“cops aren’t trained to-“ “oh but police need resources” “if only law enforcement had-“ NAH. We did training and courses and body cams and consent decrees. For decades. And here we are. Policing is an institution devoid of worth and plagued through with rot.

We’re at the literal-actual Armed Forces being deployed into cities stage of fascism. The regular Armed Forces weren’t even used in the ‘92 riots, and this isn’t even close to that.

If you have an unread copy of Let This Radicalize You lying around, this would be an excellent time to read Chapter 6: “Violence” in Social Movements. It's also a good time to share that chapter with others.

Don't wear goggles to a protest unless they're rated shatter resistant. You're better off with NO eye protection than eyewear that will send shards of plastic into your eye. If you can't find shatterproof goggles, get lacrosse goggles. Cheap and effective eye protection from larger munitions.

The "locations where protests against these functions are occurring or are likely to occur based on current threat assessments and planned operations" is jumping out at me.

Tomorrow they’re better be massive protests nationwide or we will not be doing this right.

A lot of the footage you have been seeing even if it’s coming from other accounts has come from Sean and if you can, please shoot him some mutual aid funds as he just got shot in the head with a tear gas canister it appears.

USIan police have been "militarized" since the 70s. Militarization is not the main problem. US policing itself is the issue.

It was never a slogan. It was an actionable demand. And the people who complained simply did not want to defund policing. It's simple.

Wrote this in the summer of 2020, definitely a good sign to be dusting it off now. "Less lethal" weapons are tools of colonial occupation marketed to police, and tools of police marketed to colonial soldiers. Anti-civilian weapons more than "less-lethal" www.scientificamerican.com/article/what...

One thing is for certain after this week: Local cops in sanctuary cities—Minneapolis, Los Angeles, Chicago, New York—are working in lock step with DHS and ICE.

What we witnessed here on Tuesday in Minneapolis and what we are seeing now in Los Angeles we are going to see replicated in every blue city and blue state in the country because the federal government is at war against democratic power and the states.

Los Angeles: if you get tear gas or see other people who have been and someone calling themselves a medic tries to use milk to wash their eyes out SLAP THAT MILK JUG OUT THEIR FUCKING HAND. MILK DOES NOT WASH OUT TEAR GAS. Just use bottled water please.

It should be very very clear now that the acceleration this week in sanctuary cities and blue states is a reaction to miller not getting his coveted Nazi terror attacks at the scale he wanted. It should also be clear the point is terror and chaos both for the public and blue state officials.
