@KamalaHarris said racism was a national security issue. She was absolutely correct and we're seeing that play out both in today's coup attempt and the complicity of many police caught on camera aiding and abetting the coup. But there's a more obvious indicator....
Arrests... 127 arrested after #BlackLivesMatter protests over #BreonnaTaylor in Louisville. Good found a way to snatch and physically harm more than that...
Over 165 people protesting #jamesblake being shot 7 times in the back by a cop were arrested in Kenosha. In only a day or two of protests
50 people protesting the release of Officer Derek Chauvin, the man who suffocated #GeorgeFloyd for 8 minutes on national television, we're arrested in one day by Minneapolis police
And yet...THOUSANDS of mostly white people attempted a violent overthrow of the government in broad daylight.... Only 33 arrested. THIS is how white supremacy will kill what's left of this country. When an armed coup results in fewer arrests than a #BlackLivesMatter March
