Man.
Cops get huffy when you ask them if they're gonna give you a carding receipt when they talk to you unsolicitedly.

Wait until I start asking them if they want some of my hair for their trophy collection. 😇

❝
The officers under scrutiny are said to be predominantly young male constables with three to four years of experience.

Investigators are examining claims that Black people and individuals of Arab origin were disproportionately targeted in the district’s diverse neighbourhoods. Some officers are alleged to have made racist remarks, according to witness testimony gathered during the probe.

Members of the team also allegedly collected pieces of locs (also called dreadlocks) — cut from apprehended men — and kept the hair as trophies, according to reports by La Presse and Radio-Canada.

Dagher declined to confirm or deny the latter allegation Friday night, but added that the hair cutting is part of the investigation and therefore could not be commented on at this time.

“The SPVM reiterates that racism, discrimination or any other unacceptable behaviour is not tolerated within the organization,” Dagher said.

Last night I was made to remove the line about cops brainstorming additional charges to make themselves look better about fucking up (ALL charges were dropped eventually) from a report, right about the time cops were brainstorming charges for a 12 yr old they shot at, multiple times judging by the plethora of tiny cones marking the shell casings.

1. Thank fucking DOG cops are shit shots or there might be three dead 12-year-olds right now.

2. The practice of standing in FRONT of a vehicle while firing at it is the MOST INANE FUCKING THING ever to have originated in watching too much television.

3. Cops ABSOLUTELY DO OVERCHARGE AND JUST MAKE SHIT UP when they know they're in the wrong, in order to deflect and make it look like they've done something impressive. We really have to look at cases where charges get dropped or reduced through that lens, ALWAYS.

4. Since there really is no such thing as accountability for police, I have developed a petty and omnipresent urge to see them do more paperwork and be embarrassed by the actual wrong that they do.

I'm going to start calling for public inquiries into everything. I don't actually think the fucking inquiries are going to do a fucking thing except make paperwork and embarrass them.

Much like I don't think the SIU investigations do anything except make paperwork and embarrass them, but it is the tool I have and it is the tool I'm going to use.

4. I'm endlessly impressed by the size of my information and rumour network at this point. You'll see why shortly.

these are just the ones that got caught. i'd wager it's much more widespread

"Sixteen police officers from Station 39 in Montréal-Nord are under investigation for racist and hateful acts allegedly committed against Black and Arab people during police stops, Radio-Canada has learned."

UPDATE! The motherfuckers have cancelled. Most excellent.
📢 📣 📢 📣 📢

Yo! #Toronto!

There's another #NaziRally this Sunday, on Yonge Street, no less.

Do you know the little parkette between Gerrard and Carlton? The one with the archway? That's the one.

Sunday. 2 pm.
White Lives Matter, Paul Fromm, Gus Stefanis.

This is what happens when you let the cops help them march through the streets: they get emboldened.

I'm going to need you to get off your ass and show up this time.

the SIU is "investigating" the violent arrest of a Toronto cyclist **tackled off his bike by a cop**, which left him with a concussion 🤕

100% probable outcome: *crickets* 🦗

also: the fact that cyclists flout that stop sign in droves is because the intersection is poorly designed. take it back to the drawing board already
