It's illegal to drive in NSW if you take this one medicine, even if you're perfectly sober. Let's look at the ridiculous law around medicinal cannabis and drug driving tests.

Very proud to feature in this story from the formidable Antoinette Lattouf

When police are first responders to mental health emergencies, they can end up hurting people who need help. The NSW Law Enforcement Conduct Commission is reviewing how police deal with mental health interactions. Fill our the survey or make your own submission at the link below before 30 June.

Former NSW cop Craig Barham has threatened us, with a euphamism for murder dating back to the Boer War. What should we do?

This isn't an isolated incident. Policing attracts violent men, and reinforces that behaviour at home and even with other cops. They have unique access to surveilance that enables harassment of victims, and a culture of protecting abusive "mates".

In Tsarist Russia, the police set up labour unions that they would control, in order to draw support away from revolutionary organisations. It didn't go as planned...

Police have raided the homes of four peace activists in Victoria, in the latest case of cops using searches and bail conditions to incapacitate our organisations.

Tasers are often framed as a safe or preventative tool in police responses to crisis. In situations involving flammable substances, they can instead escalate risk with fatal consequences.

Are nangs legal or not? Nitrous oxide is a widely used recreational drug in Australia, but its legal status is murky.

NSW Police have a recruitment stall for young kids at the Easter Show - why is this normalised?

Which side are you on, Luke? Eight feminist, anti-genocide activists have been arrested after Victorian Trades Hall Council secretary Luke Hilakari called the cops on them for draping an apron on the statue of Zelda D'Aprano, and painting slogans on the ground.

We're heading to Nimbin MardiGrass! On May 1 every year, thousands of people converge to celebrate cannabis culture and campaign for law reform. www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/...

Chris Minns's goons are still harrassing people weeks after the police riot in Sydney on February 9. No cops have faced any consequences for their violence, but as the police media release notes, 16 more anti-genocide protesters have been charged since the initial round.

Why I'm anticop - there are good academic reasons to oppose the police, but for me it's personal

Protesters chanted "all cops are bastards", so the police falesly claimed they were part of the "ACAB Gang" which is as dangerous as the Hell's Angels, Crips or Bloods.

Do cops just enforce the law? New AFP Commissioner Krissy Barrett is lobbying for law changes, and has already set up new units to target anti-genocide activists.

In this pepper spray decontamination protocol (from @darugcountrystreetmedics on IG) you'll learn how to properly treat somebody who has been sprayed by police.

Police are murdurous babies

These weapons were tested and normalised in colonial settings, such as Singapore, Malaysia, and Hong Kong - far from public scrutiny in Britain itself. Colonised populations were treated as proving grounds for crowd control tactics later exported elsewhere.

How to protect yourself from tear gas - Let's look at the effects of tear gas, the equipment you need and ways to disable the canisters so you can stay safe from the police.

Tear gas history - it's banned in warfare, so why can police use it?

“I no longer view this organisation as worthy of my trust or community safety. I am ashamed to say I ever wore the uniform. I am particularly appalled at the level of male officer violence perpetrated on women, and the elderly."

Just when you thought NSW policing couldn't get any worse...

An inside look at the finances of content creation - what are the costs and income streams for a left wing political education channel like anticop?

After widespread police brutality at the Sydney rally against Herzog, we need to get serious about taking on police in the streets.

The NSW Police had a recruitment stall at Mardi Gras Fair Day, and we were there to disrupt it. #YouShouldBeACop #youshouldntbeacop

Tom from anticop joined Backchat on FBi Radio today to talk about the Sydney Herzog Rally, kettling, pepper spray and long range acoustic devices. Listen to the link in comments from 28 minutes.

Spotted in Surry Hills tonight near the rally against police brutality. This is a BearCat, an armoured truck. It's part of the Tactical Operations Unit (like SWAT) and appears to be the model with an extendable ramp on top.

I was just arrested at the Herzog rally at Sydney Town Hall

"Anticop was born in February 2025 from frustration with the policing of pro-Palestine rallies. 'The state has done everything it can to shut that movement down, to allow the genocide to continue, and the police are a key component,' Mr Raue says."

NEW ARTICLE - FLASHBANGS. These explosive devices are designed to overwhelm the victims’ senses. Despite being marketed as “less lethal”, they often start fires and have killed several children. Flashbangs have recently been deployed against protesters in Melbourne and Minneapolis.

The proposal was moderate: give the public an independent way to hold police accountable. The response was extreme.

Due to censorship risks and Elon Musk being how he is, we're diversifying our social media accounts. We'll still post on Instagram, TikTok, Youtube, Facebook, Bluesky and X, but we've now added UpScrolled and Threads. Please follow us over there, and share our content to help get it off the ground!

Police have threatened to use a futuristic sound cannon against anti-ICE protesters in Minnesota. So what is the long range acoustic device (LRAD), and how can you protect yourself?

Minns's response to today's Invasion Day march: Aboriginal people can't protest against land theft and police brutality here - what, did you think it was Gadigal land?

Last year the WA Police "union" objected to cops being included in new laws that restrict firearms for people subject to restraining orders. It's a confusing position, until you remember the studies indicating 40% of police families experience domestic violence.

How do you avoid a drug conviction? Here are two things to look out for to avoid supply convictions in NSW. This is general information, not legal advice.

anticop founder Tom Raue spoke to @paulrgregoire.bsky.social from Sydney Criminal Lawyers about the history of modern police forces, the role of police in society and the possibility of abolition.

This isn't a new problem. In 2021 off-duty Metropolitan Police Officer Wayne Couzens identified himself as a cop to Sarah Everard, handcuffed, raped and murdered her. Police then attacked a vigil for Everard.

After an ICE officer murdered Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis, some people have called for better training for ICE agents. This is a mistake. #abolishICE #minnesota #cops #police

A company called Protector recently launched their app Patrol, allowing wealthy Americans to hire off-duty cops as security. You just hit a button on your phone and a patrol car comes to you. #cops #police #uber #security

We don't know all the details yet, but what we do know is that pepper spray puts strain on the metabolism and it is especially dangerous for people with a range of medical conditions. It’s a serious weapon.

ABC reporting a “period of rising tension between the United States and Venezuela” Venezuela hasn’t done anything. There is no rising tension, it’s just Trump.

Presumably Penny Wong will issue a statement that the bombing of Venezuala and kidnapping Maduro is "difficult to judge from afar", as is her practice when her mates commit war crimes

If you hate anticop then you’re in luck because today we’re talking about everything we’ve gotten wrong. It’s time for corrections. #cops #police #handcuffs #pepperspray #youshouldbeacop

Police and parts of the media claim there is an epidemic of cops overdosing after touching or breathing in fentanyl, but this is scientifically impossible. So are they lying, delusional, or is something else going on?

What does "intifada" mean? Governments in the UK and NSW are banning this Arabic word - why? #Cops #police #palestine #nsw #uk
