GLASHEEN: Antifa is our primary concern right now. That's the most immediate violent threat we're facing

BENNIE THOMPSON: Where is antifa headquartered?

GLASHEEN: ... ... ... we are building out the infrastructure right now

THOMPSON: What does that mean?

Since Steven Miller ignores the constitution, we should too. When we get the power back, he should be put in the public stocks for beatings and pelting with rotten fruit. Prove us wrong.

More pushing, shoving, “less lethal” projectiles towards the crowd that was assembled at Metro Detention Center. Protesters were as far as I can tell peaceful outside of remaining in the area (but were attempting to leave) until the charge from horse mounted units.

Absolute chaos resulting from LAPD charge using batons, horse mounted units, “less lethal” projectiles. Protesters going in every direction. LAPD themselves don’t seem to know where protesters or press are supposed to be.

Video from earlier when horses ran through the crowd. Cops were swinging batons randomly at the crowd as well.

This time on Strangers and Live Like the World is Dying, we have our feature zine, "Pocket Guide to Conflict Mediation" by Casandra. Conflict happens, but it doesn’t have to be a disaster, and like we advise for disasters of all kinds, get prepared.

Like, what planet do you have to be on to think an openly white supremacist government is sitting around saying, “We need them to go protest so we can declare martial law.” PLEASE! They're going to do whatever they want, regardless. Everyone needs to understand how despots work.

Good news, with skepticism. A lot of what's outlined here is outlined in the law, 409.7. Also, LAPD doesn't see freelancers or independent journalist as "duly authorized" media. The bigger issue is the LAPD's indiscriminate use of rubber bullets and other chemical munitions altogether.
SoCal update:

US District Court Judge Hernán D. Vera issues temporary restraining order: LAPD cannot interfere with reporters, assault them or use so-called less-lethal munitions against them unless they pose threat

Nonviolent mass protests only work if they are sustained and not just one off every three months.

If you actually want your nonviolent movement to work, you can’t go back to work on Monday. You actually have to sustain the protest for months or until you oust the fascist leader.

Sent to me from a source who took this video yesterday who says LAPD pushed an unhoused person walking in the crosswalk. The fall caused the woman’s head to crack open. LAPD dragged and left her bleeding on the sidewalk, providing no medical care. The person a group of onlookers took her to the ER.

Is our current situation “peace”? What about the daily violence on display in Los Angeles?

We shouldn’t be shocked at this response + politicians don’t dictate how people in this city are going to act.
