Protests have taken place in Warsaw with members of the public angry the Polish capital is hosting a NATO summit. A few hundred demonstrators gathered in the city to march towards the national stadium where the conference was taking place.

Some of the protesters were carrying placards, such as "Stop NATO, Stop the War" and "Yankees, go home" as they marched from Charles de Gaulle Monument towards the national stadium.

"There were over 300 of us, which is not bad at all given the torrential rain and the circumstances. Everyone is in great spirits and we almost got to where we wanted. The demonstration is over," a member of the international group No to War - No to NATO, Rainer Braun told RIA Novosti.

A day after a horrifying shooting attack during a Black Lives Matter march in Dallas that saw five cops killed, Americans are rallying, taking to the streets of cities across the nation. In Baltimore, five people have reportedly been arrested.

Thousands have taken to the streets across the United States on Friday. Protests have been recorded in Atlanta, Baltimore and St. Louis, as well as Baton Rouge, Nashville, and Philadelphia, according to various social media posts.

​Authorities have reported that the rallies are largely peaceful and organizers are working with police. Baltimore is an exception, where five protesters were said to have been arrested in the downtown area. The five were reportedly detained after refusing to leave the street following a demand by law enforcement, according to local TV channel WBAL.

A bodycam video has resurfaced after two years showing the horrific scene of a Utah woman being handcuffed and beaten by a Salt Lake City officer as her daughter looks on. Authorities are now considering bringing charges against the retired cop.

The footage appears to have been found and posted by the woman's elder daughter, and emerged on YouTube on Tuesday. It immediately caused a stir both online and with the Salt Lake City police, whose chief issued a public statement on Wednesday, alleging that the matter was only brought to his attention after the video surfaced the previous day.

Four people were killed and five others wounded in the result of the demolition of unauthorized shopping complex in Meerut, India.

The incident occurred early on Saturday in the Sadar area, a popular shopping destination in Meerut.

The collapsed building had reportedly been a matter of dispute as it was illegally constructed on premises that belonged to the defense forces.

The High Court ordered the demolition of the four-storey mall after the Cantonment Board — administration body under control of Defence Ministry — filed a petition.

The man who began the chant reportedly came from the Lakota tribe: Tribal spokesman says man who started chanting is Greg Graycloud with the Lakota Tribe in South Dakota.

A debt resistance movement is rising from the realization that most debts are not fair

The legitimacy of a given social order rests on the legitimacy of its debts. Even in ancient times this was so. In traditional cultures, debt in a broad sense—gifts to be reciprocated, memories of help rendered, obligations not yet fulfilled—was a glue that held society together. Everybody at one time or another owed something to someone else. Repayment of debt was inseparable from the meeting of social obligations; it resonated with the principles of fairness and gratitude.

The moral associations of making good on one's debts are still with us today, informing the logic of austerity as well as the legal code. A good country, or a good person, is supposed to make every effort to repay debts. Accordingly, if a country like Jamaica or Greece, or a municipality like Baltimore or Detroit, has insufficient revenue to make its debt payments, it is morally compelled to privatize public assets, slash pensions and salaries, liquidate natural resources, and cut public services so it can use the savings to pay creditors. Such a prescription takes for granted the legitimacy of its debts.

Today a burgeoning debt resistance movement draws from the realization that many of these debts are not fair.

Most obviously unfair are loans involving illegal or deceptive practices—the kind that were rampant in the lead-up to the 2008 financial crisis. From sneaky balloon interest hikes on mortgages, to loans deliberately made to unqualified borrowers, to incomprehensible financial products peddled to local governments that were kept ignorant about their risks, these practices resulted in billions of dollars of extra costs for citizens and public institutions alike.

The Bahamas government Friday urged nationals to exercise caution if they intend on travelling to the United States following the shooting deaths of five police officers in Dallas on Thursday night.

The US authorities said that seven other police officers were shot and wounded as the lone sniper shot at white police officers in retaliation for the deaths of black people by police officers in recent days.

In a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said it had taken note of the recent tensions in some American cities over shootings of young Black males by policemen.

Protesters in Atlanta, Georgia marching against police brutality have shut down Interstate-75 and the northbound side of Interstate-85, where a large police presence is preventing them from advancing further. Meanwhile, in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, some arrests have been made in protests there.

Thousands of people rallied in Atlanta, Georgia and Baton Rouge, Louisiana on Friday to protest the recent police-involved deaths of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile, both African-American men, in Louisiana and Minnesota respectively.

Cleveland police on Friday tightened their security plan for the Republican National Convention after the deadly shootings of police officers in Dallas, increasing surveillance and intelligence operations just 10 days before the convention.

Other police departments across the country required officers to patrol in pairs rather than alone following the ambush in Dallas, the deadliest day for police in the United States since the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on New York and Washington.

In Cleveland, the attack raised another potential threat during the July 18-21 convention, when Donald Trump is expected to receive the Republican nomination for president.

The police officers' labor union, rank-and-file cops and some outside experts had already questioned Cleveland's preparedness for the convention with the city's police under federal supervision over use of force.

A Parker County jailer who had an apparent heart attack may very well be alive thanks to inmates who put themselves at risk to help him.

It happened on June 23 in a holding cell in the basement of the District Courts Building in Weatherford.

At least eight prisoners were behind a locked door in a small room off to one side. Their lone guard sat outside and had been joking with them when he slumped over unconscious.

"He just fell over," said inmate Nick Kelton. "Looked like an act. Could have died right there."

Kelton and other inmates began shouting for help. Then they managed to bust out of their holding room, even though they knew it was dangerous.
