Kidnapping, unlawful detainment, contempt. I hope this guy gets a fortune for government misdeeds
Playing with lives for votes. At the taxpayer expense.
The Republican way.
Only slightly the same thing nowhere near the same but.. A story I feel the need to share. One time I got arrested over a petty little warrant. Over a broken windshield. Guilty. I was an idiot letting it go to warrant. My only defense is I was a fucking stupid ass 22-year-old. This happened at like 1:00 in the morning like 20 years ago. We didn't have a working phone so I couldn't call home but as soon as I was getting arrested my friend that was with me said he would go talk to my mom and get my bail taken care of.
Less than 45 minutes after I got there the bus that was supposed to pick people up and take them to county showed up and they said... Well nobody's got you in this amount of time we're sending you to county.
And then for 3 days... They fucking lost me. My mom made my bail like 20 minutes after they bussed me away. But I was in there for 3 days because somehow in the system they couldn't figure out where the fuck I had been sent.
When they finally found me they didn't even take me all the way home even though it was only less than a mile from the original police station. They insisted that was the farthest they would go. One more fucking mile on a main road.
I can say from experience, once you put on that metaphorical striped uniform, you are an "other" and are barely considered a human
What is the actual status of this? This is outrageous
Doesn't matter how we get our slaves as long as we get our slaves.
I'm ashamed to be an american.
Where only some folks is free
And I won’t forget the men in blue
Who shoot minorities
When will we stand up, And fight for what we believe?
If we haven't by now I don't see that happening. And Harris wants to disarm the population.. although maybe that will actually spark a revolution who knows..
You messed up the song bro. I agree with you but we were singing!
Awh shit my bad 😅
can always count on the fucking disgusting idiots of the south to produce such bullshit
fuck em all
Repubs don't give a fuck so long as they can harm people.
This post is all over the place?
They are "blocking the release", but a judge did overturn the conviction?
I haven't clicked the link yet before getting confused, but I feel like this post is giving mixed signals.
They're appealing the ruling. And so they want to keep him in prison until that's done. Which is ridiculous.
They're going to get their asses sued into oblivion. The problem is "their asses" is actually "the taxpayers" because these ghouls won't be personally liable.
Ah, okay. Now I'm back on track. Thank you.
