Things that I'm sure are totally unrelated to our covid concerns: Patience, protests, picnic weather. Citizen Times: COVID-19 has not yet peaked in Buncombe, officials say

Overheard: I work at #Asheville Cardiology and it's getting rough in there with the number of #COVID patients we have. ....*moves even further away*

Per @DePasqualePA, PA spent $1 BILLION since 70s on #deathpenalty. Only $6 Mil led to executions. @NC_Governor @NCCourts @JusticeCBeasley let's #defundthedeathpenalty in #northcarolina. #ncpol #https://www.paauditor.gov/Media/Default/Reports/RPT_CJR_060920_FINAL.pdf

Fun to be reminded of Lin Ostrom's research on policing. As was often the case, her findings upset the conventional wisdom.

[Tonya Maxwell @factsbymax]

If you #defundthedeathpenalty @NC_Governor, you'll save NC serious $$$, the courts wont be clogged w those RJA claims, and you'll eliminate one of the most glaringly racist institutions we have. Win. Win. Win. You're welcome.

@PeteKaliner @asheville Glad you enjoyed it. It's near 20 years I've been waiting to tell that story.

@SteveHinnefeld @ToddYoungIN I also like clean water but dont want to pay for it from the city. I chose the ultimate freedom by only drinking from streams. I've only had giardia twice this year. Totally worth not drinking that socialist water.

This is a big strike against racism and the death penalty in NC. https://t.co/GdC0BVuZBa

With Medford's death, I finally am able to tell a story of murder and mayhem I've wanted to tell for a long time. Citizen Times: With marches, Medford and a murder remain relevant #ncpol #avlnews

#Asheville Police Cheif David Zack holds a yellow carnation as he speaks to organizers outside of the APD. They’re talking solutions.
Hard to express how different this scene is from recent evenings. #avlnews

Curfew runs 8pm to 6am in @CityofAsheville until lifted by @EstherManheimer. Emergency personnel, media, some others exempt. Class 2 misd for violations. Citizen Times: City announces curfew after destructive protests

Asheville Art Museum has been tagged. Seemingly only one window broken.

@CaseyBlakeAVL Be safe, Casey.
