    Yeah no. Not a good idea to give more funding to the police while there is documented evidence these guys want to shoot protesters with famas to kill them.

        For context, few years ago there was a big ecological protest at a water storage construction site, the police was there in mass and escalated the situation very aggressively. Many protesters got seriously injured and rescue was blocked by police to access the site. Later “investigation” declared the police force didn’t do anything wrong. Only recently independent journalists managed to leak the bodycam recordings with audio where you can hear the police gleefully shooting the protesters straight with flashall and teargas grenade launchers and expressing the wish to kill the protestors and wish they had Famas to “teach them”.
