This is what good cops look like. Not cops that just dont beat or kill people, but cops that stand up against those that do. Silence is compliance and this guy is doing it right
THIS. This needs more god damn notes. Have the crap I hear is all police are bad. Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. Some police are dimwits, fucktards,assholes, racists, ect…. But there are GOOD cops too. The really messed up part is you hear more about the bad ones then you do about the good ones in the news.

#Ferguson #KajiemePowell
The St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department released cell phone footage Wednesday of the police shooting of Kajieme Powell, a 25-year-old unarmed black man killed on Tuesday in St. Louis, according to St. Louis Public Radio.
A convenience store owner called 911 on Tuesday when he suspected Powell stole drinks and donuts from his shop, according to a recording of the call. Another woman called to report Powell was acting erratically and had a knife in his pocket.
Two officers in a police SUV responded to the calls, the cell phone video shows. When the officers got out of their vehicle, Powell walked in their direction, yelling and telling them to shoot him already.
Newly released cell phone footage shows Powell approaching the cops, but not coming as close as was reported, with his hands at his side. The officers began shooting within 15 seconds of their arrival, hitting Powell with a barrage of bullets.

I remember this when it happened.
Ferguson is everyday, and it seems like everyday we’re given a new reason to fight. Stay committed, stay strong, and, most of all, stay woke. #farfromover
I have literally not heard a single peep about Ferguson since November 24th from anywhere other than tumblr, twitter, and friends on Facebook. Social media is the only way the majority of people are going to hear anything, and especially without the racist spin from the mainstream news. The importance of this can’t be overstated.

#Ferguson is still happening, and protesters/residents are still being terrorized. Are you still paying attention? #staywoke #farfromover
protestors not thugs
protestors not rioters
protestors not terrorists
Oh.
OH
Protestors with guns. Right.
No no. It’s not protesters. It’s pronounced Degenerate Scum. I can see how the News Programs could make that simple error.
6.8.21. Minnesota
A DHS/CBP pilot illegally intimidates protestors by flying a helicopter feet above protestors to create a dust storm and fear of collision. CBP in collaboration with Minnesota law enforcement are fighting protestors against Line 3 on behalf of the Canadian corporation Enbridge. Enbridge, with the support of U.S. armed forces, is attempting to build an oil pipeline through Anishinaabe/Ojibwe treaty land.
Global capital is in collaboration with capitalist governments to exploit Indigenous people and land. This is not limited to the U.S. or Canada nor recent decades.
[Image description: four tweets and a video.
The first tweet is by Evan Frost @efrostee and says “DHS/Border Patrol is using helicopter rotor wash to try to clear out activists from an occupied #Line3 pump station north of Park Rapids. More than 24 activists are locked down to equipment inside. @MPRNews”.
The video is a minute long and shows a helicopter flying close to the ground above a ground of people standing on a gravel road, which kicks up a huge cloud of dust. Towards the end of the video someone asks, “You got glasses?” and another person responds “I got some.”
John Edwin Mason @johnEdwinMason quoted the tweet and said “This is *exactly* the tactic that I saw South African apartheid police use in 1989 against peaceful protestors who were trying to desegregate a whites-only beach.”
giniw collective @GiniwCollective tweeted “Minnesota law enforcement enforcing Enbridge trespass on Ojibwe territory. They’re getting paid by Enbridge, via the MN-overseen Public Safety Escrow Trust. How many times does this injustice against Indigenous people & our lands play out, @potus @ginaMcCarthy46? #StopLine3” on June 7, 2021. Two photos are attached, showing police standing in a line in the site and a group of protestors outside of the line.
Honor the Earth (verified) @HonorTheEarth tweeted “Over 200 folks from #TreatyPeopleGathering remain camped on the Enbridge matting near the Mississippi headwaters, in solidarity with @RISEandEngage. Their ask? @POTUS honor the treaties and #StopLine3.” They attached two photos. The first is taken from above and shows a group of people lining a road holding a sign that says “Stop Line 3”. The road is painted with the message “Biden / Honor the Treaties / Stop Line 3” in black, white, and red capital letters. Yellow triangles on either side point to the message. The second photo shows two lines of tents on wood planks.
On June 8, Resist Line 3 @ResistLine3 quoted that tweet and said “Our movement is strong, and it grows stronger each day. With each new water protector, our collective voice grows. Join us to #StopLine3: linktr.ee/stopLine3.”
The thumbnail for the linktree is a photo of a group of protestors with their faces blurred, carrying flags and signs with messages. The readable ones say: Water Protector, Stop Line 3, Respect Treaties. They are also carrying a small red banner with six badges on it, edged with feathers.
The thumbnail for the Stop Line 3 website is a photo of a group of people carrying a blank banner with stars. The first word is cut off but says “Gaa-bimaji’wemagak / We Will Stop Line 3.” They are carrying the same feather-edged banner.
