Larson's death is another grim reminder that when pedestrians or cyclists are hit by drivers, only in the most egregious and reckless cases are significant charges filed. Otherwise, it's seen as an "accident," and legal consequences and justice can be harder to come by.

Today Virginia resident Sophia Maltas was sentenced to 45 days in jail for hitting and killing 24-year-old Nina Larson as she was crossing Columbia Road NW in a crosswalk in November 2021. The sentencing hearing was emotionally wrenching and difficult.

They zip tied children.
“ABC7 spoke to Pertissue Fisher, a woman who lives in the building. She said ICE agents took everyone in the building, including her, and asked questions later….’They was bringing the kids down, too, had them zip tied to each other.’”
It can’t happen here, you say. But it is happening.

It certainly appears the United States murdered an innocent fisherman who was a husband and father to four children, claimed he was a "narco-terrorist," posted a video of the execution, and then made jokes about it

Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh not only has the temerity to justify discriminatory racial profiling of Latinos in America
Thereby giving Trump’s ICE goons license to detain people who look Hispanic or speak Spanish
He embellishes it with the arrogance of pure white privilege to boot

Not going to stop thinking about the comment that Trump is sending Confederate armies to occupy Northern cities.
How much more is there to say?
That’s not a “distraction.” It’s what the white supremacists who tried to secede have wanted for over a century. It’s not a distraction to them at all.

When a cabinet member announces "We are using the military to liberate an American city from its elected leaders," where do you go from there. What is left to say. The idea of that being anything short of a near-universal "Wait, what the fuck is going on" moment proves how far we've backslid.
