As the death toll rises to 100, on our streets and while in detention, that we know of, I’m asking state leaders to please put their flags at half mast for victims of ICE.

Show us you care about humanity.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.
