These are old KMT types, retired naval officers, who hate Taiwan and view it as a place of hated exile, and fed them PRC/KMT propaganda lines. Easy to see this. The two authors of the CSIS report talked to the wrong people, didn't do their homework.

New event! 📆4th Oct 🕐13:00 Taiwan Time LGBTQIA Friends in Taipei will hold protest "Homophobic Cops in My City? It's More Likely Then You Think! Oppose Police Harassment of LGBTQ+ Venues!" At Ximen Red House Police Station Details: www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=1...
[[ 緊急行動,敬請轉發參加 ]]
抗議北市警局不當執法!反對警察騷擾同志場所!
[[ 緊急行動,敬請轉發參加 ]]
地點:西門紅樓派出所前
時間:10/4 13:00 ~
十月三日下午,萬華分局西門町派出所突襲搜索台北市知名 BDSM 酒吧 Commander D。警方雖聲稱持有搜索票,但拒絕出示給現場民眾。對於現場有身心障礙人士甚至涉嫌歧視稱「殘障也可以做愛喔?」店長抗議警方行動結果遭「上銬」,甚至被要求下跪。記者也隨警察進入現場,視偵查不公開原則如敝屣。
搜索行動持續接近五小時,警方事後面對民眾質疑,卻聲稱「沒有搜索只是盤查」,更告訴民眾「有不滿就去提告」。
我們是一群在台北生活的酷兒。我們是一群在萬華讀書、戀愛、分手、做音樂、搞社運的人。我們反對臺北市警局之過激行動,並要求:
1. 針對萬華分局:交代行動原委,並且正式為員警執法行為時之態度與歧視性言論道歉。
2. 針對北市警局:應說明針對同志場所(Commander D、Hunt、Locker Room 等)進行歧視性執法之原委與正當性,並且咎責、道歉。
3. 針對北市府:針對今年多次歧視性執法,蔣萬安市長應說明其原委與意圖,同時應檢討北市府是否真的同志友善?
敬請各界朋友轉傳,並誠摯邀請各位酷兒與盟友,一起加入我們的抗議行動。

At Camp East Montana, an ICE detainee's death was ruled a homicide after guards "restrained" him. Federal investigators later found missing or destroyed evidence, while the camp's contractor failed to provide required use-of-force and death reports.

A detainee's death at ICE's largest camp was ruled a homicide. GAO found the evidence 'missing or destroyed'
Camp East Montana opened without the inspection ICE policy requires. Three men held there died within six weeks. Across the country, people shot by immigration agents are often the ones charged.

Earlier this evening a federal jury struck down a brazenly unconstitutional traffic stop scheme "that turned mass surveillance of American drivers into a pipeline of pretextual traffic stops and unconstitutional searches." ij.org/press-releas...
The unconstitutional program ran in five steps: First, surveillance cameras across the state and country recorded license plates and logged when and where cars went. Second, analysts and anonymous tipsters flagged ordinary travel, like driving toward the border and back, as suspicious. Third, Bexar County sheriff’s deputies invented a traffic violation to justify pulling over the flagged driver. Fourth, deputies pulled drivers into their front seats, interrogated them and asked consent to search their car. Finally, fifth, if the driver refused to consent to a search, a K-9 alert from a manipulated dog supplied the probable cause to search anyway. This practice happened for four years to countless motorists.
