I have heard of those who relish liberal tears. Do they find the tears of laughter as good?

The judge is called "Zia M. Faruqui", who --- if I may be permitted to stereotype for a moment --- I'm going to guess is less likely than the average member of the US population to have white supremacist leanings.Stranger Mouse wrote: Wed Jan 20, 2021 6:27 pm And apparently this guy wasn’t cleared as he thought

Well there wouldn’t be any public evidence of recent informing, would there? But let’s say he is actively informing, at what point do his handlers need to tell him to stop inciting insurrection? Just from an ethical standpoint, but there is quite likely a legal point as well. If your informant is actively causing crime while working for the police as opposed to going along with a group and telling the law about it then at some point the police are responsible for the crime.FlammableFlower wrote: Thu Jan 28, 2021 7:23 am Oo that'll mess with their heads. No evidence he's been informing now, that evidence is all in the past. But, even if he isn't now working as a police informant, it'll certainly throw quite a spanner in the works. Up the levels of paranoia.
Given the police's general support of Trump, and past history of the US police agencies actually shipping firearms to Mexican drug cartels allegedly as part of a sting, they could let him go quite far before they tell him to stop.Grumble wrote: Thu Jan 28, 2021 8:26 amWell there wouldn’t be any public evidence of recent informing, would there?

That was just the first example that caught my eye.In the case of Eric McDavid, alleged to be ring-leader of eco-terrorist cell, ‘game-changing’ documents seen exclusively by the Guardian show informant may have entrapped him
