So catchy!

That’s where I’m from!

In total, the National Guard members and Marines operating in Southern California have carried out exactly one temporary detainment.

I fucking hate clickbait headlines.

I respect that

Why would you not care about the truth here? That seems incredibly irresponsible.

It sounds like you assume it’s pointless without instant results. Overtaking buildings and doing anything even in the grey area of legal would be a step back.

I was impressed how many people showed up to their first protest ever yesterday. My 67 year old dad went to his first protest yesterday. My non-political, never voted friend went to their first protest yesterday. It brought out a new group of people to stand up.

Because no one is illegal on stolen land.

I get the message, but it really makes it sound like you’re allowed to steal land and get away with it. Which I guess you can get away with it if you’re white taking the land from someone darker than you.

What are you quoting in your comment?

First of all I learned a lot reading that article. It’s a great read that slings me toward more like it. But today the term MIA represents to those I know representing it that they have ones that never returned for whatever reason. The flags are still flown not because they think they’re still held captive, not because they have any opinion on the politics, not because they care about the history of the term, but because they don’t want to stop remembering those lost. It sucks it may cause people to think they’re sheep for believe the propaganda behind the term. They’re just trying to cope with losing a loved one for a reason no one can comprehend.

The flags being flown long after the end lean more on the MIA part. I had never heard about POWs being held into the 1990s; WWII had a lot of those stories though.

If you think EVERYBODY believes that shit you may need to surround yourself with other people.

You named a cat after a McDonald’s menu item? That’s a bold play.
