No more than a few weeks ago, that would be an utterly ridiculous question to which any sane person would answer, “This is the USA, the police would never fire on innocent civilians.”
But just take a look at what’s happened here in this country over the last month and you’ll understand that this is not such an absurd question anymore.
Pepper spraying an elderly holocaust survivor.
Shooting a veteran at point blank range.
Pepper spraying students.
It’s nut such a stretch at all to see all this turning real ugly, real fast. Remember Kent State. Kinda ironic huh, the country that brought us Freedom and Civil Rights and Civil Justice is becoming associated with violent suppression of free speech and political expression.
And this is just the very beginning….it certainly ain’t going away easy……
