Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
My partner got a ticket when they were 12 for riding a bike without a helmet. They were riding home from school. They had to go to a court, AT TWELVE, where the judge scolded them and gave them an official warning, but threw out the ticket.
It's no wonder they grew up to become an anarchist. This country and its use of police is obscene
Amerikkka is and always has been an apartheid police state.
My first time in court was at 7, for truancy, and they made my seven year old ass plead guilty. Didn’t explain to me why you go to school, didn’t ask why I wasn’t going, just told me if I didn’t go to school I’d be in contempt of court. And when I still didn’t go to school, they held me in fucking contempt of court lmao, and ordered my mom to go to school with me for a time.
