murderer by himself, because he's Light Yagami and he's the most perfect little boy, and perfect little boys don't murder people.
That said, I guess whether or not you think he'd end up working within the system to mete out vigilante justice as a police officer probably depends on whether or not you think he could actually physically kill someone without the separation of the Death Note? Light contemplates doing it a few times, but he's never actually forced to, and this is totally unsubstantiated, but I feel like Light doesn't have the guts to kill someone with a gun, with all the gore that entails. The heart attacks, which were Light's primary method of killing, are very act-of-God-ish, so it puts quite a lot of distance between himself and the people he kills.
I think if he were to end up a murderous cop, I think he'd first need to be in a situation where he was forced to kill (a la Garett Jacob Hobbs from Hannibal), I don't think Light is naturally a murderer just because it goes against his principles and his image of himself.
Thank you for the ask though anon! Probably not the best answer, but I'm not much a character-analyst lol
#death note#light yagami#yagami light#i would like to point out that lightd reservations around killing people are never#killing people is inherently bad#it is im not a murderer and also if i killed somone papa would be disappointed#the only thing i guess id point out id light killing somoene in a police setting#where everyone knows he did it and its not illegal#is a very different setup to death note#so its possible it wouldnt conflict too much with lights view of himself#and hed just kind of go on as normal#well light yagami normal#my asks

I need a completely rewritten teen wolf series with Derek Hale as the main character. I think it would heal me.
#we follow Derek from New York. Laura left for beacon hills. it’s been six years since he was back but he hasn’t heard from her#and hes going stir crazy waiting. he packs up and travels back. it’s almost too much immediately. he still can’t get a hold of Laura#he can’t resist going home. it’s like a natural pull that guides him back. all at once he’s 16 again. staring at the wreckage of his life#deputy stilinski is sherrif now. it’s reassuring in the slightest that the police force seems to have moved on from how corrupt it was#he catches her scent and it’s putrid. bile catches in his throat. he seeks it out. still in denial to what he knows it means.#when he finds Laura it’s like the world ends all over again. he can’t stand to see her like this. he gives her a proper burial.#the best he can do at least#he visits Peter. he’s not the man Derek remembers- so full of fire and cunning. their relationship may have been strained at times.#often Derek felt more like Eve being swayed by the snake than a normal friendship#but this isn’t the sharp tongued uncle who guided him. this is a broken shell. all that remained of his family. he was so lost.#22 but he barely knew how to function without his family- his pack paving the way#Laura handled everything. she got the apartment. she made sure they had food. Derek looks back and feels so useless#he was so lost in his grief. Laura must of felt the same way but she never let them drown in it#she made sure he got his GED. even got him to enroll in community college classes.#he took them online. he never was able to warm up to people the same way. he used to be so full of life. now he just wanted to be left alone#he studied English. never finished his degree. doesn’t look like he ever will now. he can’t go back to Laura and his shared home.#can’t bare to see another shell of a home#he vents to the vacant audience of Peter and his cold fixed eyes#Derek leaves. he wants to promise he’ll return soon#but promises feel costly these days#he decides to go back to the reserve. maybe he can find some clue as to what happened to Laura#someone lured her here. someone who knew them and their history here#his mind went to the worst. Kate. why would she go through the trouble six years later. why wait so long.#Derek couldn’t stomach the thought of facing her. he focused on the woods. the scents were all over the place.#clearly multiple people had been through here recently. two scents were much stronger. Derek follows them#but when he hears the crunch of leaves he realizes why the scents are so strong. they’re still here#he ducks behind some trees. listening in on their conversation. but an echo of their scent catches his attention#he spots an inhaler on the ground. he puts two and two together and swipes it from the leaves.#he comes out once they’re closer. tossing over the inhaler- he figures they’ll leave. dumb kids messing around in the woods#he reminds them this is private property. though that may not be true anymore. he recognizes the scent of a new beta. interesting.

