Wir ahnten es und es dauerte leider gar nicht lange... Hier ist es also: Das neueste rechtspopulistische Vorhaben von Vorratsdaten-#Faeser und ihrer Ampel-Regierung aus #SPD, #Grünen und #FDP.
Nun wollen sie also der #Bundespolizei die „präventive“ #Überwachung von Handys und die Ermittlung von Standorten ermöglichen sowie Drohneneinsätze an Bahnhöfen, Grenzen und Flughäfen beschließen. Und natürlich noch mehr #Kameraüberwachung. Wie es sich für jeden ordentlichen Überwachungs- und #Polizeistaat nun mal gehört.
Der GdP geht das ganze – wie immer – nicht weit genug. Die will auch noch Onlinedurchsuchungen und Verschlüsselungsverbote. Vermutlich haben die einfach noch nichts von der EU-Chatkontrolle mitbekommen...
Das ganze erinnert uns an das „Loi sécurité globale“ in Frankreich. Dort gab es allerdings heftige Proteste dagegen. Bei den letzten Polizeibefugniserweiterungen/PAGs in Deutschland rafftem sich hingegen kaum mehr Linke auf und dann staunten alle mit großen Augen über die #Präventivhaft für #Klimaaktivist*innen #defundthepolice

"You have the fight against environmental defense. You have the fight for racial equality. You have the fight against capitalism. And of course, you have the fight against police militarization or the fight for police abolition," said Matt Scott, a journalist w. the Atlanta Community Press Collective

Something I find missing in the #DefundThePolice discussion (terrible name for the movement, I must say once again) is that the police provides one service that I find difficult to replace: investigative power.
The work that detectives do in conjunction with the DA’s office to investigate crime, especially organized or “ad-hoc organized” crime like catalytic converter theft rings or neighborhood-looting flash mobs, is valuable. They infiltrate and break up organizations, which can often fix systemic problems in neighborhoods where these crime rings operate.
While I’m 100% for putting resources into social good rather than more cops, I find myself wondering where investigative power should lie. Should criminal investigations be placed entirely under a DA’s office, and should we separate investigative police from “regular” police?
The recent the mass shooting in Ottawa was not home-grown. The intended target, a member of a Toronto-area gang who was not among the dead, was attending a family wedding.
I'm not saying "blame Toronto" here, we do have gangs and gun violence in Ottawa. It's just that not being not being on the US border or having a port means not having as many firearms on our streets. Here it's mostly targeted stabbings.
Contrary to the propaganda I was sold in elementary school, the #cops are NOT our friends and do NOT exist to "protect and serve" anything other than the status quo of white power and privilege (and/or their own violent sociopathy).
i think it should be a bigger story that #NYC’s #publicLibraries are now being forced to close on Sundays due to budget cuts while the #NYPD spends 95% of the #Library system’s total budget to get new encrypted radios that prevent people from knowing when the #cops kill people
> The NYPD is spending $390 million on a new, encrypted radio system
But it Won’t., They *Need* It (lemmy.world)
