asciilifeform: the robot is a logical step to the escalation of usg police practice
mircea_popescu: trinque honestly, this is why i believe the arming of police units with military stock is even done. it makes sense from a "after the end" perspective : you want two mostly balanced forces, because that's your best chance at more or less peaceful stability.
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> if ambling about the terrain going to/from day jobs, etc. - they just quietly pick you up << a ro guy famously caught a coupla "secret agents" tailing him in traffic, beat them up (romanian tradition) took them to police station.
asciilifeform: the equipment (and selected men) steadily gets transfered to police (soon to be unified gendarmerie) forces
mircea_popescu: the us army makes excellent police and screwdrivers. bully for it.

asciilifeform: and word 'police' here meant very loosely
asciilifeform: 'police report at' == 'report written to police'
mircea_popescu: so some guy wrote some things on a piece of paper about what he heard on the news and submitted this to his local police station ?
asciilifeform: he meant 'report to police'
mircea_popescu: "Police report at EU national police agencies, extensively discussing CIA-Wikipedia-Google media control crimes, of which the CIA-Snowden fraud is part."

PeterL: obviously to stop videoing police
decimation: it's not strictly historical but the main author was a journalist who covered the baltimore police for a long time
cazalla: someone is breaking into my home.. best i call the police to come in 10m time because law does not permit me to own a shot gun to blast the cunt in seconds
cazalla: the trajectory of the sun combined with the police lights and lazer mounted drone caused me to run down mr gavin by accident
mircea_popescu: what next, this is a legitimate car crash reason ? "police lights illuminated my cockpit your honor. let the police dept pay."
mircea_popescu: it will iluminate the cockpit less than what fucking police lights do.
davout: i'd tend to agree with asciilifeform, what are all these US police helicopter-chase shows for if not for clearly asserting that "there's nowhere to run" ?
cazalla: the 2 year retention period is sorta bullshit anyway as it's the ISPs who need to keep the data for 2 years, but if a gov dept such as ASIO or the police request that data, they are allowed to keep it forever, so i'm sure they will just request all data so that they can keep it forever (if they aren't already doing it)
BingoBoingo: If it came to replacing my current vehicle I'd prolly start looking at used police crown vics
assbot: Sure smart contracts may replace lawyers, but because they're 'smart' you can't break the law either, so you'll need fewer police.
mircea_popescu: such nonsense tho. "our police department remains comitted to our core values of donuts and shooting the nigger"
assbot: Police searching Houston home of millionaire Robert Durst - Yahoo News ... ( http://bit.ly/1AVVwcP )
mircea_popescu: i dunno if i'm the only one who saw brasil - but whenever i see that sorta thing i remember the workmen that cut the holes for the police to bust into homes.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo from what i hear, the entire polish embassy thing is bs. for one thing, they really didn't do much / nobody even knew existed. for the other, no police reports, or what exactly happened there ?

asciilifeform: (if you want to see one, peek into a police car. for some reason the laptop permanently bolted in place there is inevitably a 'tougbook')
asciilifeform: as always happens in a collapsing police state

asciilifeform: their 'plan', to the extent one could use that word here, appears to have been - to shoot police at random, and then collect their gear, which which to repeat same, ad infinitum
asciilifeform: 'If the police doesn't show up, off you go to your business. If the police does show up, butcher the civillians.' << already sop, palestine, etc. - just minus the bank part
BingoBoingo: punkman: I dunno really. In this one chase followed having fun in the maze with the girl and started when girl began throwing rocks at the police from the maze
thestringpuller: "A converted 24-seat bus, the execution van keeps the appearance of a normal police van on the outside with no markings indicating its purpose. The rear of the vehicle houses a windowless chamber where the execution takes place. Several cameras are present and feed closed-circuit televisions in the front of the van; a recording can be made if desired.

mircea_popescu: kinda why druggies try to steal from hospitals rather than police stations or courthouses.
cazalla: personally, i am capable of driving at any limit although police did not believe such a story
mircea_popescu: read one police report of crime x, you've read half of them. read ten, you've (practically) read them all. clinical psychology is only interesting to the patently insane, as a practice. otherwise all the notes say endlessly the same five or six things. there just aren't that many things to say. ☟︎

BingoBoingo: Re: bipolar - no one complains about feeling manic until the police get involved. Plenty of people spend lots of money of coffee and bolivian marching poweder trying to come close.
pete_dushenski: because no city mayor/police/etc can very well stand in the way of the leaders of the free world
mircea_popescu: i will not be ok with a "no cars" town in which the fucking mayor/police/you get to drive if you feel like
mircea_popescu: the need for police, for instance, is a strict function of population density. places with < 1 person / sqkm do not need any police.
mircea_popescu: decimation: wonder how many lei it takes to get the local romaninan police to 'overlook' your immigration << it's a civilised country. if you don't break the law they don't care. if you show up at the border without proper paperwork you get fined 500 lei (~100 euro) and generally forbidden to reenter for 5 years.

mircea_popescu: if somebody still has a twitter account, be a kitten tweet my last @maigov to see some really embarassed romanian police.
mircea_popescu: incidentally, my measure to resolve the "police violence" thing would be a) everyone with a mental issue must wear a funny hat.
mircea_popescu: attracts a particularly felonious type, too. there's this guy, who claimed he never worked with the secret police, then they found fiddy pounds worth of notes, at which point he declared that it was the patriotic duty of everyone to help the secret police!
mircea_popescu: well the word means false police report for pay. but generally, the sort of late warsaw pact atmosphere.