“The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out … without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable.” — H. L. Mencken

OK So Context
I kind of progressively lost my mind in college. What with the learning about the specifics of what is going on and how it relates to what has happened in the past. -and subsequently took the time to develop a series of presentations about why the US sucks.
Specifically, the interventions in Latin American, just the astoundingly predatory nature of American Capitalism domestically and The Police, like, as a concept.
Fast forward to the Summer of 2022 and I realized that working with an editor and publishing a book is hard and expensive but its measured in thousands not tens of thousands so I committed to doing that at some point in my life with this project, and began working on adapting the presentations with more research and more connections between these different expressions of White Supremacy.
I let the research balloon. There's just so much.
Anyway, the whole social media campaign thing was to distract me from pinning all that down. -and last month one of the members of my subreddit, u/acebush1, self immolated in the time it took to get around to responding to his most recent comment. That made this all very real. The US' support for Israel and it's foundation as a settler colonial state are critically relevant.
Right, so,. Last month someone asked me how to buy the book and that was the thing I had said to myself would mark the transition back to a writing and research focus rather than just research and learning social media.
Site is up. Its an email submission form with a set your own price stripe link.

Will's dad calls him Billy
#It drives him nuts but it was either between billy or willie so he went along with billy#yeah its irritating but it reminds him of his dads hand on his head ruffling his hair#it reminds him of times when his dad would sit with him and attempt to help him with homework#when he graduated the police academy and his dad came down and they both pretended he wasnt crying#rough foreheard kisses from chapped lips and hoarse voices#it just gives him so much nostalgia#He makes Hannibal promise to never call him that because its reserved for his daddy#it makes him feel young#brb making myself cry#hannibal#nbc hannibal#will graham#hannibal nbc#hannibal headcanons

Cop City moves to quash FOIA via UGA
“If a private entity is contracting with or performing functions on behalf of the government, then its records are subject to public records requests,” Ramsingh said about the case. “The entire purpose of the [Atlanta police] foundation is to support the Atlanta police department, so it would be hard to find records that wouldn’t be subject to open records law.” https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/article/2024/may/17/university-of-georgia-cop-city-lawsuit

One senior officer, who expressed concern at the existence of rape myths in their force, told academics: “We massively pre-judge the credibility of the victim. We investigate the victim more than the offence itself.”

You've heard of mansplaining, now get ready for: dadsplaining!
Example: you're filling out paperwork and your dad sits next to you and tells you the answers to questions like: what is your name and last name (he also helps you spell it), when is your birthday, when did you graduate high scool etc.
#this actually happened tk my sister a few years back#she lost her ID card and had to go to the police station early in the morning to aply for a new one#my dad woke me up in like 7 am to go with them in case they needed help with tech stuff (finding the necessary forms online)#he ended up figuring it out by himself and he was very proud#and then went to help out my sister with the paperwork and did what i described above#it reminded me of how captain holt in b99 always informed his husband of his full name when they talked on the phone#and when they were making reservations and holt told kevin how to spell his name#anyways afterwards my dad went to buy coffee and a tiropita as a thank you for the officer thay helped us and fought with my sister#bc she didn't want to bring them to the officer#before he bought the stuff he asked us if we wanted anything and i asked for an iced tea which he forgot :(#so not only was my presence useless i also didn't get anything out if it#but seeing my dad and sister fill out paperwork was pretty funny and i will forever cherish that memory#shitpost#text#crispy talks

"INDIANS BAN MOUNTIES FROM THEIR FALL FAIR," Toronto Star. October 16, 1933. Page 1. --- Detachment of Three Officers to Present Themselves at Moraviantown ---- Special to The Star London, Ont.. Oct. 16. - Word comes from Moraviantown that the Indians are in defiant insurrection against the Royal Canadian Mounted police. This afternoon the Indian fair opened there for a four-day show and nailed to the masthead is a formally adopted resolution in which President Emmerson Snake and his fellow directors declare the place closed to the "Mounties."
Inasmuch as one of the routine duties of the police is to visit and supervise all Indian fairs, including Moraviantown, a detachment of three officers will present themselves this afternoon and if necessary storm the bulwarks.
The trouble is an aftermath of last week's investigation of charges against the Indian agent
