Law enforcement agencies across Southern California violated state law more than 100 times last month by sharing information from automated license plate readers with federal agents, records show.
The Los Angeles Police Department and sheriff’s departments in San Diego and Orange counties searched license plate readings on behalf of Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection, according to a database of queries obtained by anti-surveillance group Oakland Privacy and provided to CalMatters.
So senate bill 34? What kind of teeth does that have?
“The bill would, in addition to any other sanctions, penalties, or remedies provided by law, authorize an individual who has been harmed by a violation of these provisions to bring a civil action in any court of competent jurisdiction against a person who knowingly caused the harm.”
Oh, so none whatsoever. The penalty for violating this law is NOTHING unless someone goes through years and years of legal process to maybe, possibly get a law enforcement agency to the settlement table where they will get off Scott free once they wave around enough tax dollars to make the problem go away.
This is what I keep talking about. The laws for us have definite, immediate consequences. The laws for oligarchs and their thugs are VERY different. The entire legal system needs to be burned to the ground, the ashes pissed on, and a new system needs to be built somewhere far away. With blackjack. And hookers.
People who want to be police shouldn’t be police.
People we want as leaders don’t want to be leaders.
So… Arrest and fire them.
