"Progressive activist and media figure #JustinKanew sounded an alarm Tuesday after a Democratic district attorney shared a 'horrifying' account of law enforcement training in the GOP-controlled state of #Tennessee.

"On Saturday, an op-ed written by Democratic District Attorney Steven Mulroy of Memphis was published in USA Today detailing his experience attending a 'weeklong use-of-force training for law enforcement by #ForceScience, a private company hired by many law enforcement agencies across the country.'

A cop killed a baby — and people are defending it.

“Deadly force isn’t necessary in a #shoplifting situation. The #officers confirmed in their own statement that they had seen the ‘juvenile’ — they knew a baby was in that car [when they opened fire on it]. The way these small towns operate, we may never see the footage.”

"The federal agents led by an ICE officer who surrounded and fatally shot Renee Good in Minneapolis last month appear to have violated the agency’s policies regarding the use of force during nearly every step of the encounter, according to internal documents obtained by HuffPost."

Under #Trump, a Shift Toward ‘#AbsoluteImmunity’ for #ICE

Since the fatal #shooting of #ReneeGood in #Minneapolis, admin officials have defended the use of #DeadlyForce, which agency guidelines say should be a last resort.

…After #ReneeNicoleGood was shot, the #DOJ decided to forgo a #CivilRights investigation that would establish whether the #ICE officer’s use of #DeadlyForce was justified. That decision led several career prosecutors at the department’s civil rights division in Washington to resign in protest, MS Now reported Monday.

From section 1-16.200 of the DoJ Justice Manual:

“Firearms may not be discharged solely to disable moving vehicles…unless…no other objectively reasonable means of defense appear to exist, which includes moving out of the path of the vehicle.”

I’ve seen the video. That murdering nazi could have stepped backward if he thought he was gonna get hit.

The lizard looks like the famous russian actor, who played the russian policeman "Dukalis" in the russian detective series: "Streets of broken lights", "Deadly force" and "Cops: the chronicles of the Robbery Homicide Division"

The case regards the 2016 shooting death of Ashtian Barnes by a Harris County Constable. The Supreme Court's decision could have a lasting effect on cases across the country related to law enforcement's use of deadly force.

I asked Justin Trudeau’s Liberals why they broke a promise to ban three controversial police practices. Their answer says a lot

Someone needs to fix the dysfunctional relationship between the RCMP and the Canadian Government. Trudeau may not be the man to do it

Did #Kentucky Legalize #Shooting #HomelessPeople?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGDPuXZr364

Kentucky’s crazy #SaferKentuckyAct decriminalizes #deadlyforce against #homeless people.

The bill which goes into effect in July, allows #privateproperty owners to #shoot first and questions later if they believe that a trespasser or homeless person is going to commit a #felony or is attempting to “deposses” them.
The set of #toughoncrime laws also #criminalizes being homeless.

#Fortson’s death reflects a continuing pattern seen in countless other cases where innocent #BlackPeople have been killed by #police in their homes in recent years, often by officers responding to the wrong address or using #deadlyForce inappropriately.

The 78-page bill criminalizes #homelessness—and decriminalizes the use of #deadlyForce against individuals engaging in “unlawful camping.” Under this law, if a property owner believes an unhoused trespasser is attempting to commit a felony or attempting to “dispossess” them, they can shoot the #homeless person. The bill is a rewind to the failed policies of the 1990s.

#SanFrancisco "#killer #police #robots" plan put on hold - CBS News

San Francisco #supervisors voted Tuesday to put the brakes on a #controversial #policy that would have let police use robots for #deadlyForce, reversing course just days after their approval of the #plan generated fierce #pushback and #warnings about the #militarization and #automation of #policing.

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/killer-police-robots-san-francisco-plan-paused/

How can they expect people to be okay with the police getting robots to use deadly force? Data-collecting, snooping AI like Alexa is bad enough, how is an idea like Skynet not far behind here? This is garbage. https://www.engadget.com/san-francisco-police-seek-permission-for-its-robots-to-use-deadly-force-183514906.html #robots #robotics #ai #alexa #skynet #singularity #thesingularity #tech #futurism #deadlyforce #acab
