Florida Has Deemed All Existing Intro to Sociology Textbooks Illegal and Produced Its Own
The Board of Governors overseeing the new curricula includes roofing contractors, insurance execs, and no professors.
Roofing contractors, insurance execs, restauranteurs, and hoteliers delineate higher ed curriculum and policy. Ban books, terminate dissenting professors, declare everything but "The Doctrine" is indoctrination. We are truly living in the dumbest timeline. truthout.org/articles/flo...

"Rules for Thee"βU.S. Gov't Logic:
β’Police have the right to film you in public; you don't have the right to film them.
β’Foreign presidents must be prosecuted for crimes; ours has "absolute" immunity.
β’Overseas, protest is a "fight for democracy." At home, itβs "domestic terrorism."
Irony is dead.

Many have argued that legal standards diverge from public expectations when it comes to police use of force, making some events "lawful but awful." I just published an experiment testing the "Community Expectations Standard" in the Journal of Criminal Justice: authors.elsevier.com/a/1m7Fd_14l7...

My colleagues and I have published a new article in PAJPP examining the relationship between gender and police culture attitudes. Unsurprisingly, men and women share different attitudes toward police work, but diverse departments do not predict differences in men's attitudes. tinyurl.com/yu55dece

The cancellation of research grants without Congressional intervention would be a national disaster. It would have immediate and devastating consequences for the research community and ripple effects throughout the economy and society. A decline in innovation, competitiveness, and national security.

Imagine simultaneously thinking that the federal criminal justice system:
1) is so corrupt that it's perpetrating a "grave national injustice" by convicting and punishing innocent people
And still
2) ensuring it has access the "essential tool" of killing people as punishment.

I was struck by the mixture of things I agreed with (ofc better MH provision is preferable to police picking up the pieces) and what felt like naivety that abolishing the institution of policing wouldn't leave a requirement for 'policing', incl the use of coercive powers at times.
