By the way I know Empires S2 is a silly little minecraft roleplay, but for those who are unaware and in America:
The police genuinely CANNOT do what Jimmy did to Shelby in his newest Empires S2 episode. Without a warrant, unless there is a visible crime in sight inside of your house, they need a warrant. DO NOT LEAVE YOUR HOUSE. As soon as you step outside you CAN be arrested.
Stay safe y'all ❤️

Since 2018, cops in America have killed 5,668 citizens and most people either don't know or are not saying anything about it. Why?

“Americans can’t protest like X country because the crowd will turn them in and US police have a long history of targeting activists long after the event is over” true and correct concern
“Americans can’t protest like X country because if we did that here we’d be shot by the police” extremely ignorant ass take.
People catch extremely heavy charges here and are prone to getting turned in by shitheels who think anything spicy is a psyop to make the movement look bad. It’s true in most places there isn’t the kind of solidarity and cohesive movement needed to pop off like france or chile or mexico or or or or
But to pretend US cops are the only ones who unleash deadly violence or are even the MOST likely to unleash deadly violence on protesters is some absolute head-in-the-sand denial of reality. The US fuckin sucks but acting like the US police force is The Most Evil Police where no other country has it like us is just American exceptionalism.

"Lieut." Michael Byrd on why he shot and killed Ashli Babbitt. He goes on to say things like : "Based on my Training, I did what was appropriate"; "I followed my training...."; "I spent countless Years preparing for such a moment"; "I did my Job"; "I was taking a tactical Stance" and "I didn't even realize how loud I was screaming people to get back".
FUCKING LIAR!!!!
He wasn't even opening his mouth! That can clearly be seen in this Video.
Even if what he said is all true, the countless years of Training, was to shoot people..?
When you plan to fatally shoot someone, the least one needs to do, is TAKE A WARNING SHOT AT THEIR FEET/LEGS!!
I am no Police. A FUCKING NOBODY, like me, knows this. "Countless Years of Training" to save people, yet this stupid Bitch WANTEDLY KILLED A PERSON!!
White-skinned or black-skinned, all American Cops are killers.
FUCK THE POLICE!!!

captain america: the winter soldier is about american policing, actually, i’ve decided. 
what do you do when the nazis and white supremacists have infiltrated your law enforcement agency to the point that they’re integral to its operation and indistinguishable from the other officers agents?  what do you do when, even though YOU’RE good and you know good people who work here now and you believe in the mission, you know that the bad guys have worked here since the beginning.  when, in fact, the bad guys helped shape it and make it what it is today?
you burn the whole fucking thing down.  you gut it.  you expose, disarm, and put away the nazis and the white supremacists and the violent extremists just in it for kicks.  you shut down the organization and leave its heavy mutilated carcass to rot.

"When the U.S. Department of Justice published a report opens in a new tab Aug. 10 that documented “widespread constitutional violations, discriminatory enforcement, and culture of retaliation” within the Baltimore Police Department (BPD), there was rightly a general reaction of outrage.
But what hasn’t received as much attention is where Baltimore police received training on crowd control, use of force and surveillance: Israel’s national police, military and intelligence services.
Baltimore law enforcement officials, along with hundreds of others from Florida, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, California, Arizona, Connecticut, New York, Massachusetts, North Carolina, Georgia, Washington state as well as the DC Capitol police have all traveled to Israel for training. Thousands of others have received training from Israeli officials here in the U.S.
......
These trainings put Baltimore police and other U.S. law enforcement employees in the hands of military, security and police systems that have racked up documented human rights violations for years. Amnesty International, other human rights organizations and even the U.S. Department of State have cited Israeli police for carrying out extrajudicial executions and other unlawful killings, using ill treatment and torture (even against children), suppression of freedom of expression/association opens in a new tab including through government surveillance opens in a new tab, and excessive use of force against peaceful protesters."
-This blog post ran on Amnesty International USA’s blog on Aug 25, 2016, authored by Edith Garwood, Amnesty International USA Country Specialist covering Israel, the Occupied Palestinian Territories and the State of Palestine.

For what it’s worth, American cops sure are scared of the average citizen. So scared that if one single citizen has a knife or gun, they gotta call a backup of about five or seven cops, for just one citizen. Why act macho if you can’t handle one “ant” yourself? It’s the equivalent of calling for numerous other guys to help you kill one single insect when you have the equipment and legal means to crush one “ant” with a single finger.
All I can imagine with this scenario is a bunch of grown men circled around one single ant and screaming, “Kill it! Kill it!” like a bunch of housewives terrified of spiders.

