HB 71 / SB 74: New penalties for protesting without a permit

Would introduce new criminal and civil penalties that could cover participants in a spontaneous protest or other demonstration without a permit. The bill creates a new felony offense that would cover someone who “knowingly… obstructs or blocks a public place.” While it includes exceptions for “obstruction” authorized by a permit or otherwise authorized by the law, the new offense would clearly cover unpermitted protests—particularly large protests in public plazas, parks, streets, sidewalks or other places that might “obstruct” the movement of nonparticipants. If the protest “substantially interferes” with someone’s access to a government building, or “interferes” with an emergency responder, the offense would be a Class C felony, punishable by up to five years in prison and $50,000. In all other cases it would be a Class A misdemeanor, punishable by up to one year in jail and $25,000. In addition to criminal penalties, the bill creates expansive civil liability for protesters who block public places. A person “whose passage is obstructed” could sue a protester for $10,000 if their rights were infringed, $50,000 if their property was damaged, and $100,000 if they were personally injured – in addition to attorney’s fees and costs. Under the bill, civil liability extends to anyone who “directly or indirectly, by words or action, aids, encourages, or authorizes the conduct,” including by “advising” another person to engage in the conduct or “conspiring” to engage in the conduct. It also extends to anyone outside the state of Alaska if they “knew or had reason to know” that their acts were likely to lead to the obstruction. A similar bill was introduced in 2024, though with lesser criminal penalties.

Ich fürchte, das stimmt. Zumal auch #Trump die #Klimakrise gar nicht mehr leugnet, sondern seiner Anhängerschaft „Grundstücke am Strand“ von #Alaska verheißt. Oder gar einen #Kryptostaat in #Grönland, für den bereits Millionen Dollar gesammelt werden.

Die Ideologie dahinter nennt sich #Longtermism / #Langzeitismus - und sie wächst, ja… 💁‍♂️🔥🤔 scilogs.spektrum.de/natur-des-

“I never, ever thought that I would ever see the day, in my lifetime, that Tlingits could return to the Homeland,” says local resident Jeff Skaflestad in the opening of the film, “Sanctuary for the Future.” But in 2016, thanks to many years’ work and a collaboration between the National Park Service and the Hoonah Indian Association—the tribal government of the Huna Tlingit clans—Xunaa Shuká Hít marked a momentous homecoming.

I’ve spent hundreds of nights watching the aurora in Alaska, but this night at Angel Rocks is still burned into my memory. I hiked up at sunset, found a spot on a rocky outcrop, and waited — and when the lights came, they came fast. One of the brightest, most intense aurora I’ve ever seen, racing across the sky and lighting up the whole valley below.

See more aurora in my gallery: photos.lwpetersen.com/Gallerie

A vibrant display of the northern lights arcs across the night sky in shades of green with subtle hints of yellow, twisting in fast-moving bands. The aurora stretches diagonally from the top left corner down toward the horizon on the right. Below, a large rocky outcrop at Angel Rocks in Alaska rises from the snow-covered landscape, with patches of bare rock and scattered small trees clinging to its slopes. In the distance, rolling hills and ridges, partly covered in snow, stretch toward the horizon under a deep, clear sky dotted with stars.

"The Anchorage Police Department (APD) has concluded its three-month trial of Axon’s Draft One, an AI system that uses audio from body-worn cameras to write narrative police reports for officers—and has decided not to retain the technology. Axon touts this technology as “force multiplying,” claiming it cuts in half the amount of time officers usually spend writing reports—but APD disagrees.

The APD deputy chief told Alaska Public Media, “We were hoping that it would be providing significant time savings for our officers, but we did not find that to be the case.” The deputy chief flagged that the time it took officers to review reports cut into the time savings from generating the report. The software translates the audio into narrative, and officers are expected to read through the report carefully to edit it, add details, and verify it for authenticity. Moreover, because the technology relies on audio from body-worn cameras, it often misses visual components of the story that the officer then has to add themselves."
