Detroit’s protest was peaceful until the sun went down, according to reports. But after that, there were fights and arrests, and one man was shot and killed in a drive-by, but it’s being said no police were involved.

He’ll be a statue someday, perhaps sooner than he expected.
His title is fake and so is he. He’s just another wypipo upset because his granddaddy used to own people and he can’t anymore.

Portland Commissioner Jo Ann Hardesty at press conference about the protests last night, telling off one of the local news channels for showing pictures of the same two black men during all their coverage of the looting, when almost all of the people who did the damage and looting were skinny white guys: “You are part of the problem.”

Wow. That was something else.
It’s horrifying watching this play out from over here but enough is enough, things have to change. I really hope it does lead to systemic change but given your current white supremacist government…
Also quite surreal to watch the spacex launch at the same time and seeing how we can work together for something better, i can’t help but note the parallels to 1969 and the moon launch during the height of vietnam.