Imagine thinking that someone “not being a saint” can retroactively justify an undue death, or otherwise strip them of their rights to life and due process

Even assuming there are "good cops" the entire system is bugged. We hand people lethal weapons and say go protect the community. The job description may not say "kill those you deem a threat" but the job training certainly does.

thinking about sleazy cop!price who abuses his power to pull you over, just so he can have a feel of you <3
he recognises your car the minute it passes him on the road back into town, zooming past him doing something minor like five miles per hour over the limit. usually he’d turn a blind eye to it, but it’s been a slow night, hardly anything to get johns adrenaline going.
so he pulls out of his spot beside the side of the road, doing a u-turn, catching up behind you. before switching on his red and blues, and his siren, signalling you to pull over. almost instantly you comply, pulling to the side, not to his surprise of course, he already knows how pretty and compliant of the law you are — his two favourite things.
your window is already down by the time he reaches the drivers side, a flashlight in his hand, shining it in to see your pleading, worried eyes peering up at a him. fuck, he swears his cock twitches just at that. but, then you speak, all innocent and coy.
“is there a problem, officer?”
officer. to him, it’s like liquid gold coming from those lips of yours. he does consider just letting you off with a brief warning, but it’s a small town and he doesn’t miss the way you hold his gaze from across the bar, and he certainly doesn’t ignore the rumours that the local barmaid has a little crush on the local chief.
“step out the car for me, please” his tone comes out a little sterner than he wanted it to. but it makes you resist any hesitation hearing the seriousness in his voice. he steps aside, allowing you to climb out and become face to face with him.
“chief, have i—”
“come with me,” he gently grabs you by the elbow, leading you to his car behind yours, placing you right infront of it.
“i’m not entirely sure why this is necess—”
“sh,” he interrupts, his grip leaving your arm as he moves behind you. you feel his mouth brush against your ear, “you got anythin’ on you that can harm me?”
his voice is low and hoarse, vibrating against the skin of your ear, and it makes the hairs stand up on your neck. you shake your head cautiously, still baffled by whatever has gotten you in a policeman’s custody.
“good.”
instantly, his hand finds the back of your head, pressuring your front half down, your cheek pressed to the bonnet of his marked vehicle, rendering you speechless. however, you let him move you freely. his boot kicks out your feet, spreading your legs apart, before he’s grabbing your hands and placing them on the cars surface either side of your head.
he presses himself against you, straight away noticing the firmness of something against your ass. “you know, there’s never any reason to speed,” he grips against your hips, patting up and down against your clothing.
“its dangerous. for everyone else…more so yourself,” he shifts, beginning to pat down at your thighs, giving the area near the side of your ass a firm squeeze. “and i’d hate to see somethin happen to you, love.”
he strokes and squeezes up and down the same areas more than once, whilst you’re lay there feeling helpless. he knows he should be feeling guilty, using his position of power to fulfill a small fraction of his fantasy, but he doesn’t. it only makes his cock ache harder.
“you gonna do it again?”
he presses himself against you again, this time leaning over you, his hands right beside yours on the bonnet. his head dipped towards the side of your face that’s visible. you slightly shake your head.
“words, girl. use ‘em.”
“n-no. i won’t do it again, chief.”
“good.”
there’s a beat of silence. you, lay confused at the speeding accusation and, how this interaction has somehow filled you with a feeling of arousal. and john, who’s just bathing in the moment of being stuck to you and the way you fit so well underneath him.
“you’re free to go,” he rips through the quiet, pulling himself off you and stepping towards his drivers side, leaving you to peel yourself off the hood, “but next time, i wont be so lenient.”

