August 1, 2020 - After federal agents left Portland, the Portland Police Bureau (PPB) renewed their commitment to police brutality. A peaceful march took place in a Portland suburb and was immediately met with police violence. PPB were filmed dragging protesters, beating them, slashing tires, busting car windows, and targeting street medics. Several reporters on the scene were pepper-sprayed from point-blank range and threatened. Additionally, PPB had a riot cop who’s sole task was filming protesters – an act that is illegal for the PPB to do.

National news wants you to think this story (and every protest pushing back against the police) is over. It’s not. Link to Twitter footage.

Jury nullification. Pass it on.

[antigovernmentextremist]

Jury nullification is so fucking important.

[lesserjoke]

This is something that more people should be aware of, if only because (in many states, at least) defense attorneys are actually prohibited from mentioning it to jurors. The law allows a jury to return a “not guilty” verdict contrary to the facts of the case, but not for the defense to inform them of that power or to argue for its application in the current trial.

I didn’t know about this. Wow.

This is SUPER IMPORTANT and also a good reason to show up for jury duty. You know all those laws you think are stupid? This is your chance to maybe do something about it.

I…. I thought this was common knowledge… signal boosting this because it obviously isn’t!

Did not know this

Jury nullification in the United States has its origins in colonial British America. Similar to British law, in the United States jury nullification occurs when a jury in a criminal case reaches a verdict contrary to the weight of evidence, sometimes because of a disagreement with the relevant law.

Rutger Bregman is the Dutch historian who became a global sensation after an appearance at this year’s Davos summit, where he accused attending billionaires of ignoring taxation. Now he has created another viral moment in an extremely uncomfortable interview with Fox News’s Tucker Carlson.

Bregman so riled Carson with his accusations of hypocrisy, critiques of Fox’s conservative agenda, and attacks on Donald Trump that the TV host called him a “moron” and angrily told him: “Go fuck yourself.”

Lot more people around the world are going to watch this now than if it actually aired. Speaking truth to power is the best viral content!

When Black people say that racism is systemic this is what we mean. By being over policed we are in constant danger of being disenfranchised.

So recently I found myself in the awkward position of having to explain to my mother the phenomenon of the Chicken (Chicken Chicken) Essay

oh gosh you’re in for an oedipal treat

presenting, an excerpt of the ultra scientific Chicken (Chicken Chicken) Research Essay

[syro-malabar-baby-deactivated20]

I have to disagree with the part where the author writes "Chicken chicken, chicken chicken chicken chicken chicken, chicken chicken chicken chicken chicken chicken." That's just inaccurate, based on no facts whatsoever, but go off I guess.

[papalseagull-deactivated2020082]

Actually, that was questioned when he presented the paper.
