We’re the Only Ones Unsatisfying Enough

“Georgia’s protections for property owners in civil forfeiture cases are already some of the weakest in the nation, and they were at risk of being watered down even further by the lower courts. But today’s decision ensures that law enforcement still must satisfy basic pleading requirements by alleging each element of a crime and the facts it believes indicate the crime was committed before it can seek to permanently forfeit someone’s property”… [More]

I thought that’s what convictions were for.

I’ve seen Leviathan, with unlimited resources, try to destroy a family by freezing their ability to pay for adequate defense. (Note: Many of the links on that page can only be accessed via the Wayback Machine.)

Sorry, fellas– no Leathermans for you.

We’re the Only Ones ‘Established, Reasonable, and Generally Accepted’ Enough

Once they were outside her residence, Griffin’s children watched her “during her naked detention for a substantial amount of time,” the lawsuit says, adding that her hands were zip-tied or handcuffed behind her back. Though she objected, Griffin remained naked in the presence of multiple law enforcement officers, the suit says. The deputies eventually placed a tank top over her head, “providing partial covering but not concealment of her genitalia,” the suit says. [More]

Standard “good faith” protocol…? Are we really sure we want to beef up qualified immunity, Mr. President?

It’s not an excuse, but ya gotta wonder, what are the odds of this happening twice to her and what has she done to draw attention to herself…?

We’re the Only Ones Coercive Enough

“Mentally torturing a false confession out of Tom Perez, concealing from him that his father was alive and well, and confining him in the psych ward because they made him suicidal, in my 40 years of suing the police I have never seen that level of deliberate cruelty by the police,” said Jerry Steering, Perez’s attorney in Newport Beach.

These are who Trump wants to beef up qualified immunity for?

Back the Blue! Murica!

We’re the Only Ones Diverse, Equitable, and Inclusive Enough

A Portsmouth police officer charged with driving under the influence in Hampton reached 100 miles per hour on the interstate and later kicked an officer during her arrest, according to court documents. Carmen Johnson also allegedly made remarks about the arresting officer’s race and commented about a “dislike of white people,” police allege in the court documents. [More]

She’s a victim of coicumstance…

What a thing to arm and set upon the normals…

Do You Come from a Land Down Under?

Perth killer of mother and daughter would have had fewer guns under proposed laws [More]

I know we’re not supposed to ask this, but how many would you need?

And I wonder how WA’s police minister, Paul Papsmear, would react to: “This individual, sadly, was a fit and proper person, right up until the time he committed that act and he was a law-abiding police official right up until he wasn’t”… ?

Disarm or Die

The North Carolina Court of Appeals has thrown out the conviction of a homeless man who kept guns in his car while seeking kidney treatment at UNC Hospitals in 2021. Appellate judges agreed the state law used to convict Joseph John Radomski III unconstitutionally restricted his Second Amendment rights. [More]

So, who was the @$$hole “Only One,” and what does that tell us about talking to police?

And they couldn’t find one juror to do the right thing?

As an aside, the FIJA folks need to create ballot measures to demand jury instructions be changed. Even if they don’t succeed, it will spread the word and awaken citizens to this power most don’t know they have.

We’re the Only Ones Smoking Enough

The St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department says it has launched an internal investigation after an officer was caught on video lighting a cigar during an arrest. The video, initially shared by the Voice Of The People STL organization, shows an officer lighting a cigarette while a suspect is kept down on the ground. [More]

Someone want to explain the difference to “real reporter” Joey Schneider?

The casualness with which these bastards assault citizens reminds me of that ATF JBT who pulled a George Floyd knee-to-neck maneuver on a LARPer while his buddy made a phone call with his hand in his pocket.

What, you don’t remember that one?
