To Duck and Swerve: or Sanctimonious Cocksuckers

When the mad-murderer dispatched around 50 people at a nightclub in Florida, I made some snide comment on a news web-site. A cop noticed it, and became my troll. I suppose my mucking with the "To Protect and Serve" mantra was too much for him. That was before we had Scott Peterson, the intrepid school-safety officer:the brave man who stood outside a Florida school, while kids were being slaughtered inside.

This is not so serious. This comment is mockery of sanctimonious cocksuckers, who spout shit. Sanctimony like this:

“Our CHP officers in L.A. County a few years ago created a community engagement team,” said Stanley. “That team works directly with educational leaders, spiritual leaders, political leaders, and other community leaders in the African American community, so we can get better ties and be better engaged. Find out what their needs are and what services they’re looking for. I’ve been meeting with several leaders down there in Southern California.”

In 2015, Assembly Bill 953 was enacted which prohibits a peace officer from engaging in racial profiling and requires training to prescribe patterns, practices, and protocols that prevent racial profiling. Existing law requires the Legislative Analyst’s Office to conduct a study of the data that is voluntarily collected by jurisdictions that have instituted a program of data collection with regard to racial profiling.

AB 953 requires the Racial and Identity Profiling Advisory Board produce a report each year on past and current statuses of racial and identity profiling with policy recommendations for eliminating it. Stanley is a RIPA board member and will be implementing this process into the CHP in July.

“I can use the feedback from that data and bring it back to my executive staff and to my personnel and say, ‘Here is what the data is showing us that is going on in these communities, here are the stops they are making and here is how they’re handling them,’” Stanley said. “It’ll give us a lot of feedback we can use for training and to enhance our operations, and to enhance our trust with the communities that we serve.”

Stanley's minions are too busy trying to intimidate those who criticise cops than to look at their own data. Data that they have more of than anyone else. Data from the CHP, for the first six months of the RIPA-collection period, exceeds that of all other Wave One LEAs when combined.

A quick look, at over 1 million CHP records, tells me this much (it is good being Asian):

Collecting, Categorizing and Analyzing Demographic Data in San Diego in the years of the Profiling Plague.

A letter essentially identical to the below was sent to Chief Lansdowne on the date indicated. I refrained from using my preferred expression "bullshit detector" and instead used the lame "balderdash detector." I must and will do better. February 15, 2014 William Lansdowne Chief, San Diego Police Department By email to : sdpdpolicechief @pd.sandiego.gov Subsequent to my communication, to you, that contained my analysis of 2013 stop data , I located one or more Official San Diego documents that contained other analyses and officer comments. The analyses were not at odds with mine. So were the observations and comments, including those of the officers and supervisors. I harbour no doubt that you are familiar with all of them. Aside from directing you to the obvious, i.e. the possibility of constituting stop analysis data from Citation data [1] , I will let you re-read them for yourself.

Berkeley; the bastion of progressive values?

April 26, 2018 Yesterday, I sent the within to the Mayor of Berkeley and others, in the mayor's office, as listed. Much nothing will come of it; not until Berkeley is sued for some atrocity in policing. Believe me, it is just a matter of time. Doubtless we will have the usual protestations, denials and promises. The lot below shall not be able to say that they did not know of the rot; the oppression; the bias. Berkeley's data is, for want of a polite expression, piss-poor. This opinion may be partly driven by the fact that the data is not in the form that Berkeley represents it to be; that over 3,400 records have no demographic data, and that it leaves out some of the most basic, the most common, policing data elements. On the other hand, it carries data of other persons involved in the stop, but one cannot determine who is driver and who is passenger. It is, as it is, but it tells the same old story, and it tells plenty; albeit less vividly than most other places. Mayor...

Even More Fatally Flawed And Still Unfit for Purpose or The Great Distraction

Subject: RIPA Advisory Board – More Fatally Flawed and Still Unfit for Purpose I wanted to wait until I came into possession of the actual 2025 Annual RIPA Report, before writing this, but I found myself between a rock and a hard place. My strongest motivator was fear; fear of reading a newspaper or web-account of the RIPA results or seeing a TV Broadcast that is ruled by lies and/or happy talk. I remember last year too well. I also feared that, as was the case with the reports from the last few years, the RIPA Report, to which the press has early or immediate access, would not become available to me for several days. Because of that, I decided to write this. “Racial Discrimination is an inference that may be drawn from Racial Disparities.” In the absence of other inferences, or plausible explanations, our choices become limited. There is an abundance of racial disparities to be found in RIPA data. I am unaware of any adverse disparity that has...
