Getting more cops quit their jobs is another part of ongoing essential community aids.
I have a count of 4 so far. 2 RCMP CIRG & 2 VicPD. All 4 quit their jobs after spending hours with me. I made an RCMP CIRG medic tear up & he was one of 2 who quit, shortly after being told to extract me by any means possible. I fought back. I told them that I'm a war survivor & they're all cowards compared to what I've already lived through/overcome - without using any violent weapons. I used tactics used to deprogram longtime cult members on them. I wasn't giving up, without hard fights. I am not scared of cops. My family is & I've had to train them since Dad died. They are now #ACAB too. They understand why I fight fascist cops better now.

Don't talk to cops is still solid advice for most activists. It doesn't apply in blanket form though. There's a few of us longtime veteran activists who will talk to cops. We know how to handle them, from decades of experiences. I don't advise talking to any cops, in general, otherwise.
@PhoenixSerenity@beige.party In general, it’s best to avoid talking to the police because you could unknowingly incriminate yourself, place yourself at the scene of a crime, or even give the police reasonably articulated suspicion which could then lead to a search incident to an arrest. I have a standard line I use to police, “If you would like to speak with me, my consulting rate is 250.00/hour with a four hour rate minimum. The first four hours are payable in full immediately.” I am very serious too.
@housepanther@goblackcat.social 100%. I've been advising not talking to cops for decades. Most folks will incriminate themselves by accident. Unless you have a ton of lived experiences dealing with cops - it's best to shut up & not talk to any of them. I was targeted, along with a few other very vocal & visible activists. RCMP CIRG were hunting for me for months. They were aiming at taking out people like me, with longtime experiences & able to keep the people inspired to fight against colonial capitalist armed peons. They see people like me, as a threat to their paycheques. Fucking greedy fucks.
@PhoenixSerenity@beige.party Yes, police are looking to brand protestors and activists as domestic terrorists or agitators. This is why one exercises their right to remain silent. I am assuming, like the United States, that silence does not imply guilt under the law. Silence, according to both the constitution and case law precedent, does not imply guilt. One is (or should be) presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
@housepanther@goblackcat.social Cops hated it when I kept reading them the dictionary definition of #terrorism & told them -> The dictionary has identified you as #terrorists & since you're all #Canadian citizens - technically, you're all domestic terrorists.

@PhoenixSerenity@beige.party @housepanther@goblackcat.social folks said the weed in BC was strong and, well, this seems like a testimonial to that. Nice!
@PhoenixSerenity@beige.party I see police as agents of the wealthy and agents of the state. They are class traitors.
