Powerful writing and thanks for the link to Chris Hedges Sermon, incredible it made me cry. My threadbare comfort is that more are waking up to the violence and desperation of the dying empire . Then we will rise ❤️‍🩹

This article echoes my views completely; thank you. I detest the police and not just for their involvement in the brutal breaking up of peaceful protests.

It takes a certain type of persona for someone to wish to become a police officer. They want total control; they want others to fear them. A little violence would be fun for them as well.

Additionally I will never forgive the police for what they did NOT do for me back in the 70’s. I lived with an extremely abusive

man. My neighbors frequently called the police on my behalf, but the cops refused any involvement, saying that it was a “domestic situation”. I suffered broken bones and near death because of their refusal to discipline my partner.
