Police State

Red light camera execs and Chicago politicians indicted for corruption. No surprise there.

Ferguson teen shot six times including twice in the head.

Ferguson protests reminiscent of 1960s.
"Nixon has imposed a curfew as black protests continue, militarized "police" prowl the streets, and the Black Panthers call for resistance –and, no, we haven’t traveled in a time machine back to the turbulent Sixties. The Nixon in question is Jay Nixon, the liberal Democrat Governor of Missouri, where the black majority town of Ferguson is embroiled in a racially explosive conflict over the police murder of an 18-year-old African-American by a white police officer. And, no, it’s not those Black Panthers – who were long ago neutralized and destroyed by the FBI’s infamous Cointelpro program – it’s the New Black Panther Party, whose role is somewhat more ambiguous."
More parallels are given. That's why this isn't a tipping point like many have suggested.

Holder heads to Ferguson to directly take charge of politicization of the shooting.

Boston PD tested facial recognition software by recording everybody at music festivals.
