You can't prove anything, you have trouble reading actual video evidence, stay inside your box, chap...........

I believe by 'real' police he means like the cops in the UK, where they arrest poeple for social media posts, while real crime is ignored!

Don't be silly, gawd, that's an out-and-out lie, but expected from a Trump boot ...............

Well I am not aware that the RTP arrest anyone for social media posts, might be the odd defamation case, but certainly not over 30 people a day, like in the UK!

You need to get out from under your rock and look at what is happening in the UK!!

"real" crimes like knife crime, violent assaults, and other serious offenses are not being solved at high rates in the UK—detection and charge/sanction rates remain very low for most categories, especially compared to the volume of incidents.

UK police make approximately 30–33 arrests per day on average for offenses related to online communications and social media posts, based on the most widely cited recent data.This figure comes from a 2025 analysis by The Times (published April 4, 2025), drawing on freedom of information responses and custody data from multiple police forces.

Those figures check out. It should be noted that most do not result in a conviction.

Certainly agree with you!

But the fact that they have police searching for these social media posts and then other police officers actually going out and arresting folks, where they should be looking for 'actual real' crime, is astounding.

The the majority of these 'social media' arrests come to nothing, no conviction, as we agreed, is a total waste of police resources!

In the United Kingdom, police firearm policy varies by constituent countries. In Northern Ireland, all police officers carry firearms whereas in the rest of the United Kingdom, firearms are carried only by specially-trained firearms officers.

1,977 arrested using the Computer Crimes Act since 2020, a great majority for Facebook posts.

You may wish to subscribe to Political Prisoners in Thailand. Mongkhon Thirakot ("Busbas"), an online clothing merchant from Chiang Rai, was sentenced to 50 years for 27 Facebook posts.

We're talking about human lives, numbers don't matter.

Whether or not she was guilty has yet to be determined, but what I don’t agree with is that the ICE agent fired once through the windscreen and then moved around and shot her twice more.

The fact, of the he two close-range shots are a major concern for me.

There was no need for them. She wasn’t a threat.

That was backed up by President Clinton, and of course, me......

Walz is scared. He is posturing as a scared man does. He and Frey both are in such hot water over this fraud in Minnesota they have jumped on the Anti-ICE bandwagon to get the heat off themselves.

Timmy is acting tough but lest it be forgot he’s the same man that bailed out on his troops as soon as they were told they were going to battle. He then claimed he did go to battle with his rifle. He then allowed MPLS to burn.

Frey also allowed his city to burn and let an entire Police Precinct bldg be invaded and burned out. They are both COWARDS… there rhetoric is simply posturing.

His days are numbered because of his dramatically failing health.

Nobody gave him a mandate to order Federal agents to murder citizens in cold blood.

Republicans in Congress could put a stop to this today.

They choose not to and doing so will bring about their own end.

Everything Trump touches dies.

and most of the "supreme court" who enables his dictator moves doesn't seem to realize that dictators will also eliminate courts even supreme one as the dictator himself is the supreme ruler in all regards....just maybe that may dawn on a few of these boot lickers when they finally figure out that trump would love nothing more than to throw ALL judges under the bus as he longs to be supreme ruler...
