Y’all can understand a white kid shooting up a school cuz he was bullied after 4 months of school but don’t understand why an oppressed group is compelled to burn shit down after 400yrs
I’ve written 5 books on national security, covering every President since Truman. This is the most reckless thing I’ve ever read written by a US President.
“Any difficulty and we will assume control but, when the looting starts, the shooting starts. Thank you!”
—President Trump
1) Don't feel obligated to defend property--especially corporate "private"property. Before confronting someone or contacting the police, ask yourself if anyone is being hurt or endangered by property "theft" or damage. If the answer is "no", then let it be
2) If something of yours is stolen and you need to file a report, consider going to the police station instead of bringing cops into your community. You may inadvertently put someone in your neighborhood at risk
3) If you see someone pulled over with car trouble, stop and ask if they need help of if you can call a tow truck for them. Police may give punitive and unnecessary tickets to people with car issues, target those without papers, or worse
4) Keep a contact list of community resources like suicide hotlines. When police are contacted to "manage" such situations, people with mental illness are 16 times more likely to be killed by cops than those without mental health challenges
5) Check your impulse to call the police on someone "suspicious". Is their race, gender, ethnicity, class, or housing situation influencing your choice? Such calls can be death sentences for many people
