I've seen enough -- this is the most radical, dangerous, arrogant, out-of-control Supreme Court in American history, and it needs to be treated as such.

The Supreme Court Majority is sadly no surprise. AOC is planning on filing articles of impeachment - liking her style . How horrific to have a supreme court that appears to be violating the very ethos of democracy.

I was a bit shocked to find out last year if a JP does not resign it is a court process to relieve them of JP designation and duties. I was expecting a Law Society process but nope.

The Caliphate Complaint Box provides a vivid first-hand account of the challenges people faced living under the Islamic State. Despite the group’s propaganda effort to highlight a just society with a well-functioning government, the reality was much different.

hmm not really as they have done a lot to get into the legal system. I have been mapping a lot of ours for two years and I would still argue most do not appear to be potentially clinicially MH to this guys extent. Some of the people most active have had a life challenge but a MH umbrella is hmmmm

studies have shown extensively that many of these people in the legal system are not MH . The cases where this is a issue are the ones that are mostly likey to get attention so it will be a problematic theme I think.

I do see people adopt 'sovcit' themes on top of their conspiracy narratives so they don't really have a deep focus on the core ideology of pseduolaw but use those themes in the mix. It has taken a bit of untangling in my data but there are definite differences.

the ones I have been watching over the last two years sometimes use the themes but have no real deep belief in them. There is only one group that I have seen consistently push this theme. And one female in that area picked it up with vigour, she is currently having a govt vacation.

He is a outlier as far as NZ 'sovcits' go, there is only one group that truly blend the two, pretty sure most of us know who that is. This guy , I am told has serious mental health challenges but still very concerning behaviour.

“He was spouting idiotic rubbish on replay; this crazy Magna Carta speak, and something about missing children being in the house"

More a QAnon focus with a blend of Sovcit notions but rather concerning.

I work with a lot of police up and down the country that do care . I’m not saying they are perfect but directing it all at them doesn’t help anyone . Unfortunately even before March our offenders are all unknown offender from any ideology - councils should be hiring guards as well

it isn't illegal the elements of an offence are not there. Under the legislation there has to be more detail in the threat. I know its frustrating but its not the police we need to be shitty at here.

The council do have a obligation under the Health and Safety Act however so they could get security for that reason. And trespass anyone that comes to the library for those reasons.
