“These unprecedented tactics – which even the former top lawyer of the Department of Homeland Security in the first Trump administration has characterized as embarrassing, lawless and cruel – have now resulted in the fatal shootings of two U.S. citizens,” the Obamas said.
The Obamas accused the Trump administration of “escalating” the tension in Minneapolis by offering the public explanations of the shootings of Pretti and Renee Good “that aren’t informed by any serious investigation – and that appear to be directly contradicted by video evidence.”
There have been sooo many wake up calls. The alarm has been blaring for a decade, and most people keep hitting snooze. The bus is long gone, and you’ve missed so many days, you’re going to be expelled. Final exams are today. Try not to show up in your underpants.
No one really cares until the victims look like them. Now that it’s 2 white people it’s the time to care
You’re right, and that’s fucking disgusting.
I’ll take it, though. It’s better than never.
People still don’t care. Jack shit is being done about any of this.
There’s a general strike, but we gotta get the billionaires scared (or get rid of them) if we want change.
I’d argue in this situation waking up yesterday would be a lot better than waking up today, but also better next week then next year. The more people get awake the bigger the critical mass needed to turn this shit around.
