It is not your duty to finish the work, but neither are you free to abandon it
It can be a hard pill to swallow but you have to accept that while you will prevail in this struggle, you may not be there to witness it.
Nonviolence is, in fact, working. This administration is weaker than it was a year ago. More and more of the public is becoming galvanized against it; its agents are being impeded.

Imagine what’s happening in the camps.
Imagine how much they’d be lying about what happened without all the videos showing it from multiple angles.

Protesters flooded the intersection of Nicollet Avenue and W. 26th Street in south Minneapolis, near where Alex Pretti was fatally shot by federal agents Saturday morning.

This is correct. MN officials are the ones appealing for calm. The White House is demanding obedience.
Pritzker: "An American president should be standing up, calling for calm. That's not what this president ever does. In fact, he wants the temperature to go up. Why? Because what he's looking for is an excuse to invoke the Insurrection Act, to bring actual troops into American cities."

/3 In this moment of horror, look at the people of MN. They’re not an army. Few are trained for urban combat, through there are many veterans. They are young and old and rich and poor. They are standing up at great personal danger, defying a despicable Gestapo government and its vile apologists.

a few thousand men with guns cannot defeat a state of six million united. they can only defeat us if we first defeat ourselves. that's why staying peaceful, not shooting back, and not rioting are so important. calling for violence is wrecker shit

Does anyone have a link to a good explainer about how to make sure iPhones and Androids are uploading to the cloud while people are monitoring government activity? Seems important.

it is correct for state officials to call for peace, they should not encourage extralegal violence

but the best way to convince people that extralegal violence is not a good option is to enforce laws against the murderers killing their friends, family, and neighbors
they've been given verbal immunity from the Vice President and practical immunity from the FBI

if state laws won't be enforced then there's no laws left, and the only options left on the table at that point are not ideal

A magistrate judge found no probable cause to support arrest warrants for 5 people involved in the St. Paul church protest.

DOJ appealed to the 8th Cir.

That appeal led to this remarkable letter from the Chief Judge of the Minnesota district court…

Rachel Sayre, Minneapolis Emergency Management Department manager, just compared what she is seeing in MN to what she saw in Yemen, Haiti, Syria, Iraq, Ukraine, in international humanitarian response, "a violent entity terrorizing people", in the press conference right now

BREAKING: Trump’s thugs just shot and killed a man in Minneapolis. Eyewitnesses are describing it as an execution.

We cannot keep living like this and people can’t keep dying like this. Stop funding DHS. Impeach Kristi Noem. Hold these agents accountable.

Watching this in particular. The effort to take witnesses to Whipple, as well as the police refusing to leave the scene, are key.
Per this report ICE has detained several witnesses
ICE attempted to order local police from the scene of the Minneapolis shooting, but the police chief refused and instructed his officers to preserve the crime scene.

unfortunately it appears that things are really complicated and getting the details matters a lot, sometimes more than anything, and also evil is extremely real. sorta the worst of both worlds there.
Me my whole life: Nothing is black and white. You have to consider nuance

Now: We face a heinous, remorseless evil
