In this case you'd be performing an illegal search and should not have your hands in their pockets. How could they know you were going to illegally search them? If they're a law abiding citizen with razors in their pockets and you illegally search them, those cuts are on you.
Now, as for how this would play out in front of obviously corrupt police institutions — yeah you'd likely have evidence planted on you for pulling a stunt like this.
This post is heavily downvoted because it's posted on .ml . You might want to try pulling your head out of your ass, because .ml is 100% an echo chamber.
You're right, and I don't blame you for being a passive user.
Here, you can try it yourself — pay attention to users like Yogthos or Cowbee. 9 times out of 10 you end with threads of them monologuing to themselves against deleted comments.
Average 'ML users aren't that bad' post defending blatant propagandists.
No we're not talking 'socialism is actually good and here's why' posts, we're talking posts like 'China, the ethnostate, is a bastion of tolerance compared to a place like the U.S.'.
Fuck no to everything you've said supporting federation with .ml . The people on the platform deserve their fate if they can't see through the bullshit, I feel no differently about MAGA.
Yeah I simply do not understand how you can be an ML user and have somehow missed the blatant abuse of moderation powers surrounding users like Cowbee.
You either just don't pay attention or you aren't on Lemmy much.
These fucking assholes are looking at different cameras to seem like they're normal human beings, and that these pictures are taken naturally — rather than being staged.
