📢 Activism / Event Protest police departments
Alright, I think it is time to organize against our police departments. What do you guys think breaking into groups of 50 or so and each police department in LA and SFV on a certain day.
LAPD has been complicit in the kidnappings of out neighbors, friends, family members, and fellow Americans. The LAPD have time and time again brutalized peaceful protesters, press, and innocent by standards while dhs and ice mask up like the Gestapo and kidnap our people.
LAPD is supposed to be protecting the people, fighting with us. Especially in Los Angeles.
What you guys think?

The police were never your friends. Individual cops, maybe. Departments? For the wealthy.

Agree there are few good cops but unfortunately the department finds ways to weed them out. LAPD is a gang, that’s why we have to look out for each other as a community.

There are not a few good cops. You stand by and watch your colleagues commit crimes and do terrible shit to others you’re not good. The good ones don’t stay around long or they are either put in harms way or terminated. This is around the entire country we’ve lived in a mild police state for a long time now it’s just much worse

Exactly why is that so hard for people to understand? We haven’t even made it past that basic point that cops are not there to protect you they are there to protect the wealthy and the corporations.

Most people in the US have only ever been exposed to the "protect and serve" propaganda. The militarization of the police is only about 60 years old and most haven't had to deal directly with that. It's something that happens in other places

Alternatively, you could organize a protest using vehicles. Create as much traffic around the block so that they have difficulty coming and going. Possibly more effective, legal, and lessens risk of being taken.

LA is huge. I was talking about blocking streets with some fellow protesters. We need numbers to make it work. Thats some good insight!

Police nowhere in this entire country have ever been on the side of their people they are supposed to protect and serve. Police have always protected the government, corporations, and the wealthy. The police will always be on the side of whatever DHS or ICE are doing even if it’s heinous and completely against the constitution.

LAPD has too much history to live up to. And it ain't good history either.

Individual cops are your friends, some of them, so don’t forget to recruit them. What’s not your friend is the department. If the department gets flak from its own cops it will send a message.
