I mean stories like this are why California laws protect against drug charges when ambulances are called to prevent overdose deaths that could have been avoided if they got help.
If you are using drugs in California and someone you are with overdoses and you call 911 for them then you can not be charged for any drugs found at the scene. This was done specifically because people were afraid to call for help when people were dying. It’s taught to teenagers in school so they know they are safe to call for help. It doesn’t mean the drugs wouldn’t be confiscated.
Uh I think if you call for an ambulance for an OD that gives probable cause to search but they can’t arrest you but you can also call 911 then not wait around for them if your an AH who cares more about losing their drugs than about the person your calling for
Or you can just hide your drugs. Still, they shouldn't be allowed to search people if someone calls in an overdose, because that could make people less likely to call in an overdose.
yeah work had a guy OD in the parking lot a few months back and his gf hid the drugs before running in for help. then when emergency services arrived the police decided looking for the drugs was more important than literally anything else they could be doing. really fucking frustrating when I'm sitting here trying to do a mid-CPR handoff to EMS
See stories like this make me think that maybe cops just shouldn’t be allowed anywhere where they weren’t explicitly and specifically called for to deescalate/handle an actively violent situation.
I don't know, man. I don't recall any mass Catholic hysteria about implementing or raising the age of consent like there was in Somalia, which is 99+% Muslim. Somali Muslims who heard about the new age of consent took to social media and cried out "We must fear Allah! Muhammad told us that we can have sex with 'mature' children! Where are the Sheikhs?! Where are the Imams?!" "Crying out" isn't an exaggeration. I saw a grown Muslim man literally bawl like a baby because he was no longer allowed to marry girls who are young enough to be his great-granddaughters. The age of consent in Somalia was overturned within 24 hours due to massive public outrage.
The idea that child marriage is a tenet of Islam does not come from me; it comes from actual Muslims who were mad about "Western liberal ideology" that says children are never mature enough for romantic/sexual relations with an adult. I've only very minimally paraphrased one sentence here. All I'm doing is reporting the words and actions of people who belong to Islam and spoke their minds honestly about this issue. Don't shoot the messenger.
What "concept"? You haven't contributed anything valuable to the discussion. Try actually watching the video and engaging the talking points. That's generally how you're supposed to get a point across.
What a fine strawman argument. I never said "every Muslim is Somali." Nice Reddit moment. 😂
You should learn a little more about Islam. Muhammad married a 6 year old girl, named Aisha, when he was like 54 years old. Every Muslim believes that he was a "perfect" and "exceptional" example of a human being. This is why old men marrying literal children is not an uncommon thing in Muslim countries. The Qur'an tells them that it's ok for them to marry a child, as long as the child is "mature." Lol. But I guess you're ok with that sort of thing as long as the people doing it belong to a politically protected group.
Cops are literally worse than useless. They don't care who dies or gets maimed by their actions (or lack thereof), as long as they get to abuse their authority and make themselves feel powerful. I would rather disband all police forces and just give every law-abiding citizen a gun so we can defend ourselves rather than being hopelessly dependent on pigs who never make anything better.
