Alonzo Franklin was wrongfully convicted in 1995, and has fought for years in court to introduce gun residue evidence to prove his innocence. FREE ALONZO FRANKLIN! FREE THEM ALL!

Use the script on slide two to call in and build the pressure on Pritzker to do what’s right, and comment on this post when you’ve called. Justice delayed is justice denied!

It is clear that the corporate media, the Democrats, and unfortunately some forces in the progressive people’s movement are capitulating instead of fighting back.

But the point I want to make is about their use of the same tactics and strategies for creating a moral and political climate conducive to political terrorism.

"Historically the only thing I think that we can compare this with is the burning of the Reichstag in Germany right before Hitler took power. That is not to say that I think that the fascist movement in Germany and the Trump-led movement in the United States are historical twins.
