Compton, CA: A masked, heavily-armed man wearing body armor jumped out of a SUV today to kidnap a local resident.
He forgot to put the vehicle in park, causing it to roll down the street damaging other cars. He jumped in the vehicle (which had no platess) and drove off without identifying himself.

When the lawsuits againt 50501 happen (and they will), I'm almost certain we'll learn that cops wrote their "peacekeeper guide".
Not only does it feature racist caricatures, it also parrots the discredited body language pseudoscience cops use to justify shooting minorities: "angry eyes", etc.

As long as they’re hiding their faces, badges and names we should stop calling them “federal agents.”
Call them masked goons or unidentified thugs or whatever, unless and until they provide proper ID.

Not an original point but worth saying again - there is not a single element in this picture that identifies any of these folks as law enforcement agents. No badges, no uniforms, no vests. Out of context it just looks like a bunch of random guys are kidnapping a mayoral candidate.

Yall really glossed over the fact that the victim was killed by armed security guard you hired.
And the fact that the shooting only happened because the security guard you hired decided to fire on a PoC who you then scapegoated and handed over to the police.

We're sad to announce that today a peaceful protestor was killed at the No Kings march.
To everyone who stayed calm, protected one another, and got people home safe, thank you. To the medics, safety team, and first responders, thank you. And to the protestor we lost: we won’t forget you.

So, local cops conducted a warrantless search of Luigi's backpack, realized they screwed up, admitted it on camera, put the backpack in a patrol car NOT sealed in an evidence bag (an 11 minute drive with no bodycam footage available), then searched the backpack again at the station and "found" a gun
![26. The officers continued their warrantless search through Mr. Mangione's backpack
at McDonald's even after he was removed from the restaurant by other officers and driven to the precinct. During this continued search at McDonald's, Patrolwoman Wasser recovered a gun magazine loaded with bullets. Now realizing she had made a potentially devastating mistake by
thoroughly searching the backpack of a murder suspect in a significant New York press case
without a warrant, she suddenly stated that she was searching through the backpack at McDonald's to make sure there "wasn't a bomb or anything in here" before putting the backpack in the car. The
falsity of that comment was made clear seconds later when another officer at McDonald's stated
"Now that we found that [i.e., the loaded magazine], let's just bring it back" to the precinct.
Suddenly not concerned about a "bomb," Patrolwoman Wasser placed all the items back into the
backpack and stopped searching. Patrolwoman Wasser repeated her comment that she was making](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:nywb5oene54cllowkfwouxzz/bafkreidr6h7nfhlc6gmfwmubtieiggbqmgm42khqtii2dazwfftvblmbxm@jpeg)

In LA we pronounce it "councilmember John Lee"
I recently learned there's a Korean word to describe a man who's extremely obsequious and ingratiating to those he sees as above him in positions of authority, and overly heavy handed and harsh to those he considers his subordinates.
The word literally translates to "dog man”.

people are comparing korean politicians who were jailed under US backed dictator chun doo-hwan/saw their friends die under martial law to US politicians who came to power because they went to the right dinner parties at harvard... bffr
'we should do what south korea did' we're not going to. our democrats are useless. in korea, even a member of the PPP climbed the wall at the national assembly (while blind!!) to oppose martial law and i do not think we have even a single democratic leader who would stick their neck out like that.
