The LAPD did something like this, too, back in 2013. A cop was assaulting a woman and she "fell" out of the car. Luckily she survived.
Chicago, IL | Can almost guarantee that everyone shot was shot by police. Looks like they've already changed the headline to reflect it, but the story still says: "it was unclear if [the bystander] was shot by the suspect or police." chicago.suntimes.com/crime/2022/7/2…

If you, like others, are wondering: "what is a 'gang-suppression police car," that's a good question. My guess is the OC Weekly hack who wrote the article I quoted took the term directly from his police source, because it appears literally nowhere else on earth.
This is the article where the quoted text appeared: ocweekly.com/manuel-diaz-oc…
I think it's reasonable to assume that whatever pig was feeding this fucker talking points slipped that "gang-suppression police car" line in and the hack ran with it. It's also more generous to police than saying "undercover car" or "unmarked car."

10 years ago, "on the afternoon of July 21, 2012, two Anaheim cops and a civilian on a ride-along rolled up on an Anna Drive alley in a gang-suppression police car." When 25-year-old, unarmed Manuel Diaz ran, Anaheim pig Nick "Buckshot" Bannallack shot him twice, killing him. Manuel Diaz, killed by Anah...
When the community immediately gathered to discover what police had done - and as Diaz's body laid handcuffed and lifeless in the sweltering, summer sun nearby - Anaheim police then unleashed rubber bullets and a vicious K9 on the neighbors, including a child in a stroller.

Actual nazis and their NATO handlers dragged civilians into a tunnel system under a steel factory to use as human shields as they hid there for 80 days and this is how the NYT describes it...
This is maybe the least murky, most-easily-understood and straightforward event of the entire war and prestige US media is still actively sanitizing the literaly wolfsangel and swastika-saluting fascists involved in it. Amazing.
Sure, not all Ukrainians are Nazis. Good nuance. And Russia is bad, too. Full of fascists itself. Yes. But these goons? These were 100% blood & soil, "glory to Ukraine," actual fucking sieg-heiling Nazi scumfucks and every one of their deaths was an unmitigated win for humanity.

If the world had shaken out a little differently, you could have scholars writing about "copologism" (incessant media apology for police abuse) instead of "copaganda."

It was still up in the air which portmanteau I was going to push harder back in 2012. lol 🤣😉
I'm glad this tweet exists. It jives with my recollection of having heard the word first from Bilal (while at the militant, Home Foreclosure Defense called "Fort (later 'Fuerza') Hernandez" in LA (Van Nuys, specifically) around this exact time.
As I recall, we were sitting around behind the barricades, maybe drinking beer (hey, that's what you do when you're behind actual barricades waiting on an imminent LAPD raid) and Bilal sneered something about #copaganda. Maybe I misheard him. Maybe his speech was slurred.

When you read about Albuquerque police in the coming days, remember that the Obama/Biden-favored "consent decrees" we're starting to see again in 2022 have been in place there since 2014.
Related | “The tragic death of this 15-year-old is a serious matter that warrants a comprehensive review,” the attorney general said. nbcnews.com/news/us-news/n…
