"If you give me six lines written by the hand of the most honest of men, I will find something in them which will hang him." -- Cardinal Richelieu Privacy protects personal dignity, not just illicit behavior. We close bathroom doors, keep journals, and have intimate conversations not because we are breaking the law, but because we value personal modesty and boundaries. We are quickly approaching a time when we are al…

Nobody is installing surveillance cameras in you bathroom.

They would really, really like to. Kids at school vape in there, people do drugs in public ones.

> Dating the police is just such an astoundingly egregious violation of this principle There are still quite a few people who think the police are the friendly government-provided customer service agents of life, although I've watched this viewpoint decline markedly over the last twenty years at least. Locally, a woman went on a hiking date with a Phoenix cop and wound up dead [0]. Notably, the woman was from New Eng…

IDK, In my town that is what they are, they come when called, they are respectful, they live in the town they service. I only see problems with police [generally speaking] in two scenarios. 1) Very large cities like NYC where police don't [cannot afford] to live in the area they work in. 2) Very small citie where the mayor, judge and sherrif are all related.

That sounds great for you, but the point is: what if they were not inclined to do those things?

What if they didn’t come when called? What if they weren’t respectful? What if they weren’t a part of your community?

What recourse do you have against cops?

A female high on meth gets disoriented and dies from heat exposure in the mountains. As per article she willingly separated from the guy whom she sent to the top of the peak "to continue to get pic for social media". He probably should have know better and just go down with her and call it a day, or not getting high on meth in dangerous environment in the first place but thats about it. Unless you have a better artic…

Meth and amphetamine are very different drugs, but a bootlicker wouldn't know the difference. She could also have been spiked and left to die by the cop, can't really know without a proper investigation, which the police never subject themselves to.

They are different drugs in the sense that methamphetamine will cause more serotonin release and will act longer than amphetamine, but they will both cause increase in blood pressure, increase heart rate and increase internal temperature. The rest of your comment is right though.

Meth and amphetamine also have very different connotations.

More like his widow than his ex - he was unable to ever contact her, which is what made it cute rather than creepy.

Someone stalking you is not cute even if they don't try to talk to you

All about perspective! Plenty of romance stories that start out with stalking. (Though I guess from a social normative conversation pov, you would want to keep up the kayfabe).

In case you didn't read it, the 9th circuit upheld the use of Flock cameras. The precedence is as high as it gets, short of a supreme Court decision: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48636421 You're being exposed to a very specific group of people when you read Hacker News or Reddit. Plenty of people are happy to have Flock cameras in their neighborhood on account of the improved ability to investigate crime.

Are you referring to the IJ case? https://ij.org/case/norfolk-virginia-camera-surveillance/

I'm referring to the case I linked.

This shouldn't be hard to understand. Don't talk to the police, without your attorney present, under any circumstances whatsoever. Dating the police is just such an astoundingly egregious violation of this principle that I can only wonder what, if anything, those people are thinking. Anyway, the key takeaway seems to don't date anyone who dates the police. Firstly, because it directly puts your own safety at risk, as…

"Don't talk to the police, without your attorney present, under any circumstances whatsoever." Oh but I did. Multiple times, without a lawyer ever, how shocking: "Hey, my bicycle was stolen, I need to file it so I get insurance payout" "Hey, this demonstration and the roadblock of yours for guarding it, will it be around for much longer?" "Hey, nice weather, isn't it?" (Misdirecting small talk, while they were search…

The key statement here is "I don't live in the US"

I grew up outside of the US and immigrated here in 1995. US police are on a completely different level.

Freedom to take pictures of public spaces?

Freedom to use a network of cameras to take pictures of random people and track their behaviors and location without their consent?

Thankfully the founders of my country set up a system where we are allowed to watch whatever we want in public.

I don't think "public" would qualify in this case. Or at least it would be severely in dispute.

Her source of trust was instagram. The cop’s instagram led her to travel to Arizona and be with him. She was convinced by his instagram that she agreed to do all of this. That’s really dumb and it’s what you get playing stupid games with strangers on the internet.

Says the person using social media.
