now thinking about Obama calling NBA teams to end their wildcat strike in the wake of George Floyd’s murder because I guess he’d cycled through everything on Netflix at that point of the pandemic

Refusal of the symbolic barriers of the state! Sorry to harp but it's very important while being very simple
People have removed police tape, now surrounding the crime scene with branches and sticks.

Norm isn't the Mayor of Minneapolis but he's doing more than the Mayor of Minneapolis and he's willing to give up more than the Mayor of Minneapolis so if we ever get back to voting again, we need to remember who deserves to lead and who should pay for allowing this to happen
Only speaking personally, but today’s execution isn’t scaring me from protecting our neighbors, as some suggest is ICE’s goal. Nor am I angry with incandescent rage, in that I know such rage is unhelpful. Rather, I feel like it has forced me to truly accept that the same fate might befall me.

It’s good the Wolves-Warriors game has been postponed but I would love if this led to a strike amongst NBA players. Obama helped dampen any chance of one last time in 2020 and things are so much worse now.

The Timberwolves-Warriors game in Minneapolis has been postponed by the NBA, sources tell ESPN, in wake of a man shot and killed Saturday in a confrontation with federal agents in the city. It's the second shooting there in a week, third this month, involving a federal officer.

It seems clear Alex Pretti, a healthcare worker, was murdered for engaging in the exact kind of community care we hope all care workers to embody: the kind that doesn’t stop at the threshold of the hospital, the clinic, but that aims to care for and support the community where and how they can

Finally the porch couch is a force for good
People are definitely setting up a barricade of trash cans and this couch, in the middle of the street where ICE is.
"That's my couch," said a woman standing nearby. "It's been on my porch for four years because it won't fit up the stairs. My neighbor will be pleased it's gone now."

yes it is and it’s very telling that you think it’s “important” to say this stupid shit right now
I think it's important to make the point that this is *not* policing.

Personally I've moved so far past anger at most Dem politicians in this moment beyond a couple local exceptions. Disdain & contempt are the closest terms. Just fundamental inability to rise to the moment while refusing to get out of the way for someone who might.

Once again: Focusing on their lack of training is a mistake. With "better training," their violence would simply cost more, and they would still kill whoever they wanted, but make it look more professional — to make people more comfortable, the way many of you are at ease with local police violence.
