A Man Was Lynched Yesterday (Saturday)

good assessment.... William J. Barber, II and Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove

"...The masks. The lies. The celebration. These are the hallmarks of a lynching. They clarify what we are facing. These are not men who made a mistake. They are not law enforcement officers who need better training. These are people who have embraced a false moral narrative that tells them they are serving God, their families, and the cause of liberty when they murder a fellow American in the street....

These men will not be shamed into a gentler approach to their mission, nor will they be intimidated by the majority that is against them. However ill prepared they may be, they are executing their mission to force Americans to comply with the Trump regime, and thanks to the Big Deadly and Destructive Bill that passed Congress last summer, they have unprecedented resources to do it. They only way to stop a lynch mob is to build a moral movement that can reclaim the tools of government, hold people accountable for their crimes, and reconstruct a democracy committed to liberty and equality for all.