I’ve had some dicey situations with cops, but the scariest one was a bunch of friends/colleagues and I were going to a rally and we got swarmed by a dozen cops on our way there. The cops stopped us because we seemed ‘suspicious.’ They circled around us so no matter what way you turned, there was a cop. We tried to start causal, they immediately said it was suspicious we were wearing masks. Cloth masks. During COVID. EARLY in COVID. I could feel the tension in the group, waiting for it to escalate. I was almost giddy with adrenaline.
They threw out wild speculation. We asked if we were being detained or if we were free to go. They dodged the question. We asked again--can we leave? They said no. We asked why, they wouldn’t answer. They singled out the one man of color in the group and kept touching him, wanting to search his belongings. They wanted to piss him off, escalate the situation. We had to be calm. We asked why we were detained. They wouldn’t answer. We tried to leave--slowly, walking, no sudden movement--they stopped us. We spoke softly, in even tones, repeating legal language we all were familiar with. Why am I being detained? Am I free to go? They wanted to see ID. We said no. They wanted to search our belongings. We said no. I do not consent to a search. They wouldn’t let us leave. They kept asking questions. Where were you coming from? What are you doing here (in a public park), why do you have a bag? Why won’t you let us see your ID if you have nothing to hide? Why can’t I go in your purse if you don’t have any weapons?
We got pat downs “for (their) protection.” They didn’t find anything to keep us. There was nothing for them to find--not that it would stop them if they wanted to keep playing this game. Not that an escalation would be warranted if they found anything on us. Are we free to go? Why am I being detained? What legal cause do you have to detain us? Arrest us or let us go.
After a good 15-20 minutes, they let us leave. All of us were lawyers, law students, or folks with legal backgrounds. Some us even legal observers. In a group. And it was STILL extremely difficult to stay calm, to not take bait, to not deck a cop who is trying everything he can to provoke you, while circled by a dozen cops inching closer from all sides. We had the best case scenario for preparation for an encounter like this and it still wasn’t easy. We *had* nothing to hide, had broken no law, had done nothing ‘wrong’--and it was still hard to keep calm, keep the cops calm, and be able to leave unharmed.
Imagine what the situation is like for people alone, for people way less able to be calm, for people with zero knowledge of their local laws or rights or what they can and cannot do. Imagine if any one of those cops had drawn his gun. How calm would you be then? We were lucky we had our background, we were lucky we could outlast their behavior, we were lucky that enforcing our rights was eventually enough to make them back down.
Just as easily they could take their chances and just go through our shit, could slap cuffs on us and sort out what to charge us with later. You do not even have to commit a crime to be hounded. Our suspicion was proximity to a rally. Folks get profiled like this just for existing. Black people get profiled like this for existing. Black men. And they do not all have the fortune to be in this mess with trusted colleagues, with legal backgrounds, and a painful amount of patience and determination to keep a cool head when everything in you is shouting ‘‘fight, run.”
Please consider this when you read about someone’s behavior at a traffic stop, or walking down the street, or any scenario where you decide that the person should have done something different when met with police. That shit is hard as hell, and the cops want it to be, and you’re doing their work for them by insisting otherwise. ‘‘He should have complied” “he should have stayed calm” “he shouldn’t have run”, the cops can do whatever the fuck they want, and we are all at their mercy. With the absolute most protections, it still comes down to how bad the police want to fuck you over--what risk is worth it to them.
Yes, don’t talk to cops. Invoke your right to remain silent when you’re interrogated. Ask to leave if you’re detained. But you can follow the script and still end up fucked, so don’t ever pretend the process is anything but difficult and scary.

An interesting article from MSNBC, arguing that since the police in Texas were unable to prevent the Robb Elementary School shooter, it is unlikely that armed teachers would do the same. 
But even this article misses a key point: The proposal of arming teachers is an admission that the police-- and the Republican Party, it would seem-- cannot control crime. The Victorian British visionary, Robert Peel, responsible for our modern police forces, defined the success of the police as being the absence of crime and disorder. In other words, the police rushing in to prevent crime is not proof of success. The police succeed when there is no crime and disorder because their presence deters criminals and reassures the public.  
Saddling teachers with the additional responsibility of protecting children from mass shooters is a de facto admission that crime is out of control in America, that the police are incapable of preventing it, and that the government refuses to tackle it. Hence why, in the face of continued atrocities, no meaningful gun control legislation has been passed. 
Teachers are not police officers or security guards. Not a single teacher in America became one so that they could shoot a potential mass murderer-- assuming they even have the capacity to do so. Instead, teachers are being forced to adopt the role of a police officer because of the ineptitude of the current police force, intelligence services, and the government. And both teachers and children are paying the price, literally with their lives. 
I know that millions of Americans see the utter insanity of such proposals, and I wholeheartedly agree with their grief and rage that such atrocities keep on occurring with no change in policy. I remember being stunned and disgusted that even after families of the Sandy Hook victims came to the government a decade ago to push for gun control, the bill was defeated. Now, yet more children have been murdered at the hands of another psychopath with an AR-15 and high-capacity magazines. 
Some people claim that nobody should politicise these murders, but defending human life is not policitisation. Demanding that the police do their job and eradicate crime and disorder is just a basic requirement of a civilised society. Demanding that the government pass legislation to decrease the likelihood of such atrocities in the future is nothing more than common sense. We have gun owners in the UK, yet the number of mass shootings is virtually nil, thanks to legal reforms. 
You’ll notice that British teachers do not carry guns, and our children do not do active shooter drills in class. Yet I have seen various testimonies from American parents and children describing such insane procedures. All such drills demonstrate that the criminals are in charge, and the police don’t come to help until it’s too late. Shameful.
