I knew White Claw is deadly but not in that way. I guess garbanzo beans can be considered a chemical agent if someone with IBS ate some.

Its funny because on one hand, I absolutely share this sentiment, but on the other, it’s AS likely or more that this is just trash they found on the ground. PPB have long used their twit feed to spread misinformation.

I don’t believe Wheeler just magically changed his mind about tear gas, either. I have nothing but anecdotal evidence to support my conclusion, but I’m pretty fucking sure we ran ‘em out of gas last night :grin::grin::grin: and that the order banning CS for 30 days is pure spin on the spineless wonders’ part.

this is some odd reporting:

He has also attended the same Kensington church for many moons.

regardless of the odd work choice, apparently this was all coronavirus’s fault.

Jezic shared that Brennan has no history of violence or harassing behavior. Instead, he believes his client’s mind was fogged by months after being cooped up inside his home, and the rush of an intense weekday workout.

dare i say this defense is looney?

If you are confronted with two evils, thus the argument runs, it is your duty to opt for the lesser one, whereas it is irresponsible to refuse to choose altogether. Those who denounce the moral fallacy of this argument are usually accused of a germ-proof moralism which is alien to political circumstances, of being unwilling to dirty their hands.

Politically, the weakness of the argument has always been that those who choose the lesser evil forget very quickly that they chose evil.

If the uprising fizzles out without achieving radical change, the aftermath will be brutal.

The cops (especially the FBI) will hunt down and seek vengeance on every identifiable protester, and the bipartisan ruling class will seek to entrench the police state to such a degree that no future uprising is possible.

This needs to end with a victory, not a compromise.

I wouldn’t have been surprised if PPB had run out of tear gas the first night. You could see it from Mt. Tabor, and all of downtown looked like one big cloud of it.
