didn't even know there was a warrant from a ticket i got 6 months ago. 2 days in county. they kept me for a day after the judge ordered my release. said I "slipped through the cracks"

for expired tags. stripped searched, kept in holding alone all night with nothing but a concrete slab to sleep on and a combined toilet / water fountain. they took my fingerprints, scanned my eyes, made me undress in front of them again, put me in a block, and made me wait. they didn't give me a phone account to call on, didn't give a fuck, and lost me in their system.

for expired license tags

I knew prison sucked, I've hated cops for longer than I can remember, but the cruelty first hand of this system will stick with me forever, and I was only there two days. nothing can communicate what prison is other than being there. it is just a torture facility, nothing else.

i only got out because of DSA comrades annoying them on outside, otherwise I would probably have been in there at least another day.

fuck 12

    Cops are fucking pathetic. Reminds me of the tweets UK police would make about shit they confiscated and one of them was literally just candy. They confiscated candy from some people who have a "suspiciously large amount"

    And they're proud enough to post about it. Scum the lot of em.

      Your comment reminded me of this one too, the pigs posing with their 'homeless quilt' (sic from image source) made out of signs:
