@NMBA Truth. I know & so do hundreds of citizens they've illegally detained & arrested & assaulted & they committed multiple crimes in front of many witnesses - laughing about never getting consequences, etc. - in front of citizens & journalists.

#BCNDP are responsible for creating these #DomesticTerrorists. Both the #BCgovernment & #GovernmentOfCanada put taxpayers on the hook for paying millions to these #lawbreaking thugs with badges. No ID, refuse to identify themselves, wear fascist patches on their uniforms & get away with a lot of brutal shit because of qualified immunity & corrupted government protection. We seriously need to #RemoveQualifiedImmunity.

#BCRCMP #CIRG gave a promotion to one of the most violent & unhinged COs too, instead of reprimanding him for multiple unlawful actions. Sgt. Charney - long history of complaints that go back decades, which include racism/bigotry/abuses of power/etc. He's the shithead who sent away my BC Ambulance help, slashed emergency water tanks at Wetsuweten during a drought & wildfires season, ordered helicopters to violate Transport Canada regulations & fly too low to kick up dust/debris at activists, tried running me over with an ATV - I could literally list many more illegal shit done by Charney alone.

Europe strikes back? Europe didn't strike back when they fined €700 Mio to US tech giants. Those tech giants were aware of EU laws and chose to break those laws.

Those 2 US tech bros got what they had coming by their choice.

Why do we treat car crime so differently from other forms of law-breaking — and who benefits?

"But here's the point: the authorities knew of these risks to #nationalsecurity, and thought that they were worth taking, and for a reason. I suggest that this reason is that #Signalchats provide #Americanauthorities with cover to plan the violation of #humanrights."

A quotation from Samuel Johnson

All Crimes are safe, but hated Poverty.
This, only this, the rigid Law pursues.

A quotation from Thoreau

If the injustice is part of the necessary friction of the machine of government, let it go, let it go: perchance it will wear smooth, — certainly the machine will wear out. If the injustice has a spring, or a pulley, or a rope, or a crank, exclusively for itself, then perhaps you may consider whether the remedy will not be worse than the evil; but if it is of such a nature that it requires you to be the agent of injustice to another, then, I say, break the law. Let your life be a counter friction to stop the machine. What I have to do is to see, at any rate, that I do not lend myself to the wrong which I condemn.

Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862) American philosopher and writer
Essay (1849-05), “Resistance to Civil Government [On the Duty of Civil Disobedience],” Æsthetic Papers, No. 1, Article 10
