⬆️ >> Yes! There's always that danger in a society so openly #racist. I am a PoC myself. That's why I linked to #CivicSolidarity#Cops kept #protesters safe! #BlackMastodon

This is a #MoralMoment#CoryBooker

We need a broad coalition with civic solidarity, not just solidarity within racial or other groups targeted by haters.

If #Trump and #Musk have riled up SO MANY AMERICANS in just the first 100 days, they've #AwakenedASleepingGiant ✊

⬆️ >>>> The protests were not perfect. Anecdotally and observationally, they were very #white—not exactly representative of the #Democratic coalition.

>> Might that be because #POC are more likely to be arrested than #white people during protests?

"#US police are operating a co-ordinated scheme to seize as much of the public’s cash as they can"

"[...] in the eyes of thousands of cash-hungry #cops you’re a rolling ATM."

The article ends with some travel advice.

My advice: avoid the USA if you're not located there for a couple of decades.

CBCANALYSIS | Travelling to the U.S.? Beware the police cash-grab: Neil Macdonald | CBC NewsAcross America, law enforcement officers - from federal agents to state troopers right down to sheriffs in one-street backwaters - are operating a vast, co-ordinated scheme to grab as much of the public’s cash as they can, writes Neil Macdonald.

@ProPublica #Cops can't be trusted in any way, shape or form. Every cop must have their body cam video and audio enabled at all times, even in the bathroom. Every cop must keep their firearms unloaded and stored in a lock box in the trunk. Every cop convicted of violations of law must forfeit their pensions. Every cop cannot be trusted, ever.

Arresting officers realize they can lie to secure confessions. Senior officers know they can exaggerate to lobby for bigger budgets. For some, a form of “noble cause corruption” is at play—a sense that any means will justify the ends of securing social order and making sure the bad guys go to jail.
