“If somebody comes to the door saying they are a police officer call 911 to confirm. Brooklyn police officers have been told only to approach people in pairs.” They do not have anyone in custody at this time.

the police chief says the gunman is driving a vehicle that looks like an SUV squad car, has lights, the man is wearing a vest, a taser, "a badge that looks like mine - no question if they were in this room, you'd think they're an officer"

Not great that all of the descriptions of someone “impersonating” law enforcement are just descriptions of what law enforcement are currently doing in our streets

make sure someone who won’t be at the protest knows where you are. memorize their phone number. remember that cops can lie to you and you always have the right to remain silent. remember that jail calls are recorded and transport vans & holding cells may be, too.

i want you to practice saying it. “i am invoking my right to remain silent and will not answer questions without an attorney present.” say it out loud. it sounds so simple but when the moment comes, you forget. you’ll be stressed, scared, confused, & want to explain yourself. don’t. it won’t help.

I want to point out that this image is a confirmation that the trump administration is now breaking federal law and the posse commitatus act. We are at war and you need to wake up. This is it.

The republicans have declared war against America and now that boots are on the ground it will become almost impossible to remove them especially as they spread and they will over the next few days and weeks. Americas democratic cities are seen as enemy land to be conquered by force.

I’ve never heard of Culver’s root before. It looks neat. I’m going to have to find a place for some in my garden.

As SCOTUS said in Houston v. Hill: The "freedom of individuals verbally to oppose or challenge police action without thereby risking arrest is one of the principal characteristics by which we distinguish a free nation from a police state." www.thefire.org/supreme-cour...

It’s the same thing in my garden.
