Me: Man the Fall of Rome must have been intense, I can’t imagine being around for something like that. The complete collapse of a civilisation! Wild.

The boot lickers really like to correct two points:

Breonna Taylor was not sleep when she was shot: true, she was awoken by the battering ram used to crash her door in at 1am.

Police didn't shoot first: also true. Kenneth shot an officer in the leg when they entered and, naturally, because they're all scared incompetent knobs, they responded in a hail of bullets, eight of which entered Breonna.

The cops claim to have knocked and announced themselves. This is a lie. No neighbors heard them announce themselves. Furthermore, they obtained a no-knock warrant specifically for the sole purpose of carrying out a drug raid by catching a drug dealer off guard and forcibly entering without warning (such as a knock and announcement). They wanted that specific warrant so much they misrepresented evidence to a judge to get it. So they did all that and got a warrant saying they did not have to knock or announce themselves and then just went on ahead and did it anyway? Cause they're just so polite?

They were also in civilian clothing and either not wearing body cams or had them turned off. So I'm not even sure how their word was just taken on all that.

They have indicted ONE cop for something that had nothing to do with her murder, it was for endangering the lives of OTHER residents by opening fire inside of an apartment complex.

A reminder that the person they were looking for, Breonna's ex-boyfriend, was already in custody at the time they murdered her.

A reminder that the mail investigator or whoever they claimed to get a tip from to get the warrant said they lied.

A reminder that the cops submitted an almost blank report with blatant lies, including that Breonna was not injured.

A reminder the prosecution tried to get Breonna's ex-boyfriend to implicate her in his crimes in April, after they had killed her.

A reminder that because of Breonna's case, no-knock warrants are no longer allowed in Louisville (but they knocked right?)

A reminder that the city settled out of court for $12M in the wrongful death suit, so they possibly feared losing in court and paying more.

It baffles me how anyone still takes Economics seriously as a branch of science, like sometimes I'll tune in to NPR for a bit and catch a snippet of interview wherein someone who has supposedly spent their whole adult life studying systems of need, production, and distribution blithely proclaims that most of humanity living in abject, hopeless poverty is both Natural and Good, actually.

The liberal economist in our society occupies the exact same ideological niche as the Medieval priest who preached to the serfs that the king's authority came from God

[desperate-acts-of-capitalism]

If you have worked at a grocery store, you know how much food is simply thrown away. You know that they lock dumpsters full of perfectly edible food so the homeless can't get it.

If you have worked construction, you know the price of concrete. You know that a home can be built for pennies on the dollar.

Economics classes have to work incredibly hard to blame the poor for poverty, because it's incredibly obvious to anyone with half a brain that poverty comes down to who owns the land everything is built on.

Edit: this wasn't an official replacement, credit for the statue goes to the artist, Marc Quinn, who showed up with a team in the early hours of the morning and quickly installed the statue, then left before authorities could arrive

[resource-ids]

[id: Tweet by @ LeftWingSociety that reads: "The statue of slave trader Edward Colston has been replaced in Bristol this morning with a sculpture of Black Lives Matter protestor Jen Reid. Brilliant news #BlackLivesMatterUK".

There are also three photos of the sculpture, which depicts Jen Reid, a young Black woman with shoulder length natural hair, casual clothing and her fist raised in the Black Power pose. The first photo shows a woman, presumably Jen Reid, standing in front of the statue in the same pose. The other two photos show zoomed out views of the statue. End id.]
