Morgen gibt's #OberligaHamburg #auswärtsfahrt ♥️
#altona93 (#SayUhAhAltona!) ist zu Gast bei #ConcordiaHamburg!
Um 19 Uhr ist Anpfiff.
Bin mal gespannt, wie es läuft, nachdem wir 3 Spiele etwas geschwächelt haben. (Ja, #jammernaufhohemniveau - aber logisch, wenn 4/5 der Mannschaft #RamadanFasten! Respekt deshalb! Trotzdem!)
Jedenfalls bin ich noch viel mehr gespannt, ob es diesmal auch wieder ein beachtliches Aufgebot an Staatsmacht aka #cops gibt. Warum auch immer.
#Jenfeld das heiße Pflaster 😂

#Cops Tracked An Alleged Tesla Arsonist Using The Suspect’s #Car #WiFi
Cops used tower dumps to track not only suspect’s phone but also #vehicle. Detectives asked Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T to send information on all connecting devices to six relevant towers. They saw a Verizon BlueLink onboard Wi-Fi system had pinged two of the towers. According to a complaint against the eventual suspect investigators believe the BlueLink was inside his Hyundai.

"#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.

Defenders in #Appalachia Against #MountainValleyPipeline Avoided #FelonyCharges

"Initially we were charged with #conspiracy. The real conspiracy is between the #prosecutors and the #judges, between the #cops and the #corporations."

By #AppalachiansAgainstPipelines, #CensoredNews, March 3, 2025

"Last Tuesday, 12 pipeline fighters had court in Giles County for charges resulting from three different actions against the Mountain Valley Pipeline in 2023 and 2024 in and around the #JeffersonNationalForest, including one site where #MVP was drilling through the mountain under the #AppalachianTrail.

"Eleven of the defendants accepted non-cooperating plea deals -- all of them were facing absurd felony charges, including
felony abduction and felony 'unauthorized use of a vehicle.' In the end, they plead to misdemeanor charges and there were NO felony convictions. They were sentenced to community service, probation, and to pay restitution. The court room was PACKED all day long with supporters!"
