THE POLICE PROBLEM
The police problem is that police are policed by the police. Cops are accountable only to other cops, which is no accountability at all.
99.9999% of police brutality, corruption, and misconduct is never investigated, never punished, never makes the news, so it's not on this page.
When cops are caught breaking the law, they're investigated by other cops. Details are kept quiet, the officers' names are withheld from public knowledge, and what info is eventually released is only what police choose to release — often nothing at all.
When police are fired — which is all too rare — they leave with 'law enforcement experience' and can easily find work in another police department nearby. It's called "Wandering Cops."
When police testify under oath, they lie so frequently that cops themselves have a joking term for it: "testilying." Yet it's almost unheard of for police to be punished or prosecuted for perjury.
Cops can and do get away with lawlessness, because cops protect other cops. If they don't, they aren't cops for long.
The legal doctrine of "qualified immunity" renders police officers invulnerable to lawsuits for almost anything they do. In practice, getting past 'qualified immunity' is so unlikely, it makes headlines when it happens.
All this is a path to a police state.
In a free society, police must always be under serious and skeptical public oversight, with non-cops and non-cronies in charge, issuing genuine punishment when warranted.
Police who break the law must be prosecuted like anyone else, promptly fired if guilty, and barred from ever working in law-enforcement again.
That's the solution.

Papa bless
100% of those are electricity wires.
They are telegraph wires. The style of the insulator and the uneven distribution are a dead giveaway.
There would be no insulator for fiber or coax or cat3 lines..
It's an old picture from actual telegraph lines.
Back in the day, telephone poles were used to carry telephone wires.

Glad to know that somewhere at some point, big balls is going to get a report detailing my airplane edition of Fuck Marry Kill.
Is this the government efficiency I've been hearing so much about?
Between the reckless spending, stoping IRS from collecting income, and destroying manufacturing and exporting in America its just a matter of time until the country is bankrupt. I don't think they will make it half of his term before out of money with debt ceiling raised already.
The world no longer wants American goods.
This one's for you, Mr. FBI-watching-me-be-sarcastic-online guy:

Use Tor.
And use it properly. Read the damn guide. Silly teenagers have been caught making bomb threats despite using Tor (badly).
idk about you but I like the idea of people stupid enough to get caught making bomb threats getting caught

You have an upvote button
As if DARPA doesn't control 70% of the exit nodes...
then dont use exit-nodes
So what you're saying is you have zero clue how TOR works? Gotcha.
Now give me a reason I shouldn't block you.
People aren’t typically caught inside a darknet when they are accessing only things inside that darknet. They get caught when their traffic passes through a compromised node or when accessing external resources. You are much harder to track if you keep your darknet activities inside that darknet. In the case of Tor, you would typically be accessing .onion sites. If you are using tor to just hide where you are along to way then accessing something suspect on public internet, you are just drawing more attention to yourself.
In the case of i2p, most everything is inside the network. This limits its usefulness but prevents the most common way of identifying someone in a darknet from working at all.
Freenet im still learning more about but so far it looks like there are levels of secrecy there and the most common use case in freenet has been blow open by the feds. There’s another method that’s supposedly harder for them to track but I don’t know enough about freenet to speak on that yet.
Your username suits you.
¡Watch 'em all you want! My country wouldn't have extradited me before Trough, let alone now.
Too many doors yes, Fed-boys?

I. Fucked. Your. Mother.
Thank you so much, she has been lonely.
Shes not lonely now with my full dick and balls all the way inside her (I've never had sex before).
Pro, if I do say so myself, tip: Do not insert the balls. Leave them out and slapping.
It was kinda awkward stuffing them in there. I just don't want god to see I'm wasting perfectly good balls.
In Canadian airports, departures to US have a section under US jurisdiction. People are asked to unlock their phones, and denied entry if they don't of if insufficiently enthusiastic comments about Trump are found on it. Praise Trump!!! Our new founding father, and bringer of the purge.
More like war on free speech.
