Columbine Massacre (1927)

Mon Nov 21, 1927

On this day in 1927, the Columbine Massacre took place when a crowd of more than 500 miners and their supporters in Serene, Colorado was fired on by a militia of ex-police officers, killing six workers.

On October 18th, 1927, the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW) called a strike of all mine workers, a call which was quickly heeded in Colorado. Nearly all the mines in Colorado were closed, and the dozen still open did so using imported scab labor.

For the still-operating Columbine mine, scab workers were housed in Serene, which was fortified with barbed wire on the fences and armed guards.

Mass rallies had been held by miners outside the Columbine mine in Serene for several weeks and, on November 21st, 1927, a crowd of more than five hundred workers was fired on by an ex-cop militia. The militia was armed with machine pistols, rifles, riot guns and tear gas grenades.

The workers were fired upon after a dispute on whether or not they could enter the town of Serene. The event is known as the Columbine Massacre. Six people were killed, all miners. No member of the militia was ever held accountable for the violence of that day.

A Hong Kong court harshly sentenced 45 prominent pro-democracy figures on November 19, 2024, on baseless national security charges that underscored Hong Kong’s abysmal human rights situation, Human Rights Watch said today. The Hong Kong government should quash the convictions and immediately release all of those convicted.

Three judges handpicked by Hong Kong’s chief executive sentenced 37 men and 8 women to prison terms ranging from 4 years and 2 months to 10 years. The defendants were earlier convicted of “conspiracy to commit subversion” under article 22 of the National Security Law for helping to organize or run as candidates in an informal primary election in 2020 aimed at winning seats in the then-semi-democratic Legislative Council.

“It’s now a crime carrying up to 10 years in prison to try and run in and win an election in Hong Kong,” said Maya Wang, associate China director at Human Rights Watch. “The cruel sentences for dozens of prominent democracy activists show just how fast Hong Kong’s civil liberties and the rule of law have nosedived in the four years since the Chinese government imposed the draconian National Security Law on the city.”

A joint report published by five rights group from Germany urges the European Union to ban advertising.

The EU has established important cornerstones to protect online users in the shape of the Digital Services Act (DSA) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). At the same time, the reactions of large corporations to this legislation show that a paradigm shift in the online advertising market is still needed, as the advertising industry is persistently undermining efforts to prevent manipulative practices, the rights group Germanwatch writes on its website.

Alternative (e.g. contextual) advertising models create opportunities for reaching people beyond the omnipresent tracking and targeting, and thereby protecting them in data processing operations. To bolster alternative advertising models, the new European Commission should take digital fairness seriously and push for a ban on personalised advertising.

Das Ergebnis: Jedes vierte Kind, jeder vierte Jugendliche bewertet seine allgemeine Lebensqualität als gering. Jeder fünfte Junge, jedes fünfte Mädchen hat psychische Probleme oder tendiert dazu.

Julian Schmitz, wissenschaftlicher Projektleiter der Studie von der Universität Leipzig, spricht bei der psychischen Belastung von Kindern und Jugendlichen von einem Thema für die gesamte Gesellschaft: Psychische Erkrankungen seien in Deutschland der Hauptgrund für Arbeitsunfähigkeit und drei Viertel aller psychischen Erkrankungen begännen bis zum 24. Lebensjahr.

Quelqu'un pourrait m'expliquer ce que ça changerait? Google aurait toujours chromium et AOSP. Il serait toujours les maitres, non? Ou alors Microsoft prendrait sa place en forçant l'utilisation de edge chromium.
