tl;dr Poppy seed muffins test positive for opiates, can't tell the difference between THC (what gets you high) and CBD (what eases pain) in weed, tea tests positive for cocaine.

Last July, a pig from the Lakewood, Colorado Police Department was vacationing in Jackson, Wyoming when she saw a brown kid running. Naturally, the off-duty, out-of-state pig drew a firearm and threatened to blow the brown kid's head off if he didn't stop and do exactly as the pig said.
Turns out the kid, who was 17 at the time, was late for work and running to catch his bus. So yeah, if anyone asks, Running to Catch a Bus While Hispanic is indeed a thing.
This one's in the news thanks to the civil lawsuit the kid filed against the pig. Assault, battery, false imprisonment, intentional infliction of emotional distress ... it's like a law school torts exam up in here. With any luck, the kid will obtain a judgment of sufficient size that the pig will be forking over a cut of every paycheck she gets for the rest of her life.

Jury deadlocks on officer who shot unarmed man on the ground with his hands up. Even better the man who he hit he assumed was a hostage being held by a reported gun man, a severly autistic man sitting with a silver toy. Now maybe had he heard the ‘hostage’ shout it wasnt a gun he wouldnt have shot at him but he made sure to be out of ear shot at over 150ft away and probably wearing ear protection. Luckily he’s a crap shot and stopped firing before he killed anyone.
In perfect florida ‘you get the murderous authoritarian regime you support’ fashion the Jury foreman shook the cops hand and fucking appologized that he couldnt get him off that day.
So I think we can expect more thread posts from north miami beach crack shot officers.

It is the latest fallout since the advocacy group The Plain View Project earlier this month released thousands of Facebook posts and comments by current and former police officers that range from racist memes, to posts celebrating violence and messages containing Islamophobic themes, among other offensive material.
Since the data dump, internal affairs officials in police departments including Phoenix, St. Louis and Dallas are probing whether the distasteful and sometimes violent material should warrant disciplinary action or terminations.
In Philadelphia, Ross said Wednesday that at least "several dozen" of the 72 officers now on desk duty will be disciplined and others will be fired, but he did not provide specifics, including any of the names of those who have been taken off their regular duties.
Fake ETA: Oh boo hoo, their free speech rights, etc.

The officer showed up at the home of a guy who wanted to complain about him, forced his way inside, tased him, pepper sprayed him, punched him in the face breaking his nose, then cited him allowing his broken nose to bleed on the officer's uniform. pic.twitter.com/Ohbihp0USs
The sad thing I realized after researching the police violence in Boston Saturday all day -- watching video after video, frame by frame -- was that every instance of pepper spray was either directly from or instigated by *Exactly One Officer*. https://t.co/VZs3OJAy2X
The president of the National Fraternal Order of Pigs is concerned that those evil Dems in Congress plan to give Trump's due process rights the unarmed black child treatment.
