    In the unlikely event anyone in law enforcement reads this: you do not have to participate in the arrest of peaceful protestors engaging in civil disobedience. At any time, you can be the first link in the chain of state violence to break and refuse to participate. Either prove the police unions truly protect their own or merely exist to perpetuate the immoral victimization of everyday people.

      In the likely event that a protestor reads this: stop walking away with them. Learn from the Civil Rights movement, make them carry you. A dead weight is a HELL of a lot harder to move, usually taking 2-4 guys.

        If I’ve learned anything from my toddler, you need to switch from dead weight, to totally rigid in a weird shape, as often as possible.

      Lol the police didn’t become the police to protect or stand up for anything. They chose that to have power over people.

    Law enforcement is such a pile of pigs. What else can we say. I’ve never had s single instance where I was glad the police were there.

    Man. What a weird world when old school homegrown kidfuckers are standing up to Nazis. It’s like watching a mosquito battle it out with the concept of stepping on a Lego.

    I read 100 priests arrested and thought “holy shit, are we seeing justice finally arrive?” and then realized no, we’re not.
