One Of Breonna Taylor's Murderers Was Charged With Wanton Endangerment For Firing Into Her Neighbors'

one of breonna taylor's murderers was charged with wanton endangerment for firing into her neighbors' apartments. not for murderering a young woman in her home. but for property damage. no other charges were filed.

if you can, now would be a good time to donate to the Louisville bail fund. hundreds of protesters are currently marching with a long day ahead.

black lives matter.

Fuck colonizer holidays happy Indigenous Peoples day! I am currently living on the unceeded land of the Algonquin Anishinabe people. Learn about who’s land you’re on, donate to native-run orgs, and buy from native businesses! And in general, just please listen to native people, today and always.

People need to fully understand what RGB’s death means. It’s not just a vacancy on the supreme court that could be potentially filled by a conservative Justice - that’s an awful thought, but that’s not the main problem. 

The problem, is that this is EXACTLY the opportunity Republicans have been looking for for decades. If a conservative nominee is pushed through before the election, and I’m hoping it won’t but if it does, that will lead to a Republican majority in the Supreme Court. And you can bet your life, literally, that they will work to roll back every progressive law they can. 

The concept of a separation of church and state is already a joke in this country, but it will get so much worse. 

But more than that? Even if a nominee isn’t pushed through… 

The vacancy RGB left behind will motivate Republicans to come out to vote in droves. 

THAT is what everyone needs to understand. This is a once in a life time opportunity for the Republicans. You think you don’t want to vote for Biden because he’s not exactly who you want? Because he’s not progressive enough or liberal enough? 

What about all the Republicans who may not support Trump, but want a Republican majority on the Supreme Court? The ones who may not like him, but would be willing to deal with him for four more years if it means controlling the Supreme Court for the next 40?

It’s awful and unfortunate that RGB died so close to the election. Throughout her life she worked tirelessly to fight for equality. Don’t let her life be in vain. 

Now more than ever, it’s important to vote. Everyone. Down the entire ballot. 

I’m lucky enough to live in California, a historically Blue state. But those of my followers who live in Red states, you especially need to call your representatives in the Senate and tell them to postpone any nomination. Cite Mitch McConnell’s own actions in 2016. Anything you can do to add pressure. Remind them who they really work for: you, their constituents. 

We cannot give up the fight. We can’t. Your vote matters. If it didn’t, why would the GOP be trying so hard to take it away? Make sure you’re registered. If you want to mail in your ballot then drop it off at designated polling stations instead of the post office to ensure it’s counted in time. 

I don’t have many followers so I don’t know who will see this, but please, reblog this. Spread the information. RBG’s death will galvanize Republicans out to vote en masse. We can’t afford to be apathetic or disenfranchised. We can make a difference, but not if we don’t bother to try.

The mayor, police, and prosecutor lied about Adam Toledo being armed to justify that a CPD officer murdered a 13 year old who was unarmed and had his arms up (according to body cam footage released today but that I will not share). And the mayor has the audacity to ask for peace before releasing the video. Downtown is already closed. There is no reforming police, they are not an institution of public safety, all they can do is cause further harm.

They lied! In order to smear the name of a 13 YEAR OLD SEVENTH-GRADER the police killed!

Abolish police!

Rest in peace Adam Toledo.

Adam Toledo was murdered within seconds of his encounter with police. He was not armed. He had his hands up. He was innocent. He was a kid. And they shot him. And then the police lied to cover their asses. Now there's a video going around where you can see him get murdered. Please, out of respect of Adam and just basic human decency, do not watch the video.

I repeat: do not watch the video of police killing a 13 year old child.
