I was thinking along the same lines, but want to add a thing: I thought that the justice system should operate independent, as in: without political, financial or industrial influences. By the book.

Birds Beware: The Praying Mantis Wants Your Brain
Tom Vaughan, a photographer then living in Colorado’s Mancos Valley, kept a hummingbird feeder outside his house. One morning, he stepped through the portico door and noticed a black-chinned hummingbird dangling from the side of the red plastic feeder like a stray Christmas ornament.

With a long carreer as graffiti writer I think the lines somehow have that distinctive motion and shaping in them.
It is scary because she is a victim as victims come: wounded, blinded by atrocities, full of hatred but trying to contain herself. She was a subject to idiocies of a few people from the other side of the planet. She is a number of conflict. Collateral. On the one hand I feel empathy, compassion for the girl, but all at the same time I feel pure hatred for the perpetrator.

Trump’s MS-13 Deportations Cause Chaos in El Salvador
MS-13, or Mara Salvatrucha, has long been known as one of the deadliest street gangs in the world, but under the Trump administration the fight against this criminal network of mostly Salvadoran young men, many of whom are immigrants, has ramped up dramatically.

Wouldn't that be an act of war (as if sanctions aren't acts of war already)?

A friend of me started talking about this new Apple phone, but I couldn't hear him. I took off my headphone and turned down the volume with one of the several buttons on my Wileyfox Spark X (with a rooted Nougat and when I have grown a pair of bullocks and obtained a micro sd, even Arch Linux), all bought on a shoestring-budget, and asked him why he's looking at that stuff. He likes it, because it is slick. I showed him my phone, with a silk like back with a sweet logo laser engraved and bronze-chromed and told him the price. He loved the software and I showed him my colourmeter (essential for murals and so) and the way I turn off tracking in Firefox. And the obligatory "look, even a flashlight!". It's a cult, but my buddy and many others refuse to believe they are wasting their money on software that's free for everybody and so cheaply and abundantly available when you are looking for a phone to buy. Hell, there's even a thriving secondhand market for it.
Anyways, I think Apple sucks, but they did one thing good with this move, a thing with the user in mind, not the bottomline (or not directly).

So, if I understood the article correctly, they accumulated the data where exactly? Probably police-reports and files from all cases since long ago. Well, I would prefer to say it nice, but the software was not more racist than the police, perhaps just as racist, but it hurts kinda harder when it are raw facts (about the racism), instead of beating-round-the-bush facts.

From experience: yes. And preferably for the rest of your life. Food and so. Anyway, back to toiling and grinding at the easle. Because it doesn't earn shit, doesn't mean I am not passionate about creating. ;-)

Making war illegal changed the world. But it’s becoming too easy to break the law
As the rules prohibiting the use of force are crumbling, we risk returning to a world where might is right and war is legal.

UN Security Council Resolution 2375 on North Korea: Preparation for War?
There is now a discernible pattern to US manipulation of the UN Security Council when it wants UN endorsement for US-NATO acts of aggression. It is a formula which led to the destruction of Iraq and Libya, and in 1950-1953 led to the destruction of North Korea and most of South Korea. This deadly trajectory is once again becoming visible, and the code is revealed in the three words: “all necessary measures,” which are deciphered to mean US-NATO aggressive war.

That's pretty smart of that symbiot, because there are two parties at win and then the creature is not parasitic. By making the prey not scared, makes them easy targets and ensures the symbiot that his host stays alive and the symbiot can keep on procreating. That's a win-win situation and sort of proves that cats are not smart or nice, their symbiotic partners are. Or act that way.
