I have just come from a #Council meeting not directly associated with my #Politics but facing similar #community #communication #Issues. On the '#Liberal #Left #Socialist ' wing we are fragmented, Many #narcisstic #Officers . I always argued for one #media #office to speak for all. 'We' had the £'s pre #StopBrexit & after to fund an office & the talent to staff it. Now? No one single voice speaking #Truth to #Power @NRM @PeterCorr

02-17-2025 - #OlympiaWA #OlyWA - Presidents' Day, 50501 Fifty Protests, Fifty States, One Day - Washington State Capitol
Thousands of #protesters showed at the Capitol on Monday in response to orange man and his crony friends. #Antifascist #protest signs were in abundance with non-stop references to Donald #Trump and Elon Musk. Large crowds gathered at the side of Capitol Blvd, in a circle on the lawn of the Capitol and at the Capitol steps.
An interesting trend seen in the #PNW #Washington #Oregon lately includes "Pro-America, Anti-Trump" protesters with an effort to "take back the flag". Other more classically right-wing representations such as #constitutional t-shirts, constitutional protest signs, references to supporting "law and order" and "rule of law" were seen.
Excerpt from February 13th "Governor Bob Ferguson Press Conference" (seen on TVW.org):
REPORTER: "With regards to your 100 million dollar proposed state grant program for local #police departments, what would you say to bystanders, #journalists and demonstrators who sustained permanent and serious injury during racial #justice #protests in 2020, in which police departments namely the #Seattle police department were found in violation by #federal courts with regards to failing to respect peoples constitutional rights" (CLIPPED)
FERGUSON: "I hear your question but, I'm also aware that we rank last, per capita, the number of law enforcement #officers we have, in the united states, and so I hear your thoughts and what's in your statement, but we need to move forward on making sure that #Washington is a safe place for all Washingtonians" (CLIPPED)

I don't know why #officers from NSRAPT (Norfolk and Suffolk #Roads and Armed #Policing Team) stopped the #recumbent #tricycle - its perfectly legal to ride it on the roads, and one of a pair owned and regularly ridden by a middle aged man in #Ipswich. Perhaps they wanted to check it wasn't motorised, and this is a show of strength and warning to those with #ebikes that could be operating beyond the legal limits?
A #petrolhead from #Suffolk got #jail after repeatedly #driving while #disqualified *and* taunting the #Police on #Facebook - only to #crash his #car into a hedge on the outskirts of #Ipswich whilst trying to evade #officers from the #Roads Policing unit

#AbolishThePolice: Some #officers are not reporting #data they are required to enter into the state database. Others enter the wrong #race of the person they stop, such as by marking #white when a person is “clearly” #Black, Henderson said. The third issue is with officers logging multiple races for a single person to “#obscure any obvious or specific #racialmakeup he said.
Investigators allowed those misstatements — and others — to stand, despite having nearly a half-hour’s worth of body #camera footage that disproved them. latest in a string of cases where the FID seemed to ignore #evidence that was potentially damaging to #officers who killed people in the line of duty.

#Federal and #state #laws should have #protected Carter by preventing Leggett, who had a #felony #record, from having a #gun. #Officers said they didn’t have enough #evidence to prove that Leggett had violated the order.
