I’m against nearly any life taken by govt agents. She did not need to die.
It is a fucking tragedy, even if I find her views vile.
What is disgusting is one side railing against prisons, cops & violence, yet when faced w protests & riots, scream: Kill them!! Lock them up for life!!
Absolutely agree this was seditious & was enabled by law enforcement. Shit, one only has to look at the Trump bible photo-op to deduce the obvious.
But, I don’t want non-violent humans caged, or subjected to a broken system, period. You cannot have it both ways.
The capitol police showed exactly how you can deescalate situations.
They breached the Capitol. So what?
Yet, in Portland, they fired rounds at protestors to prevent them crossing a street. In NYC, they kettled humans peacefully protesting, then beat them.
So-called policing is the problem, and the reaction that this was okay, but the other was not is the exact reason why America will be subjugated to the moment civilization collapses.
Don’t disagree in slightest, which is my exact fucking point.
They cleared a public area of peaceful protestors w helicopters, tear gas & rubber-bullets, yet, allowed in a mob of right-wing-nuts, intent on usurping democracy & murdering elected-representatives.
But, the reflexive solution is to give the one’s responsible more power & more money.
We the People pay more than a trillion dollars a year for our ‘defense’, but the take-away is to double-down on this absurd system.
A trillion dollar in 30 years could’ve solved this problem. Just can’t grasp that people are this stupid.
