FIJA has long supported jury nullification around victimless crimes, to say nothing of "crimes" that are just trivial violations of 2nd amendment rights. It's encouraging to see grand juries are waking up and rejecting government overreach.

Prosecutors moved to dismiss a criminal complaint against the couple but have not ruled out new charges.

Explain to me why “conversion therapy” is banned in 28 countries and ABA is not, when they have the same creator (O. Ivar Lovaas) and utilize similar if not identical principles, techniques, and goals (forced assimilation).
Autism $peaks is the largest and most popular Autism organization (among allistics), who continues to be 100% in support of ABA. They have lobbyists who push ABA as the “gold standard Autism treatment.” It utilizes same practices as “conversion therapy,” which is currently banned in 28 countries.
ABA (Applied Behavioral Analysis) is the “gold standard” of “treatment” for Autism, and was created by the person as “Conversion therapy” (see Lovaas) with similar techniques and goals. It’s torture that continues to have widespread support and acceptance.

Everything in this event has been sycophantic nonsense and officials lying repeatedly about what's happening in DC, but this part is actually newsworthy. Trump is saying he intends to send the National Guard to other cities after LA and DC. Not hypothetically.
Trump on DC: "We haven't had to bring in the regular military, which we're willing to do if we have to. And after we do this, we'll go to another location and we'll make it safe also ... Chicago is a mess. And we'll straighten that one out probably next"

Large and loud #FreeDC street party in DC tonight. Trump's claim to be joining "patrol" never materialized.

Everyday sees continued mobilization, protests, rapid response organizing, and mutual aid activity.

"But that one of the symbols of local resistance would be a man launching a sandwich is about as unexpected as things get. (That being said, a group of men dumping tea into a harbor did help inspire the Revolutionary War.)"

How a thrown sandwich became a symbol of D.C.’s resistance
In an already surreal moment, Washingtonians have embraced bread puns, sandwich flags, and sub-themed street art as a form of protest.

Jury nullification has a radical history in the United States.

In the 1850s, juries across the North repeatedly acquitted defendants accused of violating the Fugitive Slave Act.

Today, when all can see the authoritarian trajectory of the state, this tool should be at everyone's disposal.
