Right now, our options are to keep calling, joining in both nationally organized protest, giving money to the DNC and NC Democratic Party to continue to build the infrastructure to defeat these loons, and engage in legal (for now) 'vigilante' actions on our own. The LAST thing we need to do is be silent.
And today I read that law enforcement officers at the LA protests shot two foreign journalists — one an Australian TV news reporter, the other a British photographer — with non-lethal rubber bullets. Observers claimed the officers aimed directly at the journalists. In other words, intentionally. The photographer required surgery to repair his wound. Australian officials are not happy; one directly blamed the Felon-in-Chief, I imagine only because he’s guilty as charged. Direct assaults on foreign journalists, right here in the good ol’ US of A. That right there is next-level stuff. Are we having fun yet?
A fascinating time to be alive. It takes time for (cliche’) chickens to come on home to roost. In the case of our nation, THE UNITED STATES of ‘MERIKA, this nation never faced up to capture of AFRICANS and forced these people onto the bowels of ships. And you know the rest. This nation. never atoned. We whitewash. We choose not to know the hard shit. Our roots are casually known for reality. Our nation’s seeds are poisoned. People don’t like to know or accept truths. So ever how many centuries later, old poisoned seeds are sprouting. It’s not grumpy, trumpie, skunkie. Our history never rooted out the ugly. Here we are. Ugly doesn’t’ win. But we have lived in the nuclear age a long time. And we act like that changes nothing. Prople live right on along as if….. We’re not in a good place if a loser gets hot and decides to blow the flame 🔥 .
Mr. Mills, you seem shocked, shocked, and appalled that your Republican neighbors are fascist SOBs. How quaint. You almost had it right when you brought up the South's response to integration but then you threw in the "states' rights" BS and spoiled it all. The Republicans are the Party of White people, and White claiming to be Christians are preferred. That is the whole sheebang Ton, racism in its purist form. Please, start calling them by the names they've earned, not the names they prefer.

Thank you Thomas!
