WTF? This is a deal breaker for sure. Little Rock Police Dept. is rolling back transparency in government in outright Nazis fashion, obviously, with the support of the City Board of Directors. Protests & legal action is seen as imminent in many freedom loving circles that see this action as overreaching and a blatant spit in the face of the public which is NOT asking but DEMANDING MORE transparency, not the outright fucking theft of our right to know what the hell is going on in this city. MORE TO COME... It's goin' down...the citizens of Little Rock will NOT tolerate LRPD blinding & making this city even more deaf to what's really going on around here, where we live & raise our children.

You can't tell me shit that I don't already know by SEEING it with my own eyes. Li

Arkansas: The Worst Place to Rent in America

Arkansas: The Worst Place to Rent in America Subscribe to VICE News here:  http://bit.ly/Subscribe-to-VICE-News Arkansas is one of the worst places to be a renter in America. It is the only state in the US where tenants are treated as criminals for paying rent late and landlords are not required by law to maintain their properties.  Its failure-to-vacate law lets landlords give tenants a 10-day eviction notice if they are even one day overdue. Tenants who can't or won't leave within that span face fines for every day they remain on the property and up to 90 days in jail.  This makes things difficult for the third of Arkansas's residents who are renters and have legitimate concerns about the properties they are occupying. The combination of failure-to-vacate and the lack of warranty of habitability make it almost impossible for tenants to challenge their landlords for legitimate reasons. It's estimated that criminal evictions occur everyday in Arkansas, resulti

Justice Department: Albuquerque police use of force is unconstitutional Report says police in New Mexico capital 'too frequently' use force against the mentally ill and people in crisis April 10, 2014   2:53PM ET http://corruptionsucks.blogspot.com/2014/06/justice-department-albuquerque-police.html A U.S. Justice Department report said Thursday that Albuquerque police "too frequently" use excessive force against people who pose a minimal threat, and that officers who do so are in breach of the Constitution. The report comes after the New Mexican capital’s police last month  fatally shot James Boyd , a 38-year-old homeless man armed with a knife. Boyd's death — captured on video and widely circulated on the Internet — was the Albuquerque Police Department's second fatal shooting in two weeks. It prompted a demonstration by hundreds of  people who blocked traffic in the city on March 30.  The same day, hacktivist group Anonymous took down the APD's website
