In relation to this, thinking about a new community for Political Activism. Calls to action, that kind of thing.

The rules would be super simple:

  1. Purpose is for protest organizing. [Country, City, State]

  2. Absolutely no calls for violent action.

  3. No links to fundraisers. Too rife for fraud and abuse. Stories about fundraisers would be fine, but no GoFundMes, etc.

Think there’s room for PolticalActivism?

    He did when he engaged the vehicle instead of allowing them to leave the scene when ordered.

        That’s not true, she was told to leave, right up until shooter decided she shouldn’t.

        Again, this is all ICE instigated, it’s not self defense.

          She shifted to drive and moved forward and the car hit the ICE agent, that was what caused the tragedy. Clearly self defense.

                  The SUV clearly moved toward the ICE agent as he fired, and the camera jerks at the same moment — while it’s not 100% visually confirmed, multiple angles suggest he was struck or at least hit by the force of the car.

                    No, it didn’t. The wheels were cranked all the way over to the right, the agent was standing in front of the drivers side headlight, so when the car pulled forward, it was turning away from him.

                    We know this because only the first shot went through the windshield, the others went through the open drivers side window.

                    So as the vehicle turned away from him, and he was firing, one hit the very edge of the windshield, the others went through the open window, killing her.
