Another cop demonstrating exactly what he is:
A [typical and representative] cop [who]...snapp[ed] photos up skirts during a Texas wedding is [named]...Scott Eugene Kilmer...[wedding organizers foolishly hired Kilmer to attend the event wearing his magical clown costume], whe[re] he was caught [repeatedly putt]ing...his foot [with a camera on it] between [women's] legs but [nobody wanted to] confront him because [they were afraid he would maim, tase, pepper-spray or even murder]...the...guests...the camera transmitted photos to a device in Kilmer's p[igmobile]...[where other cops] discovered about 50 video clips from the wedding and...similar images [he had taken] previously...
Corporations have become the favored tool of censors worldwide:
The British government [has] proposed sweeping re[gulation]s to force [websites] to...[cens]or what is posted online - including carve-outs to [render] politicians [immune to such censorship]...The much-delayed Online Safety Bill includes hefty penalties for companies that fail to [obey the censorship diktats of politicians]...and...[forc]es a so-called duty of care on social networks, smartphone apps and other sites where people can interact with each other, making them [arms of the fascist establishment whether they like it or not]...Content on [politically favored] websites will...not be subject to the new rules...The U.K.'s proposals come as countries worldwide look to [by]pass [legal restrictions on censorship by] forc[ing] social media companies to [do the governments' dirty work for them]...In Germany, local officials recently revamped the country's [notorious] online content rules, known as NetzDG, to mandate that companies [become police informants]...The European Union is also pushing ahead with s[imilar] proposals...while countries like Hungary and Poland are pursuing [laws] that would...ban...platforms f[rom censoring politicians and bureaucrats]...[anti-]rights campaigners and misinformation [promoter]s welcomed the U.K.'s new proposals...

O, Canada! (#1027)Prohibitionists want Ontario to be more like the US:
Advocates and community groups are calling on the province to drop plans to [increase police powers using the pretext of] human trafficking...[because the] proposed bill [will] harm sex workers and...lead to discrimination and racial profiling...The proposed law would [empower cops] to inspect any place for compliance with the law and [interrogate] any person [they feel like harssing]...with failure to comply leading to possible heavy fines. Police and inspectors would also have the power to [demand] hotels...[let the pigs root in] their guest registers...without [warrant, merely by vomiting the magic words "]human trafficking[" at random clerks]...Over 70 legal and human rights organizations have written to the provincial government in opposition to the bill, calling for the resources dedicated to this plan to instead be redirected into efforts to help marginalized communities across the province. Sandra Ka Hon Chu...of the HIV Legal Network...[pointed out that] these types of government initiatives [always] involve surveillance...and [usually abduc]tion and/or deportation of sex workers..."human trafficking i[s used] as a pretext to monitor and interrogate sex workers and to discourage them from working," she said...
There are still some Westerners who insist this isn't genocide:
Served Cold (#1120)Across much of China, the authorities are encouraging women to have more children...but in...Xinjiang, they are forcing them to have fewer, as...part of a vast and repressive social...engineering campaign by a Communist Party determined to e[stablish fully totalitarian] rule...Xi Jinping...has [condemned millions of]...Uyghurs...to [concentration] camps...placed the region under tight surveillance, sent residents to work in factories [thousands of kilometers away, abducted Uyghur] children...[to give to childless Han couples, and forced] Muslim women...to [submit to]...invasive birth control procedures...[propaganda] authorities [absurdly claim that] the procedures are voluntary...[but] the [facts say otherwise. Uyghur women]...recuperat[ing] at home [from the forced sterilization were also forced to literally accept] government officials [in their beds]...If they...refused...they faced steep fines or, worse... a...[concentration] camp...[where] they were...[repeatedly and systematically] raped ...
It took almost seven years, but the press finally caught up with me on this:
I'd never heard of Operation Underground Railroad when...Tim Ballard, called me suddenly in the summer of 2014...I didn't wonder why he thought it was appropriate for me-the writer of a mommy blog-to chronicle anti-trafficking work...A camera crew filmed everything, because Ballard...[was] pitch[ing] a TV series about his [cowboy games]...OUR staff...were mostly as inexperienced as I was...Everybody wanted to "save the kids," but no one really knew anything about these kids. We talked mostly about fundraising. The calls never addressed real things children need to be saved from...Ballard...put me in harm's way so that I could write a story about him...But...I'd imagined myself the same way he did...as a savior...I tried to find meaning in my own life on the backs of exploited kids... A TV show based on [his] book...Slave Stealers, is currently in development. And a new action movie about him, Sound of Freedom, is forthcoming. Jim Caviezel plays Ballard, with Mira Sorvino as his wife...
US "authorities" keep pretending "because sex" is an excuse for any tyranny:
To Molest and Rape (#1130)Federal prosecutors have failed, for now, in their most repugnant smear tactic to date in the case involving veteran journalists and onetime Backpage.com owners, Michael Lacey and Jim Larkin...Judge Susan Brnovich denied a government bid to prejudice the jury at trial by introducing gruesome details of homicides that Lacey, Larkin and their four co-defendants have absolutely nothing to do with...But in a separate ruling issued the same day, Brnovich explained that she will permit prosecutors to try to introduce material involving "sex trafficking" and "child sex trafficking," though the defendants are not charged with these heinous crimes...These allegations rest on an absurd theory of vicarious, third-party liability, in an attempt to hold Lacey and Larkin responsible for the alleged illegal acts of people they don't know, have never met and have zero connection to...
High union rank is another thing rapist cops often have in common:
A [typical and representative] Miami-Dade [cop] and...high-ranking union member has been charged with sexual battery...John Jenkins Jr. has been "re[warded for his behavior with a paid vacation]" said [top cop] Alfredo "Freddy" Ramirez III in a statement [which also focused] on...Jenkins...not...[wearing his magic clown costume while raping women]...Jenkins resigned as executive vice president of the South Florida Police Benevolent Association...
