CopBlock - Idaho is an off shoot from the original CopBlock.org We are working to ensure police and any other member of society are held responsible for their actions which include corrupt systems, institutions, politicians, etc. CopBlock - Idaho recognizes Idaho CopBlock and is not her to challenge them rather work in conjunction with them. The more CopBlockers the better. We do not “hate cops.”
We believe that no one – not even those with badges – has extra rights. The failure to realize and act on that is to our detriment. By focusing the disinfecting light of transparency on public officials we safeguard not just our rights but those of future generations. Those of us who write for and are responsible for CopBlock - Idaho affirm that violence is not condoned except in the defense of self or others. We highlight the double standard that some grant to those with badges by pointing to and supporting those harmed. By documenting police actions whether they are illegal, immoral or just a waste of time and resources then putting direct pressure on the individuals responsible (ideally while recording and then later sharing), we can work together to bring about transparency and have a real impact. CopBlock.org is a resource for the education of individual rights through the dissemination of different viewpoints and tactics that seek to curtail the all-too-common rights-violations and unaccountability that today exists. By focusing the disinfecting light of transparency on public officials we safeguard not just our rights but those of future generations.
