⚠️ In October 2024, Arkansas father Aaron Spencer woke up at 1AM to find his 13-year-old daughter missing.
He suspected 67-year-old Michael Fosler.
Fosler had already been charged with 43 counts of sexually abusing her.
Spencer tracked them down and forced Fosler’s truck off the highway… he then confronted Fosler, pulled out his gun, and shot him multiple times.
Fosler died instantly.
He then got his daughter to safety and called 911.
Spencer was charged with murder, but the case was dismissed this month.
WWII Veteran and Purple Heart recipient Robert Hilliard:
"Next week I'll be 101 years old. In February 1944 when I was 18 years old I was inducted into the army and what they taught me to do there was to kill people who set up detention camps. Can you imagine how I felt earlier this year when they announced that one of the future detention camps would be at that same camp landing in Florida? We have a fascist, a fascist government, that allows innocent people to be put in detention camps and incarcerated."

A guy I know lost both parents to a drunk driver. He got custody of his 3 siblings and had to drop out of uni to work and take care of them.
He used to joke a lot, always outside, always laughing. After it happened, he barely talked. Just always looked tired.
If this law had been in place it would have eased his burden a bit.
Our daughter, Rachel Corrie, was killed in 2003 in Gaza, while trying to protect a Palestinian home facing illegal destruction by the Israeli military. She was 23 years old. The massive, armored Caterpillar D-9 bulldozer that crushed her was operated by two Israeli soldiers and manufactured in the United States. It was the same type of militarized bulldozer that US presidents from George W. Bush through to Donald Trump have delivered to Israel.
Today, as the destruction of Palestinian homes has only become more commonplace, not to mention the horror of Israel’s genocide, Senator Bernie Sanders will force a vote in the Senate to try to end this cycle of death by banning the transfer of D-9 bulldozers to Israel. We hope he will not take this stand alone.
No policy can bring back those taken from us by these actions—children and other loved ones. But the Senate now has an opportunity to honor the memories of our daughter, other Americans, and thousands of Palestinian civilians killed, and to show that their deaths, and all the destruction, will no longer be condoned and funded. We hope those elected to represent us, the American people, understand the message that voting to block these D-9 bulldozers will send. This will not be a symbolic gesture, but a concrete step toward the protection of human life.

"Oh man, yet another high school student that invented a {insert way to fix something on the planet}, the new generation is amazing!"
You know what will come of that? Fucking nothing. Nothing will happen. Any fucking high school student that invents a novel way to do X or Y thing will either be assassinated by the CIA or have their projects shelved into a smelly office of a random teacher in some fuckass university, like fucking always.
