I don't think it's unreasonable to ask our mayors & city/municipal councils to cease giving more annual increases to police budgets without making body cams absolutely mandatory, with independent oversight. A bare minimum for public accountability & public transparency purposes.
I know that police won't be abolished in my lifetime. It would be helpful if local government stopped giving cops more taxpayers' monies, without forcing police departments to do bare minimum with wearing bodycams & not be able to personally choose when they're turned on/off - they need to be on while they're on shift.#ACAB #FreezePoliceBudgetRaises #NoMoreFreeRaises #AccountabilityBeforeFunds #InvestigateThePolice #PublicTransparency #PublicAccountability #ACAB #RottenBarrels #BadApples #BodyCamsOnCops #YYJpoli #PublicMoney #StopTheGravyTrain

In the midst of a global uprising against police brutality and systemic racism, No Visible Trauma examines a deeply troubled police department and reveals the devastating consequences of unchecked police brutality. Despite its relatively low crime rates, recent years have seen the Calgary Police Service shoot and kill more people than officers in any other Canadian city, and more than either the New York or Chicago police departments in 2018. Five years in the making, the film unravels the intertwined stories of three individuals who were the victims of extreme violence at the hands of police officers. From the kidnapping and beating of a young immigrant from Ghana, to the fatal shooting of an unarmed man during a “wellness check”, the film exposes a criminal justice system that fails to hold police officers accountable for their actions.

This doc focuses on CalgaryPD but the issues raised are happening across AB, in BC, Manitoba, Ontario & many more places across Canada. Canadian cops keep getting away with crimes & human rights abuses, daily, in Canada. Systemic racism is still a major problem across the country - no matter how much our governments try to whitewash their PR.

The Left’s Shameful Hypocrisy in the Government Shutdown: Anti-Worker Politics Disguised as Progressivism
The current government shutdown has exposed something deeply disturbing about the state of so-called progressivism in America. As the federal government teeters on the brink of chaos, there are voices, voices that claim to be on the left, calling for the shutdown to continue. They present it as some kind of moral or political strategy, a way to "punish" the administration or make a political statement. But what they fail—or refuse—to acknowledge is the human cost of this so-called […]
