The Police Department was found to be routinely torturing the citizens it was supposed to protect! According to the FEDS, officers with multiple charges are involved in criminal activities within the Department.
Cop Cities, also known as police state training centers, share certain characteristics with Hitler's fascist militarized Gestapo. Both systems are characterized by a strong emphasis on authority and control, often at the expense of individual freedoms and civil liberties. In Cop Cities, law enforcement agencies are granted extensive powers to train public servants techniques of military occupation in hostile enclaves to maintain order and security without thought to civil and constitutional rights, sometimes leading to abuses of power and violations of those ignored and commonly held irrevocable human rights.
Similarly, the Gestapo under Hitler's regime operated with unchecked authority, using fear, deadly force, torture and intimidation to suppress dissent and opposition. The Gestapo's tactics included surveillance, interrogation, and physical violence against anyone perceived as a threat to the state. This oppressive approach mirrors the heavy-handed tactics sometimes expressed as options to be employed in the instruction of modern-day Cop Cities.
While it is essential to maintain law and order in society, it is crucial to strike a balance between security and individual rights. Excessive militarization and authoritarianism, whether in the form of the culture of Cop Cities or Gestapo-like organizations, can erode the foundations of democracy and lead to widespread injustice. By examining the parallels between these systems, we can better understand the dangers of unchecked power and work towards creating more just and equitable safe societies.
The timeline of facility building planned, or construction began after 2020. Black Coral Inc researched areas due to information gathered regarding the Atlanta Cop City, and the acceleration of the project which occurred after the uprisings which followed the police murders of both George Floyd and Rayshard Brooks. The increase public angst exacerbated by Climate change, economic woes and decreased fertility we view as a direct result of climate and increased presence of endocrine disruptors in the environment of many American cities fueled the inquiry.
The initial investigation identified 24 projects being planned or under construction in various locations following the 2020 protests, underscoring the need for further research updates. The research scope was broadened to encompass not just urban areas but rural communities as well. In mid-October 2023, a state-by-state search revealed 47 cities/counties with documentation (meeting minutes, construction/architecture firms, news articles, and/or press releases) verifying the projects, most of which were slated for predominantly Black or BIPOC-dense areas.
Further inquiries reaffirmed the initial 47 projects, and additional ones were discovered in 2024. That same year, another organization compiled a spreadsheet, linked below, detailing any project related to the evaluation, planning, approval, construction, or inauguration of renovations or expansions of Public Safety, Police Training Academies, or Departments in any state.
Law enforcement wants more drones to work in tandem with homegrown militarized police, whose role will change away from serving communities to enforcing compliance with law enforcement directives and we’ll probably see many more of them overhead as police departments seek to implement a popular project justifying the deployment of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs): the “drone as first responder” (DFR).
Police Drone First Responder (DFR) programs involve a fleet of drones, which can range in number from four or five to hundreds of drones. Information gathered will assist the federal drone programs. In response to 911 calls and other law enforcement calls for service, a camera-equipped drone is launched from a regular base (like the police station roof) to get to the incident first, giving responding officers a view of the scene before they arrive. In theory and in marketing materials, the advance view from the drone will help officers understand the situation more thoroughly before they get there, better preparing them for the scene and assisting them in things such as locating wanted or missing individuals more quickly. Police call this “situational awareness.”
