Kansas state patrol needs to step in and take over this situation, hopefully ending with the prosecution of the police chief for abuse of power and manslaughter. If they don't act soon, the FBI needs to investigate both organizations.
Not just the police chief. They need immediate investigation into magistrate who authorized this raid basically signed their name to a raid that blatantly violates constitutional rights and ignores over 100 years of legal precedence
Why would the state patrol possibly want to do anything about this? Cops are cops, and cops protect each other from perceived enemies.
Yes. But sometimes the shitbirds make enough shit that the shit starts to run uphill, and the staties get involved so some politicians don't have to deal with even more shit.
Cop-fight!
What a shitshow. It sure sounds like the cops are trying to intimidate this newspaper… but the whole story sounds screwy.
Do you really get to keep your liquor license if you get a DUI? I’m not against problem drinking, doing some now… just not behind the wheel.
The irony that they were trying to keep it under wraps and now it’s a national story.
Streisand effect.
Gotta love it!
Horrible. These fascists need to be held accountable, including the judge who authorized such a flatly unconstitutional raid.
Why is your account marked as a bot account?
Bold statement coming from a MicroWave
Beep boop!
It's been 8 hours since the MicroWave notified me that my HotPockets were ready. Maybe, for the first time ever, I won't burn off the roof of my mouth on my second bite.
Would it be a bolder statement from a toaster? I mean- boop beep.
Weird, it was toggled on in my settings but I don't remember checking it. I guess I thought it was for making bot accounts visible when I first signed up? Thanks for flagging.
Glad to help!
It's Kansas… they're mostly fascists anyway
I'm still this close 🤏 to calling for violence.
Not doing it yet.
But this close.
Right next to you. They want to FOFA then no more tears at the wake, I mean after party.
Big corporate hates attention about their practices. I was retaliated against and then crippled for raising concerns about my workplace. Corporate protected the store manager and the HR manager over the rape of an underaged cashier. Conservative corporations like The Home Depot need to be boycotted and shut down.
All corporations under capitalism are conservative. It takes a conservative's level of hate for their fellow humans to exploit them like modern corporations do.
Frankly, corporations are rather authoritarian. You don't get to vote on what decisions corporate is going to shove down everyones' throat in most places. HR always protects the company before the employee, etc.
Don't I know it. Socialism is the future.
Sometimes I really like humanity and then sometimes I really fucking hate us.
Tried it in a small town, and found out.
Certain criminals don't get puniahed... That's just how the system works. Takes a lot of social pressures for this sort of thing to be even taken seriously.
