2 stories from this week - Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders are 11x more likely to be searched by Victorian cops than white people, and police are instituting a six-month period of warrantless searches across the Melbourne CBD.
Who do you think they'll be harrassing?
Jaquie Thomson was assaulted at her father's memorial service, leaving her with two black eyes and a brain injury. Instead of dealing with the perpetrator, police arrested Jaquie. Check out Nina Funnell's infuriating article on police misidentification of predominant aggressors (link in below).

We're recording a video outside today with our new lapel mic that we've been able to afford thanks to our Patreon supporters. This should improve the sound quality significantly.
If you want to chip in as little as $2/month to help with equipment like this, go to patreon.com/anticop
If any of us chased down and shot somebody *for wearing a hoodie* we would go down for manslaughter or murder. When the cops do it, they face no charges at all.

We spoke to @paulrgregoire.bsky.social from Sydney Criminal Lawyers about the horrific death of Colin Burling and why people experiencing mental health emergencies need healthcare, not police.

If Chris Minns stubbed his toe, he'd say the answer is more police powers.
Cops aren't the solution to racism, they're the problem.
It's already a crime to incite hatred based on race, but the cops didn't care - in fact they approved the Form 1 for the rally!
ASIO's powers are being extended - what are these powers, and who has ASIO historically targeted?

People sometimes suggest tranquiliser guns as a "less lethal" weapon for police. Our new article explains why that's a bad idea.

With police recently shooting rubber bullets at anti-racist protesters in Naarm/Melbourne, it's worth brushing up on the history and dangers of the weapon.

Here's the full judgement from Tuesday's strip-search case.
A bit that stood out to me was the cop who claimed Meredith said “I had a smoke with a joint this morning”, an odd phrase that she denies ever saying. The judge accepted that she didn't say that.

Great article by @paulrgregoire.bsky.social, covering the history of the NSW Mounted Police that other media ignored!

I’ve got a quiz for you. If 3 men were seen kicking a 14 year old Indigenous girl and hitting her with a stick at the side of the road, who would the police arrest?
