I have spent hours looking through the files and some of the stories are absolutely disgusting. I am having such a hard time because so many citizens don't even know how awful they get and they aren't all even fully released... I am close to feeling like we need pitchforks, torches and shovels if this justice system won't actually do anything... He had a ranch where a witness wrote in saying there are TWO bodies located on the property and they haven't even reported that in the media. I'll link that one below too. It's just so... Horrible. We can't just pretend this doesn't exist... but idk what happens next for the United States and the world. It's not something a country just moves on from.

I saw my naivete during the George Floyd protests when state police came to my city with blacked out badges and punisher masks.
They are HEAVILY armed.
It's a nice sentiment for garden tools but you need actual firearms. Regrettably, I've yet to go to a major protest since trump has been in office. Somewhat a relief since we know now they are using footage to put protesters in terroist databases. If you aren't going to protests even partially in black bloc you are ill prepared. If you aren't arming yourself you are ill equipped.
I hope this ends, yet I have zero faith in peaceful protests to stop a fascist regime. I'm not saying don't protest, I am explicitly saying that force must be met in kind. When winter ends I anticipate things escalating and heating up a lot more.
