You don’t say anything about the jumping to conclusions on the Dillard case. I’m waiting for the official report to come out. My question is whether proper police procedure was used. There was no crime in process. If you or I were parked in a bus stop, would we have been ordered out of the car?

Good article but don't forget much of the pro-Gaza collective is opposed to the rise of Cop Cities, so don't be surprised if this gathers steam.

Cop City in ATL has gotten a lot of pushback. Curious to see what happens next. BLM has petered out so much in NY.

Councilmember Alexa Aviles has remained active in police accountability, most recently with the How Many Stops act and the case of Allan Feliz.

This is where eventually "identity" politics leads to. If it was a black man BLM would be out in force.

It only divides everyone into their tribes and if it was a white male no one would give a fuck, and this would not even make the news. It's the opposite of Dr MLK was all about. We should be caring for all

unjust acts for everyone not just our favorite "community."
