The False Dichotomy of “Police Week”
Guidelines Given for Suicide Coverage
Doesn't glorifying terrorism, murder and crime have the same impact as glorifying suicide? Maybe it should be made illegal for government employees like police to discuss non statistical information about crime and terrorism, to deprive the media of the resources they need to report on such stories.

I bet the president is concerned about the number of stereos stolen out of people's cars.
Aided By Palantir, the LAPD Uses Predictive Policing to Monitor Specific People and Neighborhoods
"Police stops in Los Angeles are highly concentrated within just a small portion of the population, and the Los Angeles Police Department has been using targeted predictive policing technology that may exacerbate that focused scrutiny. That’s according to a report put out this week by the research and activist organization Stop LAPD Spying Coalition, which draws from the testimony of city residents and newly released police documents to paint a picture of a “racist feedback loop” where a “disproportionate amount of police resources are allocated to historically hyper-policed communities.”
"Survey results included in the report suggest that very few people in Los Angeles bear the brunt of most police interactions: 2 percent of residents who responded to the survey reported being stopped by police between 11 and 30 times a week or more, while 76 percent of respondents reported never being stopped at all. The 300 survey respondents were distributed across geography, race, age, and gender. In focus groups, people who lived in areas heavily targeted by police described a state of constant surveillance. Asking “how often do I see police in my area is like asking me how many times do I see a bird in the day,” said one resident."
Criminals to Energy Has Many Benefits to Society
One of the great crisis facing our country is not only crime, but also the need for energy.⚡ Why not convert convicted felons to energy with a modern waste-to-energy facility? 🏭
This week it was proposed to let parolees vote.🗳 Why avoid the whole situation all together, by incinerating the convicted criminals rather then let them back on the street? 👮Then we would never have to worry about criminals committing further crime or even needing a right to vote. Incineration of criminals would be a carbon negative solution, as an incinerated criminal would have no further consumption involved with their life.🔥
Waste-to-energy for convicted criminals is a clean, modern way to dispose of criminals. Unlike conventional waste-to-energy plants, the fuel of convicted criminals is relatively clean source of fuel, with the make up material almost entirely organic.🌎 Criminals contain much fewer heavy metals than ordinary solid waste. The demand for fuel to operate a criminal-fueled energy plant, would encourage people to be law-abiding, knowing otherwise their is a hungry furnace looking to convert themselves to energy.
Many people are opposed to the death penalty.🙌 I understand there is an issue with those wrongly convicted of crimes. Mistakes happen. But with the savings to governments with waste-to-energy for criminals, monetary relief can be provided to families of those wrongly convicted of a crime and converted to energy.💰 While money can not restore a life, it can provide reasonable compensation for wrongful death.
I think Waste-to-Energy for convicted felons is a humane, effective solution for reducing crime and our nation’s carbon footprint. 😮 It avoids locking up people, infringing on their freedom. No more prisons — just energy. 🔌 Converting convicted criminals to energy can provide for our nation’s growing need for energy, while getting people permanently off the street that are harming our society.
Liberals and Crime
One thing liberals will never call gun violence 🔫 is a crime. Liberals don’t like to think of gun violence as a crime, even though murder very much a crime in all jurisdictions, and often is considered one of the most serious crimes, falling only slightly behind terrorism and treason.
The reason many liberals don’t like to call gun violence a crime, is addressing crime is generally thought of as requiring more aggressive policing 👮 combined with increased policing in low-income neighborhoods that are primarily of color. It’s hard though to ignore where murders and crime are happening, if you want to be able to address it in an effective way. 🚔
