Massive abuse of police power: an entire small small town police department raided the offices and home of a local newspaper's staff after someone leaked the identity of a local businessperson with a DUI and who was driving without a license.
The search warrant alleges identity theft and illegal use of a computer, which is complete b.s., and the seizure is probably a violation of the First or Fourth Amendments, or both.

Urgently stop the using facial recognition surveillance

This Orwellian technology is oppressing people in China & Russia.

The Met would be the largest police force in the democratic world to roll out this dangerously authoritarian surveillance

The Met’s stats show facial recognition to be over 80% inaccurate

"The Sheriff’s Office spokesperson, according to the suit, told the family they’d get him medical help in Walker County Jail. Instead, guards tased Mitchell and locked him in a freezer, killing him, the suit alleges. The suit filed Monday also contends jail leadership began a cover up of Mitchell’s death hours before he died."

Today in Labor History January 13, 1874: The original Tompkins Square Riot occurred on this date in response to the Long Depression. The depression, which lasted from 1873-1877, was the worst depressions in the history of the U.S. until the Great Depression of the 1930s. Over 3 million people were unemployed. 900 people starved to death in the winter of 1873, while 3,000 people left their infants on doorsteps because they couldn’t feed them. In New York City, alone, there were over 90,000 homeless workers, half of whom were women. >7,000 marched to Tompkins Square Park to demonstrate for public works jobs, when mounted police charged into the crowd, beating men, women and children indiscriminately with clubs, causing hundreds of casualties. Police Commissioner Abram Duryee said, "It was the most glorious sight I ever saw."
