police accountability web site - Ed Jewett - 31-05-2011
http://www.copblock.org/
Cop Block is a decentralized community of individuals united by their shared goal of police accountability, education of individual rights and the dissemination of effective tactics to utilize while interacting with police.
We seek to highlight the double standard that some grant to those with badges. By documenting police actions whether they are illegal, immoral or just a waste of time and resources then calling the police stations involved (ideally while recording and then later sharing your conversation), we can work together to bring about transparency and have a real impact.
In addition to this direct pressure on police departments we want to be an educational resource on institutional changes that would curtail the common rights-violations and unaccountability today by those with badges and a place to showcase different techniques, viewpoints and courses of action.
