Maybe a little hope here–my son was brainwashed and pro-cop prior to the George Floyd incident and is now completely anti-cop. I worked on him for a few years, but this moment has convinced him that dad was right. This moment feels different to me and I think the cops are killing the golden goose with their tone deaf response to the outrage. The police are losing a large portion of an entire generation right now and I’m hopeful that this moment will bite them in the ass. I’m looking forward to the Seattle PD getting a huge budget cut when their next contract is up.
Seriously. You post like you know about a slow march and continuous struggle. Accept that. Leave the world a better place or at least do something to flatten the curve as it were. That’s the best that’s going to happen and it is what’s happening.
Molly is the best. I love her live tweets of local city council meetings (among many other things she tweets about), for someone that was never involved in things like that it was great seeing how stuff like that works
