Just in, from the Department of Irony:

"The Phoenix Law Enforcement Association — the union that represents Phoenix cops — did not respond to a Phoenix New Times inquiry about its response to Giordano’s pledge to implement the new policies. PLEA had previously been critical of Sullivan’s reform efforts."

This will be worth watching. www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/j...

Here more evidence of Phoenix Police officers acting like sadistic pricks:

This is new from ABC15 in Phoenix, regarding the Arizona Department of Child Safety: "We’re launching DCS: State of Failure because too often, and for far too long, Arizona has failed to protect vulnerable children from abuse, neglect, and danger." www.abc15.com/news/local-n...

Interesting follow-up on the case of the judge who was shot by a sheriff. nypost.com/2025/08/20/u...

My version of art. Fetch me my long sword ~

"Maricopa County Attorney Rachel Mitchell and other top prosecutors will be subpoenaed to testify in a special evidentiary hearing to determine whether charges against dozens of pro-Palestine protesters were retaliatory." www.abc15.com/news/local-n...

"A former Tempe police commander alleges the city manager was using police resources to track people who are homeless and at least two community advocates, in a letter sent to state authorities." www.abc15.com/news/local-n...

"Well, there's always going to be a few bad apples."

Cops lie. Avoid them. "Louisiana authorities have agreed to pay $9 million to a man who was partially paralyzed from the waist down after a trooper shot him in the back during a 2018 traffic stop in Baton Rouge and then falsely reported it as a Taser discharge." www.cnn.com/2025/08/09/u...

Cops lie. "For more than three years, officials tried to prosecute her for the tragic death of Officer Paul Rutherford, with police and prosecutors withholding key video evidence and using misleading and biased testimony to obtain a negligent homicide charge." www.abc15.com/news/local-n...

In my comments below, you can learn about two people who both were shot by police using "less lethal" rounds, who both lost an eye. Their names are Linda Tirado and Scott Olsen.

Keep children away from cops. #ACAB 🖕

Unless you're a cop, cops are not your friends. #ACAB 🖕

Many cops are selfish pricks, and almost all of the rest of them have no interest in doing anything about them. Ask any attorney if they trust cops. They'll tell you they avoid them, and you should too.

If you missed the new episode of South Park last night, you may be able to watch it on demand. It's a classic. www.politico.com/news/2025/07...

"The Phoenix Police Department cleared a quartet of officers who pinned a wrongly-identified man on hot pavement, which burned away chunks of his skin across his body." www.abc15.com/news/local-n...

Well, there's some justice here. Also, the last paragraph says: "In the Taylor case, three other ex-Louisville police officers have been charged with crafting a falsified warrant, but have not gone to trial." apnews.com/article/breo...

It's important for everyone to realize that cops are not their friends. In fact, #ACAB www.youtube.com/watch?v=thg8...

ICE agents are supercool warriors who need hype videos set to Kendrick Lamar and also small little boys who have to hide their faces because 70-year-old grannies might hurt them.

If you read this entire excellent article, you'll see some fact-based reporting about many Phoenix Police officers who have done things that many would consider to be horrible and inexcusable. www.phoenixnewtimes.com/news/phoenix...

"(Jacob Moore) was arrested and booked into jail, where he originally faced second-degree murder charges, but later pleaded guilty to manslaughter." "Moore is the son of a Phoenix Police Department lieutenant, and the truck involved in the crash belonged to his dad." www.abc15.com/news/local-n...

Wow. Some companies like GM have been accused of having horrible ethics, but this is wild.

Never trust police officers, because #ACAB 🖕

More about the Phoenix Police: Overtime costs have more than doubled in recent years. Officers can get paid twice for the same shift by taking leave and instead working overtime. The top 18 officers earned over $5,300,000 in overtime collectively in about two years. www.abc15.com/news/local-n...

This is incredible.

It would be interesting to know the real stories behind all police suicides. Years ago a Phoenix cop approached me collecting donations for the family of a Phoenix Police officer who had recently died. I said, "If I had died, do you think he would have cared?" Silence. www.cnn.com/2025/03/29/u...
