In Portland, OR protesters are making sure ICE gets no peace at the facility.

This is the post from the attorney he shot.

Idk if the LAPD has done anything yet or even will. He apparently shot the attorney twice in the groin.

The attorney posted about the event and they doxxed him and found out he had a history with the Aryan Brotherhood. I have his address and badge number too but don’t want to post it.

Ugh I just spent all that time getting a TikTok for you but I didn’t put the link I downloaded and listed the vid bc most people who don’t have TikTok don’t go to TikTok links.

Okay it took forever for them to start showing on my feed but here’s one of them. His name is Officer Rick Linton. He’s in trouble for shooting an unarmed attorney who asked why he removed all his identifying markers (name, badge number) so he got doxxed bc that was suspicious.

On the white supremacist? There’s vids on tiktok I can go find one of them he’s all over it.

Up North in Spokane, WA a large protest w/ police presence is under way. The streamer is too far away and all we hear is the crowd chanting “Let him go”.
comment in response to

At least one of the LAPD was identified as a member of the Aryan Brotherhood. A known white supremacist now wielding guns and a badge. He was recognized after he shot a rubber bullet at a man for asking for his name and badge number.

Police in LA are readying themselves for the curfew.

As well as familiarize yourselves with the routes you’re taking and keep eyes on exits.

It is always disheartening to see though. Cities change over years and NYC has come a long way from the 70’s and 80’s. But the cops have gotten worse somehow. And the media always takes the side of whatever police say has happened. As though cops can’t be biased.

I wish they’d just be honest and say hey it’s arrest time. Instead of feigning like the protesters chose to get arrested by not moving along.

They didn’t get out. NYPD completely blocked them then had the audacity to give them the illegal assembly please disperse order. I don’t like NYPD for these tactics. They gave the disperse warning after trapping them in. Disperse where?

Back in NYC a group of protesters have been kettled. They’re trying to keep marching but police are intent on arresting.
comment in response to
post
They’re unloading. It isn’t clear if they’ll simply close areas to let protesters through or try to stop them. There are a great deal of protesters and they’re moving not stopping. Police may just be trying to maintain control of which way the mass goes.

An entire convey of police cars head into the area.

The leader pickup blares This Is America by Childish Gambino as the crowd descends on downtown LA right smack in the middle of rush hour traffic.

Not far away the huge protest march has made its way down 5th street. It’s massive.

Meanwhile a shooting has caused part of Seattle’s downtown to be taped off and the suspect is still at large. If there’s a protest no one is showing it due to the shooting.

I hope you’re right but they’re not looking let alone even chanting or anything. They’re just going about as though the police aren’t there. Like I said it’s a mixed bag of good and bad. Normalizing for some and not engaging for others.

Both CHP and the few protesters are smiling and looking at him like he’s a moron.
comment in response to
post
A man stops his truck in the middle of the road to yell about protesters blocking roads and highways, but he is actively blocking two lanes of traffic and three city buses behind him are laying on their horns. Republicans don’t recognize irony.
comment in response to
post
Californians seem disinterested. Once in awhile they yell something but mostly ignore police all over their landscape. On one hand this means not much will happen. On the other it means they’re adjusting to something that shouldn’t be normalized: militarized zones.

But back in LA a skirmish line of CHP appears. This crowd isn’t large. In fact this area is just people passing by. CHP doesn’t want anyone going on the freeways like over the weekend.

In NY at City Hall, protesters and speakers meet up under heavy police presence and the metal crowd control fences are still everywhere.

Not far from that one another much larger protest is on the march. They have awhile as LA’s curfew isn’t until 8pm. It is only 5:30, rush hour.

A small protest heads through China Town in LA. Their chant similar “No justice, no peace. Fuck Trump and fuck the police”.
comment in response to

Their energy does help though as Raleigh finishes a fuck the police chant. A good sized crowd.

And not all vandals strike in the night.
I am tired already. I’m heading into the feeds. It’s too late to drink more coffee.
comment in response to
post
Even if it looks no different than fairgrounds or festivals, the politics is why they aren’t allowed to keep gathering. In hopes of less vandalism. But it really doesn’t matter. In the end it’s still oppression of rights. Not everyone is a vandal.

Tonight there will be violence again on our streets as authorities tell Americans when they aren’t allowed to protest anymore. A curfew for free speech and assembly.

It is just a matter of finding a judge who will agree Trump can do something no other president would’ve dare attempt let alone get away with. One moment he can’t take hundreds of thousands of people away, the next moment a judge says he can. We are failing in every way. A historical disaster.
comment in response to
post
Even judges try in vain to stop a rogue leader from violating all we thought was foundational and even sacred. What is the point of needing an Insurrection Act or Martial Law when it appears they’ll find a way to do it all to us without them.

We are now a nation demanding papers like WWII Germany. A dystopian hellscape where one moment we are sure something is illegal and the next we are being told they found a loophole and our rights are gone again like they never existed. We begin to wonder what the laws are for if they don’t hold.

In case you’ve lost count, it’s day 6. Six days and soon nights of American towns crying for justice and being beaten down at sunset.

Another day has protests continuing nationwide with a nice one in Raleigh, NC.
But I dread the evenings now as police decide to end things with violent oppression and clear abuse of authority. The attack hours loom.
Trump’s America is the ugliest version I’ve seen in my 53 years on this planet.

Not police lines. Trump skirmish lines.

I’m really serious that it should be called Trump raids. Trump forces. Trump arrests. Trump attacks. Trump vans. Trump alerts. Trump brutality.

@rollingstone.com released this story on it about 4 hours ago. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

And yet another dark story comes in as a pregnant US citizen is hospitalized after being detained by ICE. She’s clearly traumatized. She tried to shield her stomach but experienced pain after ICE released her. She is 9 months pregnant.

And we then eat them anyway because they’re cookies. We chew and cry at the same time.
