Who else is in favor of 1312% tariffs on all the #copaganda films and tv series? Especially if they are from the so-called US.
Whenever I see newspapers feature a photo of a police badge or car as the illustration for a crime, I wonder if it's because the police did it or because they were useless in preventing it.

France, the US and the UN for theft and interventions in that country -

"The companies got Monopoly on calls at each jail through contracts they negotiated with sheriffs. By locking in high exclusive rates, they made hundreds of millions of dollars each year from the denial of human contact."
—Copaganda, by Alec Karakatsanis
One of my favorite blogs was Alec Karakatsanis' “#Copaganda." He's just finished a new book and I encourage everyone to purchase a copy.
There's a very long history of the police, police unions, and the state manipulating the press to make you think that cops solve crimes (they don’t), that they protect you (they protect property), and that they are indispensable (many cities such as #Durham, NC have success with unarmed response teams for non-emergency calls).

Aaron Gunn criticized over posts that residential school system did not constitute genocide
COMMENT: Gunn behind far-right anti-homeless, addiction-demonizing copaganda/propaganda film "Vancouver is Dying," backed by Lululemon billionaire Chip Wilson, who helped elect ABC Vancouver/Ken Sim, & backs far-right Take Back Alberta
"Heikkilä vierastaa ajatusta etälamauttimien käytön kieltämisestä mielenosoituksissa. Hänen mukaansa keltaisen etälamauttimen esille ottaminen rauhoittaa usein tilanteen."
Poliisi näköjään pyrkii maalaamaan kaikki mielenosoitukset mellakoinniksi, joissa väkivalta mielenosoittajia vastaan on OK.

The paper should be free to print what it wants, but I am also free to point out that this claim in the editorial is...not how policing works.
Vaughan HVAC store broken into for 3rd time in 5 months, police say | CBC News
Why "police say"?
Didn't the store owners know?
Media love to link all crime reports directly to cops, right in the headline, when it adds no value.
I wouldn't care if they said "police fail to stop break-ins".
> An HVAC store in Vaughan, Ont., has been broken into for a third time by thieves who smash their way in, grab what they can, and quickly take off, police say.
Explosives team called in for police incident that has closed bridge connecting Kelowna and West Kelowna
A "police incident"? I assumed the cops had damaged the bridge.
Why do the media have to put "police" in headlines whenever they show up.
(CBC has changed the headline since my RSS reader scraped it)
https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/kelowna-bennett-bridge-closure-1.7442622?cmp=rss
> The William R. Bennett Bridge connecting West Kelowna to Kelowna reopened Monday afternoon after being completely closed for almost 11 hours due to a police incident involving a distraught man.

The Enduring Power of Copaganda
An unprecedented new immigration detention law and the propaganda behind it
> The Laken Riley Act is unprecedented in modern U.S. history. The version that passed the House requires the federal DHS bureaucracy to build billions of dollars in new infrastructure to cage any undocumented person *even accused* of petty theft, shoplifting, or several other property crimes. The mandatory indefinite detention provisions apply to anyone even arrested or charged—something we’ve never seen before

Eine wenig aufwändige Recherche von 5min Dauer hat Folgendes ergeben:
Es gab bereits 2015, 2019 und 2023 Petitionen, die ein #Böllerverbot aka #BöllerCiao zum Inhalt hatte. (Bild1)
https://epetitionen.bundestag.de/epet/petuebersicht/suche.abgeschlossen.$$$.a.u.batchsize.10.page.0.html?_charset_=UTF-8&text=b%C3%B6ller&page=1
Alle drei Petitionen kamen nicht mal in die Nähe des notwendigen Quorums von 30K Mitzeichnungen., interssierten quasi "keine Sau". (Bild 2)
Eine Petition (von 2023) liegt in der aktuellen Legislaturperiode, d.h. eine erneute Petition zum Thema ist erst nach der #BTW25 im ein paar Wochen zulässig.
Fazit: Alle drei Petitionen waren trotz unterschiedlicher Qualität in ihrer Argumentation gemeinwohlorientierter, als die populäre Privat-Petition einer Polizeigewerkschaft, die vor allem ihre Partikularinteressen formulierte.
Prognose: Das sich ab Februar öffnende Zeitfenster für eine erneute und ggfs. erfolgreiche Bundestagspetition zum Thema wird von keiner Berufsorganisation ausgenutzt werden, denn dazu haben nur natürliche Personen das Recht, und keine PR-Abteilungen, die ein Thema mit #Copaganda für sich einnehmen.
Es kommt also wieder auf mündige Bürger+innen (ob in Uniform oder nicht) an einen demokratischen Prozess und nicht nur eine PR-Kampagne anzustoßen.
Wir dürfen gespannt sein.
Boy, 1960s #Dragnet and #Adam12 sure are straight up #Copaganda and we all just lapped it up
I do enjoy seeing all the cool old cars on the street though
